EOSE Stock Climbs Before Crucial Share Vote as Eos Energy Bulls Eye Grid-Storage Funding

Eos Energy Enterprises shares rose on Tuesday, last quoted at $9.42, up 43 cents, or about 4.8%, after the zinc-battery storage company traded between $8.755 and $9.685 during the session. Volume reached about 26.4 million shares. The move came one day before Eos’ virtual annual meeting, set for Wednesday at 10 a.m. EDT, where investors will have a fresh chance to weigh the company’s financing path.

BP PLC Faces Crucial Week as Oil Rally Boosts Outlook Before Meg O’Neill Takes Charge

Brent crude is trading over $115 a barrel as BP readies for its April 1 leadership transition, putting the company on track for its steepest monthly gain since at least 1988, LSEG data shows. That’s a markedly stronger setup for incoming CEO Meg O’Neill than just a few weeks back. O’Neill steps into the role April 1. Timing is key for BP, which has had a slimmer safety cushion than certain peers. Back in February, BP announced it would pause $750 million in quarterly buybacks and absorb around $4 billion in charges tied to renewables and biogas holdings. The company is now redirecting extra cash flow toward slashing net debt, aiming for a $14 billion to $18 billion range by

Shell Plc shares climb as Brent heads for record month and Europe braces for fuel crunch

Shell Plc climbed 1.3% in Monday’s London session, tracking Brent’s surge as the benchmark crude eyed its biggest monthly jump ever. Investors are upping their expectations for a stronger first quarter from Shell’s oil and LNG trading desks. LNG—natural gas chilled to liquid for transport—remains central to the business. TotalEnergies gained 1.8% alongside, helping send Europe’s energy index to an all-time peak. The clock is ticking for Shell, which is set to release its quarterly update on April 8. Analysts are getting bullish—three of them have bumped up their first-quarter net profit forecasts by around 15% on average. “The first quarter is going to be phenomenal for these companies,” Roth Capital Partners’ Leo Mariani said.

Santos Limited Rushes Crude to Australian Refineries as Canberra Bolsters Fuel Security

Santos Ltd has accelerated a portion of a 575,000-barrel Cooper Basin crude shipment for Viva Energy's Geelong plant, while shifting a separate 150,000-barrel Varanus Island lot to Ampol just last week, according to reports from Upstream and The Australian on Sunday. The outlets noted the transactions are aimed at boosting local refining capacity as fuel supply pressures mount in Australia. The issue is front and center after Canberra announced on Saturday a move to amend export-finance laws, letting the government backstop private-sector fuel buys—this comes as Middle East turmoil rattles supplies in a nation that imports around 90% of its fuel. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese outlined “new powers” aimed at “get[ting] fuel here,” and Energy Minister Chris Bowen put Australia’s

Why Woodside Energy Stock Price Is Back in Focus as Cyclone Narelle Deepens LNG Crunch

Woodside Energy Group reported Sunday that production at its Karratha gas plant remains disrupted by Tropical Cyclone Narelle. Shares finished Friday at A$34.47, ticking up 0.26% on the Australian Securities Exchange. The continued outage follows damage at nearby Chevron sites, signaling tighter regional LNG supply as repairs drag on. Here’s why it’s hitting hard now: Australia’s role in LNG just got bigger after Qatar halted output this month in response to Iranian strikes. Add in the cyclone shutdown and, as MST Marquee’s Saul Kavonic points out, over a quarter of the world’s LNG supply is now offline.

Woodside Energy Stock Price Edges Up as LNG Markets Tighten Despite Beaumont Delay

Woodside Energy Group Ltd ticked higher Friday, with Reuters’ delayed data putting the stock at A$34.47, a 0.26% lift. Brent crude’s 4.2% jump kept energy markets tight, as investors watched for further fallout from the Middle East war. Woodside remains anchored in LNG and oil, despite moves to branch into ammonia and push into North America. Liz Westcott stepped in as CEO this month, just as the company faces a more subdued production forecast for 2026. She’s already flagged attracting additional investors to the Louisiana LNG project as a key focus in the near term.

