Ben van Beurden, Chief Executive of Royal Dutch Shell:
- “Energy demand, and certainty mobility demand, will be lower even when this crisis is more or less behind us. Will it mean that it will never recover? It is probably too early to say, but it will have a permanent knock for years”
- “It is most likely not going to be a v-shaped recovery.”
- Shell & others have had to reduce spending sharply, postpone investment and will continue to do so “for some time to come”
