ExxonMobil moves families from Nigeria oil complex
LAGOS, Nov 13 (Reuters) - U.S. energy company ExxonMobil (XOM.N) evacuated the families of staff at its main Nigerian oil export terminal on Tuesday after an armed attack a day earlier, a spokeswoman said.
About 60 militants armed with machine guns engaged troops guarding the 400,000 barrel-per-day Qua Iboe terminal in a fierce gunfight for several hours on Monday. The attackers blew up at least one police boat and seized two machine guns from the navy. A pregnant woman was killed in the crossfire. (Reporting by Tom Ashby; editing by Sami Aboudi)
