The Digital Transformation of Shell


Shell has been a pioneer in the development and deployment of digital technologies for decades. Today, we have over 100 AI applications in various stages of development and deployment across our businesses; a data lake with trillions of rows of data, and are monitoring thousands of pieces of equipment using machine learning across assets in upstream, downstream manufacturing, and integrated gas.

Anyone can develop a small-scale proof of concept with a machine learning model that meets a specific local requirement. But, to make an impact and maintain it at scale, we needed to develop solutions that can be deployed globally at a rapid pace. To do this, we are standardizing approaches and aligning on common data structures, platforms, tools, and ways of working across businesses. 

At Shell, we use advanced infrastructure and partner with some of the world’s best tech and cloud providers to accelerate and scale digitalization across our businesses. We are working with companies like C3 AI, Microsoft, and Baker Hughes to build on each other’s strengths to deliver competitive and affordable technology and to actively participate in the energy transition to lower-carbon economies that can thrive on low-carbon energy systems.
