Shell says Scottish gas terminal due back Saturday
Wed Aug 27, 2008
Aug 27 (Reuters) – Royal Dutch Shell’s (RDSa.L: Quote, Profile, Research,Stock Buzz) gas import terminal in Scotland is on track to reopen on Saturday after mondernisation work which began in mid-August, a company spokesman said on Wednesday.
Shell’s terminal at St Fergus closed for the first time in 18 years on Aug. 18, stopping three pipelines from delivering gas from North Sea fields to Britain.
“Everything is on schedule and they are still talking about a resumption date of around Aug. 30,” the spokesman said.
The terminal typically processes over 30 million cubic metres of gas a day during peak winter demand periods.
The other two gas import terminals at St Fergus — operated by ExxonMobil (XOM.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) and Total (TOTF.PA: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) — have not been affected by the work. (Reporting by Daniel Fineren)

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.
