Well Engineering
The world faces energy challenges that are becoming more complex by the day. We’re looking for people who share our passion for taking on those challenges with cutting edge technology, innovative thinking and a commitment to properly managed risk.
Right now, we need Well Engineers to help us achieve optimal performance from all our wells – from design and construction that meets our exacting health and safety standards, to ongoing maintenance that delivers maximum value throughout an oil or gas field’s life-cycle.
Shell is the world leaders in well construction and operation. Join us, and you can design or drill wells with our state-of-the-art Synergy rigs. You can deploy our new collapsible insert device, apply your training at the world’s first well intervention simulator, or execute our low-cost/high-density manufacturing process.
Whatever challenges you take on, we can offer you a career at the forefront of industry innovation, with outstanding professional development and opportunities to work on some of the most demanding and exciting energy projects anywhere in the world.
Mars B
Mars B will add new infrastructure to help boost production at the Mars Field, located in the Gulf of Mexico.
Parque das Conchas
The Parque das Conchas fields lie in ultra-deep water off Brazil, where a constant swell, shifting sands and near-freezing seabed temperatures pose huge technical challenges.
Gumusut
The Gumusut field offshore Malaysia lies in water depth up to 1,220 metres deep. Shell has a 33% interest in this development.
Cardamom Deep
Shell is developing its major Cardamom oil and gas field in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The Cardamom project is expected to produce 50,000 barrels of oil equivalent (boe) a day at peak production.
