Shell (RDS.A) has warned that it expects its Q4 profit to be “significantly lower than recent levels of profitability,” with the company estimating that adjusted earnings on a current cost of supplies basis will plummet to $2.9B from $7.3B a year earlier. Consensus is for $4B.

Shell cited oil and gas prices, “weak industry conditions in downstream oil products, higher exploration expenses, and lower upstream volumes” as reasons for the drop in earnings.
