Dear John,
As a Shell insider I need to stay anonymous but I will point you to the right story.
As you possible know, there are export restrictions to export software and technology which is US based to restricted countries like Iran, Sudan, Syria, North Korea and Cuba. Shell violates this export restrictions as Shell is using software and technology without a valid export license.
One example will be that in the joint venture from Shell and Sinopec both companies are using Microsoft Windows Operation system. They never got a valid license from the US government. It looks like that in some cases Shell take the business risk only for profit to make business with terrorists. read more

Win Mcnamee/Getty Images: Crews worked Saturday on the failed top kill effort to stanch the leaking oil well in the Gulf of Mexico. BP will try another strategy.
By LESLIE KAUFMAN and CLIFFORD KRAUSS
A version of this article appeared in print on Sunday May 30, 2010, on page A1 of the New York edition.
NEW ORLEANS In another serious setback in the effort to stem the flow of oil gushing from a well a mile beneath the Gulf of Mexico, BP engineers said Saturday that the top kill technique had failed and, after consultation with government officials, they had decided to move on to another strategy.
Doug Suttles, BPs chief operating officer for exploration and production, said at a news conference that the engineers would try once again to solve the problem with a containment cap and that it could take four to seven days for the device to be in place. read more

BP’s share price is likely to take another battering this week as the company last night admitted it was failing in its latest attempts to stop the Gulf of Mexico oil leak.
By Angela Monaghan Sunday 30 MAY 2010
Since the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig on April 20, BP shares have lost a quarter of their value, however with the latest failure of efforts to stem the flow of oil the stock is likely to continue its fall when the London market opens on Tuesday.
Speaking last night at a news conference in Louisiana, Doug Suttles, BP’s chief operating officer, said a “top kill” operation to stop the leak was having no effect. “I don’t think the amount of oil coming out has changed,” said Mr Suttles. read more

By CHRIS KAHN (AP) 28 May 2010
NEW YORK President Obama’s decision to halt new deepwater oil exploration will extend beyond the Gulf of Mexico, affecting boat captains, helicopter pilots, mechanics and others who rely on drilling for their livelihoods.
The industry employs a community of service companies with 75,000 workers in the U.S. Many of them can’t afford to rearrange their plans as easily as oil giants like BP and Shell.
“This can’t be good,” said Mark Cuevas, owner of a crew boat that transports passengers and cargo to deepwater rigs and production platforms in the Gulf. Cuevas’ business focuses on established oil platforms not affected by Obama’s announcement. That business also will suffer as service companies go after a smaller number of drilling contracts. read more

Francesca Steele: May 28, 2010
Royal Dutch Shell has agreed to buy East Resources, the US natural gas explorer, for $4.7 billion (£3.2 billion).
The Amsterdam-based oil and gas giant said that it had struck a deal with East Resources and its private equity investor Kohlberg Kravis Roberts to acquire subsidiaries which own substantially all of the business.
East Resources has more than 650,000 acres in the Marcellus shale, a rock formation running from West Virginia to New York, which is said to contain vast amounts of natural gas. It produces the equivalent of almost 10,000 barrels of oil a day. read more

Published May 28, 2010 7:20 AM
As the BP (BP: 45.38, +2.97, +7.00%) spill in the Gulf of Mexico continues, the Obama administration is reviewing its position on offshore drilling, which could add further selling pressure on BP and Royal Dutch Shell (RDS-A, RDS-B), among other oil companies. On Thursday, the President announced the suspension of most offshore drilling operations in the Gulf and postponed or canceled drilling in Virginia and in the Arctic. Meanwhile, the head of the regulatory agency Minerals Management Service resigned, suggesting a shakeup of management and an improvement in safety and regulations to come. read more

"There's nothing that's going to get us to drilling in 2010," said Curtis Smith, a Shell spokesman, when asked whether the language of the announcement left room for salvaging Shell's summer operations in Alaska.

May 28 (Bloomberg) — Royal Dutch Shell Plc, Europes largest oil producer, agreed to buy most of the assets of closely-held East Resources Inc. for $4.7 billion in cash, expanding its portfolio of U.S. unconventional gas deposits.
East Resources owns and operates more than 2,500 producing oil and gas wells in New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Colorado and is actively exploring drilling programs in Wyoming, according to its website. It has been operating in the Marcellus Shale Area for 25 years. read more

Spill Could Make BP Vulnerable
By ROB COX and CHRISTOPHER SWANN: MAY 27, 2010
BP is likely to eventually stop the flow of oil from its explosion in the Gulf of Mexico. After that happens, the autopsy of the spill will begin in earnest. But if the information dribbling into the public domain proves correct, the British energy giant will be a weakened creature so weak it will be vulnerable to a takeover.
Royal Dutch Shell and Exxon Mobil are almost certainly running the numbers. Government leaders ought to be plotting their strategy, too. read more

A new documentary on Shells Corrib Pipeline Project in Ireland is claiming that the Irish Police and regulators colluded in covering up the connection between private security working on the Corrib Gas pipeline project and an apparent assassination attempt on the Bolivian President, Evo Morales.
Shells interests in Bolivia have been threatened by Morales policy of nationalising its natural resources. However, apparently for legal reasons, the film-maker has been forced to avoid naming the oil company. read more

——————–
ROBERT, La. — New oil flow estimates by scientists studying the blown-out well in the Gulf of Mexico would make leak the worst in the nation’s history, far bigger than 11 million gallons that spilled in the Exxon Valdez disaster. U.S. Geological Survey Director Dr. Marcia McNutt says the results are preliminary, but two teams using different methods determined the well that exploded April 20 and sank two days later has spilled between 17 and 39 million gallons. read more

THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
The Obama administration, under pressure to act over the Gulf of Mexico oil disaster, is expected to announce Thursday that it will suspend consideration of any applications for exploratory drilling for oil in the Arctic until 2011.
The decision is a major blow to Royal Dutch Shell PLC, which had planned an ambitious oil-drilling program in the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas off Alaska this summer. Shell has been arguing to regulators that its operations in Alaska would face a lower risk of the kind of problems faced by BP PLC in its ill-fated Gulf of Mexico operation. read more

Obama to Extend Drilling Moratorium
By PETER BAKER and ANAHAD OCONNOR May 27, 2010
WASHINGTON President Obama plans to announce Thursday that he is extending the moratorium on permits to drill new deepwater wells for six more months and will delay or cancel specific projects off the coasts of Alaska and Virginia and in the western Gulf of Mexico, a White House official said.
Mr. Obama, who will discuss the decisions at a midday White House news conference, is taking the actions in response to the initial 30-day safety review of offshore drilling ordered after a BP rig exploded in the Gulf of Mexico, killing 11 men and opening a gusher of oil that has yet to be stopped. read more
