INTERLAKEN, Switzerland May 20 (Reuters) – Oil major Royal Dutch Shell (RDSa.L: Quote) expects the approval process for an exploratory drilling programme for Arctic waters off Alaska to take some time, Chief Executive Peter Voser said on Friday.
“We plan to drill up to 10 wells in 2012 and 2013. We are in the process for applying for the so-called permits, but this is going to take some time,” Voser said on the sidelines of the Swiss Economic Forum in Interlaken, Switzerland.
Voser reiterated that he did not expect drilling to start before 2012.
Shell has been trying to revive its Arctic exploration programme after strong opposition from local and environmental groups stymied previous drilling plans in the area.
Voser declined to comment on the BP (BP.L: Quote)’s collapsed deal with Rosneft (ROSN.MM: Quote).

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.
