ROYAL DUTCH SHELL will this Thursday come under pressure from investors to reveal the impact of selling half its share in the $22 billion (£11 billion) Sakhalin-2 gas project in Russia. Analysts believe the sale could hit Shell’s oil and gas reserves by 1 billion barrels — almost 9% of its proven reserves.
Last month Gazprom, Russia’s state-backed gas group, paid $7.4 billion to take majority control of the Sakhalin project. The sale came after pressure from the Russian government and led Shell to halve its stake to 27.5%.
Shell is understood to have about 11.5 billion barrels of proven reserves under the US Securities and Exchange Commission rules. However, the oil giant prefers to define its reserves in terms of potential resources, which it estimates at some 60 billion barrels.
Shell is expected to announce full-year pre-tax profits of $25 billion — a record for a UK-listed company — up from $23 billion in 2005. But underlying profits for the fourth quarter are likely to have slipped by 3%.

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.
