Shell says investment in Brazil subsalt to remain robust

Feb 15, 2016 

Royal Dutch Shell (RDSa.L), Europe’s largest oil company, believes that investment in Brazil’s subsalt offshore areas will remain robust, Chief Executive Ben van Beurden said in Rio de Janeiro on Monday.

Van Beurden said that subsalt areas should be able to break even at oil prices expected this year. The global oil industry must invest $1.5 trillion a year to maintain output, he added.
