Thursday 10:25 AM As Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.A +0.8%) buys time to consider its response to PTT's bid for Cove Energy (CNVGF.PK), it must choose whether to make further divestments and/or delay its Australian LNG interests to pursue its Mozambique ambitions. RBC says PTT's offer values Cove's stake in a major gas field off Mozambique's coast at $3.4/boe vs. a normal valuation of $2.5-$3/boe for such assets.

Thursday 3:27 AM Shell (RDS.A) extends its $1.8B offer to acquire Cove Energy (CNVGF.PK) to June 13, after Thailand's PTT Exploration came in with a higher $1.9B bid yesterday, sending Cove shares +11.2% in London to 249p, above PTT's 240p/share bid. Some expect Shell to pony up as much as $2.5B; Shell plays coy - it's "considering its options and will make a further announcement if appropriate." (previously)

Wednesday 2:40 PM Cove Energy (CNVGF.PK) shares end +11.2% in London to 249p, above the new 240p/share bid from Thailand's PTT and indicating investors think Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.A -2%) may raise the offer. Heard On The Street's Andrew Peaple calculates Shell could yet pay up to $2.5B for Cove; it also has more firepower than PTT, with net debt to equity of 9.9% vs. PTT's 33%.

Monday 12:29 PM With just days remaining before a deal deadline, Cove Energy (CNVGF.PK) says it continues to believe the $1.8B offer from Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.A, RDS.B) is in the best interests of shareholders. Cove's earlier announcement that it found even more gas on its license in Mozambique has not sparked a bid battle for the company.
