The Times: Big shot: “Another oil discovery in India, another 6 per cent jump in Cairn’s share price.”
August 11, 2004
WHILE Bill Gammell, Cairn Energy’s chief executive, was enjoying his summer holiday at the Fife seaside resort of Elie yesterday, his shareholders were basking in the FTSE’s sun. Another oil discovery in India, another 6 per cent jump in Cairn’s share price.
It has been a stellar year for all associated with Cairn, in particular Edinburgh-based Mr Gammell, who set up the company 24 years ago. Along with Cairn shareholders, who have watched the company’s share price almost quadruple this year, Mr Gammell, 51, can count the good fortune of some astute management. His million Cairn shares are now worth £14 million, a far cry from when he and his senior management team decided to buy Shell’s interest in the Rajasthan exploration block, western India, for £3.9 million two years ago. The move proved Cairn’s making.
Mr Gammell, a former Scotland rugby union international, is an economics and accountancy graduate from Stirling University and worked for Arthur Young McClelland Moores before setting up Cairn as an exploration vehicle.

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.
