    Corporate Engagement Review Shell February 2007 This is the third Corporate Engagement Review of Shell. In 2005 we reviewed Shell prior to their sponsorship of WPY (Appendix II), and the earlier one was done in 1997 prior to the start of our relationship with Shell (Appendix III) This review is intended to update the 2005 review, and includes major issues raised, or continuing to dominate the press since they began their sponsorship, changes in their CSR & environmental policies and new major gifts/sponsorships/awards of other organisations. About the company Royal Dutch Shell and Shell Transport and Trading were unified on 20th July 2005 under a single new parent company, Royal Dutch Shell plc. Previously the company group was 60% owned by the Royal Dutch Petroleum Company and 40% by the Shell Transport and Trading Co. plc. The major issues currently surrounding Shell which need to be considered are: Sakhalin – this was raised in the 2005 review. Shell no longer has a controlling stake since Gazprom took over control in December 2006, but they do remain a major shareholder. Nigeria – this was raised in both the earlier reviews, and still remains a serious issue. Ireland – the Corrib field, a proposed development subject to much protest at the moment. This is a newer development, and so wasn’t raised in the earlier reviews Charity Commission complaint against the Shell Foundation Shell’s profits Negative press surrounding Shell’s sponsorship of WPY (Appendix I) Sakhalin Shell has bowed to pressure from the Russian government to allow state-owned energy company Gazprom to take a controling interest in the Sakhalin-2 oil and gas field.
