Significant events
- “The conflict in the Middle East has led to significant and ongoing disruption across global energy markets, creating uncertainty around supply, pricing and operational stability. Stakeholders are increasingly focused on potential impacts on people, operations, contractual performance and the availability of key products. Prolonged instability may result in regional staffing challenges, commodity shortages and heightened governmental and customer scrutiny. Additional risks include security threats, regulatory responses and increased media and analyst attention on industry earnings. Although internal conditions remain stable and no additional interventions are required at this stage, the situation continues to be closely monitored given its evolving and unpredictable nature.”
- “The Company has been identified as a potential defendant in litigation arising from the fatal helicopter accident in 2018, as AeroShell Grease 22 was identified as the grease used in the helicopter. Shell Aviation Limited has entered into a standstill agreement to preserve the right for the relatives to potentially bring a claim against Shell for contributing to the accident. The Standstill Agreement remains in place until 6 months following the conclusion of the Inquest. The inquest took place in January 2025 and ended with no adverse mention of Shell Aviation or the grease. Considering the way the inquest unfolded and the conclusions of the AAIB that there was no fault with AeroShell Grease 22, it is unlikely that any civil claim against Shell Aviation Limited will be brought. External Counsel advised to maintain the case on legal hold until July 2026.”
