A leftist rebel bomb attack has halted pumping operations along Colombia's second most important oil pipeline, the Cano-Limon Covenas, state oil company Ecopetrol said on Monday.

The attack by National Liberation Army guerrillas occurred on Saturday in a rural area of northern Norte de Santander province, close to the border with Venezuela, the company said.
