Shell in The Netherlands

Most Dutch people know us from the 570 retail stations where they can fill up, recharge and buy fresh sandwiches and coffee. But Shell is more than the stations. The company that started over 130 years ago grew into one of the world's largest energy companies. And during that time, operations in the Netherlands have continued to expand.

For example, from Rotterdam, Shell coordinates the supply of lubricants for transport and agriculture, aviation fuel and raw materials. Shell Pernis produces the building blocks for healthcare disinfectants and muscle relaxants in Intensive Care. Amsterdam is home to one of our largest research centres in the world: the open Energy Transition Campus Amsterdam. From our campus in The Hague, we lead Shell's global energy transition. Pernis is home to one of our main refineries and Moerdijk is home to our Dutch chemical plants.
