Workers clean up an oil waste pit owned by state petroleum company Petroecuador in Shushufindi, some 410 km (254 mi) east of Quito in this December 8, 2009 file photo. Residents in the country´s Amazon region are suing Chevron, accusing the U.S. company of doing environmental damage while it operated in a consortium with Petroecuadro in the 1970s and 1980s. A U.S. judge on Monday halted enforcement of an $8.6 billion award against Chevron Corp, siding with the oil company against Ecuadorean plaintiffs in a long-running dispute over Amazon rain forest pollution. The move follows an Ecuadorean court's judgment last month that went against Chevron in what has become an international test case, watched closely by private-sector oil companies wary of potential damages claims elsewhere.
