Yemen strike stops Total Masila field oil output - CNBC
PARIS, Feb 15 (Reuters) - France's Total has stopped oil production at its block 10 in Yemen's Masila field since Feb. 13, because a strike at the neighbouring block 14 is preventing crude exports, a company spokesman said on Wednesday. Total has a 28.6 percent stake in block 10, which has a production capacity of 70,000 barrels per day. Oil production and exports from the Masila oilfield, Yemen's largest, stopped after workers from state-owned PetroMasila went on a strike last Thursday, a senior oil ministry official told Reuters.
