Ceo royal dutch shell
“hello, i am ben van beurden, the chief executive officer of royal dutch shell.
We are holding a capital markets day in london today and let me give you a summary of that.
It’s an important moment for us at shell. We are setting out a strategy for the next several years and this is all about reshaping shell following on from the bg acquisition, which we closed earlier this year.
There are important changes in the macro landscape that we are operating in.”
Ben van beurden voice over
“and how we see this playing out drives the strategic choices that we are making.
We expect to see robust demand for oil and gas for decades to come, in a global energy system that is in a long-term transition to lower carbon intensity.”
