Yemen plans to tighten security for energy companies operating within its borders as it investigates the cause of an explosion at a crude pipeline yesterday, the country’s oil minister said.

“We are working as a government on a plan to protect all oil companies, and I believe the companies are satisfied with what we’ve done already,” Amir al-Aidarous said in Abu Dhabi today. “This is not Afghanistan. This is Yemen.”
