A consortium including Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSB.LN), Van Oord Groep NV and Eneco has bid to build and operate two wind farms offshore the Netherlands.

Consortium Witwind--which comprises Shell's Dutch business, Van Oord and Eneco--said it has tendered to build the Hollandse Kust (zuid) III and IV wind farms, which it plans to start operating in 2023.

The wind farms are expected to have a total installed capacity of around 760 megawatts, which is enough to supply around 1 million houses with green energy, the consortium said. The farms will be located 20 kilometers offshore of The Hague.

According to reports from the CERAWeek energy conference in Houston, Anglo-Dutch company Shell plans to become the world's the largest electricity company by the 2030s.

Chief Executive Ben van Beurden has previously announced plans to invest $1 billion-$2 billion a year in new energy technologies, including electricity.

In February, Shell announced it had bought Sonnen, a German manufacturer of smart residential energy-storage systems, for an undisclosed sum.

OSLO (Bloomberg) -- Big Oil dodged a bullet.

Norway took a partial step in divesting oil and gas stocks in its massive $1-trillion wealth fund, approving the sale of smaller exploration companies while sparing the biggest producers such as Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Exxon Mobil Corp.

After more than a year of deliberation, the government on Friday approved excluding 134 companies classified as exploration and production companies by FTSE Russell, including Anadarko Petroleum Corp., Chesapeake Energy Corp., Cnooc Ltd. and Tullow Oil Plc. The proposal would see the fund sell about $7.5 billion in stocks.

“It reflects to a larger extent the risk we ourselves have -- the bulk of the state’s exposure in Norway is upstream activity,” Finance Minister Siv Jensen said. “We’re reducing our vulnerability by choosing to withdraw the fund gradually from this segment.”

The government goes part of the way in meeting a 2017 proposal from the fund, which rattled global markets by arguing for a full divestment of the sector to limit Norway’s overall exposure to oil. The plan was hailed as a potential huge step by climate activists, some of whom on Friday lamented the limited scope of the decision. It has been a hot-button issue in Norway, which is seeking to project an image as a responsible environmental steward while pumping oil and gas at a fast clip.

Sony Kapoor, managing director at think tank Re-Define, said in a message that the limited divestment “‘represents a victory of Big Oil lobbying over financial prudence and common sense.”

Jensen defended her decision to keep the big oil companies in the portfolio, citing their increased investments in renewable energy. Norway’s own oil company, Equinor ASA, is also increasing renewable energy investments, and even recently changed its name from Statoil.

“It would be sad if the pension fund would not be able to invest in those companies in the future,” Jensen said in an interview.

The partial move underscores the changing political climate in Norway, where opposition to oil and gas exploration is on the rise. Prime Minister Erna Solberg’s Conservative Party has been a long-time friend to the oil industry. Junior government coalition partner, the Liberals, were supportive even though they had backed a larger divestment.

Norway’s Labor Party, the biggest in opposition, also expressed support. “They are taking a more cautious step than what Norges Bank advised,” said Svein Roald Hansen, a Labor Party legislator. “But it’s better than no step at all. There seems to have been a tug of war within the government.”

The $1-trillion fund has been built up over the past two decades from oil and gas revenue and Norway also uses large chunks of income from its offshore fields each year to pay for its lavish welfare state. The managers of the fund, which is overseen by the central bank, therefore argued in their proposal that it makes little sense for Norway to be doubly exposed to oil both in its revenue stream and through its investments.

This article is being republished as part of our daily reproduction of WSJ.com articles that also appeared in the U.S. print edition of The Wall Street Journal (March 2, 2019).

LONDON -- Royal Dutch Shell PLC is expected to face prosecution in the Netherlands on criminal charges connected to a 2011 Nigerian oil deal, the company said Friday, the latest twist in one of the oil industry's biggest bribery scandals.

The Anglo-Dutch oil giant said in a short statement that the Dutch public prosecutor's office was preparing to prosecute the company for charges "directly or indirectly" connected to a 2011 oil tender.

The Dutch Public Prosecution Service said that it had concluded through its investigation of Shell that there were prosecutable offenses. "We are not yet able to make any announcements about the further course of the case at the moment," a spokeswoman for the prosecution service said.

The likely prosecution stems from a $1.3 billion deal jointly made by Shell and Italian rival Eni SpA to develop an oil field in the waters off Nigeria's coast. The companies had acquired the field, known as OPL245, from a company owned by former Nigerian oil minister Dan Etete. The deal quickly fell apart and the field remains undeveloped.

Shell and Eni have denied wrongdoing in previous cases related to the deal.

Shell declined to comment beyond its statement on the expected Dutch case. In a statement Friday, Eni said it isn't under investigation by Dutch authorities and continues to deny all wrongdoing in connection with the 2011 deal.

The move by Dutch prosecutors comes on the heels of an ongoing corruption case against Shell and Eni being brought by Italian prosecutors related to the OPL245 deal. Italian officials had alleged that Eni Chief Executive Claudio Descalzi and the other executives at both Shell and state-backed Eni knew most of the $1.3 billion the companies paid to the Nigerian government to acquire the drilling rights for OPL245 would be distributed as bribes.

The Shell executives, who have been indicted, are no longer employed by the company and no other Shell executives are on trial in Milan.

Italian prosecutors also said Goodluck Jonathan, the Nigerian president at the time of the deal, received part of the kickbacks. Mr. Jonathan has denied involvement.

Shell and Eni denied wrongdoing in relation to allegations made in the Italian trial.

In December, as part of a related proceeding, a Milan judge stated that Shell and Eni were "fully aware" that part of their payments for the oil tender would be used for kickbacks to Nigerian politicians and officials. Prosecutors had alleged that around $1.1 billion of the $1.3 billion paid for the oil field was distributed to agents and middlemen.

The Italian judge's statement came three months after the court found two middlemen -- Nigerian Emeka Obi and Italian Gianluca Di Nardo -- guilty of international corruption, sentencing them to four-year prison sentences. The main Italian case targeting Shell and Eni is ongoing.

The companies have also faced potential legal challenges in Nigeria, where the country's financial crimes watchdog has threatened to strip the companies of their claim to the oil field.

Corrections & Amplifications In December, as part of a related proceeding, a Milan judge stated that Shell and Eni were "fully aware" that part of their payments for the oil tender would be used for kickbacks to Nigerian politicians and officials. An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated that the Milan judge made the statement as part of the ongoing trial of Shell and Eni in Italy. (March, 1, 2019)
