Following a careful and thorough evaluation of technical challenges and costs, Shell has decided
to exit the joint development of the Bab sour gas reservoirs with ADNOC in the emirate of Abu
Dhabi, and to stop further joint work on the project. The evaluation concluded that for Shell, the
development of the project does not fit with the company’s strategy, particularly in the economic
climate prevailing in the energy industry.

Shell has reached a conditional agreement with Malaysia Hengyuan International Limited (MHIL)
for the sale of its 51% shareholding in the Shell Refining Company (SRC) in Malaysia for $66.3
million. It is MHIL’s intention for SRC to invest in the upgrades needed to meet the Euro 4M and
Euro 5 requirements. The transaction is expected to complete in 2016, subject to obtaining
regulatory approval.
Shell Malaysia Trading will ensure security of supply to its retail and commercial customers in
Malaysia and honour other existing commitments through an existing comprehensive supply
strategy that includes a long term offtake from Shell Refining Company.
The sale is consistent with Shell’s strategy to concentrate its global Downstream footprint and
businesses where it can be most competitive. Malaysia continues to be an important country for
Shell. Shell is the leading retail fuels and lubricants provider and continues to invest in growing
these businesses in the country.
Other recent Downstream divestments include the sale of Downstream businesses in Australia
and Italy; a number of retail sites in the UK; and the initial public offering of, and further drop
downs to, Shell Midstream Partners L.P. Shell has also agreed the sale of its marketing business
in Denmark and Norway, its LPG businesses in France and a 33.24% shareholding in Showa
Shell Sekiyu KK.

The Board of Royal Dutch Shell plc (“RDS”) today announced an interim dividend in respect of
the fourth quarter of 2015 of US$0.47 per A ordinary share (“A Share”) and B ordinary share (“B
Share”), equal to the US dollar dividend for the same quarter last year.
The Board expects that the first quarter 2016 interim dividend will be US$0.47, equal to the US
dollar dividend for the same quarter in the previous year. The first quarter 2016 interim dividend
is scheduled to be announced on May 4, 2016.
RDS provides eligible shareholders with a choice to receive dividends in cash or in shares via a
Scrip Dividend Programme (“the Programme”). For further details please see below.
Details relating to the fourth quarter 2015 interim dividend

It is expected that cash dividends on the B Shares will be paid via the Dividend Access
Mechanism from UK-sourced income of the Shell Group.
Per ordinary share Q4 2015
RDS A Shares (US$) 0.47
RDS B Shares (US$) 0.47
Cash dividends on A Shares will be paid, by default, in euro, although holders of A Shares will be
able to elect to receive dividends in pounds sterling.
Cash dividends on B Shares will be paid, by default, in pounds sterling, although holders of B
Shares will be able to elect to receive dividends in euro.
The pounds sterling and euro equivalent dividend payments will be announced on March 11,
2016.
Per ADS Q4 2015
RDS A ADSs (US$) 0.94
RDS B ADSs (US$) 0.94
Cash dividends on American Depository Shares (“ADSs”) will be paid, by default, in US dollars.
ADS stands for an American Depositary Share. ADR stands for an American Depositary Receipt.
An ADR is a certificate that evidences ADSs. ADSs are listed on the NYSE under the symbols
RDS.A and RDS.B. Each ADS represents two ordinary shares, two A Shares in the case of
RDS.A or two B Shares in the case of RDS.B. In many cases the terms ADR and ADS are used
interchangeably.
Scrip Dividend Programme
RDS provides shareholders with a choice to receive dividends in cash or in shares via the
Programme.
Under the Programme shareholders can increase their shareholding in RDS by choosing to
receive new shares instead of cash dividends, if approved by the Board. Only new A Shares will
be issued under the Programme, including to shareholders who currently hold B Shares.
Joining the Programme may offer a tax advantage in some countries compared with receiving
cash dividends. In particular, dividends paid out as shares will not be subject to Dutch dividend
withholding tax (currently 15 per cent) and will not generally be taxed on receipt by a UK
shareholder or a Dutch shareholder.
Shareholders who elect to join the Programme will increase the number of shares held in RDS
without having to buy existing shares in the market, thereby avoiding associated dealing costs.
Shareholders who do not join the Programme will continue to receive in cash any dividends
approved by the Board.
Shareholders who held only B Shares and joined the Programme are reminded they will need to
make a Scrip Dividend Election in respect of their new A Shares if they wish to join the
Programme in respect of such new shares. However, this is only necessary if the shareholder
has not previously made a Scrip Dividend Election in respect of any new A Shares issued.
For further information on the Programme, including how to join if you are eligible, please refer to
the appropriate publication available on www.shell.com/scrip .

Dividend Access Mechanism, are entitled to a tax credit. This tax credit is not repayable. Non-

Kingdom and their country of residence so provide, or if they are eligible for relief given to non-
residents with certain special connections with the United Kingdom or to nationals of states in the
European Economic Area.

quarter 2015 interim dividend of US$0.47 is US$0.05 per ordinary share and the dividend and tax

Third phase of major deep-water project delivered, optimising production capacity

