Britain on Thursday opened its first permanent military base in the Middle East in more than four decades in the Gulf country of Bahrain just days after the kingdom made its biggest oil find in its history.

The UK Naval Support Facility can house up to around 500 Royal Navy personnel, including sailors, soldiers and airmen, in a region where maritime security ensures oil shipments and goods make it from Asia to Europe. British officials have described it as the first permanent British base east of the Suez Canal since 1971.

The facility will give the UK an expansive presence along key international shipping routes.

"The aim of the Royal Navy being out here anyway is to enhance and ensure the maritime security in the region, and whether or not that's law and order on the high seas, countering piracy, countering terrorism, making sure that the high seas are all safe for the free-flow of commerce, the free flow of trade to be able to take place," said Commodore Steve Dainton, UK Maritime Component Commander.

Bahrain, located off the coast of Saudi Arabia and just west of its rival Iran, also plays host to the US Navy's 5th Fleet. Tense encounters have occurred between US and Iranian naval forces in the Gulf, though military officials say provocations of US navy ships in recent months have halted.

The new British hub makes it easier for the Royal Navy to conduct longer-term deployments in the Gulf and will offer engineering and logistical support for ships. The facility includes sleeping accommodations, sport facilities and recreational areas for troops.

"It offers us a much better base than we've had before, a much more permanent presence and a real infrastructure for our people who are working and operating here all the time," said Commander of the Joint Forces Command of the UK General Chris Deverell.

The port would also be able to service mine sweepers and aircraft carriers, though carriers like the HMS Queen Elizabeth will not be able to dock there because the water is too shallow.

The Duke of York, Prince Andrew and Bahrain's Crown Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa were on-hand for the ceremony in Salman Port.

The British first established the HMS Juffair base in 1935 in Bahrain, but the US took over the base after the small island nation gained its independence from the British Empire in 1971.

The re-establishment of the British base was announced in late 2014 and construction started nearly a year later. The name was changed to UK Naval Support Facility on Thursday.

Bahrain, led by a Sunni monarchy, was rocked by Arab Spring-inspired protests in 2011 by its Shia majority and others aimed at demanding more political freedoms from the ruling Al Khalifa family. The government put down the demonstrations with help from Saudi and Emirati troops.

The ongoing crackdown has seen dozens of activists imprisoned, others exiled, and a major Shia opposition group dismantled.

The difference FJ, MIGHT BE THAT SHELL KNEW over 30 years as advised by so called experts but decided to turn a blind eye

FOR THE OTHERS IGNORANCE WAS BLISS

Shell saw the light on the road to DamassGas only in recent years

lol

EDIT The prime culprits are and were governments for not curtailing any wrong doings , whether itnbe
to do with pollution and destroying enviroments by what ever means,corruption and those famous bribes

SHELL B BY FAR NOT THE ONLY ONE

I assume that anyone threatening to sue anyone else over climate change:

1. Can prove that they themselves has never bought any oil, gas or petrol products;
2. Has never been on any form of public transport that uses such forms of energy;
3. Has never resided in a property that uses such forms of energy;
4. Has never washed self / clothing in water heated by such forms of energy;
5. Has never travelled on holiday by air via a carrier using jet fuel;
6. Has never ordered their joss-sticks to be delivered by a home delivery service that uses such forms of energy;
7. Has never attended a protest march having taken un-necessary air miles to so do.
8. Is not called Tarquin nor Cosmos.

.... etcetera, etcetera, etcetera

Rather than bleat about one instance of a plethora of scenario planning exercises (which sound like standard what-if analysis techniques) 30 years ago, these people should be encouraging companies like Shell that are proactively pushing towards ever-greener energy mixes going forward.

As shareholders, we can be proud that Shell is leading the way in this move to promote ever more environmentally friendly energy solutions.

Why does the UK tax year end on 5th April?

It all began in 1582 when Pope Gregory XIII ordered a change of calendar from the Julian (named after Julius Caesar), which had been in use since 42 BC.

