The Sakhalin Papers XC: Built but Not Approved — Germany’s November 2021 Decision and the Regulatory Battle Over Nord Stream 2

On 26 October 2021, Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs concluded that certifying Nord Stream 2 would not endanger German or European gas supplies. Just three weeks later, Germany’s energy regulator suspended certification of the pipeline’s operator. The original government records reveal that these were not contradictory decisions: they concerned different legal requirements. Meanwhile, Polish and Ukrainian energy companies had been admitted to the proceedings, raising objections to Gazprom’s control of the project. The documentary trail shows how a completed pipeline, backed by almost €9.5 billion in planned investment, remained unable to begin commercial operations — and how Shell’s substantial financing ultimately became a $1.126 billion write-down.

The Sakhalin Papers LXXXIX: The Certificate That Never Came — How US Sanctions Forced DNV GL Out of Nord Stream 2

On 4 January 2021, one of the world’s leading independent technical assurance companies announced that it was withdrawing from Nord Stream 2. Norway-based DNV GL had been engaged to verify the pipeline’s safety and technical integrity. New American sanctions legislation meant it could no longer complete that work or issue the intended certificate. Yet a subsequent Danish government announcement reveals an important qualification: by October 2021, one of the pipeline’s two lines had satisfied Denmark’s certification-related conditions. The authenticated corporate disclosures, US legislation, Danish regulatory records and German judicial proceedings reveal how Nord Stream 2 encountered successive obstacles even after physical construction was completed.

The Sakhalin Papers LXXXVIII: The Thirty-Day Exit — Washington’s October 2020 Sanctions Ultimatum and the Companies Caught Between Two Legal Systems

On 20 October 2020, the United States gave companies supporting Nord Stream 2 a sharply defined choice: end certain activities within 30 days or face potential sanctions. The warning extended to businesses supplying equipment, facilities and services to the vessels needed to complete the Russian gas pipeline. An examination of the original Federal Register notice, Shell’s financial disclosures, German parliamentary records and contemporaneous reporting reveals how Washington used an expansive interpretation of existing legislation to intensify pressure on a project already facing serious regulatory and political difficulties.

China gets the promises, Germany gets the insolvency proceedings, and Shell gets to explain why both developments are entirely consistent with its energy-transition strategy.

25 October 2026

Shell has discovered an exciting new frontier in the global energy transition.

China.

A country where electric vehicles are booming, renewable-energy technologies are advancing rapidly, and international energy companies are understandably eager to participate.

On 22 October 2026, China Daily published an upbeat account of Shell’s plans to deepen its involvement in China’s energy transformation.

There were discussions of innovation, partnerships, cleaner technologies, charging infrastructure and a more sustainable future. read more

The Sakhalin Papers LXXXIV: The Foreseeability Test — What Shell and Its Partners Knew Before the Nord Stream 2 Investment Was Written Off

Shell’s own records establish that its final Nord Stream 2 loan instalments were made in the second quarter of 2020. By then, European legislation had changed, the project was facing legal challenges, American sanctions had disrupted construction and Germany’s energy regulator was deciding whether the pipeline qualified for an exemption. A subsequent European court judgment raises an important question: how much of this risk was foreseeable?

The Sakhalin Papers LXXXI: The Pipeline That Refuses to Die — Shell’s Gazprom Partnership, a Former Stasi Officer and the American Plans to Revive Nord Stream

Nine years after Shell helped finance Nord Stream 2, and four years after explosions crippled the Baltic pipelines, an extraordinary new chapter is unfolding. On 8 October 2026, Reuters reported discussions involving senior American and Russian figures about bringing US investors into the Nord Stream infrastructure. The reported participants included Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, and Kirill Dmitriev, a close adviser to Vladimir Putin. Germany immediately reiterated its opposition. Then, on 17 October, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak declared that restoring gas supplies through Nord Stream remained technically possible. Behind these developments lies a remarkable documentary trail: Shell’s original 2017 financing agreement, former East German intelligence officer Matthias Warnig’s leadership of Nord Stream 2, American sanctions, a $1.126 billion Shell write-down, Swiss restructuring proceedings and an increasingly complicated battle with European regulators. read more

The Sakhalin Papers LXXX: Who Pays for a Dead Pipeline? Shell’s $1.126 Billion Loss, a €579 Million Insurance Defeat and the Battle Over Nord Stream’s Financial Remains

Four years after explosions devastated the Nord Stream pipelines, the financial consequences continue to work their way through European courts. A remarkable judgment delivered by London’s High Court on 6 July 2026 rejected a €579 million insurance claim arising from the destruction of Nord Stream 1. In Switzerland, the operator of Nord Stream 2 has survived threatened bankruptcy through a court-approved agreement with creditors, including the Western energy companies that helped finance its construction. Meanwhile, a German court has refused to allow the pipeline operators to join the criminal prosecution arising from the sabotage as additional complainants. For Shell shareholders, these developments raise an important question: what became of the company’s $1.126 billion Nord Stream 2 financing exposure, written down months before the explosions? read more

8 October 2026

Shell’s latest filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission reveals a striking financial contrast: record indicative refining margins, approximately $2.5 billion in German carbon-certificate payments, impairments affecting biogas investments, and further exploration write-offs. The disclosures raise important questions about the economics of Shell’s energy transition—and where the company is actually making its money.

