Shell Stock Rises as Hormuz Doubts Push Oil Higher

This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Shell (NYSE:SHEL), the global oil and LNG giant, delivered a monster second quarter and now oil prices are giving investors another reason to pay attention. U.S.-traded shares gained roughly 1.1% Monday as Brent crude ripped more than 3% higher to around $86.11 per barrel. Iran is still putting conditions on reopening the Strait of Hormuz, keeping a geopolitical premium alive in oil. After crude was hammered last week, the rebound changes the setup quickly. For Shell, every sustained move higher in oil can pour more fuel into an already powerful cash m

Shell Cuts Ormen Lange Gas Output by 40% After Compressor Failure

Shell has cut production at Norway's Ormen Lange gas field by around 40% after technical problems forced one of the field's two subsea compressor stations offline, adding another potential source of tightness to Europe's already strained gas market. Production has been reduced by about 8.9 million cubic meters per day from the field's 22.9 million cubic meter daily capacity since July 13, according to Norwegian gas infrastructure operator Gassco. The outage, initially expected to end in October, has now been extended to February 1, 2027. "We are working to address technical challenges we have

5 LNG Megaprojects Poised to Power the Next Gas Boom

The war between the US and Iran has driven up natural gas prices, particularly in Europe and Asia. Asia accounts for nearly 90% of liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipments from key Middle East producers like Qatar and the UAE, while Europe imports 7-11% of its LNG from the region. During spring 2026 missile and drone attacks, Iranian strikes hit Ras Laffan LNG Trains 4 & 6, and Pearl GTL Train 2. Ras Laffan owner QatarEnergy estimates repairs to the two units will sideline about 12.8 million tonnes per year of LNG capacity for three to five years.

BP p.l.c. (BP) vs. Shell plc (SHEL): Two Oil Majors Cash In on the Iran War, But Tell Different Stories

BP p.l.c. (NYSE:BP) and Shell plc (NYSE:SHEL) both posted big profit jumps this quarter, mainly due to the same Iran-war-driven surge in oil and gas prices that already drew a public attack from President Trump on Exxon and Chevron for making "too much money." However, the two major European energy companies are telling very different stories underneath that shared huge profit. Why One Company Is Apologizing, and the Other Isn't BP's profit more than doubled as new CEO Meg O'Neill pushes an aggressive turnaround.

CVX's Q2 Earnings Beat: Can Strong Momentum Drive the Stock Higher?

Chevron Corporation CVX has entered the second half of 2026 with considerable operating momentum. The company recently delivered an impressive quarterly beat, reporting adjusted earnings of $12 billion for the second quarter of 2026. The strong performance was supported by solid operational execution, higher crude oil price realizations, robust refining margins and increased production following the Hess acquisition. Results were further underpinned by stronger cash flow, a resilient upstream portfolio and disciplined shareholder returns. Yet with shares lagging both ExxonMobil XOM and Shell S

Kazakhstan Weighs New Routes as Drone Strikes Squeeze Black Sea Oil Exports

Kazakhstan is looking to re-route part of its crude oil exports away from its Black Sea export terminal and on pipelines through Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Turkey amid continued threats to its shipments from the Russian Black Sea port of Novorossiysk. "Transportation through the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan system, shipments across the Caspian Sea through the territory of Azerbaijan, as well as the Baku-Supsa route are being considered," the Kazakh Ministry of Energy said on Monday, as carried by local media.

The Incredible Shrinking BP May Be Just What Investors Need

The oil major’s earnings jumped 78% in the latest quarter, but new CEO Meg O’Neill made clear that its future will be about getting smaller by selling parts of its business around the world. O’Neill even said it may be time to stop calling the company a “supermajor” at all. Thanks largely to stronger oil prices and refining margins that have lifted the entire sector, its stock has since matched the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund’s roughly 27% return this year.

How the page works

How to read the score

The score shows direction

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.

What the page does

It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.