Shell and its joint venture announce the start of oil production from the third phase of the deep-
water Parque das Conchas (BC-10) development in Brazil's Campos Basin. Production for this
final phase of the project is expected to add up to 20,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d)
at peak production, from fields that have already produced more than 100 million barrels since
2009.
"The safe, early delivery of this production is a testament to the efficiency of our deep-water
project execution," said Wael Sawan, Executive Vice-President, Deep Water, Shell. "With this
phased project, we have again demonstrated value from standardisation, synergies from
contractual relationships, and the strategic deployment of new technologies. These barrels, like
other subsea tieback opportunities across our deep-water portfolio, have development cost
advantages and will contribute to the strong production growth we expect from offshore Brazil."
Shell is a global leader in deep water with a strong development pipeline following last month's
completion of the BG combination, across offshore Brazil, the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, Nigeria, and
Malaysia.
Operated by Shell (50%) and owned together with ONGC (27%) and QPI (23%), Parque das
Conchas Phase 3 comprises five producing wells in two Campos Basin fields (Massa and O-
South) and two water-injection wells. The subsea wells sit in water depths greater than 5,900 feet
(1,800 meters) and connect to a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, the
Espirito Santo, located more than 90 miles (150 kilometers) offshore Brazil.
Parque das Conchas Phase 3 is the latest major deep-water project for Shell. Shell deep-water
sanctioned projects currently in development include the Stones project, whose FPSO vessel is
now on location in the Gulf of Mexico, and the Appomattox project, also a Gulf of Mexico project,
now under construction. Shell is also part of a consortium exploring and developing the giant pre-
salt Libra field, offshore Brazil, and recently completed the acquisition of BG, which includes
significant deep-water Brazil positions.

Saudi Arabian Oil Company ("Saudi Aramco") through its wholly owned Saudi Refining Inc.
("SRI") subsidiary and Royal Dutch Shell plc ("Shell"), through its U.S. downstream affiliate,
announce today they have signed a non-binding Letter of Intent to divide the assets of Motiva
Enterprises LLC. The Motiva joint venture was formed in 1998 and has operated as a 50/50
refining and marketing joint venture between the parties since 2002.
In the proposed division of assets, SRI will retain the Motiva name, assume sole ownership of the
Port Arthur, Texas refinery, retain 26 distribution terminals, and have an exclusive license to use
the Shell brand for gasoline and diesel sales in Texas, the majority of the Mississippi Valley, the
Southeast and Mid-Atlantic markets. Shell will assume sole ownership of the Norco, Louisiana
refinery (where Shell operates a chemicals plant), the Convent, Louisiana refinery, nine
distribution terminals, and Shell branded markets in Florida, Louisiana and the Northeastern
region.
"Motiva's performance has been transformed in the last two years. We propose to combine the
assets we will retain from the joint venture with Shell's other Downstream assets in North
America. This is consistent with both the Group and Downstream strategy to provide simpler and
more highly integrated businesses which deliver increased cash and returns," said John Abbott,
Shell Downstream Director.
Abdulrahman F. Al-Wuhaib, Senior Vice President of Downstream, Saudi Aramco said: "Saudi
Aramco subsidiaries and affiliates have had a presence in the U.S. for over 60 years, and the
Motiva joint venture with Shell has served our downstream business objectives very well for
many years. However, it is now time for the partners to pursue their independent downstream
goals. The Port Arthur refinery will advance Saudi Aramco's global downstream integration
strategy through supply & trading, refining and fuels marketing, chemicals and base oils. Motiva's
employees will continue to be critical to fulfilling our future growth potential in the Americas,
reinforcing our reliable customer service and supporting the communities where we operate. We
fully support Motiva's continuing transformation journey to become an autonomous integrated
downstream affiliate."
Dan Romasko, Motiva President and CEO, said: "Motiva has benefited greatly from the nearly
two decades of support and resources provided by Shell and Saudi Aramco. While the parties
work towards definitive agreements, Motiva will remain focused on our growth agenda, running
operations in a safe, environmentally sound and efficient manner while continuing to reliably
serve our customers."
Both Motiva shareholders are committed to supporting the venture during this period of transition
and assuring excellent customer service and continued health, safety and environmental
performance. During the period of transition, shareholder financing support arrangements for
Motiva remain in place and both shareholders are committed to maintaining Motiva's balance
sheet strength and liquidity.
Under the terms of the LOI, the partners will evaluate options and select an optimal deal
structure with the objective of formalizing a definitive agreement to divide and transfer Motiva
Enterprises LLC's assets, liabilities and employees between the companies. The companies will
make a further joint announcement in due course.
Notes to the editor

▪ Cooperation between the companies also includes: Saudi Aramco Shell Refinery Co.
(SASREF) - a 50:50 joint venture refining enterprise at Jubail Industrial City in Saudi
Arabia with a crude oil refining capacity of 305,000 bpd. Shell and Saudi Aramco also
have a multiyear relationship in the Showa JV in Japan. Shell recently reached an
agreement to sell shares representing a 33.24% shareholding in Showa to Idemitsu

China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) and Shell Nanhai B.V. (Shell) today announce
the final investment decision to expand CNOOC and Shell Petrochemical Company’s (CSPC)
existing 50:50 joint venture (JV) in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, China. This decision follows
the announcement of a Heads of Agreement in December 2015 between the two partners.
Subject to regulatory approvals, CNOOC and Shell have agreed that CSPC should take over
CNOOC’s ongoing project to build additional chemical facilities next to CSPC’s petrochemical
complex.
The project includes the ongoing construction of a new ethylene cracker and ethylene derivatives
units, which will increase ethylene capacity by more than 1 million tonnes per year, about double
the current capacity. It will also include a styrene monomer and propylene oxide (SMPO) plant,
which will be the largest such plant ever built in China.
Graham van’t Hoff, Executive Vice President for Royal Dutch Shell plc’s global Chemicals
business, said: “I’m pleased to confirm that we are going ahead with this growth project. We are
selective in our investments, and this decision underlines our confidence in the strong growth
potential for chemicals in China. It will position Shell and our partner CNOOC well to help meet
the growing needs of customers in this expanding petrochemicals market.”
“The expansion of the Nanhai petrochemical complex supports the Chinese long-term
petrochemicals development plan and mixed ownership reform direction. We’re delighted that
Shell will contribute to the project and our joint venture with industry-leading technology, with
improved value through integration with nearby CNOOC refineries to produce high quality
petrochemicals for China’s growing domestic markets,” said Dong Xiaoli, General Manager
Assistant of CNOOC and General Manager of CNOOC Oil & Petrochemicals Co., Ltd.
Shell will apply its proprietary OMEGA, SMPO and polyols technologies to produce 150,000
tonnes per annum (tpa) of ethylene oxide, 480,000 tpa of ethylene glycol and 600,000 tpa of high
quality polyols. This increases the volumes and diversity of CSPC’s high quality product range to
around 2 million tonnes per year, as well as enhances overall energy efficiency. It will be the first
time that Shell’s industry-leading OMEGA and advanced polyols technologies will be applied in
China.
The CSPC site, which has a strong track record of reliable and safe operations, currently
converts a variety of liquid feedstocks into olefins and derivative products. These are used in a
wide range of consumer goods, including computers, plastic bottles and washing liquids.

