	Royal Dutch Shell 4Q earnings up 21 pct. - Boston.com
		Royal Dutch Shell PLC reported a 21 percent increase in fourth-quarter earnings Thursday, buoyed in part by high energy prices and its sale of some operations.
		Shell said it added twice as much as it pumped when taking into account oil-rich sands, which new technologies are making possible to develop but cannot be counted as proven reserves.
		Shell has been desperately seeking to secure new sources of oil since it was forced to cut proven reserves by nearly a third in the wake the scandal.

	Royal Dutch Shell Not Looking Too Regal [Fool.com] December 13, 2006
		In simple terms, Royal Dutch Shell faces a number of troubling issues that include a relatively weak production profile, one of the lowest reserve replacement ratios among the majors, and problems with regard to its operations in both Russia (political pressure) and Nigeria (escalating violence).
		Just as this $22 billion project is nearing completion, Royal Dutch Shell has been coming under pressure from the Russian government in the form of environmental lawsuits seeking the revocation of the project's approval -- a bald-faced attempt to allow Russian energy giant Gazprom to grab a slice of the pie.
		This tactic seems to have worked; recent reports indicate that Royal Dutch Shell has offered to cede control of the project to Gazprom while retaining a blocking stake of at least 25%, in exchange for a stake in one of Gazprom's natural-gas fields and some cash.
