Shell companies have been finding
and producing oil and gas around the world for over a century. Today, we have
interests in exploration and production ventures in more than 80 countries and
employ approximately 90,000 people.
This is a technically challenging
work environment characterised by a continuing need for research, the pursuit
of new technology, and the adoption of new ways of working. It demands people
who will thrive in a culture that encourages and rewards innovation,
collaboration and the ability to learn from success as well as failure.
Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) is the pioneer and leader of the petroleum industry in Nigeria. It is capable of producing an average of over one million barrels of oil equivalent per day. The company’s operations are concentrated in the Niger Delta and adjoining shallow offshore areas where it operates in an oil mining lease area of around 30,000 square kilometres.
