News highlights gathered by Industrial Info and IIR Energy (Sugar Land, Texas) dealing with the energy markets.
EARNINGS
Shell Flags Up to $4.5 Billion in Potential Fourth-Quarter Writedowns - Shell plc (NYSE:SHEL) (London, England) on Monday flagged impairment charges of up to $4.5 billion for the fourth quarter of 2023, mainly related to the Singapore refining and chemicals hub the oil major is looking to sell. Ahead of fourth-quarter results on February 1, the company also said gas trading would be significantly higher than the previous three-month period, while oil trading results were expected to be significantly lower over the same period.

Nigeria currently imports most of its fuel, but the Dangote refinery will make it self-sufficient and able to export fuel to neighbors in West Africa, potentially transforming oil trading in the Atlantic Basin.
