2011 in review

In 2011, Shell delivered major projects which will secure more energy supplies for our customers for years to come. We continued to work to improve our environmental performance in areas such as emissions, energy and water use, flaring and spills. Our safety performance remained strong, and we continued to develop and implement measures to improve our social performance.