Royal Dutch Shell has published its Sustainability Report for 2015, which describes how it is
working responsibly to help meet the world’s growing demand for energy.
The Sustainability Report details Shell’s contribution to emerging energy transitions. This
includes a continued focus on natural gas, carbon capture and storage and biofuels as well as
other investments in low-carbon technologies such as hydrogen as a transport fuel.
In his introduction to the Sustainability Report, Shell’s Chief Executive Officer Ben van Beurden
said: “It was a significant year for the global community in 2015 with the adoption of the historic
Paris Agreement by 195 countries demonstrating a commitment to bring about a lower-carbon
energy system.
I believe that greater co-operation across society is needed for a successful energy transition.
More cross-sector coalitions – where business, government and civil society work effectively
together – will accelerate the pace.”
The Sustainability Report is reviewed by an external committee, consisting of seven experts from
a range of professional backgrounds. They bring a collective understanding of the sustainability
challenges faced by Shell. This is the 19th edition of the Shell Sustainability Report.
Shell has also published details of payments made to governments in 2015 where it has
upstream operations. This report, which details payments in 24 countries, is prepared in
accordance with the UK’s Reports on Payments to Governments Regulations 2014 (as amended
in December 2015).

▪ Responding to the changing landscape by re-shaping Shell

▪ Setting out an agenda for 2020 and beyond: grow free cash flow per share and returns
▪ Taking action to manage the down-cycle: delivering on lower costs, lower and more
predictable spending, asset sales and profitable new projects
▪ BG synergies target updated: expectation to deliver $4.5 billion in 2018
▪ Go ahead given for new Pennsylvania chemicals development. Chemicals and deep
water are now Shell’s growth priorities
▪ New energies established to develop commercial opportunities in the energy transition
▪ Potential for $20-25 billion organic free cash flow and 10% ROACE around end of
decade, in a $60 oil price environment
Shell Chief Executive Officer, Ben van Beurden, today provided an update on the company’s
strategy, that sets a clear course for stronger returns and free cash flow.
Setting his remarks in the context of a volatile industry backdrop, van Beurden said: “I see
important opportunities for Shell from the substantial and lasting changes underway in the energy
sector.
We expect to see robust demand for oil and gas for decades to come, in a global energy system
in a long-term transition to lower carbon fuels. As well as low oil prices today, we are seeing
higher levels of price volatility, due to geopolitical change, the speed of information flows, and the
pace of innovation in our sector.
By capping our capital spending in the period to 2020, investing in compelling projects, driving
down costs and selling non-core positions, we can reshape Shell into a more focussed and more
resilient company, with better returns and growing free cash flow per share.
All of this is underpinned by an unrelenting focus on safe and environmentally-responsible
operational performance, high quality and commercial project execution and prudent financial
management of the company.”
Turning to the recent acquisition of BG, van Beurden said: “The BG deal is an opportunity to
accelerate the re-shaping of Shell. Integration is gathering pace, and today we expect to deliver
more synergies, and at a faster rate.”
We are announcing an increase in expected deal-related synergies, from the $3.5 billion set out
in the prospectus, to $4.5 billion on a pre-tax basis in 2018, an increase of some 30%. We expect
to achieve and exceed the $3.5 billion synergies prospectus commitment earlier than expected,
in 2017, when synergies should be $4 billion. Our other deal-related financial commitments to
shareholders in the form of asset sales, debt reduction, and dividends, followed by share buy-
backs, are unchanged.
Van Beurden added: “With our continued strong focus on returns and growth in free cash flow
per share I want to create a world-class investment case for Shell shareholders.”
Van Beurden went on to set out Shell’s portfolio priorities, which have been revised to drive an
improvement in returns and free cash flow. Van Beurden defined three categories that play out
across different time scales:
Cash engines: conventional oil and gas, integrated gas, oil sands
mining, and oil products
▪ Cash engines are stable businesses, which underpin the financial delivery of the
company today. They should have strong and resilient returns and free cash flow, to fund
dividends and the balance sheet well into the next decade and beyond.
▪ We continue to invest in selective growth opportunities in these businesses, at a level

that enables positive free cash flow throughout the macro cycle. Through-cycle returns
here should be attractive and competitive.
▪ Integrated gas, which was previously a growth priority for Shell, has reached critical mass
following the BG acquisition and planned growth in liquefied natural gas (LNG),
particularly in Australia. The pace of new investment will slow here, and integrated gas
will now prioritise the generation of free cash flow and returns.
Growth priorities: deep water and chemicals

