Energy Window International (Media) – Shell clearly said: “We have made significant progress against our previously announced plan to integrate the technical divisions that today make up our Projects and Technology organisation, into our business lines. This simplification will empower our businesses by bringing these technical capabilities closer to where we generate value and progress our journey to improve cost competitiveness of the organisation.
“As a result of the progress we have made, Robin Mooldijk, President, Projects and Technology will step down after 35 years of distinguished service with Shell, effective 28 February 2026. Following Robin’s departure, Shell’s Executive Committee will reduce in size from nine to eight members.
Wael Sawan, Chief Executive Officer said, “I am grateful to Robin for his significant contribution to Shell throughout his career. Before joining the Executive Committee, he led the transformation of Shell’s refining strategy, combining our Refining and Chemicals businesses into a single Chemicals and Products organisation, bringing our customers and assets closer together and strengthening our already successful integration with Shell Trading. Most recently, Robin has successfully led the integration of our technical divisions into our Integrated Gas, Upstream and Downstream and Renewables businesses, to strongly position Shell for the future. I wish him well in his future endeavors.”
Shell also said in an email statement posted to Energy Window International (Media) that the changes as announced this day “do not affect” Shell’s financial reporting segments, which according to it will always remain Integrated Gas, Upstream, Marketing, Chemicals and Products, Renewables and Energy Solutions, and Corporate.
