Shell share price nudges up as Vaca Muerta sale talk swirls and buyback ticks along

Shell share price nudges up as Vaca Muerta sale talk swirls and buyback ticks along

Shell plc has reached out to potential buyers about unloading its Vaca Muerta assets in Argentina’s Neuquen basin, three sources told Reuters, sparking fresh questions about the company’s long-term plans in Latin America. The stakes could run into billions, according to the sources, though they warned a sale isn’t certain; Shell declined to comment. Continental Resources, which recently entered the region, dubbed it “one of the most compelling shale plays in the world.” Andy McConn, director at Enverus Intelligence Research, noted Shell’s holdings might break even with Brent prices under $50, adding that “such economics and scale screen favorably versus other global shale assets.”

Mitsubishi, holding 15%, is also considering its options. On Friday, Shell’s shares in London edged up 0.2% to 2,752.5 pence, while its U.S.-listed ADRs gained 1.1%, closing at $74.25.
