Ecopetrol Confirms Oil Leak on 85,000 Bpd Line Following Attack Over Weekend in Colombia

The Colombian state oil company Ecopetrol said that a bombing attack on the Transandino pipeline over the weekend caused a leak in the southwest of Narino, near the border with Ecuador. The company stated that the pipeline was not operating on Saturday during the attack, the first of this year. There were 16 attacks in 2018.

Ecopetrol did not disclose who was responsible for the bombing or when the pipeline would return to service. The 306-kilometer Transandino pipeline has the capacity to transport about 85,000 barrels of oil per day from fields in the Putumayo province to the port of Tumaco on the Pacific Ocean, from where it is exported.
