Exxon Mobil Corp on Friday said production has resumed at its Hibernia oil platform in Canada. Production was shut last month due to a power outage.

Hibernia has been producing oil since 1997 and sits roughly 315 km (200 miles) east of St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. ExxonMobil owns the largest stake in the project, followed by Chevron Canada and Suncor Energy Inc.
