Imperial Energy, the London-listed company that explores for oil in Russia, said the country’s Natural Resources Ministry had extended all six licences held by a subsidiary.
The company’s shares rose as investors interpreted the extension as a sign Imperial’s problems with Russia’s regulators were easing.
Imperial is one of several Western energy firms, including Royal Dutch Shell and Peter Hambro Mining, that were targeted by Oleg Mitvol, deputy head of the environmental agency, over claims companies breached operating licences.
Yesterday, licences at Imperial’s Allianceneftegaz division in the Tomsk region of Siberia were extended for two years. They were due to expire at the end of the year. Imperial’s shares rose 41p to £13.86. Analysts at ABN Amro said yesterday: “Today’s news points to…. normal working relations with the Ministry of Natural Resources, and is further evidence (if needed) of a steadily decreasing risk profile.”

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.
