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) Comment!
