Storm Center Disturbance 35-Update #1

(ISSUED AT 9:00 AM CST) Shell is monitoring tropical Disturbance 35 for potential impacts to its assets and operations in the Gulf of Mexico. As a precautionary measure, Shell is preparing to shut in production at Stones and Appomattox and has begun evacuating non-essential personnel from its assets in the Mars Corridor. We are in the process of safely pausing some of our drilling operations and currently have no other impacts on our production across the Gulf of Mexico.

As always, the safety of our people, the environment and our assets are Shell’s top priority.
