Shell’s $20 billion Nigeria Bonga bet collides with talk of an Argentina shale exit

Shell’s $20 billion Nigeria Bonga bet collides with talk of an Argentina shale exit

Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu has given the green light to investment-linked incentives for Shell’s Bonga South West deepwater oil project, following talks with CEO Wael Sawan. Sawan indicated a final investment decision could come by 2027, with projected capital and operating costs around $20 billion. Shell is also eyeing Nigeria’s exploration licence round. Tinubu emphasized these incentives aren’t “blanket concessions” but tied to fresh capital and output. Shell highlighted recent investments in Bonga North and a gas project supplying Nigeria LNG; Exxon Mobil is another Bonga partner. Timing is crucial. After years of stalled investment and declining output, Nigeria is pushing to accelerate major offshore projects. To make it happen, the country is relying on specific fiscal and regulatory adjustments.

Exxon Mobil stock price rises after-hours as XTO shops $1 billion Eagle Ford assets ahead of Q4 results

NEW YORK, January 23, 2026, 19:17 EST — After-hours Exxon Mobil shares edged up about 1% to $134.97 in after-hours trading Friday following reports that its XTO Energy unit is gauging interest from buyers for certain Eagle Ford shale assets. The package covers roughly 168,000 net acres in South Texas — acreage adjusted for Exxon’s ownership share — and is valued at over $1 billion. Sources say XTO has set up a secure online data room for bidders and is conducting the sale internally, without tapping investment banks. An Exxon spokesperson described the move as part of a strategy to “continually evaluate and optimize” its portfolio, a push coming as U.S. crude prices remain about 18% below last year’s levels and following the company’s $60 billion acquisition of Pioneer Natural Resources in 2024.

Oil stocks brace for Tuesday as Brent holds near $64 and tariff jitters cloud demand

NEW YORK, January 19, 2026, 12:26 EST — The market has closed. Oil stocks reopened Tuesday with crude clinging near $64 a barrel after supply worries tied to Iran faded and traders shifted focus to the U.S.-Europe spat over Greenland. Brent inched up a penny to $64.14 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate added 7 cents, landing at $59.51. “The market is now focusing on the Greenland situation … any trade war expansion could impact demand,” said Janiv Shah, analyst at Rystad Energy. Phil Flynn of Price Futures Group described the scene as a market “locked in by competing bullish and bearish forces” that might push prices into “sideways trade.”

Oil stocks brace for holiday week as Chevron Venezuela license and $60 oil collide

New York, Jan 18, 2026, 12:38 EST — Market closed Chevron will be in focus during the next U.S. session after Energy Secretary Chris Wright revealed that Washington is rushing to expand the company’s Venezuela license. The update would allow Chevron to pay the Venezuelan government in cash and sell all the oil it produces there. “So they become immediately, another marketer of crude as well,” Wright explained. Chevron shares closed Friday nearly flat, up 0.1% at $166.26.

Chevron stock: Venezuela license shift and Leviathan gas bet put CVX back on watch

NEW YORK, Jan 17, 2026, 11:45 — Market closed Chevron shares ticked up 0.1% to $166.26 by Friday’s close. U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright told Reuters that Washington is accelerating efforts to broaden Chevron’s Venezuela license—a waiver under U.S. sanctions—allowing the company to pay the Venezuelan government in cash rather than crude and act as “another marketer of crude.”

Oil stocks this week: Chevron, Exxon rise as U.S. moves to widen Venezuela license

Energy Secretary Chris Wright told Reuters on Friday that the U.S. is moving “as fast as it can” to expand Chevron’s Venezuela license, enabling the company to pay royalties and taxes in cash. This shift would let Chevron sell all its Venezuelan crude outright, instead of compensating the government with oil, Wright explained. He also revealed that Washington is marketing up to 50 million barrels of stranded Venezuelan crude, with the proceeds held in Qatari bank accounts under U.S. government control. The shift is significant because traders view Venezuela policy as a key swing factor for crude prices and energy stocks. Any step that eases export restrictions is seen as a possible supply increase. Since oil producers’ earnings and buybacks often follow crude prices, supply news can jolt “oil stocks” even if the companies’ underlying fundamentals remain steady.