Shell Plc Stock Price Holds Firm as $110 Oil Rewrites Profit Outlook

Shell Plc shares stayed resilient Friday, with crude pushing past $110 a barrel and investors bracing for a robust first quarter from the London energy giant. The stock last showed at 3,472.5 pence in London on Thursday; meanwhile, U.S.-listed Shell traded at $92.16 as of 11:26 UTC Friday, ticking up 0.3% from its prior close. The FTSE 100, in comparison, slipped 0.4%. This shift takes on added weight with Shell nearing its earnings window, especially as profit forecasts tick up while equity markets show nerves. Over the last month, three analysts bumped up Shell’s first-quarter net profit projections by an average of 15%. The company will put out its quarterly update note on April 8, according to Reuters. “The first

Woodside Energy Stock Price Edges Higher After Beaumont Handover, Lower-Carbon Delay Caps Gains

Woodside Energy Group’s U.S. shares ticked up about 0.7% to $23.82 late Thursday, after the Australian firm announced it now runs the Beaumont New Ammonia facility in Texas, taking the reins from OCI Global. Earlier, Sydney trading saw the stock advance 1.8% to A$34.24, according to Reuters-delayed figures. This is significant right now for one reason: Liz Westcott just stepped in as CEO last week, and Beaumont lands among the first major operational tests with her at the helm, as Woodside runs through a packed project lineup.

SSE Share Price Today: Why SSE PLC Stock Slid as Oil Surge Revived UK Rate Fears

SSE dropped on Thursday, erasing Wednesday’s 2.02% gain as pressure from rising oil prices and a wider downturn swept through London. Shares settled at 2,504 pence, off 76 pence, or 2.95%. This is a significant issue for SSE, which is pressing ahead with its £33 billion investment strategy—roughly 80% of that targeted at its regulated electricity networks. The shares react closely to shifts in financing costs, regulatory moves, and progress on big projects.

Centrica PLC stock price slips as Ceres fuel-cell deal targets AI power crunch

Centrica Plc dipped roughly 0.5% to 200.4 pence as of 1119 GMT on Thursday, following news that the British Gas parent is teaming up with Ceres Power to roll out on-site fuel-cell power solutions for businesses in the UK and Europe. Broader London shares also lost ground, with the FTSE 100 slipping about 0.9%. Why does it matter? Power demand from data centres, AI computing hubs, manufacturing, and logistics is outpacing the speed at which grids can hook up new capacity. Right in the thick of it: solid oxide fuel cells. These on-site systems convert fuel directly into electricity. According to Ceres, their technology goes in quicker than either gas turbines or nuclear, and can start out running on natural

Shell Stock Today: Share Price Climbs as LNG Squeeze Boosts Windfall Bets

Shell Plc climbed 0.86% to 3,462.5 pence by 11:56 GMT on Thursday, after investors saw upside for its major LNG operations following fresh supply pressures—this time from war-related outages in Qatar and lingering trouble at the Strait of Hormuz. This is significant: Shell holds the top spot globally in LNG trading. LNG—short for liquefied natural gas—is natural gas cooled to a liquid to make overseas shipping possible. When cargoes have to take longer routes and market prices surge, those trades turn even more lucrative. On Wednesday, Reuters said investors have been snapping up shares of Western gas exporters and trading firms with Qatari flows under pressure.

BP shares climbed roughly 1.2% to near 574 pence in London on Thursday, outpacing the FTSE 100, which slipped, with Brent crude shooting above $105 a barrel after prospects for a swift resolution to the Iran conflict dimmed. This shift stands out—energy remains one of the last refuges for investors spooked by the latest bout of inflation. By 1013 GMT, the FTSE 100 had fallen 1.1%, yet the energy index was up 0.6%. That’s a clear sign: when crude jumps, money is flowing back into oil producers.

Shell Stock Price Slips as Oil Falls on Iran Ceasefire Hopes, but CEO Warns Europe on Fuel Risk

Shell stock slipped 0.6% in London Wednesday, tracking lower oil prices after optimism grew over a possible U.S.-brokered ceasefire in the Middle East. The company's shares in the U.S. traded at $91.12, with Shell navigating softer crude and renewed concerns about looming European fuel shortages. Shell stands out as a key European stock for investors playing the Middle East energy shock. With the world’s biggest LNG trading operation and deep Qatari connections, Shell offers exposure to rising oil prices—but also leaves investors exposed if gas shipments remain blocked.

