Cabinda — A slight oil spill was last Thursday registered in the area of the Delta complex of the Cabinda offshore, due to a rupture in a pipeline.

Speaking to ANGOP, the director of public relations of Chevron, Humberto Baquissi, added that due to immediate correction measures the rupture was isolated in the early hours of Friday.

Humberto Baquissi confirmed the ongoing operation to clean the oil spilt in the affected areas.

He said that the spill does not compromise fishing activity, having considered hasty fisherman's decisions to paralyse their activities.

On his turn, the head of the provincial department of Agriculture and Rural Development, Fisheries and Environment, Daniel Tati Luemba, confirmed that he was notified by Chevron oil multinational about the spill at the ocean of northern Cabinda province.
