South Sudan says north released oil shipment
JUBA : North Sudan has released a 600,000 barrel oil shipment of South Sudan held earlier over failed customs duties
JUBA: North Sudan has released a 600,000 barrel oil shipment of South Sudan held earlier over failed customs duties, a southern official said on Saturday.
"Now the shipment has left, the 600,000 barrels," David Loro Gubek, undersecretary at the ministry of energy and mining, told Reuters.
North Sudan said on Friday the crude cargo had been held at its oil export port, Port Sudan because the south had failed to pay custom duties.
