BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Recent pipeline attacks cost $2.4 million a day

January 22, 2016 Reprints

Recent attacks on Nigeria's pipelines have cost the country about 470 million Nigerian nairas ($2.4 million) daily in lost gas and electricity, reported Reuters.

The attacks on the Escravos Lagos Pipeline System have led to a loss of 160 million standard cubic feet per day of gas. The Ministry of Power, Works and Housing said that the attacks affected gas sales and as a result hit gas-fired power stations. Nigeria's state oil firm said that it had closed two of its four refineries due to crude supply problems following the attacks.
