Exxon Mobil Corp., the world’s biggest oil company, said oil production from its $12.8 billion Sakhalin Island development offshore Russia will peak at 250,000 barrels a day by the end of this year. Crude exports from the DeKastri terminal connected by pipeline to Exxon’s Sakhalin 1 project will begin later this month, the Irving, Texas-based company said on Thursday in a statement. Exxon began pumping oil from Sakhalin’s subsea wells in October. Russia’s Natural Resources Ministry on Wednesday said it won’t allow the company to expand the boundaries of Chayvo, one of three fields at Sakhalin 1, to include new discoveries nearby. The prospects instead should be sold at auction, the ministry said. Exxon is the latest oil company targeted in Russian President Vladimir Putin’s campaign to strengthen his control of oil and natural-gas reserves.
On Sept. 5, Russian authorities sued to halt Royal Dutch Shell Plc’s $20 billion development on another part of Sakhalin Island. The boundary expansion requested by Exxon „is based on the natural outline of the primary field that is now being produced,” Exxon spokesman Robert Davis said yesterday in an e-mail. Russia’s decision „could inevitably undermine the confidence of foreign investors and have a significant negative impact on the Russian investment climate.” Exxon Mobil shares rose 51 cents to $67.69 in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. The shares have increased 20 percent this year, compared with a 3.7% rise for the Standard & Poor’s 500 index. (Bloomberg)

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.