▪ Shell has advantaged positions and affordable growth plans here, which should create a
pathway to improved returns and material free cash flow from around 2020, as these
businesses become new cash engines.
▪ We give priority to growth projects in these businesses, such that free cash flow may be
negative at the lower end of the cycle. Returns should improve over the next 3-5 years.
▪ Brazil and the Gulf of Mexico represent the best real estate in global deep water. We are
developing competitive projects here based on this advantaged acreage. Shell’s deep-
water production could double, to some 900 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day
(kboed) in 2020, compared with 450 kboed in 2015.
▪ In Chemicals, the company already has brownfield growth projects underway on the US
Gulf Coast and in China. Today we are announcing the final investment decision on a
new, 1.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) cracker and polyethylene plant in
Pennsylvania, USA, which will use natural gas from shales production as its feedstock.
Once these projects are on stream, early in the next decade, Shell’s ethylene capacity
should reach around 8 mtpa, compared with 6.2 mtpa today.
Future opportunities: shales and new energies

▪ These businesses are expected to become significant growth priorities for Shell beyond
2020 as we establish clear pathways to profitability. They are themes with material value
and upside potential to deliver returns for Shell shareholders.
▪ Investment here remains relatively low, focused on current positions and identifying
potential opportunities. Free cash flow will likely be negative, and returns low, for some
time. Capital employed here is constrained until attractive opportunities are developed.
▪ In shales, Shell’s restructured portfolio is focused on North America and Argentina, with
substantial long-term growth potential.
▪ In new energies, there is potential for Shell to achieve material scale and profitability. As
the energy transition unfolds, we intend to establish a portfolio to build on our established
strengths in low-carbon biofuels, hydrogen and smart customer solutions; as well as in
solar and wind. Many of these activities complement the company’s natural gas strategy
today.
Overall, Shell’s focus is on re-shaping the company. We will retain the most competitive and
resilient positions, through targeted investment, and substantial asset sales. This is a value-
driven, not time-driven, divestment programme; and an integral element of Shell’s portfolio
improvement plan.
Updating our financial outlook

Following the BG acquisition, and as expected, Shell’s balance sheet gearing increased to 26%
at the end of Q1 2016 from 14% at the end of 2015.
Shell’s priorities for cash flow, as announced with the BG acquisition, are unchanged: 1) reduce
debt, 2) pay dividends, and 3) a balance between capital investment and share buy-backs.
Our free cash flow is being reduced due to low oil prices, and this could continue for some time.
In response, Shell is pulling four levers to manage the financial framework in the down-cycle.
▪ Capital investment will be in the range of $25-$30 billion each year to 2020, as we
improve capital efficiency and ensure a more predictable development funnel for new
projects. Investment for 2016 is expected to be $29 billion, excluding the purchase price
of BG, some 35% lower than the pro-forma Shell-plus-BG level in 2014. In the prevailing
low oil price environment we will continue to drive capital spending down towards the
bottom end of this range; or even lower if needed. In a higher oil price future we intend to
cap our spending at the top end of the range.
▪ New project start-ups since end-2014 should contribute some $10 billion of annual cash
flow by 2018*. Investment delivers new, profitable projects for shareholders.
▪ Programmes to sustainably reduce operating costs are in place across the company; we
expect to reach a run-rate of $40 billion of underlying operating costs at the end of 2016,
some 20% lower than the 2014 pro-forma level for Shell-plus-BG with potential for further
cost reduction.
▪ Asset sales, as planned, are expected to be $30 billion for 2016-18. We have earmarked
up to 10% of Shell’s oil and gas production, including 5 to 10 country exits, for disposal.
We expect to make significant progress on the first $6-8 billion of this programme in
2016.
As a result of Shell’s portfolio development and investment, we expect to see an improvement in
returns in the next few years, our debt reduced, and significant growth in free cash flow, across a
range of oil prices. For example, organic free cash flow could reach $20-$25 billion and return on
capital employed some 10% around the end of the decade, assuming $60 oil prices. This
compares to 2013-15 averages of $12 billion and 8% with average $90 oil prices.
Van Beurden concluded: “Our strategy should lead to a simpler company, with fundamentally
advantaged positions, and fundamentally lower capital intensity. Today, we are setting out a
transformation of Shell.”

Shell Chemical Appalachia LLC (Shell) has taken the final investment decision to build a major
petrochemical complex, comprising an ethylene cracker with polyethylene derivatives unit, near
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. Main construction will start in approximately 18 months, with
commercial production expected to begin early in the next decade.
The complex will use low-cost ethane from shale gas producers in the Marcellus and Utica
basins to produce 1.6 million tonnes of polyethylene per year. Polyethylene is used in many
products, from food packaging and containers to automotive components.
The facility will be built on the banks of the Ohio River in Potter Township, Beaver County, about
30 miles north-west of Pittsburgh. As a result of its close proximity to gas feedstock, the complex,
and its customers, will benefit from shorter and more dependable supply chains, compared to
supply from the Gulf Coast. The location is also ideal because more than 70% of North American
polyethylene customers are within a 700-mile radius of Pittsburgh.
The project will bring new growth and jobs to the region, with up to 6,000 construction workers
involved in building the new facility, and an expected 600 permanent employees when
completed.
“Shell Chemicals has recently announced final investment decisions to expand alpha olefins
production at our Geismar site in Louisiana and, with our partner CNOOC in China, to add a
world-scale ethylene cracker with derivative units to our existing complex there,” said Graham
van’t Hoff, Executive Vice President for Royal Dutch Shell plc’s global Chemicals business. “This
third announcement demonstrates the growth of Shell in chemicals and strengthens our
competitive advantage.”

