Reuters: Shell says Oman Mukhaizna stake to drop to 17 pct
Wednesday 22 June 2005
LONDON (Reuters) – Royal Dutch/Shell group said on Tuesday it was to get a 17 percent stake in a new production sharing agreement covering Oman’s Mukhaizna oilfield, compared to the 34 percent it currently holds.
U.S. oil firm Occidental (OXY.N: Quote, Profile, Research) will receive a 45 percent stake under the terms of the new deal which has been agreed in principle and be named project operator, a Shell spokesman said.
France’s Total (TOTF.PA: Quote, Profile, Research) will receive 2 percent, down from its current 4 percent. State-owned Oman Oil Company will hold 20 percent. The United Arab Emirates’s Liwa Energy will have 15 percent and Partex Oman will own 1 percent.
The Shell spokesman said the new plan to develop Mukhaizna aimed to boost production to 150,000 barrels of oil per day from 10,000 bpd by using complex techniques to exact more of the heavy oil in the field.
Oman’s appointment of Occidental to the lead role in the project is an embarrassment for Shell, which is struggling with one of the worst reserve replacement ratios in the industry.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
