Disambiguation help

[edit]

The article currently links to Shell Oil, which is a disambiguation page containing the following content:

Shell Oil can refer to one of the following:

I am of the opinion that almost all links to disambiguation pages should be re-targeted to the proper destination. But I am unsure which is correct in this case. I'm leaning most to Royal Dutch Shell, but on the other hand, perhaps Shell Oil Company is the intended target, based on the name? Does anyone with knowledge on this, perhaps particularly the article's creator, know what would be the appropriate link? -Lilac Soul (talk contribs count) 15:23, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I had another read of Murray (see ref #2 in article, page 15) which says that the investor was "Shell Development", the exploration arm and that it dealt mainly with the technical office at The Hague and shared offices with Shell Australia.
The internationalisation of Shell into subsidiaries in almost every country of the world was being rolled out during the early 1960s. Shell Australia became a subsidiary of Shell Transport and Trading Company of London and the Royal Dutch Petroleum Company of The Hague. Shell Development (Australia) Pty Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell Australia Ltd.[1] Shell Development (Australia) is also the investor in the North West Shelf Venture.
So I think the correct answer is perhaps [[Shell Australia|Shell Development]]. What do you think? Moondyne 01:55, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
