--Oil majors Shell, Eni, Exxon Mobil and TotalEnergies have
prepared a draft settlement what would stop Kazakh authorities
pursuing a potential $5 billion environmental fine, Bloomberg
reports, citing unnamed sources.
--The draft includes a pledge for additional investment in
social projects amounting to $110 million over the next two years,
Bloomberg reports.
--The settlement would follow the companies' legal victory last
year, after which the government continued to pursue the fine at
the appeals court, according to Bloomberg.

available to comment when contacted by Dow Jones Newswires.
