Royal Dutch Shell is planning a rapid expansion of its North American business to raise production by 40 per cent to 1m barrels equivalent per day in 2014, including gas, Canadian oil sands and deepwater oil.
The strategy, announced in Canada on Tuesday, is part of Europes largest oil companys plan to meet its aspiration of producing 3.7m barrels per day in 2014, compared with 3.15m last year.
One of its announcements included approval for a deepwater project in the Gulf of Mexico where BP is a junior partner.