Four-day festival of ideas and innovation inspires more than 30,000 visitors and special guests
including Pelé
The first Make the Future London festival, featuring Shell Eco-marathon Europe, today
celebrated some of the brightest and most exciting innovations helping to tackle the global
energy challenge.
The four-day event at London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park hosted more than 30,000 guests
of all ages, along with sporting legends Pelé and Kimi Räikkönen.
Make the Future London, which ran from 30 June and finished today, shone a light on the
innovations of award-winning entrepreneurs from Shell’s enterprise development programmes.
They included Pavegen, which transforms kinetic energy from people’s footsteps into electricity,
along with bio-bean, which uses waste coffee grounds as a sustainable fuel source. GravityLight
showed how a simple weight and pulley system produces light for communities in need of access
to clean and affordable power, and Capture Mobility revealed how it was developing wind
turbines to transform air from passing cars into electricity.
Football icon Pelé hosted a virtual penalty shoot-out between youth teams in Lagos, Nigeria, and
London. Each team jumped on Pavegen’s kinetic tiles to rack up playing time, which they used to
score as many penalty points as possible. Pelé commented: “Having helped launch the first
kinetic pitch in Rio, I’m so excited to be here again testing out this new energy challenge at Make
the Future London.”
Tom Robinson, the entrepreneur behind Adaptavate, a company that produces a biodegradable
alternative to plasterboard to enhance sustainable housing, was the focus of the festival’s biggest
brainstorm, known as the Shell #makethefuture Accelerator. He said: “By bringing together some
of the minds at events like this, we can work together to make great ideas a reality in
communities across the world.”
F1 superstar Kimi Räikkönen praised the “amazing, complex work” achieved by young students
taking part in Shell Eco-marathon Europe, which has been running for over 30 years.
The festival marked the first time the competition took place in London.
More than 200 student teams from 29 countries around the world arrived at Queen Elizabeth
Olympic Park after spending the last 12 months designing, building and testing their energy-
efficient vehicles to compete on a specially-built 2.2km urban track to see whose vehicle could
travel furthest on the least amount of fuel.
Young engineers competed in two main categories – one for Prototype vehicles and the other for
UrbanConcept cars.
Winners Microjoule-La Joliverie, from France broke the CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) record
by travelling 2,606.4 km using the equivalent of just one litre of fuel in the Prototype category.
Also achieving success was Lycee Louis Delage, from France who travelled a distance of
445.7km using the equivalent of a litre of fuel in their gasoline powered UrbanConcept car.
The Make the Future London festival saw the most significant development of Shell Eco-
marathon since its inception, with the introduction of the Drivers’ World Championship - a head-
to-head race against the 2016 UrbanConcept winners from North America, Asia and Europe to
find the quickest and most energy-efficient driver.
The winning team of the Drivers’ World Championship was Universitas Pendidikan from
Indonesia. The team has been awarded a week’s training with Scuderia Ferrari in Maranello,
Italy. They will meet the Formula 1 team and receive coaching on how they can improve their
technology for next year’s Shell Eco-marathon.
Norman Koch, Global Technical Director for Shell Eco-marathon said: “The 2016 track has been
particularly challenging for all teams and we have seen an incredibly high standard of
performance, as well as the determination and team spirit of champions.”

Notes to editors
Make the Future London is a festival of ideas and innovation that supports bright energy ideas
and provides a platform for innovation, collaboration and conversation about the global energy
challenge.
The four-day event took place at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London from June 30 to July
3.
Shell Eco-marathon is a unique, global competition that challenges students to push the
boundaries of energy efficiency on the road. There are three Shell Eco-marathon competitions
held throughout the year in Asia, America and Europe. The competition provides an arena for
students to test vehicles they designed and build themselves. It aims to inspire young people to
become scientists and engineers of the future.
Make the Future London featured six interactive zones, including
Future Energy
Showcased the story of energy and how it runs through our entire lives. Attendees tested
themselves in the energy zorbs, took a virtual reality journey beneath the earth, and looked
ahead to the cities and energy systems of the future.
Mobility
Saw the cars of the future built by top student teams from around the world, and attendees
watched them compete on a bespoke track around Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
City Life
Explored some of the most creative ideas that will change the way our cities work - scored a goal
on the energy-generating football pitch and enjoyed food from a BBQ powered by waste coffee
grounds.
Make Zone
A family friendly zone where attendees got hands-on with new technologies – they made a smart
'internet of things' device, created their own toy racing cars powered by salt water, and added
their bright ideas to London’s biggest brainstorm .
Ideas Incubator
Attendees met some of Britain’s brightest start-ups and young entrepreneurs. They were inspired
by the bright ideas that could change our world and learnt about the projects helping to
encourage and inspire our next generation of new thinkers.

Today, LNG Canada announces that its joint venture participants – Shell, PetroChina, Mitsubishi
Corporation and Kogas – have decided to delay a final investment decision on LNG Canada that
was planned for end 2016.
LNG Canada remains a promising opportunity – it has strong stakeholder and First Nations’
support, has achieved critical regulatory approvals, has important commercial and engineering
contracts in place to design and build the project, and through its pipeline partner Coastal Gas
Link, has received necessary environmental approvals and First Nations support along the
pipeline right-of-way.
“Our project has benefitted from the overwhelming support of the BC Government, First Nations
– in particular the Haisla, and the Kitimat community. We could not have advanced the project
thus far without it. I can’t say enough about how valuable this support has been and how
important it will be as we look at a range of options to move the project forward towards a
positive FID by the Joint Venture participants,” said Andy Calitz, CEO LNG Canada.
Through their efforts to build a strong LNG sector for Canada, and a critical, cleaner energy
alternative for the world, the governments of British Columbia and Canada have developed
sound fiscal and regulatory frameworks for success.
However, in the context of global industry challenges, including capital constraints, the LNG
Canada Joint Venture participants have determined they need more time prior to taking a final
investment decision. At this time, we cannot confirm when this decision will be made.
In the coming weeks, LNG Canada will continue key site preparation activities and work with its
joint venture participants, partners, stakeholders and First Nations to define a revised path
forward to FID.
LNG Canada Joint Venture Participants are Shell (50%), PetroChina (20%), Mitsubishi
Corporation (15%) and Kogas (15%).

