 Shell has developed a dedicated sulphur business to manage the complete value chain of sulphur - from upstream refining to marketing - providing sulphur for everyday industries such as mining and textiles through to the development of new products which can incorporate sulphur, for example sulphur in roads, fertilizers and concrete.

Upstream Refining

Upstream Refininng

Shell Sulphur Solutions: committed to finding more uses for sulphur

It is well-known that many of the world’s remaining reserves of oil and gas are richer in H2S and sulphur than previously-excavated fields.  At the same time, improved standards mean refineries need to remove more sulphur from fuels to meet environmental needs. 

Shell Sulphur Solutions has been created to address these challenges.  Our goal is to create a virtuous circle of sulphur management; removing sulphur where it adds little value, and then using this recovered sulphur to add value, for example as a component of new end-products which have the potential for large scale commercialisation with significant benefits.
