Third quarter 2011 results and interim dividend announcement
Royal Dutch Shell Chief Executive Officer Peter Voser commented:
“We continue to make good progress with our strategy; improving our competitive performance, delivering a new wave of production growth, and maturing the next generation of growth options for shareholders.
Our profits pay for Shell’s substantial investments in new energy projects, to ensure low-cost, reliable energy supplies for our customers and to create value for our shareholders. Our third quarter results were higher than year-ago levels, driven by higher oil prices and Shell’s performance.
In Upstream, our oil and gas production excluding divestments grew by 2% from year-ago levels, driven by the continued ramp-up of our growth projects, mainly in Qatar and Canada." [read the full comment in the Quarterly Results Announcement]
