HOUSTON, (Reuters) – Shell Oil Co (RDSa.L: Quote, Profile, Research) evacuated 300 non-essential workers from the U.S. Gulf of Mexico but production was unaffected on Tuesday as a developing tropical disturbance was expected to strengthen and enter the Gulf later this week.
Shell said it plans to pull an additional 400 non-essential workers on Wednesday.
Other oil and natural gas producer representatives contacted on Tuesday night said they continued to closely monitor Tropical Disturbance 50 as it churned between the southeast coast of Florida and the north Bahama Islands.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center said on Tuesday conditions around the area of low pressure appeared favorable for the formation of a tropical or subtropical cyclone in the next day or two as the system moves across Florida into the Gulf.
So far, the 2007 hurricane season has had a limited impact on Gulf Coast oil production and refinery operations. Three refineries in Port Arthur, Texas, continue restarting after being shut by Hurricane Humberto last week.
The Gulf supplies about 30 percent of U.S. oil production and 23 percent of U.S. natural gas output, according to the U.S. Minerals Management Service. (Reporting by Erwin Seba)

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.
