Shell is a global group of energy and petrochemical companies with operations in many countries and locations and across the whole energy supply chain. We work collaboratively with customers, governments, business partners, investors and other stakeholders. Our purpose is to power progress together by providing more and cleaner energy solutions. Our strategy is to strengthen our position as a leading energy company by providing oil, gas and low-carbon energy products and services as the energy system transforms. In April 2020, we announced our target to be a net-zero emissions energy business by 2050, in step with society.
Business activities are supported by centralised services, such as finance, legal and human resources. For more details, see the chapter Supporting Services. This report follows Shell’s organisation in 2020 of Upstream, Integrated Gas and New Energies [A], Downstream, and Projects & Technology. For more information on our updated strategy and business structure, please see Powering Progress.
[A] New Energies was rebranded to Renewables and Energy Solutions in 2021.
