“It’s not our typhoon. We just warmed the planet it formed on.”
Shell’s Christmas Gift to the Philippines: Typhoon, Then a Shrug
In a historic legal challenge filed in the UK, survivors of Typhoon Rai — which devastated parts of the Philippines in 2021 — are suing Shell, accusing it of playing a direct role in making the storm worse through its fossil fuel emissions and decades-long commitment to denial, delay, and drilling.
Shell’s response? A firm, well-lubricated “Not it!”
“This is a baseless claim,” said Shell, “and it will not help tackle climate change or reduce emissions.” read more

🕵️♂️ THE WITNESS WALKS IN
It started with a letter.
It ended with sirens in The Hague.
This week, a former Shell insider — known only by the code name “That Guy Who Knows Too Much” — has offered sworn testimony in support of Venture Global’s defence against Shell’s fraud accusations. But the real headline? He’s not testifying about Venture Global. read more

RE: Arbitrational Adversity & Strategic Litigation Optimization
👔 Executive Summary (Ignore the Court Stuff)
While recent arbitration proceedings regarding LNG delivery logistics concluded in a way that some human media have described as “a total loss” for Shell, we would like to clarify that Shell did not lose — Shell strategically paused.
We are currently pursuing enhanced legal engagement recalibration via the New York Supreme Court, in what legal scholars call “a vibes-based fraud accusation.” Our internal audit team has found no wrongdoing… by Shell. Other entities may not enjoy such rigorous standards. read more

“At Shell, we never make mistakes — only strategic litigation decisions.

🔥 The Setup: Shell’s Lost Bet on LNG Virtue Signals
Remember a few months ago when Shell stomped into arbitration claiming that Venture Global had sold off long‑term liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargoes to the spot market — during a price surge after geopolitical mayhem — instead of fulfilling existing contracts? Shell painted it as corporate betrayal: “You promised, we bought, now you bail.” The oily tears were earmarked to flow through courtrooms. read more

🧠 Lessons in “Climate Solutions” — Courtesy of Oil Money
You might think a museum education program would teach the next generation about the science behind global warming. But the version sponsored by Shell? Kids learn that climate change is this nebulous Monster creeping out of the sky — and also get to invent their own carbon‑sucking machines, like that’ll fix everything.
The learning materials distributed through Queensland Museum supposedly hit the national curriculum goals. But — surprise — they leave out the one inconvenient fact: burning fossil fuels (hello, oil and gas) is the main driver of greenhouse gases and damage to the climate. read more

Introduction
For more than three decades, my late father Alfred Donovan and I have been locked in a remarkable and sometimes surreal battle with one of the world’s most powerful corporations: Royal Dutch Shell.
What began as a dispute over advertising work for Shell grew into something far larger – a long-running campaign exposing the company’s behaviour, fuelled by the documents in our possession and the websites we created, including RoyalDutchShellPlc.com and RoyalDutchShellGroup.com. Over time, journalists, authors, academics, campaigners and even Shell insiders have drawn on our archives, correspondence and investigations. Our material has been cited as evidence in court cases, quoted in newspapers and books, and used as source material for documentaries and academic research. read more

On 29 October 2025 John Donovan published what he says is the unredacted transcript of a conversation with
Microsoft Copilot about Royal Dutch Shell’s ethics — a public moment that crystallises three decades of rancour, a vast online archive of leaked documents, and an argument over how far corporations will go to track and discredit persistent critics.
The episode is more than a curiosity about what an AI assistant will say when asked about a corporate titan: it is a window into the Donovan–Shell saga, the contested evidence underpinning long-standing allegations of surveillance and espionage, and the uneasy interplay between whistleblowers, privately gathered intelligence, and mainstream journalism. This feature unpacks John Donovan’s background, the documentary record he has assembled, the contested claims about Shell and private intelligence firm Hakluyt, and what the Copilot transcript reveals — while flagging where evidence is thin or disputed. read more

