There is a striking similarity between Rolf’s case and the whistleblower activities of Bill Campbell, the retired Health & Safety Group Auditor of Shell International who warned Shell about evidence of false and misleading information in Shell Brent Bravo maintenance records, prior to the tragic, but avoidable explosion in which offshore workers were killed. Safety records had been routinely falsified and Shell had operated a notorious “Touch Fuck All” maintenance policy that put production (and profits) before safety.

The plight of Rolf Wilborg Ex Norwegian Petroleum Directorate regulator for the Norwegian sector offshore has been brought my attention.
There is a striking similarity between Rolf’s case and the whistleblower activities of Bill Campbell, the retired Health & Safety Group Auditor of Shell International who warned Shell about evidence of false and misleading information in Shell Brent Bravo maintenance records, prior to the tragic, but avoidable explosion in which offshore workers were killed. Safety records had been routinely falsified and Shell had operated a notorious “Touch Fuck All” maintenance policy that put production (and profits) before safety.
Rolf Wiborg says that he sent several warnings on offshore safety issues to the Norwegian parliament’s Energy & Environment Committee (and the Norwegian Auditor General).
Bill Campbell circulated a series of warning emails to MP’s serving in the House of Commons and in the Scottish Parliament. Many supported his campaign for offshore safety. Mr Campbell also supplied written evidence to the House of Commons Select Committee on Works and Pensions, also relating to offshore safety.
Wiborg is apparently currently intent on confronting the Ministry of Petroleum & Energy for Norway by taking the government department to court.
According to Upstream Online, he is “fighting to get his job back, claiming that his sacking from the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD) in October was unjustified and a misguided response to letters he sent to the parliament and the auditor general.”
Rolf Wiborg and Bill Campbell are both men of the highest integrity who have put the safety of offshore workers before their own well-being.

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.
