Shell’s New Puppet Master in Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay: Another Greedy Exec to Oversee the Pollution Parade
Posted by John Donovan: 16 July 2024
In yet another move that proves Shell’s undying dedication to environmental devastation and corporate greed, the oil behemoth has appointed Germán Burmeister as the senior vice president and country chair for Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay. Effective August 1, Burmeister will be the latest in a long line of executives tasked with ensuring Shell’s relentless pursuit of profits at the expense of our planet.
$3.5 billion over a decade wasn’t enough for Shell’s appetite in Argentina. So, they’re throwing another $500 million into the mix for 2024 to “sustain and expand” their operations in Vaca Muerta. Because, of course, nothing says sustainable like drilling deeper and more aggressively into one of the largest shale oil reserves.
Burmeister, who has loyally served Shell for 23 years in commercial, strategic, and managerial roles across Latin America, Africa, Asia, and Europe, seems perfectly groomed for the task. After all, his recent stint as senior vice president and country chair in Kazakhstan must have given him ample practice in prioritizing profits over people and the planet.
Congratulations, Germán! We can’t wait to see how you’ll help Shell continue its legacy of “excellence” in environmental and social irresponsibility across South America.
