SHEL: Hormuz Blockade Tightens LNG Supply for Majors
The Hormuz blockade creates a bifurcated outcome: LNG producers with Middle East assets (Shell, ExxonMobil, TotalEnergies) face 2-3 quarter supply disruptions and margin compression, while refining-heavy majors and integrated producers with refining exposure benefit from crude-product spread widening. Consensus has treated all majors symmetrically on Brent upside, missing the structural divergence. LNG-heavy names should underperform the refining basket by 5-10% over the next 2-3 quarters.
SHELCVXBPSLB: Gulf Oil Resumption Lags Street as Iran War Disrupts Q1
SLB's Q1 earnings showed Middle East revenue down 10% with ongoing demobilizations from the Iran conflict, contradicting the IEA's projection of swift Gulf oil field resumption.
