The Shell Group
We are best known to the public for our service stations and for exploring and producing oil and gas on land and at sea; but we deliver a much wider range of energy solutions and petrochemicals to customers.
These include transporting and trading oil and gas, marketing natural gas, producing and selling fuel for ships and planes, generating electricity and providing energy efficiency advice.
We also produce and sell petrochemical building blocks to industrial customers globally and we are investing in making renewable and lower-carbon energy sources competitive for large-scale use. We operate in over 130 countries and territories and employ approximately 108,000 people.
Around the globe, Shell companies work in partnership with industry, government and society to deliver what is expected of us – economically, socially and environmentally. We invest and collaborate in the development of new technologies that will keep improving our performance.
We try to ensure that our employees continuously acquire new skills and capabilities, through training and experience in their own countries and on secondments and assignments abroad. And we constantly check how well we’re doing, with internal and independent audits of every aspect of our business. The objectives of the Shell Group are to engage efficiently, responsibly and profitably in oil, oil products, gas, chemicals and other selected businesses and to participate in the search for and development of other sources of energy to meet evolving customer needs and the world’s growing demand for energy.
We believe that oil and gas will be integral to the global energy needs for economic development for many decades to come. Our role is to ensure that we extract and deliver them profitably and in environmentally and socially responsible ways. We seek a high standard of performance, maintaining a strong long-term and growing position in the competitive environments in which we choose to operate.
