The London-based oil major provided the guidance Thursday ahead of quarterly earnings scheduled for May 5. The disclosure gives investors additional clues about the impact Western companies face as a result of moves to divorce themselves from Russia.
Shell said on Feb. 28 that it would end its involvement in financing the Nord Stream 2 natural-gas pipeline project. Shell also said it would exit its 27.5% stake in a major offshore gas project in Russia’s Far East that is 50% owned by Gazprom and supplies around 4% of the world’s liquefied-natural-gas market.