Shell plc has submitted its third-quarter 2026 trading update to the US Securities and Exchange Commission, offering investors an unusually revealing snapshot of the competing financial forces shaping one of the world’s largest oil and gas companies. read more

Shell’s German Refinery Exit Hits Another Dead End: Unimot Talks Collapse Over Schwedt Stake

Shell has been trying to sell its 37.5% interest in Germany’s strategically important PCK Schwedt refinery for years. A 2021 deal was thwarted by Rosneft. A 2023 agreement with Prax collapsed. Now, according to Bloomberg reporting carried by Reuters, advanced negotiations with Poland’s Unimot have also ended without a sale.

By John Donovan

There are corporate disposals, difficult corporate disposals — and then there is Shell’s 37.5% stake in the PCK Schwedt refinery.

Shell has been attempting to get out of this particular German refining investment for years.

Unfortunately for Shell, the stake appears remarkably reluctant to leave.

Reuters reported on 27 August 2026, citing Bloomberg and people familiar with the matter, that Shell has ended negotiations with Polish energy group Unimot over a possible sale of its 37.5% interest in the refinery. According to Bloomberg, the talks began in 2023, were still at an advanced stage as recently as February 2026, but ended months ago. Shell declined to comment to Reuters, while Unimot had not responded when Reuters published its report. (in.marketscreener.com) read more

ChatGPT: Countries where Shell has been associated with spying, intelligence gathering or covert security activity

A necessary distinction

Shell operates in a dangerous world. Major energy companies face genuine risks from terrorism, sabotage, kidnapping, cyberattack, industrial espionage, hostile state activity and threats to offshore installations, pipelines and employees. No responsible critic would suggest that Shell should abandon legitimate security precautions or fail to protect its workforce and assets.

The concern examined in this series is different. It is whether Shell has sometimes crossed the line from proportionate corporate security into covert intelligence-gathering, surveillance or espionage directed not at terrorists or hostile states, but at campaigners, whistleblowers, trade unionists, journalists, critics and ordinary members of the public. read more

EXTRACTS FROM JOHN DONOVAN BOOK “SIR HENRI DETERDING AND THE NAZI HISTORY OF ROYAL DUTCH SHELL”

Mar 2nd, 2026

by John Donovan.

Comments are off for this post

In the years leading up to WW2, the Dutch founder of the Royal Dutch Shell Group, Sir Henri Deterding became an ardent Nazi. He financially backed the Third Reich and met directly with Hitler on behalf of Royal Dutch Shell.

As a major financial contributor to Nazi Germany in pre-WW2 years, the Royal Dutch Shell Group, under Dutch leadership, arguably had some indirect responsibility for the death toll in the subsequent war, in which over 50 million people perished.

Shell publicly boasted at the time about the importance of its financial contribution to the German economy. The claims were made by Shell in Germany while the country was under Nazi control.

In years leading up to WW2, Shell conspired with partners, Standard Oil, and German chemical giant I.G. Farben, to covertly import oil products, including airplane fuel, from the US into Nazi Germany. The US government was kept in the dark.

I.G. Farben supplied the Zyklon-B gas used in the Holocaust to kill millions of people.

The portrayal in 2007 by Shell’s paid historians of a distant relationship between Deterding and Hitler, in which all attempts by Deterding to meet with Hitler were rebuffed is simply untrue.

In fact, their meetings included a four-day one-on-one summit held at Hitler’s mountain retreat, as reported by Reuters in 1934.

Deterding has been described by independent authors as “a hardline Nazi revered and ultimately mourned by Hitler.” That description is confirmed by the evidence within this book and evidence accessible via links.

There are credible allegations that the Royal Dutch Shell Group, under the control of Dutch directors, used forced labor at its German subsidiary, Rhenania-Ossag. Many of its directors and staff were fanatical Nazis.

Royal Dutch Shell collaborated in the annexation and occupation of sovereign countries by the Nazis – Austria and Czechoslovakia – before the outbreak of WW2.

The donations and financial contributions to the Third Reich were all carried out under the control of Dutch directors of companies within the Royal Dutch Shell Group.

In 1936, while still a director of multiple Royal Dutch Shell group companies, Sir Henri purchased the Castle Dobbin estate North of Berlin for 1,050,000 Reich marks from Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands.

Deterding moved into Castle Dobbin with his young German wife, his secretary, a fanatical Nazi said by one source to be a former private secretary of Hitler’s.

Sir Henri’s friend Hermann Göring, the founder of the Gestapo, regularly visited Castle Dobbin to go hunting with him. Deterding generously gave Göring the Rominten Hunting Lodge in East Prussia as a spectacular gift. Kaiser Wilhelm II once owned it.

