Shell Warns of Weakness in Integrated Gas Business
Shell warned second-quarter Integrated Gas production and earnings to be lower than last quarter. The energy giant said Integrated Gas trading and optimization of would be "significantly lower" than in the first quarter. Shell explained that its Upstream production would also be down from last quarter, but said that was because of scheduled maintenance and the closing of a sale of operations in Nigeria.U.S.-listed shares of Shell (SHEL) declined when the energy giant warned about its current-quarter Integrated Gas operations. The London-based firm said Integrated Gas trading and optimization of would be "significantly lower" than in the first quarter, with production of between 900,000 and 940,000 oil-equivalent barrels per day (BOE/D) compared with 980,000 BOE/D a year ago and 927,000 in the first quarter. It expects Integrated Gas adjusted earnings of $1.4 billion to $1.8 billion, versus $2.68 billion in 2024 and $1.4 billion in Q1. The outlook for Upstream production was in range of 1.66 million to 1.76 million BOE/D, down from 1.78 million BOE/D a year ago and 1.86 million BOE/D last quarter, which the company noted reflected "scheduled maintenance and the completed sale of SPDC in Nigeria." Shell and other gas producers have been struggling with lower prices on higher U.S. output and relatively mild winter weather. Futures peaked in March and have dipped by about 25% since. Despite today's 2% declines, U.S.-listed shares of Shell are up about 12% year-to-date.

2025 Woodstock Fair won't have midway
While a fair doesn't seem like a fair without a midway, the Woodstock Agricultural Society will carry on with the 2025 version of the event without the rides area residents are used to seeing. 'Unfortunately, it is true that we will no longer be able to provide the midway for the Woodstock Fair going forward. This has nothing to do with the Woodstock Ag Society or their members, but everything to do with rising costs and limited resources during that time in our schedule,' said a statement from Campbell Amusements. 'After the COVID-19 pandemic, which hit our industry particularly hard, the company restructured to one unit instead of two. This makes it very difficult to set up in multiple locations at once, which is something we had to do to provide the fair for Woodstock. The public feedback we received from our last few years, as well as decreased attendance and rising costs, led us to the decision to remove the stop from our route,' it added. 'We were really shocked,' said society president Casee Killing. 'We received an email, I think it was January 16, letting us know they are no longer able to participate in our fair this year. There had been no prior communication and the last time we had talked to them was at last year's fair, and they had no concerns at that point. They didn't even warn us this might be an issue.' Killing added she was told by the Brantford-based company that over the past few years it was hard for them to put on the type of show they wanted to. 'They overextended themselves as that week they are at the Barrie fair and send rides to the Canadian National Exhibition. So, we were getting their B-rides and they were renting some to bring us because they just didn't have enough. During COVID, they sold a lot of them, so they have fewer rides now.' Killing added Campbell Amusements also expressed concern about changes to the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) allows Canadian employers to hire foreign nationals to fill labour shortages when no Canadian citizens or permanent residents are available. 'They were worried about having enough workers to safely run the rides.' Campbell's statement to the Echo backs up Killing's claim. 'It is also unknown if we will be able to participate in the foreign worker program due to recent changes affecting our industry. This will severely limit our ability to safely provide for multiple locations.' Killing explained the organization reached out to several other midway companies, but they were all booked from August 21 to 24. She added she the search for a new provider was a learning experience. 'There really aren't many midways left. We thought it would be an easy process to find a new one but figured out quickly that wasn't the case. Danny from Campbell's actually tried to help us find another one but everyone was pretty much booked. They have long-standing contracts.' She explained they haven't stopped looking for a replacement for this year and 2026 but added the prospect of providing rides for the kids this year is bleak. Despite that, Killing said there are plenty of attractions to provide a good time for people of all ages. 'We are bringing back many of our regular events. The demolition derby and tractor pull are continuing and Old McDonald's Barn, where we connect the urban community to the rural community and get up close and personal with some farm animals.' The event will also feature a petting zoo, a family-friendly train ride, a variety of inflatables, car show and Soper Creek Animal Rescue, a wildlife rehabilitation hospital licensed by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry and Canadian Wildlife Services. Its mission is to rescue, treat and release sick, injured, orphaned and abandoned native wildlife. The fair's theme for 2025 is 'A Family A'Fair', and Killing added they are still in search of volunteers and anyone interested will be able to sign up online at . A link will also be posted on the organization's Facebook page. 'We are kind of in a generation now where we don't like to make phone calls and like to sign up for appointments without having to talk to someone, so we are going to roll out where people can pick a day and time to volunteer. We want them to enjoy their volunteer experience and we think this will help. As usual, admission for all ages to the fair will be free. Campbell Amusements added it was a tough decision to pull out of the Woodstock Fair. 'The Woodstock Fair and the community have been a part of our company history for the last 50 years, and it was a very difficult decision to make. We thank the fair board and the community for their years of support. We have made sure to let the fair board know that we would be open to returning in the future if anything changes,' explained the company. Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request.

Crowley adds new U.S. Northeast ocean service with Central America
Crowley announced the launch of its first-ever shipping route connecting the U.S. Northeast with Central America. This expansion of ocean shipping services marks a significant step for Crowley, the U.S.-flag operator, as it taps into the burgeoning market between the Port of Philadelphia's Gloucester Marine Terminal and key ports in Guatemala and Honduras. By deploying its advanced Avance class vessels, Jacksonville-based Crowley promises five-day transits, ensuring the most timely deliveries of diverse goods, ranging from food and apparel to industrial products and consumer goods. Non-stop service via Crowley's state-of-the-art LNG-powered vessels translates directly into reduced inventory idle time and lower supply chain costs for businesses. 'This means less inventory idle time, lower supply chain costs, and longer shelf life for critical products like fresh produce,' said Reinier van Delden, vice president of commercial operations at Crowley Logistics, in a release. The inaugural voyage was scheduled to sail July 3 from Central America to Gloucester City, New Jersey, and will be operated in partnership with Gloucester Terminals LLC, a Holt Logistics Corp. client. The new transport corridor creates more streamlined pathways for the Northeast Atlantic business owners to engage with international markets. 'Marine service is an important pillar of Philadelphia's economy,' said Christian Holt, a sales representative for Gloucester and Holt, in the release, emphasizing the role this route will play in fostering economic growth and creating jobs within the Philadelphia-South Jersey communities. The new route fortifies Crowley's long-standing operations in the Northeast Atlantic, providing regular container services to regions including Puerto Rico, the Eastern Caribbean, and the Virgin Islands.
