The Sakhalin Papers XXV: The QA/QC Warning — Rivers, Permits and the Pipeline Built Under Pressure

An anonymous insider alleged corners were being cut. Months later, the lenders’ own environmental consultant documented a substantial record of non-compliance.

Archive reference: SLF-2007-035
Collection: The Sakhalin Papers
Principal record: May 2007 Sakhalin II whistleblower material concerning quality assurance, quality control, river crossings, permits, erosion, geohazards and alleged suppression of non-conformance reports
Supporting record: Shell internal 11 May 2007 correspondence subsequently disclosed under the Data Protection Act; AEA Technology’s September 2007 Independent Environmental Due Diligence Report to prospective agency lenders; UK Parliamentary answers; Russian regulatory and prosecutorial reporting; Export Credits Guarantee Department v Friends of the Earth [2008] EWHC 638 (Admin)
Evidence standard: Where the whistleblower’s allegations overlap with findings by AEA, regulators or Parliamentary records, that overlap is identified precisely. Independent evidence of a non-compliance does not establish the source’s allegation that management deliberately cut corners, suppressed reports or acted dishonestly. read more

The Sakhalin Papers XXIV: “A Sakhalin Pseudo Exposé” — Shell’s Internal Response to the May 2007 Contractor Allegations

A false sender name, a real Shell investigation of authorship, detailed Starstroi claims — and a pipeline forecast that deserves to be tested separately from the accusations

Archive reference: SLF-2007-034
Collection: The Sakhalin Papers
Principal record: Shell internal correspondence of 11 May 2007 concerning an email falsely attributed to Sakhalin Energy Deputy CEO David Greer; subsequent whistleblower material published 14 May 2007
Supporting record: Shell DPA-disclosed correspondence; Sakhalin Energy Annual Review 2004; contemporaneous Oil & Gas Journal and Reuters reporting; Royal Dutch Shell and shareholder regulatory filings; later Sakhalin Energy operational milestones; Export Credits Guarantee Department v Friends of the Earth [2008] EWHC 638 (Admin)
Evidence standard: The false attribution to David Greer is established. Shell’s internal reaction is established from its own correspondence. The underlying contractor, procurement, bribery, commercial and quality-control claims remain allegations unless independently corroborated. Accuracy of a technical forecast does not authenticate unrelated accusations. read more

The Sakhalin Papers XXII: The Pecten Complaint — Shell, the Hosting Companies and the Day the Website Went Dark

A trademark complaint, a 48-hour ultimatum, a brief deactivation — and what Shell’s own internal emails do and do not prove

Archive reference: SLF-2007-032
Collection: The Sakhalin Papers
Principal record: Shell internal correspondence of 24–25 June 2007 concerning the Donovan website; Keith Ruddock correspondence of 25–26 June 2007; BlueHost deactivation notice dated 25 June 2007
Supporting record: SoftCom/MyHosting correspondence; WIPO Administrative Panel Decision D2005-0538; Shell’s confidential 2006 “Focal Point” brief; contemporaneous Prospect reporting
Evidence standard: Shell’s admitted challenge to unauthorised use of the Shell Pecten is treated as established. The hosting-company warning and BlueHost deactivation are documented contemporaneous events. The available record does not establish that Shell expressly instructed either provider to close the entire website, nor that suppressing Sakhalin reporting was the purpose of the trademark complaint. Assertions of retaliation or censorship are identified as allegation or inference rather than fact. read more

The Sakhalin Papers XXI: “We Do Not Respond in Public to Anonymous Allegations” — Shell’s Internal Corruption Response

A June 2007 complaint, Shell’s private deliberations — and the unanswered question of what “proper channels” meant

Archive reference: SLF-2007-031
Collection: The Sakhalin Papers
Principal record: Shell internal emails of 25–26 June 2007 concerning allegations forwarded by John Donovan to Shell Exploration & Production General Counsel Keith Ruddock
Supporting record: Contemporaneous Donovan–Ruddock correspondence; Shell Sustainability Report 2007; Reuters reporting; later Shell “Focal Point” material; Export Credits Guarantee Department v Friends of the Earth [2008] EWHC 638 (Admin)
Evidence standard: The Shell emails and Shell’s response are treated as documentary facts. The underlying accusations against named individuals remain allegations. Neither Shell’s refusal to provide a substantive public answer nor the absence of a located rebuttal establishes that the allegations were true. read more

The Sakhalin Papers XX: Starstroi, SU4 and the Allegations That Reached Parliament

An Anonymous Insider, a Pipeline Contractor Chain — and the Difference Between Parliamentary Publication and Proof

Archive reference: SLF-2007-030
Collection: The Sakhalin Papers
Principal record: Sakhalin II whistleblower allegations first published in June 2007 and republished on 6 January 2008 concerning Starstroi, SU4 and alleged contractor relationships
Supporting record: Shell internal correspondence subsequently disclosed under Data Protection Act subject-access requests; contemporaneous Sakhalin contractor reporting; Royal Dutch Shell SEC filings; WWF evidence to the House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee; Export Credits Guarantee Department v Friends of the Earth [2008] EWHC 638 (Admin)
Evidence standard: The existence of a contractor, a subcontracting structure or a management role does not establish corruption. Anonymous allegations are identified as allegations. Their later appearance in evidence submitted to a Parliamentary committee does not convert them into Parliamentary findings. No allegation of bribery, improper benefit, manipulated procurement or conflict of interest is treated as established without independent evidence. read more

The Sakhalin Papers XIX: The December Deadline — What the Whistleblower Said Would Happen

A June 2007 Warning Tested Against What Actually Happened

Archive reference: SLF-2007-029
Collection: The Sakhalin Papers
Principal record: Sakhalin II whistleblower statement published in June 2007 concerning the December 2007 pipeline target; authenticated David Greer email of 18 April 2007 concerning pipeline recovery
Supporting record: Contemporaneous Reuters-derived industry reporting; Sakhalin Energy production announcements; Oil & Gas Journal; Japan Bank for International Cooperation; UK Parliamentary evidence; Royal Dutch Shell SEC filing; official Gazprom records; High Court judgment in Export Credits Guarantee Department v Friends of the Earth
Evidence standard: The whistleblower’s forecast is tested against subsequent independently documented events. A prediction that proved substantially accurate does not automatically authenticate every allegation made by the same source. Claims concerning coercion, manipulation, personal responsibility and quantified financial losses remain allegations unless independently established. read more

Supporting record: Sakhalin Energy Annual Review 2005; Royal Dutch Shell Form 6-K filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission; contemporaneous Financial Times, Reuters and Moscow Times reporting

Allegations supplied by whistleblowers, interpretations concerning plagiarism and any claimed causal connection between the leak and Greer’s resignation are separately identified. read more

Three Decades of Publishing About Shell: Why a Record of Challenges, Corrections and Silence Matters

Article note: This article distinguishes between matters supported by public records and statements based on my own publishing records and recollection. Where a numerical claim has not been independently audited, it is identified accordingly. Site wide disclaimer also applies.

A Point About Credibility

During a recent discussion about Shell, Wikipedia and the evidential standards required when making claims about a multinational corporation, I made a point that deserves expanding.

I said:

“I know that you must exercise due caution on information supplied and allegations made. Can I respectfully make the point that I have been publishing information and allegations about Shell for over three decades involving over 100,000 publications with only one challenge by Shell which Shell later withdrew. That fact should speak volumes about my caution and integrity.” read more
