CPC says oil flows bypassing damaged pumping station

MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) said on Friday that oil flows via the Tengiz-Novorossiisk system were bypassing a pumping station damaged by a Ukrainian drone strike and that oil loadings at the sea terminal were continuing as normal.

The CPC, which carries virtually all of Kazakhstan's oil exports, saw reduced flows after a Ukrainian drone strike hit the Kropotkinskaya pumping station in southern Russia this week.
