* Current cost of supply net profit up 71 pct to $10.9 bln
* Profit includes $2.06 billion non-operating items
LONDON, Oct 30 (Reuters) – Royal Dutch Shell Plc (RDSa.L: Quote, Profile,Research, Stock Buzz) said on Thursday third-quarter current cost of supply (CCS) net profit jumped 71 percent to $10.9 billion, boosted by high oil prices and asset sales.
Shell said the CCS result, which strips out unrealised gains or losses related to changes in the value of fuel inventories, included a net gain of $2.06 billion due to non-operating items, mainly related to the sale of a German gas network.
Excluding non-operating items, the CCS net profit was $8.84 billion.
A Reuters poll of six analysts had given an average forecast of $7.195 billion for Shell’s third quarter current cost of supply net income, excluding non-operating items.

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.
