Shell Oil Co. President John Hofmeister on Tuesday delivered Big Oil’s message to the masses.
The message: The way to lower oil and gasoline prices is to increase supplies. And one of the best ways to do that could be to allow oil companies greater access to environmentally sensitive areas, such as Alaska, the Gulf of Mexico and other places without the warfare and political opposition that exist in other parts of the world.
“There are still areas to be developed” for oil exploration and drilling “that can be developed safely and environmentally securely,” Hofmeister said during an Orlando Regional Chamber of Commerce luncheon at the Orlando International Airport Hyatt hotel, followed by interviews with the news media.
Hofmeister said Orlando was his second stop on a 50-city tour to discuss ideas for solving the nation’s energy problems.
He also called for America to adopt of a “culture of conservation” to reduce fuel consumption. By decreasing demand and boosting supplies, it would drop oil and gasoline prices, which he said is not out of line with Shell’s business plan because it will help the economy.
“It’s our view that the more affordable energy is, the greater that economic development can occur, which, in itself, fuels demand for more energy,” Hofmeister told FLORIDA TODAY after his speech. “We believe long-term economic growth” of the nation “is the best for long-term profitability” of the company.

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.
