Unclassified RIPE
Summary
Shell Information Technology International
enterprise legacy
SHELL-3918 belongs to Shell Information Technology International B.V., the IT arm of the Shell energy group, and sits immediately beside its sibling AS3917.
What it's used for
- Shell's own corporate network. The two adjacent ASNs let the company separate parts of its global routing rather than run everything from one origin.
Notable
- An enterprise network — the address space serves a multinational's internal systems, not customers.
- Shell holds this and the number directly below it, so the pair appears as a consecutive block under a single organisation.
- Carried in the registry with legacy status, later brought under RIPE administration.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-10, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
