Royal Dutch Shell's CEO Ben Van Beurden speaks during a press conference to give detail on the group's 4th quarter 2013 results in London, Thursday, Jan. 30, 2014.

The decision by Ben van Beurden follows a negative Federal court decision last week. Environmentalists are still challenging whether the government’s 2008 decision to open the area to exploration was correctly granted in the first place. (AP Photo/Alastair Grant)
