Is Shell Helix Ultra Racing oil the same as BMW Twinpower?

I've always used TWS/Edge pro (then FST now supercar) and I'm tempted to do an intermediate oil change this weekend.

Now Shell has the contract with BMW the dealers stock Twinpower 10w-60, however is this the same as Helix Ultra Racing which is readily available at eurocarparts who happen to have a nice discount running at present :)

Has anybody bought the official oil from a dealer recently and know how much it costs?

Welcome any advice or recommendations :)
