    May 19, 2026, 4:23 AM EDT. Shell (LSE:SHEL) repurchased and cancelled 231,000 shares on May 18, 2026, at an average price of £32.4578 as part of its buyback plan running from May 7 to July 24, 2026. The transaction was executed by Goldman Sachs International under UK and EU Market Abuse Regulation rules. Shares closed up 3.78%, outperforming major integrated oil peers such as Chevron and ExxonMobil, suggesting a stock-specific boost rather than wider sector momentum. The move aligns with similar buyback disclosures from peers like TotalEnergies, reflecting coordinated shareholder return strategies in the energy sector. Shell's shares traded above the 200-day moving average but remained about 6.65% below their 52-week high.