Discovery further enhances Shell’s deep water position

Shell today announced a new exploration discovery in the deep water U.S. Gulf of Mexico. The
initial estimated recoverable resources for the Fort Sumter well are more than 125 million barrels
of oil equivalent (boe). Further appraisal drilling and planned wells in adjacent structures could
considerably increase recoverable potential in the vicinity of the Fort Sumter well.
“The Fort Sumter discovery builds upon Shell’s global deep-water leadership. Its proximity to our
nearby discoveries in the area, and to highly prospective acreage to the southeast, makes Fort
Sumter particularly significant,” said Ceri Powell, Executive Vice President Exploration. “These
successes demonstrate there is still running room in the producing basins of our heartlands
where large, high-value discoveries have the potential to further strengthen our deep-water
competitiveness.”
Fort Sumter was safely drilled in the Mississippi Canyon Block 566, located approximately 73
miles (117 kilometers) offshore southeast of New Orleans, in a water depth of 7,062 feet (2,152
metres) to a total vertical drilling depth of 28,016 feet (8,539 metres) measured depth. The block
is nine square miles (23 square kilometers) in size and is operated by Shell (100%). An appraisal
sidetrack well was later drilled to a depth of 29,200 feet (8,900 metres) measured depth.
Shell’s material discovery in this heartland builds upon recent Norphlet exploration success at the
Appomattox (2010), Vicksburg (2013), and Rydberg (2014) discoveries, bringing the total
resources added by exploration in the Gulf of Mexico for Shell since 2010 to around 1.3 billion
boe.
Shell global deep water, which is a growth priority for the company, currently produces around
600 thousand boe per day, and production is expected to increase to about 900 thousand boe
per day by the early 2020s from already discovered, established reservoirs.

Shell announces today that production has started from the Stones development in the Gulf of
Mexico. Stones is expected to produce around 50,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d)
when fully ramped up at the end of 2017.
The host facility for the world’s deepest offshore oil and gas project is a floating production,
storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel. It is the thirteenth FPSO in Shell’s global deep-water
portfolio and produces through subsea infrastructure beneath 9,500 feet (2,900 meters) of water.
Stones underscores Shell’s long-standing leadership in using FPSOs to safely and responsibly
unlock energy resources from deep-water assets around the world.
“Stones is the latest example of our leadership, capability, and knowledge which are key to
profitably developing our global deep-water resources,” said Andy Brown, Upstream Director,
Royal Dutch Shell. “Our growing expertise in using such technologies in innovative ways will help
us unlock more deep-water resources around the world.”
Stones, which is 100% owned and operated by Shell, is the company’s second producing field
from the Lower Tertiary geologic frontier in the Gulf of Mexico, following the start-up of Perdido in
2010.
The project demonstrates Shell’s commitment to realizing significant cost savings through
innovation. It features a more cost-effective well design, which requires fewer materials and
lowers installation costs; this is expected to deliver up to $1 billion reduction in well costs once all
the producers are completed.
The FPSO is also specially designed to operate safely during storms. In the event of a severe
storm or hurricane, it can disconnect and sail away from the field. Once the weather event has
passed, the vessel would return and safely resume production.
Shell’s global deep water business is a growth priority for the company and currently produces
600,000 boe/d. Deep-water production is expected to increase to more than 900,000 boe/d by
the early 2020s from already discovered, established reservoirs. Three other Shell-operated
projects are currently under construction or undergoing pre-production commissioning: Coulomb
Phase 2 and Appomattox in the Gulf of Mexico and Malikai in Malaysia.

Editor's note:
▪ Stones, employs an innovative lazy wave riser configuration, consisting of a steel
catenary riser with buoyancy added with an arch bend to decouple the FPSO’s dynamic
motions and subsequently increase riser performance.
▪ An ultra-deep-water mooring system maintains the FPSO’s location over the Stones field.
▪ 3D printing was used during the design phase to develop prototypes of the detachable
system for the project to ensure safety and prevent schedule delays.
▪ The development will start with two subsea production wells tied back to the FPSO
vessel, followed later by six additional production wells. Multi-phase seafloor pumping is
planned for a later phase to pump oil and gas from the seabed to the vessel, increasing
recoverable volumes and production rates.

Shell has reached an agreement with Dansk Olieselskab ApS for the sale of A/S Dansk Shell in
Denmark, which consists of the 70 thousand barrels per day Fredericia refinery and local trading
and supply activities, for approximately $80 million including working capital.
The transaction includes long-term agreements for the supply of crude oil and feedstocks to the
refinery, including GTL, and for the offtake of some products from the refinery. Approximately
240 people who are employed by A/S Dansk Shell will remain employed by the company as it
transfers to new ownership. The sale is expected to complete in 2017, subject to regulatory
approval.
The divestment is consistent with Shell’s strategy to concentrate its downstream operations on
areas where it can be most competitive. It follows the sale of Shell’s marketing business to
Couche-Tard in May 2016, and completes Shell’s exit from downstream activities in Denmark.
Couche-Tard operates the marketing business under the Shell brand through a Trademark
Licence Agreement.
Shell’s upstream interests in Denmark are not impacted by this transaction.

