The above slide appeared in a 62 page Royal Dutch Shell PowerPoint presentation prepared in June 2000: “Excom Early Look Business Plan 2000”.
It is clear from the content of the presentation that Shell was well aware of the potential dangers ahead.
Unfortunately is is equally clear from page 4 of a current 30 page Wood Mackenzie Executive Summary of Shell (dated November 2013) that Shell failed to take heed of the internal alarm bells rung in 2000.
On the same page Shell is taken to task over its unlikely ability to create any significant growth bearing in mind several past years of flat-lining or diminishing production and warns about the related challenges facing the new CEO Ben van Beurden.
The highly informative Wood Mackenzie Executive Summary Report on Royal Dutch Shell, available on subscription, contains positive, as well as negative expert opinion about the oil giant.

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.
