ABUJA, Sept 15 (Reuters) - Chevron Corp (CVX.N) said on Monday that its oil production in Nigeria has not been affected by three days of heavy clashes between militants and security forces in the restive Niger Delta.

Militants on Sunday attacked at least one Chevron-operated oil platform at Robertkiri in Rivers state.

"The shooting incident has not had any additional impact on current levels of production," spokesman Kurt Glaubitz said. (Reporting by Randy Fabi; Editing by Tume Ahemba and Anthony Barker)