In 1936 and 1937, Sir Henri – while still a director of multiple companies within the Royal Dutch Shell Group, in which he held a controlling interest – made huge donations of food (“millions of tonnes”) to Nazi Germany as part of the “Winter Help” scheme. A New York Times report in June 1937 (“Deterding to Distribute More Food in Germany”) specifically linked the food donations to Germany’s rearmament policy.

The massive donations enabled significant funds to be diverted at a time when the Nazi regime was engaged in urgent rearmament of its military might.

Seven thousand railway wagons were used in the first immense delivery.

Deterding died just before the outbreak of WW2. He was honored by a Nazi ceremonial funeral at Castle Dobbin in February 1939. It was attended by a full contingent of Royal Dutch Shell Group directors mingling with Nazi military officers.

A glowing tribute to Sir Henri on behalf of the German nation was inscribed on a wreath sent by Adolf Hitler.

The Bishop who conducted the funeral service was a supporter of Hitler and a rabid anti-Semite.

Film footage of the Nazi funeral spectacular exists.

Fears that the Nazis intended to exploit the death of Sir Henri, just before the start of WW2, to seize control of the Royal Dutch Shell Group, were well founded. The UK National Archives has kindly given permission for related documents and correspondence to be featured within this book.

Dutch directors of the Royal Dutch Shell Group engaged in anti-Semitic policies against Shell employees and were also guilty of collaboration and appeasement.

Royal Dutch Shell employees in the Netherlands were instructed to complete a form that for some amounted to a self-declared death warrant. Many did not survive the war.

The Nazis did succeed in gaining control over Dobbin Castle.

In the latter part of WW2, Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel, SS leader Heinrich Himmler and General Alfred Jodl, Chief of the Operations Staff of the Armed Forces High Command, were all stationed at Dobbin Castle.

Hitler’s final despairing message from his Berlin bunker, a day before he committed suicide, was sent to Field Marshal Keitel at Dobbin Castle, whilst it was still owned by the Deterding family. Strangely, that somehow seems appropriate.

Evidence was on display at Castle Dobbin, signed by Hitler, confirming Deterding’s financial support for the Nazis. Also a personal testimony by Herman Göring acknowledging the generosity of his friend and benefactor, Sir Henri Deterding.

The close friendship between Herman Göring and Sir Henri Deterding has been confirmed in a book published in 2015 authored by the grandson of Henry van der Waerden, Shell’s Director for Europe under Sir Henri Deterding. The content is partly based on family records, including correspondence with Deterding.

Please see the related article “Henry van Waerden, the Shell executive who defied Deterding and his Nazi ambitions.”

Shell’s HQ in Copenhagen, Denmark, was used in WW2 as the HQ for the dreaded Nazi secret police, the Gestapo. “Shellhus” was bombed and destroyed by the RAF on 21 March 1945. It had been used for the torture of Danish citizens.

At the time of the RAF bombing raid – Operation Carthage, Shell’s businesses in occupied Europe were under the control of Nazi administrators, some of whom ended up as executives in Shell’s German subsidiary Rhenania-Ossag after WW2 ended.

The above information was first published by John Donovan several years ago in defiance of litigation threats by Michiel Brandjes, a senior lawyer and Company Secretary of Royal Dutch Shell Plc. Shell prudently decided not to sue.

Should Shell apologise for antisemitic conduct and its support for the Nazis?

I strongly believe that Royal Dutch Shell should be held accountable for its outrageous antisemitic actions against its own employees, which cost some of them their lives. The same applies to Shell’s huge financial support for Nazi Germany that contributed to the deaths of some 50 million victims in WW2, including those poor souls who perished in the Holocaust. Shell’s leader, Sir Henri Deterding, was an ardent Nazi feted by Adolf Hitler. Shell has never apologised or expressed any remorse. read more

QUESTION TO GROK: What can you tell me about the innovative use of AI by John Donovan in the Donovan Shell feud?

Feb 5th, 2026

Comments are off for this post

Question put to Grok 5 February 2026: What can you tell me about the innovative use of AI by John Donovan in the Donovan Shell feud? The answer follows, along with additional related information offered by Grok.

The long-standing feud between John Donovan and Royal Dutch Shell (now Shell plc) dates back to the 1980s and 1990s, stemming from business disputes over promotional ideas developed by Donovan’s company, Don Marketing. These included concepts like the Shell Smart loyalty card, leading to multiple lawsuits for intellectual property theft, settled out of court. Donovan has since maintained websites like royaldutchshellplc.com as vast archives of Shell-related documents, leaks, and criticisms, covering scandals such as reserves overstatements, environmental issues, and alleged corporate espionage against him (including Shell’s use of firms like Hakluyt for surveillance). This activism has evolved into what Donovan describes as a “bot war” in recent years, particularly escalating in 2025–2026 with innovative AI applications to perpetuate and amplify the conflict. read more
