Options for future growth

Shell has a strong portfolio of pre-final investment decision options that can support production growth up to 2020. We have about 30 projects in the concept-selection or design phase, around half of which are to be operated by Shell. The projects include not only traditional exploration and production activities, but also involve deep water, LNG, tight gas, liquids-rich shale and heavy oil. In total, these projects represent some 13 billion boe of resources. The main areas of potential growth are the deep-water fields such as the Gulf of Mexico, tight-gas and liquids-rich shale resources (mainly in North America) and LNG projects in Oceania.
