GAZPROM AND SHELL AGREE TO PURSUE BROADER COOPERATION

Moscow, November 30, 2010 – Alexey Miller, Chairman of the Gazprom Management
Committee, and Peter Voser, Chief Executive Officer of Royal Dutch Shell plc,
signed a protocol on strategic global cooperation. This agreement establishes
basic guidelines for the companies’ broader collaboration.

Amongst the opportunities the companies will consider are:
•	Further development of bilateral cooperation in exploration and production of
hydrocarbons in western Siberia and the far east of Russia
•	Cooperation in the downstream oil products business in Russia and Europe, as
well as Gazprom participation in Shell upstream projects outside of Russia.

“This agreement is a vivid example of the mutually beneficial development of
strategic partnership between the world’s largest energy companies. Ahead of us,
we have new large-scale projects and growing joint presence in new markets”,
said Alexey Miller.

“This underscores the strong partnership our companies have built in recent
years,” said Mr. Voser. “Russia is an important area for new energy development
for Shell and I expect it will play a big role in meeting the world’s growing
demand for oil and gas in the years ahead.”

Shell and Gazprom will set up joint working groups to further develop these
opportunities.

significant influence but not control are referred to as “associated companies”
or “associates” and companies in which Shell has joint control are referred to
as “jointly controlled entities”. In this press release, associates and jointly

term “Shell interest” is used for convenience to indicate the direct and/or
indirect (for example, through our 24% shareholding in Woodside Petroleum Ltd.)
ownership interest held by Shell in a venture, partnership or company, after
exclusion of all third-party interest.
