BREAKING: Shell has fired up yet another climate cannon.
The oil giant, forever young in its fossil fuel addiction, has begun pumping from the Mero-4 platform off the coast of Brazil. That’s right—just when you thought the world might try to slow down on emissions, Shell straps on its rig boots and cranks open the taps in one of Earth’s most carbon-loaded treasure chests.
Operating in Brazil’s pre-salt Santos Basin—because if you’re going to torch the future, you might as well do it offshore and under two kilometres of ocean—the FPSO “Alexandre de Gusmão” now joins the ever-swelling Mero family of floating oil factories. It’s named after a 17th-century diplomat, because nothing says “legacy” like an oil slick.
If you worked for Shell in the 1990s or early 2000s, and have any information to share on Todd Staheli and his career – in Brazil, Ukraine, London, Saudi Arabia, Houston and elsewhere – please contact me at
