Shell mulls sale of non-operated assets in Malaysia

By Reuters Staff: March 13, 2021

KUALA LUMPUR, March 13 (Reuters) – Royal Dutch Shell PLC’s Malaysia unit said it is considering selling its stakes in two production-sharing contracts it does not operate off the coast of Sarawak state.

In a statement on Friday, Shell Malaysia said the decision to consider divestment options is part of Shell Group’s strategy to focus and increase resilience and competitiveness in its upstream business.

The Baram Delta EOR and the SK307 production-sharing contracts are operated by Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd, a unit of state energy firm Petronas. Sarawak Shell Berhad owns a 40% equity interest in Baram Delta and 50% in SK307, with Petronas Carigali holding the remainder. read more

  • Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.ARDS.B) says its $6B petrochemical complex in northwest Pennsylvania is now more than 70% complete and projected to be operational sometime in 2022.
  • Shell previously projected the startup in this year’s H1 after suspending work in March 2020 due to pandemic concerns.
  • The project is one of the largest construction sites in North America and includes a 1.6M mt/year cracker and three polyethylene plants with a combined capacity of 1.6M mt/year.
  • Portions of the site’s water treatment facility are being commissioned and the site’s 250 MW power plant will soon follow, the company says.
  • Shell has “hit peak oil, but not peak opportunity,” as its impressive portfolio of assets should drive long-term shareholder returns in the tens of billions of dollars, The Value Portfolio writes in a bullish analysis posted on Seeking Alpha.
