Oil production has resumed at a Nigerian offshore installation six days after an attack by militants.
The Bonga oil field, 120km (75 miles) offshore accounts for a tenth of Nigeria's production.
The facility was previously thought safe from militants' attacks, which have shut down oil production by around a quarter in recent years.
The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (Mend) claimed it carried out the attack.
"We're up and running on Bonga", a spokeswoman for the energy company Royal Dutch Shell told the AFP news agency.
One American was kidnapped from another boat during the attack but was later released.
