The company addresses India's fragmented feedstock supply chain through technology-enabled collection and logistics that ensure traceability and compliance whilst creating livelihood opportunities for informal sector workers.

Defense contractors and oil companies profit from US-Iran war as gas prices surge past $4

As the US-Israel war with Iran enters its fifth week, American defence contractors and oil companies are reaping substantial profits whilst consumers face surging petrol prices approaching $4 per gallon. Defence stocks have surged, with Lockheed Martin jumping 25% this year after winning a contract to triple missile seeker production. Oil companies including ExxonMobil, Shell and Chevron have seen share prices rise over 20% as US crude nearly doubled from $65 to over $110 per barrel following Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. US oil producers could gain an additional $63 billion in profit, according to Rystad Energy. The situation mirrors 2022's Russia-Ukraine crisis, when global oil companies made $916 billion whilst American consumers faced record $5 per gallon petrol prices and 9% inflation.

Shell faces $711M hit after Iran strike damages Qatar gas plant

Shell faces losses of up to $750 million (£560 million) after an Iranian missile strike damaged its Pearl GTL plant in Qatar. One of the facility's two gas processing trains was badly damaged in the attack on Wednesday night, with repairs expected to take about a year. The plant, located in Ras Laffan Industrial City, converts natural gas into high-purity liquid products including jet fuel and lubricants. Analysts at Wood Mackenzie called it a "crown jewel" in Shell's portfolio, estimating it contributed $750 million to revenues last year. Shell also holds stakes in the wider Ras Laffan complex, which operates 14 LNG processing trains, two of which were also damaged. However, analysts suggest rising oil and gas prices may offset production losses for Shell and other energy majors.
