Shell pushes low-sulphur fuels
ROTTERDAM, Netherlands, Aug. 14 (UPI) — A new facility in the Netherlands will contribute to an increase in the production of cleaner-burning fuels, says supermajor Royal Dutch Shell.
Royal Dutch Shell announced it would construct a $500 million hydrodesulphurization plant at the Pernis refinery in the Netherlands.
The plant will increase the production of cleaner-burning, low-sulphur fuels at the 400,000-barrel-per-day oil refinery when it comes on stream in the second half of 2011, the energy giant says.

Shells Voser Backs Rudd on Australian Emissions Plan, AFR Says
By John Viljoen
Aug. 14 (Bloomberg) — Royal Dutch Shell Plc Chief Executive Officer Peter Voser expressed support for Australias planned emissions trading system at a meeting with Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, the Australian Financial Review reported.
Voser met with Rudd and Treasurer Wayne Swan in Canberra on Aug. 12 to discuss the carbon pollution reduction system and plans to invest in Australian energy projects, the Review said, without saying where it got the information.
Voser told Rudd and Swan that Shell favored the system because it wanted policy certainty as it prepares to expand Australian operations, the report said. The Shell chiefs position appears to contrast those of LNG rivals who have argued that Rudds proposed system would impose an unfair burden on Australian gas producers in favor of overseas projects.



















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.