The Julian calendar, which consisted of eleven months of 30 or 31 days and a 28-day February (extended to 29 days every fourth year), was actually quite accurate. After centuries, though, even a small inaccuracy like this adds up. By the 1500s it had put the Julian calendar behind the solar calendar by 10 days.

However, the British did not make the change in 1582, so there was a difference of 10 days between the calendar in Britain and the rest of Europe.

By 1752 the difference had increased to 11 days (one calendar had a leap year in 1600, the other did not). Even the British realised that something must be done and they changed to the Gregorian calendar in that year.

Until 1752 the tax year in Great Britain started on 25th March, old New Year’s Day. In order to ensure no loss of tax revenue, the Treasury decided that the taxation year which started on 25th March 1752 would be of the usual length (365 days) and therefore it would end on 4th April, the following tax year beginning on 5th April.

The next difficulty was that 1800 was not a leap year in the new Gregorian calendar but would have been in the old Julian system. Therefore the Treasury moved the year start again from 5th to 6th of April, and this date has remained unchanged ever since.

Shell sells Oman unit to Indian oil firm for $329m
Subsidiary of Indian Oil Corporation Limited buys Shell Exploration and Production Oman
By Staff writer
[arabianbusiness]
Thu 05 Apr 2018 05:53 PM

Shell Overseas Holdings Limited has announced the completion of the sale of Shell Exploration and Production Oman Limited (SEPOL) to IOCL Singapore PTE Ltd (ISPL), a subsidiary of Indian Oil Corporation Limited for $329 million.

The acquisition of SEPOL, which which holds a 17 percent participating interest in the Mukhaizna Production Sharing Agreement in Oman, includes the marketing rights for entitlement oil.

Indian Oil’s stake in Mukhaizna will be 17 percent, with the remaining 83 percent owned by Occidental Mukhaizna (45 percent), Oman Oil Company (20 percent), Liwa Energy Limited (15 percent), Total E & P Oman (2 percent) and Partex (Oman) Corporation (1 percent).

Shell Oman country chair, Chris Breeze, said: “We are pleased to assist the entry of Indian Oil, an integrated energy company with activities in oil, gas, petrochemicals and one of India’s largest companies, into the upstream sector in Oman.

"Shell remains fully committed to Oman’s energy future and is actively seeking to make further investments in the country.”

He added: "Shell’s decision to divest continues to be driven by our strategy to sell non-core assets or companies to re-shape Shell into a simpler, more resilient and focused company. This sale takes Shell a step closer to its divestment target of $30 billion."

In the latest legal campaign against Big Oil, Friends of the Earth Netherlands vowed on Wednesday to take Shell to court if it doesn’t act on demands to align its corporate strategy with the global climate objectives.

“Shell is liable for its substantial contribution to climate change and for the associated social and environmental damages,” Friends of the Earth Netherlands, or Milieudefensie as it is known in Dutch, said in a letter sent to Shell’s chief executive Ben van Beurden today.

Hydrogen refuelling
INVESTMENT OVERVIEW: ITM The Big Picture
The Beaconsfield launch came a day after a consortium of companies, including ITM Power, won £8.8mln in funding from the Department for Transport

As the move towards alternative fuels for vehicles gathers pace, news last month of the opening of the first 'under the canopy' hydrogen refuelling station at Beaconsfield Services on the M40 deserved a bit of a fanfare.

The new hydrogen refuelling station, situated at one of the busiest service stations in the UK, will be fully owned and operated by ITM Power plc (LON:ITM) and has been developed in partnership with FTSE 100-listed oil giant Royal Dutch Shell PLC (LON:RDSA).
READ: ITM Power and Shell open first 'under the canopy' hydrogen refuelling station at Beaconsfield Services

Shell Beaconsfield will be the first site in the UK to bring hydrogen under the same canopy as petrol and diesel, providing drivers with a range of fuel choices to co-exist with traditional transport fuels, ITM Power said in its launch statement.

