Shell in the UK
Shell is a vital contributor to the UK, supporting energy security, jobs and economic value. We provide energy to fuel homes, hospitals, schools, vehicles, machinery and factories. Our history here dates back over 125 years. A UK-headquartered global energy leader, and leading FTSE multinational, we are active across the country’s energy system.
Shell UK's business priorities
Our strength in the UK lies in our unique integrated footprint, spanning oil and gas, energy trading and mobility and convenience services for our customers. We are working to strongly position Shell for the future by evolving our businesses, in areas such as electric-vehicle charging and through our Shell Equinor incorporated joint venture in the North Sea. We are confident this will provide value for Shell and ensure we continue to play a central role in UK energy today, and through the next decade of the energy transition.

North Sea investment
As an investor, we will unlock the potential of the North Sea by responsibly making the most of oil and gas resources, helping support UK energy security and contributing significant value for Shell. We will build on strong foundations to enhance energy security through North Sea activities, providing we have a predictable and globally competitive investment climate. Our UK gas plants, pipeline systems and import terminals help supply more than 20% of UK's gas supply.

Business energy partner of choice
We want to grow as a business energy partner of choice, creating value through our world-class trading business and integrated capabilities across the UK energy system. Our UK-based trading capability connects global customers, delivers LNG to the UK and is active in areas such as the sourcing and supply of lower-carbon fuels.

Serving our customers
We aim to serve more customers at our forecourts and across the UK with Shell’s full range of quality products and services as the strongest brand in our sector, while profitably supporting customer decarbonisation. We will harness our standing as a UK partner of choice for customers through the energy transition.

Economic impact
We strongly believe in the potential for a balanced net-zero transition to unleash economic growth and opportunity. We employ thousands of staff as part of our country-wide footprint supplying energy reliably. We support the future energy workforce through our SkillsTransition programme, aiming to help 15,000 people into jobs with a focus on the energy transition by 2035.

Helping power the UK now, and into the future
From installing electric vehicle (EV) chargers, to helping supply UK gas, to building skills for the energy transition.
