-1 Projects & Technology Shell Investors’ Handbook 2014-2018

Shell’s Projects & Technology (P&T) organisation delivers more than half of Shell’s annual capital investment programme and develops and deploys new technologies to increase the competitiveness of its assets. This includes the coordination of research and development (R&D) that lays the technological foundation for the future. P&T also provides Shell’s functional leadership for safety and the environment. It therefore helps ensure that neither people nor nature are harmed during the construction and operation of Shell’s facilities.
