AFX Europe (Focus): Shell may undertake 1 bln usd Singapore petrochem project on its own – report
Sept 14, 2004
SINGAPORE (AFX) – Shell Chemicals may build its third petrochemical cracker facility in Singapore on its own if its existing partner Sumitomo Chemical decides not to participate in the 1 bln usd project, the Business Times reported, citing a senior Shell Chemicals executive.
Shell Chemicals and Sumitomo Chemicals are partners in two existing petrochemical crackers on Jurong Island, Singapore’s petrochemical hub, but Sumitomo said in May that it was not keen on investing in a third facility in Singapore.
Shell Chemicals executive vice president Tan Ek Kia told the newspaper that there are several options for the project.
“One is that Shell Chemicals will move into the next phase (of the project) alone,” Tan said.
The project’s feasibility study has been completed, he added.
“The most attractive point is that the plant will be able to use various feedstock, based on full integration with existing Bukom refinery… This will generate cost competitiveness,” Tan 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.
