OKRIKA, NIGERIA: (FILES)Oil pipelines are seen running through Okrika, a town in the Niger delta where a peace procession by Tom Ateke's militia, Niger Delta Vigilante Service took place, 04 October 2004. World oil prices stormed above 54 USD for the first time 12 October 2004, as strikes in Nigeria and Norway raised worries about possible supply shortages during the northern hemisphere winter. The price of reference light sweet crude for delivery in November rose to as high as 54.45 USD a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange, the highest in the contract's 21-year history. US crude futures later stood at 54 USD, showing a gain of 36 cents from Monday's close. AFP PHOTO/PIUS UTOMI EKPEI (Photo credit should read PIUS UTOMI EKPEI/AFP via Getty Images)
