Shell: record 2Q net profit of $11.6 billion
The year ago figure was US$8.67 billion.
The company says its selling price per barrel of oil was around US$112, up from US$64 a year earlier.
Chief Executive Jeroen van der Veer called the results “competitive” in a statement Thursday.
A “good operating performance, combined with increased oil and gas prices, offset the impact of weaker” results from refineries, he said.
