It is interesting - saw something similar in NASA
The approach focuses on structure and curation rather than scalability of narrative (other than by tacit transfer)

Bart, as I understand it, the outputs of the ROCK process are used to update the Shell "body of knowledge" (Shell wiki, processes, training etc)

Martin and Rupert,
 
I believe the ROCK program was done for retiring experts. In their last 3-4 years, they get more time for knowledge sharing (and thus less project work). 
They were then interviewed by a few young (potential) employees from different departments (R&D; marketing; etc). 
The written reports of these interviews are stored, but mostly the 'stories' lived on in the young employees.

Hi Martin,
The Oil Major, Royal Dutch Shell has the ‘Retention of Critical Knowledge’ (ROCK) programme, whereby staff are interviewed every 5 or so years after a certain tenure.
Also, Dorothy Leonard has done a lot of work in this area; look her up and say hi from me if you make contact.
cheers,
Rupert