Hydrogen is generated on-site using an electrolyser that requires only water and electricity to generate the gas, which can help reduce emissions and address air pollution while offering convenience for motorists, the AIM-listed firm said.

Graham Cooley, CEO of ITM Power, said: “This shows a big step forward in offering Shell customers a clean, green fuel, which is generated on-site, eliminating fuel deliveries.”

The Beaconsfield launch came a day after a consortium of companies, including ITM Power, won £8.8mln in funding from the Department for Transport for refuelling infrastructure.
READ: ITM Power receives £4.3mln in government funding to extend network of hydrogen refuelling stations

ITM will receive £4.3mln of the funding to build four new hydrogen refuelling stations and to upgrade five existing hydrogen refuelling stations to increase capacity to support a larger fleet of fuel cell electric vehicles.

Cooley said the consortium partnership with Shell, Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai “constitutes a highly coordinated roll-out of hydrogen vehicles and refuelling infrastructure.̶1;.

Electricity to hydrogen conversion technology has the potential to revolutionise renewable energies, and that's what ITM Power specialises in, meaning cleaner air for all.

The company’s Power-to-Gas business provides PEM (proton exchange membrane) storage systems that allow customers to convert excess electrical energy into hydrogen for injection into the gas grid or storage for vehicles.

Its clean fuels solutions come in the form of modular hydrogen stations to recharge fuel cell vehicles.

Hydrogen-powered cars are far better for the environment in terms of emissions than those running on petrol, as when you burn hydrogen it produces steam, meaning only water is the by-product.
Strong contract pipeline

As well as announcing the UK government grant on March 26, ITM Power issued an operations update in which it said it had £33.3mln of projects under contract, up from £27mln on January 29, and a further £5.5mln in the final stages of negotiation.

Since January 29, the company said it has finalised contracts totalling £6.3mln and increased the total backlog of new projects by £1.5mln.

ITM’s first-half results, released at the end of January, saw its revenue jump to £1.74mln, up from £405,000 a year earlier, while total income rose by 47% to £4.4mlm including grants.

Aside from the UK hydrogen refuelling boost, ITM Power also recently received a grant from the British Columbia Government Ministries of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources and Jobs, Trade and Technology to undertake a feasibility study into renewable hydrogen production for the Canadian province.

ITM is to undertake a techno-economic feasibility study for the large-scale centralised production of renewable hydrogen in British Columbia.
READ: ITM Power receives Canadian grant to test feasibility of large scale hydrogen fuel production

The project is due to commence in the second quarter of 2018 and will have a duration of 12 months.

The group said while the initial contract value of the study is ‘relatively small’, the project had potential to be one of the largest of its kind globally.

As 92% of power generated in BC is from hydro, the company said the province is a strong candidate for production of renewable hydrogen generated via electrolysis.
More electrolyser sales, and hydrogen bus launch

Aside from Canada, ITM also inked a contract last year to supply an electrolyser - which converts hydrogen into electricity - for a 10Mw plant to be built by Shell to build at its Rhineland refinery in Germany.

The group also sold a small hydrogen electrolyser to EnergyStock, a subsidiary of Gasunie, the Dutch gas transmission network operator; installed the world's first tidal-powered hydrogen generated at European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) in Orkney; while the first hydrogen-powered bus route started operations in France last September.

ITM has also made significant progress towards establishing a new factory site in the UK, with the layout finalised, tenders received and short-listed from candidate principal contractors, and detailed plans have been submitted to the landlord for approval.

Back in October, ITM raised £29.4mln through a placing and open offer at 40p per share to provide working capital to support delivery of its contract backlog and its opportunity pipeline.

ITM’s share price has drifted back from that placing price, trading around 31.5p currently after a choppy six months, although on a one-year view the stock is still up almost 75%.

If the second-half of its current year is as busy as the last one then ITM Power will have plenty more to tell investors and that could spark a further ignition for the share price.
