Retired Shell official accuses company of ‘more leaks than the White House’

Bill Campbell, retired HSE GROUP AUDITOR, Shell International, comments on Paddy Briggs damning conclusion about Shell FAT CATS

The Lonely Elephant

Prelude may or may not turn out to be a white elephant but certainly from the leaked transformation documents it would appear it will be in any case a lonely elephant. 20 some years in gestation it appears that mega FLNG projects are out. As for the fat cats Paddy if Shell continues to leak (Pernis et al), more leaks than the White House, the fat cats may not be around. Are they taking their eye of the ball – who is running the business, with all this transformation stuff and reported loss of common sense and experience I read about on this website from current employees, it makes you think.

Reply by John Donovan: Bill is right about the corrosive leaks from the Pernis Refinery and disgruntled Shell staff.  I assume ‘et al’ includes Brent Charlie. With regards to the leakage of Shell’s transformation plans, I draw attention to the related wide-spread coverage of the recent Reuters syndicated article below and note the significant news coverage from India, where Shell is apparently moving its HQ (half joking). There were many other news articles stemming from the same leak to this website.
