Written By Unknown on Rabu, 16 Januari 2013 | 18.56

BP is setting up a helpline for relatives following reports five Japanese nationals and a French citizen were kidnapped from a facility part-operated by the company in Algeria.

The oil firm said it had reported a "security incident" to the UK authorities but was yet to confirm a link to reports that Islamist militants had seized six people.

In its statement BP said: "We can confirm that there has been a security incident this morning at the In Amenas gas field in the eastern central region of Algeria.

"The In Amenas field is operated by a joint venture of which BP is a member. Algerian authorities are engaged with the incident; UK authorities have also been advised.

"BP has activated its emergency response system and is setting up a helpline for relatives."

The company did not say whether foreigners were taken away from the facility.
