The United Kingdom Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled in favour of British multinational oil and gas company, Shell, over a 2011 offshore oil spill.

The apex court ruled that it was too late for Nigerian claimants to sue Shell subsidiaries over a 2011 offshore oil spill.

In December 2011, there were allegations that an estimated 40,000 barrels of crude oil leaked when a tanker was loaded at Shell’s Bonga oilfield, 120km off the coast of Nigeria’s Niger Delta.
