  • A Federal High Court in Lagos was
    On Monday forced to adjourn continuation of hearing until November 15 in a suit filed by the federal government against Shell Western Supply and Trading Limited over
    alleged crude oil shipment worth $406.8 million.


    economist.comThe suit, filed by the federal government counsel,
    Fabian Ajogwu, has Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Limited
    (SPDC) and its subsidiary - Shell Western Supply and
    Trading Limited as defendants.


    The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported that continuation of the trial was stalled yesterday
    following the absence of the judge, Mojisola Olatoregun, who was
    said to be attending a conference in Abuja.



    Similarly, a case before the same court involving the federal government and Agip, a subsidiary of oil giant Eni,
    which was also scheduled for yesterday, was also fixed for November 15 for hearing.




    The plaintiff is claiming the sum of $406.8 million from the defendants, representing the shortfall of money paid into the federal government account with
    the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
    The money is for the crude oil lifted in 2013 and
    2014.
    In a supporting affidavit, the federal government had accused the Anglo-Dutch company of not declaring or under declaring crude oil shipments
    during the period.


    It said it was discovered following a forensic analysis
    of bills of laden and shipping documents, adding that Shell cheated Nigeria
    of the revenue.
    According to the affidavit, the consortium of experts tracked the global movements of
    the country’s hydro-carbons, including crude oil and gas.



    It identified the companies engaged in the practices that led to missing revenues from crude
    oil and gas export sales to different parts of the world.

    It also revealed discrepancies in the export records from Nigeria with the import records at United
    States ports.


    The plaintiff averred that the undeclared shipments
    between January 2013 and December 2014 brought the total
    value of the entire shortfall to $406.75 million.
    The defendants were said to have failed to respond to a federal government letter through its legal representative, seeking
    clarification on the discrepancies.


    The federal government is, therefore, seeking a
    court order to compel the two companies to pay $406.8 million being the total value of the missing revenue and interest payment at 21 per cent per annum.

    In addition, the government is also asking Shell to pay general exemplary damages in the sum of $406.75 million as well as
    the cost of the legal action instituted against it.


    The federal government had also sued Chevron, Total and Agip in a similar case before
    the court.
    It is asking for a total of $12.7 billion over alleged
    non-declaration of 57 million barrels of crude shipped to the US between 2011 and 2014.

    The oil companies are among 15 oil majors targeted by the government for the
    recovery of $17 billion in deprived revenue.