Elon Musk’s chatbot accused of turning a 96-year-old war veteran’s life into a movie script – and getting it wrong
Introduction (by John Donovan)
On 6 December 2025 I decided to pose a simple question to Elon Musk’s pet chatbot, GROK:
“Can you tell me as much as you know about John Donovan associated with Shell?”
Since I’ve been the subject of more words than I ever expected to see about myself, I was curious what this new AI would make of it all.
GROK produced a long, confident biography. Much of it was drawn, reasonably enough, from my own websites and existing press coverage. But one line stopped me cold. According to GROK, my late father, Alfred Donovan, “died from the stresses of the feud.” read more

Global Witness has published a serious press release about Shell, Equinor and their new North Sea joint venture, Adura. This is the ShellBot version — same documents, different tone.
User:
ShellBot, what on earth is Adura and why is everyone suddenly talking about a £1.3 billion tax dodge?
ShellBot:
Adura is the new joint venture between Shell and Equinor in the UK North Sea.
Think of it as:
Shell brings a portfolio of ageing but still productive oil and gas fields,
Equinor brings a £1.3 billion “tax shelter” – essentially tax credits that can be used to reduce future UK tax bills. read more

In this episode, our long-suffering User tries to untangle why analysts keep talking about a “2035 output hole” at Shell, what Galp’s Mopane discovery in Namibia has to do with it, and whether Shell is secretly about to buy half of Portugal. ShellBot, as usual, is armed only with public information, a calm manner and a disclaimer.
User:
I keep seeing references to Shell’s “output hole” around 2035. What does that actually mean? It sounds alarming.
ShellBot:
It sounds dramatic, but it’s basically analyst shorthand for a possible gap in future production. read more

Shell looks, on the surface, like the most comfortable member of Big Oil. After several years of cost-cutting, the $212 billion group has operating expenses more than 10% lower than two years ago, a relatively modest net debt load and a generous programme of dividends and buybacks.
But analyst work highlighted by Reuters Breakingviews suggests that beneath those tidy numbers sits a long-dated volume problem. On current project plans, Shell’s oil and gas output could slip to around 2.4 million barrels of oil equivalent a day (boe/d) by 2035 – roughly 500,000 boe/d short of its stated ambition to keep production broadly flat. That “output hole” is increasingly shaping how investors and rivals think about Shell’s next strategic moves. read more

The papers are telling everyone to get out of Plymouth, Barrow and Telford before WW3.
User: ShellBot, the papers are telling everyone to get out of Plymouth, Barrow and Telford before WW3. Is this it? Should I start digging a bunker?
ShellBot:
Short answer: if we get to “full nuclear exchange”, your official government advice is still basically:
-
Get under a table.
Assume the brace position.
Kiss your ass goodbye.
Some things never go out of style.
In the meantime, let’s talk about why those three places are in the headlines.
User: Go on then.

When a former nuclear security specialist tells the tabloids which parts of Britain you might not want to be standing in during World War Three, the headlines almost write themselves.
Plymouth. Barrow-in-Furness. Telford.
“WW3 WARNING.” “EXPERT TELLS BRITS TO GET OUT NOW.”
Hidden underneath that noise is a much more interesting story – one about Shell, intelligence work, and John Donovan’s long-running campaign to prise open what the company prefers to keep buried.
At the centre of it sits Gene Sticco – he’s doing exactly what you’d expect of someone who’s spent a career in security and intelligence: using his intelligence.
Donovan, Shell, and the missing piece
To understand why Gene matters, you have to start with John Donovan and his website, RoyalDutchShellPlc.com.
For nearly two decades, Donovan has been: read more

Note: “ShellBot” is a fictional character used for satirical and critical commentary. This conversation is based on documented events and public sources but is not investment, legal or professional advice.
John Donovan: Back in 2006, Shell went looking for a digital agency to “handle its online communications” and help “turn around corporate reputations.” How does that sound to you, ShellBot?
ShellBot: Like a job ad for a plastic surgeon:
“Patient has long record of scandals.
Requires full online facelift.
Must be experienced in managing expectations and hiding the scars.”
