Essar to sell UK’s second-biggest refinery
Extract from a Financial Times article James Crabtree in Mumbai published 12 June 2014
India’s Essar Group plans to sell the British oil refinery it bought from Royal Dutch Shell for $350m in 2011, as the struggling conglomerate attempts to reduce debts and refocus on its core Indian business. “The truth is they should never have bought Stanlow, but Shell sold it on the cheap…”
Where is the queue to issue libel writs against John Donovan?
Will the findings prompt some of the named cops to issue libel writs against me?No, not a chance, because they know the truth and have got no intention of taking any action that ends up with them having to give evidence under oath. Consequently there is not a single soul who has or will take legal action.
By John Donovan
The proof is provided below that since OSSL allegations of Shell sponsored corruption on the Corrib Gas Project were first brought to my attention in September 2012, I have written and published over 100 articles on the subject. Our regular visitors must be thoroughly bored by the subject. I know that at least one is.
I have named numerous individuals as having knowledge of these matters and named senior Garda Cops that were up to their necks in the free Shell booze scandal.
Last August I published an article: Where is my defamation writ from Shell?
For some reason Shell was not obliging.
Neither were any of the named cops.
No writs. No queue. Wonder why?
The next chapter in the OSSL saga is imminent with the pending publication of the findings of an investigation led by Johan Groenewald from the Irish Police Ombudsman Dept. Sorry I can’t help with any background credentials for this individual since I cannot find any. Having become slightly unglued in the bizarre correspondence with me, he preempted and undermined the credibility of his verdict by poring scorn on the integrity of OSSL and rubbishing a pile of evidence supplied by OSSL that he has apparently discarded without investigation.
I brought this strange situation to the attention of Enda Kenny T.D. the Irish Prime Minister (the Taoiseach) and received a response from David King, his private Secretary, advising that the correspondence has been passed to Frances Fitzgerald, the Irish Minister for Justice.
Will the Gronewald findings prompt some of the named cops to issue libel writs against me?
No, not a chance, because they know the truth and have no intention of taking any action that ends up with them having to give evidence under oath.
Consequently there is not a single soul who has or will take legal action.
Numerous firms, individuals and Garda officers know the truth, but all have remained silent and thus become participants in the cover-up.

Weighing the Risks of Investing in Energy Companies
Extracts from an article by Stanley Reed published 11 June 2014 by The New York Times
…fund managers beginning to think skeptically about fossil fuel companies — not so much because they or their clients disapprove of their activities, but because they think the securities issued by these companies may prove poor long-term investments.
The reasoning, which has caught the attention of major oil companies like Royal Dutch Shell, is that after a period of relative inaction, world governments may be heading toward adopting tougher rules on emissions, transforming the economics of the energy business. Investment professionals say that there hasn’t been a mass exodus out of fossil fuels.
…even though the major energy companies might not be in investors’ cross hairs now, they should be following the debate. “Any company not paying attention to what its stakeholders are saying and thinking is playing a risky game…”
Equipment Fails on Shell Gulf of Mexico Drilling Rig
Extracts from an article published by The Maritime Executive on 11 June 2014
The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) is responding to an equipment failure on board the Deepwater Nautilus semisubmersible drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico, approximately 100 miles south of Fourchon, La. The offshore oil and gas operator, Shell Offshore Inc., reported that on June 9 during well operations, the rig’s traveling block fell. The traveling block is a large piece of equipment that supports the top drive which rotates drill pipe. There are no reports of injuries to personnel. There is no reported pollution.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
