Offshore/subsea systems
Shell became the first international company to operate producing fields offshore Brazil and the first to navigate the country’s complex and detailed decommissioning permitting process, which involved extensive environmental assessments, regulatory approvals, and coordinated stakeholder engagement.
North Sea tieback to the Troll C platform could begin production by the end of 2029.
The field, which holds the first production license on the Norwegian Continental Shelf, sent oil to the Jotun FPSO on 23 June.

Since the late 1930s, the offshore industry has advanced from the first platform in 14 ft of water to the ultradeepwater 20K era. Driven by seismic, drilling, and development breakthroughs, the industry has pushed into deeper waters, high-pressure reservoirs, and new frontiers like Guyana, continually expanding the limits of offshore exploration.