▪ #makethefuture campaign highlights how cooperation between Shell and entrepreneurs

is helping the development of more and cleaner energy ideas
▪ International musicians including Oscar-winner Jennifer Hudson, Luan Santana and Pixie
Lott join the movement by performing in Best Day of My Life interactive music video –
kick-starting an ‘energy relay’ for cleaner energy initiatives
The Shell #makethefuture campaign is highlighting the need for greater global collaboration to
create more and cleaner energy solutions, by helping to bring to life innovations from six smart
energy start-ups.
Technologies from the bright energy businesses will be showcased in Rio de Janeiro’s Santa
Marta community this month, before they are installed in communities that require urgent access
to cleaner energy.
The entrepreneurs’ innovations are being brought together in Santa Marta as it is benefitting from
an installation by Insolar, a solar energy start-up that is one of the featured entrepreneurs being
supported by Shell.
Insolar is fitting photovoltaic panels to some of Santa Marta’s most widely used community
centres, including a samba school and crèche, which are central to the life of the community’s
8,000 residents.
Young Brazilian entrepreneur Henrique Drumond who founded Insolar sees the project as a
significant step in his mission to help to bring cleaner energy to Brazil, where solar accounts for
only 0.02 per cent of the energy mix, with only 1,731 small-scale solar systems connected to its
grid – despite more than 2,000 hours of sunlight blazing on the country each year.
In Rio alone, an estimated 1.4 million residents of the city’s 763 favelas are affected by rising
energy prices and unreliable power supply.
The Insolar installation is expected to generate the equivalent of 185,000 days of free, clean
power over the lifetime of the solar panels.
Showcasing bright energy technologies in Rio kick-starts a global ‘energy relay’ to show
collaboration with leading energy entrepreneurs is vital to help to secure a bright energy future,
and to invite the world to support and participate in the creation of smart energy solutions.
The innovations that will be displayed in Santa Marta alongside Insolar include:
▪ bio-bean – which explores how to reduce the UK’s CO2 emissions from transport by
turning coffee dregs into a sustainable transport fuel,
▪ Capture Mobility – demonstrates how roadside turbulence from cars and trucks can
generate clean power for local communities,
▪ GravityLight – improves health and wellbeing in energy deprived communities by using a
simple pulley and weight system to generate electricity,
▪ MotionECO – uses waste cooking oil to help to create a market for renewable diesel in
China (in transport, public services and logistics) and discourage the harmful reuse of
cooking oil, and
▪ Pavegen – converts power from footsteps into renewable energy that can power a
community
Joining the #makethefuture movement as ambassadors are six award-winning international
musicians: Oscar-winner Jennifer Hudson, Brazilian singer Luan Santana, British performer
Pixie Lott, American DJ/Producer Steve Aoki, China’s pop star Tan WeiWei and Nigerian idol
Yemi Alade.
The artists are uniting with the energy entrepreneurs and Shell to help shine a light on the
worldwide need for access to more and cleaner energy.
A new interactive music video will also showcase each of the smart energy innovations.
Shell and the ambassadors are inviting people to show support for the Insolar project to help
bring solar power to communities and homes in Brazil. You can sign the pledge by
visiting www.shell.com/showyoursupport.
Proceeds from sales of Luan Santana’s latest DVD, 1977, will go towards the Insolar project to
help to fund the installation of more solar panels in low-income communities.
Royal Dutch Shell Chief Executive Ben van Beurden said: “I’m personally inspired by the
ingenuity of these innovators, and the ambition to forge a brighter energy future for our planet.
Collaboration and entrepreneurialism are essential to finding energy solutions that can enable
development and a decent way of life for people across the world while reducing carbon dioxide
emissions. These values are central to our #makethefuture campaign to help achieve a better
energy future together.”
Insolar director Henrique Drumond said: “My vision was to create a social enterprise that
provides communities with a cleaner source of energy. On my journey through the Shell
programmes that support entrepreneurs, including Shell Iniciativa Jovem, and the Accelerator,
the company has always supported this vision. I am thrilled to see this collaboration brought to
life in Rio. We hope Santa Marta will be an inspiration to other bright minds and unlock more
answers to tomorrow’s energy challenges in communities, cities and countries around the world.”
The launch of the global ‘energy relay’ will be celebrated on September 28 with some of the
#makethefuture ambassadors performing a series of concerts at the heart of the Santa Marta
community, during which the music video for the Best Day of My Life will be premiered.
In October, #makethefuture will move on to Kenya, where Shell is working with GravityLight – a
UK-based start-up that has developed a gravity-powered lamp designed to improve health and
wellness across Kenya by bringing clean, affordable light to low income homes.
The concert celebrating #makethefuture in Santa Marta and the Best Day of My Life music video
will be available on September 28 via facebook.com/Shell.
Jennifer Hudson said: “We all face moments of adversity in life and, often times, it’s simply the
hand one has been dealt. But there is so much that we can do to support one another as a
unified force and that is just one of the many reasons why I’m supporting the Santa Marta
community. My son David turned seven this year, and I want him to grow up and inherit a planet
where everyone is working together on one accord for the greater good.”
Luan Santana added: “I am honored to be one of the six artists participating in this project. I’m
committed to make my voice echo Shell and the entrepreneurs’ social action. Music produces an
exchange of energy between audience and artist, and I hope #makethefuture rocks the five
continents as it takes its energy relay around the world.”

