lot of other things putting downward pressure on shares in general

so be thankful that poo and buybacks are supporting the sp

[oilretire] 07/9/2018 12:06

It is a pretty diabolical share price performance considering the buy backs an POO constantly around mid $70's

[2hoggy] 07/9/2018 11:08

These buy backs seem to be doing wonders for the share price,maybe if they stop buying it might go back up..lol

IC view on Shell Buy-backs:
By Alex Newman

"On 26 July, Royal Dutch Shell (RDSB) formalised one of the largest share buybacks in corporate history. Before the end of 2020, the oil and gas giant plans to spend at least $25bn (£19.2bn) retiring its own equity, starting with up to $2bn-worth of purchases by 25 October.

Just over a month into the programme, investors have been given several insights into the likely pace of the programme, and how Shell and broker Citigroup views the oil major’s stock.

The first observation is that Shell is on course to surpass its $2bn target. As of 4 September, the company had retired 27.7m shares for £704m, at an average of just over £25m-worth of stock per day. At that rate, £1.63bn ($2.1bn) is set to be retired when the initial tranche ends, athough the daily purchases will need to step up if Shell is to hit $25bn by 2020.

Shell is on course to surpass its $2bn target. As of 4 September, the company had retired 27.7m shares for £704m, at an average of just over £25m-worth of stock per day
Extrapolating that far ahead may be a stretch, but doubtful investors can at least take heart from the programme’s execution so far. While Shell’s shares may prove expensive on a longer-term view – say, for example, if the oil price were to crater in the next year – Citigroup has tended to make fewer purchases when the price of Shell’s ‘A’ class shares have traded above 2,542p, and vice versa (see chart). That has involved a fair bit of discretion, as total daily purchases have ranged from between £21.8m and £29.7m.

If Shell considers 2,542p 'fair value', then it should not be a surprise that all of the purchases have involved the ‘A’ class shares, which are subject to Dutch withholding tax, and tend to trade at a small discount to the ‘B’ class shares. Citigroup had been instructed to purchase “whichever of the A and/or B ordinary shares is economically the least expensive on a given trading day”.

IC View

Shell trumpets its buyback programme as a show of confidence in the balance sheet, free cash flow outlook, and portfolio. It also gives larger holders a chance to cash out in an orderly fashion, should they want. We still see value in the yield, and the income case at 2,571p.
Last IC View: Income buy, 2,652p, 26 Jul 2018"

@Waldron,

Indeed as you say, I'm looking forward to w/c 17th to re-invest all Shell dividends received - and, like you say, currently at bargain prices.

Happily, I've also already added a further 5 to 6 % to my holding over the last few weeks, so have been very pleased with the recent price weakness of RDSB.

With Brent currently showing an average price of $74.60 for Q3 and an Iranian oil embargo looming for Q4, these are incredible days of value for energy stocks that are lagging commodity price improvements by some way.

Have a great break - and don't look at the stock market whilst you're away - just relax!

J'espère que vous passerez de bonnes vacances en Provence.

A bientôt,

FJ :)

Shell Marine Discusses Engine Protection Beyond 2020
September 4, 2018

Marine lubricant choices to address International Maritime Organization restrictions on the fuels used by ships from 2020 must be based on verifiable cylinder oil performance data and engine testing to cover all operating conditions, according to the new General Manager of Shell Marine, Joris Van Brussel.

Based in Singapore, Joris has gained experience across Shell’s fuels, lubricants and renewables businesses worldwide, with roles in licensing, branding and retail activities, as well as group strategy, product marketing and distribution.

“Recent months have seen some movement by mainstream shipowners towards exhaust gas scrubbing to meet the 2020 marine fuel sulphur cap,” said Joris. “These customers will continue using high sulphur heavy fuel oils with two stroke engines, and demand lubes that are proven to protect cylinders against cold corrosion under extreme stress, such as Shell Alexia S6 or the higher BN Shell Alexia 140.

“However, with just over a year to go before the new restrictions enter into force, a significant part of the market will shift to fuels with less than 0.5% sulphur, where other cylinder oil formulations with a lower BN number is expected to deliver optimum performance.”

“The two-stroke product portfolio for 2020 is largely in place, but we expect that there will be a requirement for significant volumes of higher BN cylinder oils to be replaced by BN40 or BN70 grades.”

Joris also said that, with engine makers still developing technology aggressively, and the fuels market mix evolving, sulphur emission-free LNG is also securing a position as a marine fuel requiring widespread distribution.

Shell continuously uses test engines installed at the unique Marine & Power Innovation Centre (MPIC) in Hamburg, putting promising formulations through their paces in the most extreme conditions oils can face before field trials and OEM validation tests. Latest work at MPIC is focusing on the final tests of a new 40BN cylinder oil for two stroke engines that is already undergoing field trials and is expected to be available in the market in the early part of 2019.

“Today, the work we do at MPIC has to be part of that multi-faceted strategy for customers that has developed into MILES, where we address the most pressing operational concerns customers have,” continues Joris. Shell’s Marine Integrated Lubrication and Expert Solutions (MILES) programme aims to help by combining purchasing options, services and an extensive lubricant range into a strategy that addresses these pressing operational concerns. This unique approach to lubricants management can help to improve reliability, efficiency and profitability.

As well as providing optimal port lifting recommendations, a MILES package can include the entire lubrication management for a vessel, combining stock levels and demand planning for a given operating profile, feed-rate optimisation, and even ‘flexi pay’ schemes.

“Shell Marine has also been concentrating on developing its technical services for a world where there is much more uncertainty and the likelihood is that the quality of fuel will vary,” added Joris. Better monitoring of lubricant performance for engines in service, for example, backed by advanced technology to communicate data from ship to shore improves decision-making when it comes to lubricants logistics.

Earlier this year, maritime contractor Van Oord signed a five-year agreement with Shell Marine covering the lubrication needs for its entire fleet of vessels, based on the MILES offer. The agreement included arrangements to take advantage of Shell Marine’s LubeMonitor 4T programme to help manage oil consumption.

“Our tests and customer feedback show that reductions in feed rates can be achieved with an overall cost reduction to customers. In another case, customer had seen the use of our Shell LubeMonitor was able to cut their cylinder oil costs by 25% whilst still complying with the engine maker’s recommendations.R21;
