New Delhi, Jan 18 (IANS) Global hydrocarbons major Shell is scaling up its research centre in Bangalore to bring it on par with its two other centres of excellence in the US and Netherlands, a company official said Thursday.
‘We will grow to 500 people by this year end and will be covering all technical aspects. The Shell Technology Institute will be a virtual reality centre,’ Bob Frith, president of Shell Technologies, said here.
The centre, which opened in September, currently has 200 employees.
‘We also intend to develop it into a global research centre. We will grow to 1,000 full time employees in three years,’ Firth told reporters on the margins of the Petrotech 2007 exposition.
‘This centre is to be staffed by 90 percent Indians and the state-of-the-art research centre will be a virtual reality centre which will undertake modelling of reservoirs for exploration.’
The Shell official said that its India centre would undertake international assignments and that the first project was on its way.

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.