RDS provides shareholders with a choice to receive dividends in cash or in shares via the Scrip
Dividend Programme (the “Programme”).
In some countries, joining the Programme may currently offer a tax advantage compared with
receiving cash dividends. In particular, dividends paid out as shares by RDS will not be subject to
Dutch dividend withholding tax (currently 15 per cent), unlike cash dividends paid on A shares,
and they will not generally be taxed on receipt by a UK shareholder or a Dutch shareholder.

Shell and Cosan have reached an agreement to strengthen the Raízen joint venture in Brazil,
through a change in its contractual structure. The partners have agreed to remove the mutual
time-bound buyout options included in the original joint venture agreement, signed in June 2011,
and in doing so have transformed Raízen from a temporary to a permanent joint venture.
John Abbott, Shell’s Downstream Director, said: “Low-carbon, sustainable biofuels play an
important role today and will be required long term for heavy duty and long distance transport.
We are pleased with Raízen’s strong performance. This commitment reaffirms the stability of
Shell and Cosan’s partnership, and our shared view of the long term objectives and value of the
business.”
Marcos Lutz, Cosan CEO, stated: “Transforming Raízen into a permanent joint venture
strengthens the partnership we built with Shell over the last five years, while paving the way to
continue our successful journey in Brazil. Our partnership with Shell is instrumental to being
recognized for excellence in the development, production and marketing of sustainable energy.”
Raízen is the world’s largest individual producer of sugar cane, producing more than four million
tons of sugar, more than two billion litres of ethanol and 2.2 gigawatt hours of cogenerated
energy in 2015. It also operates a network of more than 5,800 Shell-branded service stations in
the country. The combination of Shell and Cosan’s retail experience and technical expertise have
contributed to Raizen’s strong financial and operational performance since the venture was
established.

Notes to editors
Raizen is a 50:50 joint venture (JV) between Shell and Cosan.
The changes to the JV agreement remove the time-bound options for Shell and Cosan to buyout
each other’s shares in the JV from 2021 and replace them with event triggered options. Event
triggered options are a common feature in JV agreements and are designed to address specific
risks that may arise during the life of the JV. They have been added to provide each party with
the comfort that Raizen will continue its strong performance to date and that the two
shareholders are aligned in their long term objectives with respect to the JV.

Shell has started oil production from the Malikai Tension-Leg Platform (TLP), located 100-
kilometres off the coast of the Malaysian state of Sabah.
Located in waters up to 500-metres deep, Malikai is Shell’s second deep-water project in
Malaysia, following the successful start-up of the Gumusut-Kakap platform in 2014. Malikai is
expected to have a peak production of 60,000 barrels per day. As the company’s first TLP in the
country, Malikai is an example of the strength of Shell’s global deep-water business, applying
TLP expertise from decades of operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.
“Malikai marks an important milestone for Shell, its partners, Sabah and Malaysia. The project
has demonstrated our capability in delivering competitive deep-water projects utilising our global
expertise.” said Andy Brown, Upstream Director, Royal Dutch Shell.
The project features a cost-effective platform design and a unique, industry-first set of risers, or
pipes that connect the platform to the wells for oil production, which required fewer drilling
materials and lower costs.
Designed and built in Malaysia, the Malikai TLP project has allowed Shell to share deep-water
expertise with Malaysian energy companies, playing an active role in helping the government
develop the nation’s deep-water resources and deep-water service industry.
The Malikai project is a joint venture between Shell (35%, operator), ConocoPhillips Sabah
(35%) and PETRONAS Carigali (30%).
Globally, Shell’s deep-water business is a growth priority for the company and currently produces
600,000 boe/d. Deep-water production is expected to increase to more than 900,000 boe/d by
the early 2020s from already discovered, established reservoirs. Two other Shell-operated
projects are currently under construction or undergoing pre-production commissioning: Coulomb
Phase 2 and Appomattox in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. In September 2016, Shell announced the
start of production at Stones in the Gulf of Mexico, the world’s deepest offshore oil and gas
project beneath 2,900 metres of water.

Note to editors
▪ Malikai is the first deep-water TLP in Malaysia and the first Shell TLP outside of the Gulf
of Mexico
▪ Malikai employs a tension leg platform (TLP), a vertically floating structure moored by
groups of tethers (tendons) at each corner. The groups of tendons are held upright in
tension, giving the platform its name.
▪ Production wellheads on deck (connected directly to the subsea wells by rigid risers),
instead of on the seafloor, allows simpler well completion and gives better control over
the production from the reservoir, and easier access for downhole intervention
operations.
▪ Malikai has a number of advanced deep-water technologies to unlock deep-water
resources safely and efficiently:
▪ A fit-for purpose riserless vessel to perform top hole operations, ahead of TLP
installation
▪ Shell's first TLP coupled with a tender assisted drilling (TAD) rig
▪ Application of the mud recovery without riser technology on a dynamically
positioned vessel.
▪ Oil and gas are sent 50km to the Kebabangan Oil Hub for processing before evacuation
to onshore Sabah Oil & Gas Terminal.

Shell today announced its Pearl gas-to-liquids (GTL) plant in Ras Laffan Industrial City, Qatar, is
currently operating at a reduced rate of production due to unforeseen maintenance required on
some or all of the plant’s 18 gasifier units.
Safety and asset reliability remain Shell’s highest priorities. Repairs are already underway and
operations at Pearl will continue at a reduced rate until repairs are completed. Shell is currently
carrying out technical assessments to determine when the plant will return to full production. In
the meantime, Pearl is producing at approximately 50% of plan.
Pearl has a volume of GTL products in storage and Shell will work closely with customers to
minimize impacts to supplies.
Note to Editors

production, processing and transportation of 1.6 billion standard cubic feet/day of gas from
Qatar’s North Field. It has an installed capacity of about 140 thousand barrels of oil
