Oil and Mining Lease (OML) 18 and "related facilities in the Eastern Niger Delta" were sold to Eroton Exploration &Production Company Limited.
Eroton also acquired French oil major Total's 10percent stake and Italy's Eni's 5 percent stake in OML 18, giving it a total 45 percent holding, Shell said in a statement.
OML 18 produced around 14,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2014. Shell announced last October that it had signed sales agreements for all five Nigerian oil assets it put up for sale following a 2013 review of its business in Nigeria. The Anglo-Dutch company completed the sale of OML 24 in November.
