Shell: record 2Q net profit of $11.6 billion
The Associated PressPublished: July 31, 2008
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands: Royal Dutch Shell PLC has booked a record net profit of US$11.6 billion in the second quarter, up 33 percent from the same period a year ago, thanks to high oil prices and the weak dollar.
The year ago figure was US$8.67 billion.
The company says its selling price per barrel of oil was around US$112, up from US$64 a year earlier.
Chief Executive Jeroen van der Veer called the results “competitive” in a statement Thursday.
A “good operating performance, combined with increased oil and gas prices, offset the impact of weaker” results from refineries, he said.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
