Friends of the Earth International today welcomed an unreported announcement of oil giant Shell which said this week that it will replace all fuel transport pipelines linking the Shell oil refinery to the Durban harbor in South Durban... Shell's fuel pipelines and holding tanks have been under severe scrutiny in South Durban, after several leaks in 2001, where more than 1 million litres of petrol leaked through rusting infrastructure to settle in communities and under peoples' homes, resulting in people having to relocate from their homes.
