Shell to keep refinery shut during investigations

And it won’t be opened until Shell is confident that it is safe to do so.

Royal Dutch Shell Plc shut down the Pulau Bukom plant after the fire started on September 28. Fuel shipments were also suspended, and the oil company is said to be talking to customers over their supply needs.

Meanwhile Shell spokeswoman Serene Loo was quoted in a Bloomberg report as saying, “We do not expect any of the units to be restarted until a thorough investigation has been done and we are confident that it is safe to do so.”

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
