start flowing 的意思是

It is disingenuous of Shell to inform us that revenues from the Natural Gas Project will not start flowing until early next year.

请问这个句子的意思是，特别的start flowing 的意思是？谢谢专家！

理解本句的重要应该注意两个词：一个是 revenues（收入，收益）；另一个是 flow（流动）。“有收入流动”意思就是“产生收入”。所以句意为：

It is disingenuous of Shell to inform us that revenues from the Natural Gas Project will not start flowing until early next year.

壳牌公司不诚实地告诉大家，天然气项目要到明年年初才会产生收益。

或：壳牌公司非常不诚实，它告诉大家天然气项目要到明年年初才会产生收益。
