More details Constituting more than 68% of the votes in the House of Commons, this represents a rare and overwhelming cross-party Parliamentary majority. If it is the settled will of such a large majority in the House of Commons, Parliament should now rise to the occasion and assert the very sovereignty Brexit campaigners claim it has lost. Parliament should ratify the agreement reached by the Government with the European Union and confirm Britain’s membership of the European Union on that basis.

Iran will raise production by 500,000 barrels per day in the first week after sanctions are lifted, Rokneddin Javadi, general manager of the National Iranian Oil Company, was quoted as saying by oil ministry news agency Shaha. "A 500,000-barrel increase in Iran's oil production will take place in less than a week after the effective lifting of sanctions," Shana quoted Javadi as saying. "Our customers for this increased production level will mostly be our traditional customers in Europe and Asia." On Sunday, the United States approved conditional sanctions waivers for Iran, although it cautioned these would not take effect until Tehran had curbed its nuclear program as required under a nuclear deal reached in Vienna on July 14. Brent crude at 9pm 48.72 - 1.74 - 3.5%
Weaker refining margins and operating rates bode badly for Europe's top oil companies including Royal Dutch Shell (Xetra: R6C1.DE - news) , BP and Total (Swiss: FP.SW - news) , whose sharp drop in profits since oil prices started their rout in June 2014 has been largely cushioned by strong refining earnings.
can anybody guess/predict/suggest/ what they may reed like in 16 days time, due to the low oil price profits are going to be lower and how is it going to affect the share price, canceling the ALASKA drilling platform, as this is a important result date, it would pay us to evaluate what is going to happen so if you have any idea what you think the results may read like , i sure there is a few of us that may be interested. brent at 7.40pm 49.35 down 1.71% opened this morning at 50.27. big glut persists into 2016

Oil prices have been supported this week by reports that Russia, one of the top crude producers in the world, has expressed willingness to meet with nonmembers and OPEC members to discuss market conditions. “The market is comforted to see there appears to be more willingness among the major oil producers in [OPEC] to work together, especially with the smaller players, but a rebalancing is still quite a distance away,” said Vyanne Lai, an energy analyst at National Australia Bank. Given the vulnerability of the market, prices could still drop near the lower $40s at any sniff of bad news, she said.
The next e-dividend date is THURSDAY 12th NOVEMBER 2015 you can buy the shares up to the close of business on WEDNESDAY 11th 16.30 hrs and still qualify for the dividend that's payed in december, on the ex-dividend day 12th NOVEMBER at 7 am the share price will be reduced by the dividend payout per share last one was 0.3092p that's almost 31p after the above adjustment has been made , you can sell ,if you want to and still get the forthcoming dividend. that's means you can sell on the ex-dividend date and still get the dividend. hope this is of some help good luck. PS The 3 quarter results come out from shell on the 29th OCTOBER 2015 My guess these are not going to look to good, as a adjustment for the Arctic fiasco .may drop the share price by a bit and OCTOBER has not in the past been a good Month for the stock market, so my suggestion is wait until 29th and see what happens, Thoughts welcome

OPEC estimated oil price will be approx. 80$ a barrel by 2020. price now is 45.30 for Brent re BBC at 18.00 hrs gmt All oil producers are desperate for higher oil prices, We all know at some time /be it 2016/17/18/19 /20 the oil price will rise ,even the Telegraph has stated you can double your money by 2020. for me my B/E price is 20.018 how i get my B/E price ,add all the share buying costs together and add the total selling price to it,then divide by the amount of shares you own and you come up with the BREAK EVEN B/E price. B/E price plus B/E/P this is only my extra way of calculating the total B/E price by deducting the dividends payments you have received ,so my, or should i say our B/E/P at the moment stands at 19.71 so far we have purchased 6 lots of RDSB and the last purchase price was 18.63 so i am edging towards purchasing more to bring down our B/E price. as mentioned my previous posts , if you buy these shares,you got to be prepared to leave them alone for at least 4 and a bit years, may be less if we are lucky. but with a dividend of let's say average of 5.5 to 7.5% over the 4 years can't be bad.
of around 30.92p a share, next ex-dividend date is 12 of November in 55 days time, my assessment 98% chance the BG deal will go through as stated by c.ex Ben van Beurden ,The company had no intention to walk away from this deal. BG shares are trading at a substantial discount to the value of shell's offer,suggesting some in the market are concerned the deal will not go through, and stated SHELL was promising to maintain the dividend at $1.88 per share for this year,and at least the same for 2016 . SHELL refinery margins seem to be doing quite well, re OPEC think oil will rise approx $5 a year $80 a barrel by 2020 oil production in the US is falling as the oil rig count, SAUDI production levels lower, so we seem to be going in the right direction for a long term lift in the SP with a bit of luck.
latest news http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/35e3face-5acc-11e5-a28b-50226830d644.html#axzz3lpjvBRds brent crude up today around 5pm 49.78 up 4.25%
Today is the last day to purchase and get the expected 19p dividend,paid on the 1/10/15 tomorrow Thursday 13th being the EX-DIVIDEND DAY ,the share price will drop by 19p plus the normal adjustment good luck. ps you can sell the shares tomorrow after the adjustment and still get the dividend,if you wan't to.
European hedge fund believes market for crude is oversold as demand picks up Investors are beginning to bet on a sharp rebound in the oil price by the end of the year, on the back of rising demand and a slowdown in US production. Insch Capital Management, a Swiss hedge fund, is predicting that prices will be trading at about $82 per barrel by the beginning of next year, and already claims the market is oversold. The Lugano-based fund says it plans to ramp up investments in the sector in preparation for an expected 50pc uptick in the price of crude by 2016. Oil prices have recovered somewhat since falling sharply to below $50 a barrel after the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (Opec) decided in November to maintain production levels, despite weaker demand. Brent crude is currently trading at $64 a barrel. However, consensus is forming among investors that the oil market could be poised to recover quickly, spurred by strong demand and an expected slowdown in US production, thanks to the high number of drilling rigs that are being closed. Insch Capital said: “After the recent crude oil price declines, the oil rig count has dropped precipitously. Many oil companies are being forced to sell properties in order to repay bank debt.” Low prices have given rise to speculation that oil companies may merge or divest assets. Royal Dutch Shell (Xetra: R6C1.DE - news) has tabled a £47bn deal for BG Group (LSE: BG.L - news) . But apart from that high-profile acquisition, few deals have emerged. Insch says it is taking advantage of the market by looking at adding a number of properties to its portfolio. “If completed, these acquisitions will substantially increase not only our operating rig count, but also our proven reserve.” states andrew critchlow brent +.32 at 63.34 +0.5% 11 pm 22/06/15
