Netherlands might be worth looking at. TU Delft has a very good reputation and links with Shell. Also Dutch is easier to learn than German, so they say, and everyone speaks English in NL anyway! Also I seem to recall hearing that they were considering switching over to teaching completely in English for some courses.

I would think that you were exaggerating but when I was in Amsterdam once I truly was amazed that actually everyone could speak English. In Germany, especially in Berlin, it's not like Netherlands but most people also do. The biggest difference is Germans are really shy about speaking a different language so they first try speaking German really slowly with hand gestures even when they speak English much better than I do :)

Yes, nearly everybody speak English, in companies it is however expected, or at least appreciated if you speak Dutch.
Also, the Netherlands changes tuition. The annual tuition fee at TU Delft for the BSc is 10 kEuro, 15 kEuro in the MSc program for non-EU citizens.
