HELL’S DIVESTMENTS HIT $22.3B IN TWO YEARS


Royal Dutch Shell said it has completed divestments worth around $22.3 billion over the period 2016-2017 out of its three-year (2016-2018) $30 billion divestment programme.
According to Shell’s 2017 Sustainability Report released yesterday, some of the company’s interests sold include the Australian energy company Woodside Petroleum, majority of its oil sands interests in Canada, some UK North Sea assets, its onshore upstream operations in Gabon, and currently its upstream business in Ireland.
The Report read: “Shell made significant progress towards the completion of our three-year $30 billion divestment programme, which is an important part of our strategy to reshape into a world-class investment and to strengthen our financial framework. We made good progress on our 2016-2018 $30 billion divestment programme by the end of 2017, with deals worth $22.3 billion completed.
“We sold non-operated shareholdings in assets as well as entire businesses. In each transaction, Shell carried out extensive due diligence to ensure that the buyer had the capabilities to uphold, or even improve, delivery with respect to safety, security, the environment and responsibilities to neighbouring communities.”
