It's frightening news as Shell threw a spanner @ Singapore.

Despite Shell new CEO Sawan announced increasing investments, Singapore oil production was  terminated W/O further discussion.

Shell chief sets ‘ruthless’ new course to catch up with US rivals

Sawan insists strategy to cut emissions still in place even after the oil major pledged to invest in new oil and gas production ..

It's almost impossible for Singapore govt to replace lost of tax and revenue disappeared into a black hole

Closure of Kranji Race Course any discussion?  Since want more lands , Tua TV site demolition all free up as well.

[ODA TETSURO]

Yes, time for HDB to build flats for foreigners at Bukom island with sea view!

[Huliwang]

I think Shell exiting from Bukum is planned and expected after consideration by PAP when they made up their minds to go green. So this seeking to exit by Shell is no surprise to PAP as this Sorhai tried to portray.

SG Govt failed to plan and plan to fail.

Aramco and PetroChina will be keen to buy Bukom off Shell. I don't humanity completely weaning off oil for the next 50 years. Even if not for fuel, we still need plastics.

You dig the sand, all black the next layer.

Need to wait 25 yrs before can do thing on it...like the Kallang Gas Work site...

[sclim]

exit means sell to someone. such a big complex and good shipping route has a lot of value.

everyone talk about ev car etc. end of day petrol is still among cheaper solution. reliable and produce energy on demand.

not like solar cell depends on sun,
wind turbine depends on wind speed.
hydro power depends on water pressure.
etc all depend on nature .
battery store electricity leak all the time.

nuclear is too dagerous, if nuclear incident cost is not berable.

Jurong island, can be a tourist spot, a garden ?
Else a stadium field for football/ruby/cricket field for the workers there
