Hurricane Beryl-Update #1

Shell Louisiana

(Issued at 9:00 PM CST): Shell continues to actively monitor the impact of Hurricane Ida to our assets in Louisiana and in the communities where we operate.

We are now beginning the process of redeploying personnel to our Appomattox asset, and continuing redeployment to our Enchilada/Salsa and Auger assets. Our Perdido asset in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico was never disrupted by the hurricane and our floating production, storage and offloading vessel, the Turritella (also known as Stones) is online as well.

Our remaining Shell Deep Water assets---Appomattox, Mars, Olympus, Ursa, Auger, and Enchilada/Salsa--remain shut in. Approximately 80% of Shell-operated production is currently offline. Our inspections on board confirm that there is no significant structural damage to these Shell Deep Water assets impacted by the storm. Our crews will focus on making any necessary repairs in a safe, sustainable manner.

Damage assessments continue at our West Delta-143 (WD-143) offshore facility, operated by Shell Pipeline. We are working to understand the full extent of the damage and the degree to which production in the Gulf of Mexico will be impacted.

We re-staffed Shell Pipeline’s South Pass 89 asset yesterday and Main Pass 69 asset today and are now working to finalize assessment of the platform and pipelines. A standup test will be conducted prior to restart of the pipeline. We also re-staffed Green Canyon 19 asset yesterday and completed assessments. The platform returned to service this morning. Amberjack pipeline will be available for producers upstream of Green Canyon 19 with deliveries to Ship Shoal 332. At this time, we are not able to provide service downstream to Fourchon.

Platform startup will remain dependent on the availability of downstream infrastructure including pipelines and delivery locations.

Our Norco manufacturing facility continues to assess impacts. The site is still without electrical power and remains in the elevated flare with visible smoking. We are continuing to complete repairs and are making visible improvements to minimize flaring until power is restored. Air monitoring is being conducted on the fence line and we are utilizing a 3rd party resource for air monitoring in the community. We will continue this monitoring through the duration of this event.

Our Geismar manufacturing facility was shut down proactively in advance of the storm. Geismar did not lose power and experienced minimal damage. The site is working to restore its nitrogen supply and prepare for a safe and deliberate restart based on utility and feedstock availability from external suppliers.

Our recovery efforts in the wake of Hurricane Ida include caring for our people and the communities where they live and work. Shell’s fueling resource team is working with impacted parishes to deliver fuel for public safety and emergency response vehicles.

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

We continue assessing the results of our initial flyover of assets. In that initial flyover, we observed damage to our West Delta-143 (WD-143) offshore facility. We are working to understand the full extent of the damage and the degree to which our production in the Gulf of Mexico will be impacted.

The WD-143 facilities serve as the transfer station for all production from our assets in the Mars corridor in the Mississippi Canyon area of the Gulf of Mexico to onshore crude terminals.

Our Perdido asset in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico was never disrupted by the hurricane and our floating production, storage and offloading vessel, the Turritella (also known as Stones) is currently back on line. All of our other offshore assets remain shut in and remain fully evacuated at this time. Approximately 80% of Shell-operated production is currently offline.

In our initial flyover, we did not observe any visible structural damage to the rest of our offshore assets. We are currently working through a process to conduct a more detailed damage assessment at those assets and work to restore production as soon as possible.

A temporary crew-change heliport is in the process of being established, because our primary crew change heliport in Houma, LA sustained significant damage in the storm. Crew changes to and from assets will not occur until the temporary heliport has been fully set up. However, some limited flights have taken place to move non-essential personnel to shore.

Our Norco and Geismar manufacturing facilities were shut down proactively in advance of the storm with only essential personnel at the sites. Our Norco site lost power, and there is evidence of some building damage. Geismar did not lose power. Damage assessments are underway at both facilities. At this time, we cannot confirm a schedule for when Norco and Geismar will resume full operations and production

Our Port Allen Catalyst Plant has safely restored operations after being shut down proactively for Hurricane Ida.

The Shell team in Louisiana is responding in many ways, to help colleagues and neighbors in need. We have a range of support in place for employees who were in the path of the storm, including temporary housing to remediation for storm damage. At Norco, we set up a base camp to house and feed crews that are working around the clock to bring power back to hard-hit communities.

We will continue to monitor weather reports and conditions on the ground across southeast Louisiana and respond accordingly. As always, Shell’s top priority is the safety of our people, the environment and our assets.
