Shell's footprint

Shell has been active in Spain since 1920. Shell in Spain supplies natural gas and electricity to industries and businesses; owns and operates a lubricants blending plant which supplies the Iberian market, North Africa and several Mediterranean countries; and provides liquefied natural gas bunkering services at the Port of Barcelona. Shell also supplies, through two joint ventures, aviation fuels to airlines in Spain and operational services at four airports in the Canary Islands.

In addition, Shell provides market access services to renewable power generators, and trades gas and electricity. There are Shell-branded retail sites owned and operated by third parties across the country. In 2022, Shell acquired 10 solar project development entities and an electrical vehicle charging company in Spain.

Country
Throughout this report, “country” is used as the primary descriptor for a geographical area because that is the word used by the OECD/G20 base erosion and profit shifting project in their proposal for country-by-country reporting. This is one of the four minimum reporting standards to which around 135 countries have committed, covering the tax residence jurisdictions of nearly all large multinational enterprises. In this report “country” may also refer to locations, jurisdictions or territories which have their own tax regimes or discrete rules.
