Bu Alfred Donovan and John Donovan
We recently published an article in which Shell was praised for setting up this website: Shell Actually Implements a Blog!
Dow Jones Newswires has also described royaldutchshellplc.com as the “company web site”
Now the Asian Tribune has described us as “an international news website of Royal Dutch Shell Plc”
We thought that it was obvious from the content that it is not a Royal Dutch Shell owned website, but it seems we will have to try harder.
Some confusion may have arisen from the following endorsement of the Donovan’s and the Shell Blog by a hapless Shell official:
This website and sisters royaldutchshellplc.com, shellnazihistory.com, royaldutchshell.website, johndonovan.website, and shellnews.net, are owned by John Donovan. There is also a Wikipedia segment.Their website, royaldutchshellplc.com is an excellent source of group news and comment and I recommend it far above what our own group internal comms puts out.

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.
