Royal Dutch Shell's first-quarter earnings fell on lower returns from its chemicals and refining operations, but the performance of its gas trading business saw the oil major fare better than many of its rivals.

KEY FACTS

--- Shell said first-quarter profit fell almost 7% to $5.2bn.

--- That compares with $5.7bn in Q4, when Shell posted its highest profit since 2013.

--- Revenue fell 6.2% to $83.74bn, Shell said.