Woodside Energy Stock Price Rises as Oil Rebounds Above $104, LNG Squeeze Deepens

Woodside Energy Group's U.S. shares climbed $0.61 to $24.34 on Tuesday. Over in Australia, the main ASX listing wrapped up down A$0.06 at A$34.73, moving between A$32.93 and A$34.73 throughout the session. The shift is notable: after Sydney wrapped, energy markets got even tighter. Brent finished up 4.55%, settling at $104.49 a barrel on ongoing disruption in the Strait of Hormuz. QatarEnergy invoked force majeure on certain long-term LNG deals, citing factors beyond its control and halting some deliveries.

Shell Stock Price Today: Oil Rebound and $3 Billion Adura Loan Put Shares Back in Focus

Shell Plc’s U.S. shares edged up roughly 0.3% to $90.71 on Tuesday, tracking Brent crude’s rebound past $100 a barrel after Iran pushed back on talk of negotiations with the U.S. Investors sifted through news of a $3 billion funding deal for Adura, Shell’s North Sea partnership with Equinor. This shift is significant for Shell, given its exposure on both fronts of the Gulf turmoil. Rising crude prices can boost cash flow fast. But the conflict has also hit Shell-connected assets in Qatar, while stirring up new doubts around LNG—liquefied natural gas—a business central to the group.

Goldman Sachs Raises Brent, WTI Oil Forecasts Despite 11% Oil Drop on Iran Talk Hopes

Goldman Sachs bumped up its 2026 oil price targets, citing risks from possible trouble in the Strait of Hormuz and a wave of strategic stockpiling that could keep supplies squeezed. Even after crude prices fell on optimism over potential U.S.-Iran talks, the bank now sees Brent averaging $85 a barrel, up from its previous $77 call. For West Texas Intermediate, the new forecast is $79, compared with $72 earlier. This call lands at a pivotal moment: despite the market’s abrupt turnaround, the supply shock remains unresolved. Roughly a fifth of global oil and LNG moves through the Strait of Hormuz. Asia, more vulnerable than most, sources about 60% of its oil imports from the Middle East.

African ministers snub London Africa Energies Summit as local content row deepens

On Monday, the African Energy Chamber announced African petroleum ministers won’t be at the Africa Energies Summit in London this May, escalating tensions over local content and representation. The move comes after Mozambique's Energy Chamber withdrew from the event last week. This matters because the summit brands itself as Africa’s top global upstream gathering—upstream covering oil and gas exploration and production—and serves as a meeting ground for governments, national oil companies, and investors. Should official African attendance drop, a London event designed to promote licensing rounds and LNG export projects, with gas chilled to liquid for transport, could lose its edge just as Mozambique’s major gas projects are picking up.

Shell and BP Looked Like the FTSE 100’s Only Clear Oil Bets. Then Brent Fell Below $100

Shell and BP slipped on Monday, tracking Brent crude, which settled just below $100 at $99.94 a barrel after U.S. President Donald Trump hit pause on planned strikes targeting Iranian power plants for five days. The FTSE 100 managed to claw back from heavier losses earlier in the session but still ended 0.2% lower. Shell shares shed 4.2%; BP dropped 2.2%. The reversal is notable. Just last week, UK oil majors stood out as the market’s go-to safe haven against a war-fueled energy jolt, while traders started to worry that oil above $100 might puncture the prevailing optimism. Monday wiped that away fast—the selling wasn’t sparked by headlines from the companies themselves but by crude’s own swings.

ASX Falls, Fuel Security Fears Grip Australia as Iran Threats Whipsaw Oil and Stocks

Monday brought a jolt to both Australian markets and the government’s fuel-supply narrative as the Iran conflict unsettled energy prices, only for a late shift in U.S. military plans to briefly ease the tension. President Donald Trump announced a halt to planned strikes on Iranian power plants, a reversal after stocks in Sydney had already lost ground and ministers faced renewed scrutiny on fuel security. This is a bigger deal for Australia than for many peers, since roughly 90% of its fuel is shipped in — and domestic shortages have already been flagged. Energy Minister Chris Bowen pointed out that six shipments slated for delivery between mid-April and mid-May were either cancelled or pushed back, though replacements have filled some
