The stakes are high…
If the London judge hearing the preliminary arguments finds for the king then, in around one year’s time, Shell will have to defend itself in the British courts. The result could be a massive clean-up of Ogale, possibly millions of dollars’ damages and other polluted communities bringing their cases to Britain.

Torres Advanced Enterprise Solutions (Torres) was today awarded a multi-year select supplier contract with Shell International B.V. (Shell) to provide long-term, full-spectrum security services for their operations in South America. Specific countries of focus will be Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela. The contract, which was decided after an extensive selection process in which Shell vetted twenty-one multinational security companies, was awarded to Torres based upon its quality service record and competitive pricing. Torres successfully completed the technical evaluation process and commercial pricing rounds before being awarded the contract.

In 451 CE, the great Roman general Flavius Aetius rallied a motley army of imperial troops and barbarian allies, and halted the advance of Attila’s Huns at the Catalaunian Plains in Gaul, buying the empire some time and temporarily interrupting its long-term decline. This week’s Opec meeting in Vienna had something of the same feel about it.
Opec’s power peaked in the 1970s, and the US shale oil revolution of the past half-decade has threatened to consign the cartel’s influence to history. But by agreeing a deal to cut production on Wednesday, the Opec ministers showed that if they all acted together they could still bend the oil markets to their will, at least for a while.
