LOL :)

Dude you have the internet. You can gather more information in the time it takes to walk one block than I could in a whole night of digging in the library when I was in college.

Jeeze talk about lazy ass kids today, won't even type shell in a search engine, wants someone else to type it for him and read him the results.

Well, I don't email people who just toss their addy out there on their first post to a forum, but if you should happen to check back, you could try this for starters:

http://www.google.com/search?&q=royal+dutch+shell

I should think that the 1.6+ million results returned should have something useful... :wink:

Seriously, I used to spend a lot of time in the research stacks piecing together references. Review papers were a lot more important then! I remember the time I was in the basement stacks when all the lights went out because the library closed and I had to grope my way out of the building.

thanks a lot for your inspired comments. There is no one encouragment sentence in all of the comments. just yesterday i received the project from the sir and it is not about shell in general but complicated things. i didn't ask you to do it for me and i didn't tell you that i will not do anything. All what i asked you is to help me understanidg the project and nothing more than that. if i really dont need a serios help, i won't come to ask your for your help.

any way, thanks a lot :)

regards,
a students from United Arab Emirates

I thought all the kids knew this one? You google the topic and skip back a few hunderd pages, then from a readable article on the subject, copy keyword chunks onto google again and see that the page stays well back in the rankings even when quoted. On a hugely written about topic like shell it shouldn't be too hard to find something to fit the bill in say, about 5 minutes.

GoogleScholar is even cooler, because it gives you the number of times an article is cited. If you need to cite someone with a crazy six part name, you can find how someone else cited them.
