Shell (RDS.A) Receives Europe’s First Carbon-Neutral LNG Delivery
Zacks Equity Research
Royal Dutch Shell Plc RDS.A, through its subsidiary Shell Global LNG, accepted the delivery of the first carbon-neutral liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) in Europe from Gazprom.
Notably, Gazprom is a global energy company and is recognized as one of the largest producers and exporters of LNG in Russia.
The carbon-neutral gas had been delivered at the Dragon terminal in Wales, which is a LNG regasification terminal in the U.K., owned by Shell. Importantly, this will allow Shell to further supply it to the domestic energy markets in the U.K.
The Russian LNG was formed carbon-free by neutralizing the emissions arising from its production and transportation. Generally, carbon-neutral LNG includes businesses, which support nature-based projects that attempt to lower emissions to balance out those arising from the exploration and production of natural gas.
Shell and Russian energy giant Gazprom are offsetting the environmental impacts of the delivery through the Verified Carbon Standard and the Climate, Community and Biodiversity carbon credit standards.
Notably, Shell has already delivered seven carbon-neutral cargoes in Asia and this shipment acknowledges the fact that natural gas helps to combat climate change and its impacts as it emits 45-55% less greenhouse gas emissions and lower than one-tenth of the air pollutants than coal if used to produce electricity.

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.
