Overview

Royal Dutch Shell (formerly Royal Dutch/Shell Group) sits on an oil and gas throne that is only slightly lower than that of #1 oil company Exxon Mobil. The company has worldwide proved reserves of 10.9 billion barrels of oil equivalent. Most of the oil giant's crude is produced in Nigeria, Oman, the UK, and the US. Royal Dutch Shell is also investing heavily in the Athabasca Oil Sands Project, which extracts bitumen from oil sands in Alberta and converts it to synthetic crude oil. It operates 45,000 gas stations, the world's largest retail fuel network. The company also produces refined products and chemicals, transports natural gas, trades gas and electricity, and develops renewable energy sources.
