According to the lawsuit, Shell Global Solutions International B.V., Shell Exploration And Production Services B.V., Shell International Exploration And Production B.V., Shell Sakhalin Services B.V., Shell Sakhalin Holdings B.V., UK-based Shell entities, Shell Energy Europe Ltd and Russia's Shell Neftegaz Development LLC are defendants.

Ltd and the government of Russia's Sakhalin Region. It is not specified what relief the plaintiff is seeking or what the subject matter of the dispute is. The lawsuit was filed on Wednesday. Shell was involved in the Sakhalin-2 project, but in February 2022 the company announced its intention to exit its joint ventures with Russia's Gazprom and related entities, including its 27.5% stake in the Sakhalin-2 liquefied natural gas facility, and 50% stake in the Salym Petroleum Development and the Gydan Energy venture.
