Oil giants feel heat in Nigeria

Shell said three more of its workers have been hurt in Nigeria, one seriously, and another oil company, Chevron, reported it too has been caught up in a local Nigerian political dispute. Shell said more than 120 of its staff and contractors were still being held by the villagers who overran six oil-flow stations in the western Niger Delta on Saturday. Reuters - London
