Opinion by Gerald E. Marsh
CHICAGO — If Congress is going to subsidize energy to free us from dependence on foreign oil, it should — at the very least — spend our hard-earned taxpayer dollars on something that will work.
The unfortunate truth is that neither ethanol nor any other so-called renewable alternative energy now being discussed on Capitol Hill is likely to make any significant contribution to our energy needs.
Royal Dutch Shell CEO, Jeroen van der Veer
Oman is set to become an important centre for developing economical and effective enhanced oil recovery (EOR), according to Royal Dutch Shell’s Chief Executive Jeroen van der Veer in a viewpoint article in Emerging Oman 2007, the authoritative publication produced by Oxford Business Group (OBG) the UK-based publishing, research and consultancy service.
‘Shell recently established an EOR research centre in the sultanate and Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) is undertaking a major EOR project to raise recovery at Harweel as much as fourfold. Another major EOR project, using steam to recover perhaps a billion barrels of oil, is also underway in the Mukhaizna field. This openness to new technology extends across all areas of operations and typifies Oman’s imaginative approach to the development of its natural resources,’ says Mr van der Veer.

Have you noticed? BP is on a PR offensive.
The London-based oil titan, the most important company operating in Alaska, in recent weeks has been holding receptions and barbecues, handing out money for Little League teams and running newspaper ads across the state touting “our strong relationship with the people of Alaska.”
Despite poverty and strife, demand opens doors with China, the West

PORT HARCOURT, NIGERIA — Europe’s great powers once scrambled for dominance across vast, underdeveloped African lands rich in raw resources including the scarlet palm oil used to grease the first cogs of the industrial revolution.
A century later, a new group of nations are competing for a different valuable, viscous material, with sub-Saharan Africa closing in on the Persian Gulf as the prime overseas supplier of oil to the last remaining superpower.
EXTRACT: Last fall, it was environmental infractions in pipeline construction that forced Royal Dutch Shell and Japanese partners to sell a controlling stake in their $22 billion Sakhalin II oil and gas development to Gazprom, the state gas monopoly. Then, this June, BP’s local joint venture, TNK-BP, sold its share of a huge gas development after regulators threatened to revoke the license because the field was developed too slowly, which was a technical violation of the terms of TNK-BP’s license. Gazprom, again, was the beneficiary.

Nigerian gunmen who kidnapped a British girl have demanded a ransom, her mother said, while police say she may be released soon.
Oluchi Hill, a Nigerian, refused to say how much cash was sought for the safe return of Margaret Hill, 3, or who contacted her.
“Where do you expect me to get that type of money?” she told The Associated Press, weeping during the short conversation Saturday.
Police, meanwhile, said they had received information that the girl may be released by Sunday, said police commissioner Felix Ogbaudu, in charge of the oil industry center of Port Harcourt, where Margaret was kidnapped on her way to school Thursday. He did not elaborate.

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.

MORE DETAILS: After a solicitor acting for Shell threatened to make the litigation "drawn out and difficult" with the intention of draining the resources of a financially weaker opponent, my late father (Alfred Donovan) and I decided to mount a wide-ranging campaign as a counter-measure. We jointly founded the Shell Corporate Conscience Pressure Group, which nearly 15% of Shell UK retailers joined. We regularly conducted ethical surveys involving up to 1500 Shell petrol stations. All responses were opened and authenticated by an independent solicitor who supplied Affidavits confirming the results. In whole page announcements in trade magazines (examples above) we challenged Shell to commission and publish the resuits of independent research asking the same questions and offering respondents GUARANTEED anonymity. Shell never took up the invitation. Instead it asked the UK Advertising Standards Authority to investigate our Shell surveys. No problems were found.
