Getting more
Today’s world needs lots of energy. From the moment we get up in the morning and take that hot shower, brew a cup of coffee then jump in the car, bus or train and head off for work, we are using up fossil fuels. But reserves of easy-to-get oil will not keep up with increasing demand and keep our showers hot. So getting the most from what we have is essential. To make sure we achieve this, Shell technology is extending the lives of wells and maximising our existing resources through enhanced oil recovery, sophisticated new digital programmes, and clever drilling techniques.
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR)
Technologies that ‘squeeze’ oil from the reservoir are helping the recovery of more of this valuable resource.
Smart Fields®
With smart combinations of technologies, and monitoring, management and control of oil and gas fields, we are achieving better production results.
Liquefied natural gas (LNG)
Making the most of natural gas – the cleanest fossil fuel – means getting it to where it is needed. LNG has proved to be an answer.
Drilling
Reaching the oil and gas takes more than just a well, - drilling technologies and methodologies combine to reach further and reach more.
