Shell stock in focus: scrapped UK gas sale, sliding oil and buyback pace before London open

Shares of Shell Plc opened Thursday in London after the company and Exxon Mobil pulled out of a planned sale of their UK Southern North Sea gas assets to Viaro Energy, citing changing commercial and market conditions. Shell will continue to operate the package, which covers 11 gas fields plus the onshore Bacton terminal. Viaro CEO Francesco Mazzagatti said the deal was “fully funded” before both parties decided to halt the transaction.

Shell buyback faces fresh questions after Q4 warning as post-oil plan takes shape

Shell buyback faces fresh questions after Q4 warning as post-oil plan takes shape

Shell on Thursday flagged that weak oil trading would drag its chemicals and products division into a fourth-quarter loss, casting doubt on its $3.5 billion quarterly share buyback. RBC’s Biraj Borkhataria pinpointed the main issue: will management “hold the line” on buybacks? HSBC’s Kim Fustier expressed less confidence in that. UBS’s Josh Stone slashed his Q4 net income forecast by 14% to $3.6 billion, while Citi’s Alastair Syme trimmed his estimate 11% to $3.83 billion. Shell shares dropped 2.6%.
