ADDIS ABABA, Sep 27 (Reuters) - South Sudan said on Thursday
oil production would resume by the end of the year, after Juba
and Khartoum signed a deal to secure their shared border which
allowed for the resumption of the South's oil exports through
its northern neighbour.
"We have already started the preparations ... I believe by
the end of the year, the oil will flow," chief negotiator Pagan
Amum said in Addis Ababa where the countries' two leaders had
just signed the deal.
