Shell has suffered another setback in its offshore fight with South African activists, after a court rejected parts of the company’s bid to continue exploration activity linked to seismic surveys off the Wild Coast.

The ruling extends a multi-year dispute over consultation, environmental impacts, and what remedies are required when rights are found to be violated.
