VIENNA (Thomson Financial) – OMV AG said it is “fundamentally” interested in looking at any oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) licenses for the British Isles that are offered up for sale, including any from Royal Dutch Shell PLC.
Shell recently said it is offering interested parties the opportunity to acquire equity by funding work programmes in five of its gas and oil licenses in Ireland, the United Kingdom and the Faroe Islands, including the William oil prospect and the Dooish gas condensate. Shell said that participation offers will be due on Oct 15.
“OMV is fundamentally interested in growing in its core E&P regions and will always look at opportunities that allow it to do so,” OMV spokesman Thomas Huemer said.
Huemer declined to comment on whether OMV intends to bid for the license participation Shell is offering.
Earlier this week, OMV concluded an asset swap with Island Oil & Gas PLC that provides the Austrian company with a 50 pct stake in a deepwater license that includes the Killala prospect, off the coast of Ireland.

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.
