Shell Spilled 26,000 Barrels Oil In 2012, Up 70% On Year -SPDC
Published January 24, 2013: Dow Jones Newswires
Shell spilled about 26,000 barrels of oil in the Niger Delta in 2012, up 70% from the previous year, according to data released this month from Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) of Nigeria.
Last year’s 198 spills were due to bunkering or operational incidents, the data showed. Spills and pipeline sabotage can lead to force measures and loading delays.
SPDC has publicly reported oil spills annually since 1995, the company said on its website.
Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSA.LN) will Jan. 30 hear the verdict on a suit by environmental group Friends of the Earth Netherlands and four Nigerian farmers over spills that took place between 2004 and 2007

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.
