Shell’s Rossport spin doctor calls for alternative pipeline

Aine Ryan

A SPIN DOCTOR appointed to improve Shell’s image in Mayo, where it is engaged in a long-running battle to bring gas onshore, has predicted that its pipeline will never run through Rossport.

Christy Loftus, recently appointed as external affairs adviser by Shell, has advised his employers to start looking for alternative routes. “I’ve told Shell that I believe the pipeline will never be laid along that route, and I think they are listening to me,” he said.

But the former Western People journalist has also warned that attempts by Shell to Sea, a protest group, to have the gas processed offshore will never be considered by the company because of the economic implications.
