The action came into effect on Monday at 12 midday and Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Limited said that efforts were underway to restore access, according to an SPDC statement seen by Reuters on Wednesday.
Nigeria relies on oil exports for some 90% of its foreign exchange and more than half its budget.
