Shell is a truly international, multicultural environment, one in which the exchange of ideas is encouraged and where innovation thrives. We employ over 3200 people in Australia and over 109,000 worldwide. We have offices in Melbourne and Perth, refineries in Clyde (NSW) and Geelong (VIC), as well as 19 terminals and over 33 depots throughout Australia.
Upstream:
Shell’s upstream business is Shell Development Australia (SDA). SDA employs 250 employees based in Perth who work with other joint venture participants and operators to develop oil and gas projects. We find, develop and supply liquefied natural gas (LNG) to overseas markets and by pipeline to domestic customers in Western Australia.
SDA is currently involved in a number of major gas projects off the north west coast of Australia. Globally, Shell is already the world’s largest producer of LNG. By 2010, Shell aims to have almost doubled LNG capacity. Projects in Australia will make a major contribution to this growth. Using this additional LNG to produce power can result in around 25 million tonnes less carbon dioxide emissions per year, relative to using coal.
Downstream:
Shell’s downstream business trades with over 50,000 customers throughout the country and supplies a quarter of Australia’s petrol and diesel requirements.
Together our two refineries produce 27 per cent of Australia’s petroleum products including petrol, LPG, diesel, aviation fuel, heating oil, high viscosity oil, propylene, solvents and bitumen. Shell refines a variety of local and overseas crude oil and feedstocks into different fuels and petroleum products for distribution to local and overseas markets.
Shell Logistics, the transport and distribution subsidiary of Shell Australia makes more than 600,000 deliveries to thousands of tanks throughout the country, traveling over 53 million kilometres. Our Supply business sets the operating plan and optimises the refinery throughputs, configuration and production schedules to maximise their cash return and supply market demands.
The Commercial arm supplies petroleum products to business customers and direct to consumers, while the Retail business works with Coles Express to maintain and manage service station property and sites, ensuring Shell branded independent retailers receive effective relationship management from us and have an understanding of their customers’ needs and how to meet them.
We help meet global energy demand in economically, environmentally and socially responsible ways.
