  • Inquiry Into the Price of Unleaded Petrol
    SHELL AUSTRALIA’S SUBMISSION TO THE AUSTRALIAN COMPETITION AND CONSUMER (ACCC) INQUIRY INTO THE PRICE OF UNLEADED PETROL CONTENTS Introduction ............................................................................................................................2 Refining and importing..........................................................................................................2 Wholesale and distribution....................................................................................................4 Retail........................................................................................................................................6 Shell submission to ACCC Petrol Price Inquiry, July 2007 Page 1 Introduction This submission addresses issues relevant to Shell under the broad subjects, “Refining and importing”, “Wholesale and distribution” and “Retail”, which are set out in the Issues Paper published by the ACCC in June 2007. However, as Shell is essentially no longer a retailer, the submission makes limited comment on the retail market. As an overarching comment, Shell believes that the Australian market for unleaded petrol is highly competitive as evidenced by: • the fact that Australian fuel, both pre and post tax, is amongst the cheapest in the OECD countries; • Shell’s profits before interest and tax in 2006 equate to 2.3 cents per litre of fuel and over the last five years have averaged around 1.8 cpl or 1.5% on a litre of petrol); and • Shell’s investment of over $1 billion in the Downstream business

  • Senate Inquiry Into Corporate Tax Avoidance and Minimisation
    Shell Australia Pty Ltd Committee Chair ABN 14 009 663 576 Senate Economics References Committee 2 Victoria Avenue PO Box 6100 Perth WA 6000 Parliament House Australia CANBERRA ACT 2600 Tel +61 8 9338 6000 Internet www.shell.com.au Correspondence 29 July 2015 PO BOX A47 CDC Perth WA 6837 Senate Inquiry into corporate tax avoidance and minimisation Shell Australia1 welcomes the opportunity to make this submission in response to your letter of 14th July 2015. 1. Background – About Shell Shell2 is a global group of energy and petrochemical companies, with its headquarters in The Hague, the Netherlands. Shell operates in over 70 countries around the world and employs around 94,000 people. In April 2015, the Boards of Royal Dutch Shell plc and BG Group plc agreed the terms of a proposed merger. The parties are targeting completion of the transaction in early 2016 and are currently seeking regulatory approvals in a number of jurisdictions. Subject to obtaining these approvals, the companies’ shareholders will then be asked to support the proposal. Shell in Australia Shell has been in Australia since 1901 and the Australian business forms an important part of Shell’s global natural gas business. Historically, our significant investments in Australia spanned across both the downstream and upstream sectors. In 2014 Shell sold its downstream refining, marketing and retail distribution operations to Vitol, and our business is now largely focused within the upstream sector – although Shell continues to supply aviation fuels and lubricants. 1 “Shell Australia” refers to Shell Australia Pty Ltd or any of the members of the Australian tax consolidated group of which Shell Energy Holdings Australia Ltd (SEHAL) is the head company.

With increased investment in renewable generation, access to natural gas will have an important role as a fuel source for gas-fired generators to provide firming and security services. The creation of our energy trading venture – Shell Energy Australia – has enabled us to further expand into the east-coast domestic gas market. Through our QGC-LNG project and Shell Energy Australia we supplied around 16 percent of east-coast demand in 2019. We are active participants in the National Electricity Market (NEM) through the 144MW Condamine Power Station and are building our first commercial-scale solar project – Gangarri – in Queensland. The recent acquisition of ERM Power as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell Energy Australia, further unlocks growth opportunities to support the NEM as it transitions to more renewable flexible generation and storage. Long-term success of both the Australian economy and companies such as ours will be highly dependent on our ability to anticipate the types of energy and technology needed to support a reliable, flexible and cost- effective electricity grid. The confidence in this success needs to be driven by genuine leadership from governments and energy market bodies.

    2020 Biennial review into liquidity in wholesale and gas pipeline trading markets AEMC – consultation on scoping paper SHELL AUSTRALIA RESPONSE 20 February 2020 Shell is a global group of energy companies, with its headquarters in The Hague, the Netherlands. Shell operates in over 70 countries around the world and has been investing in Australia since 1901. Australia continues to be a priority market for Shell’s investment as Australia trends towards greater electrification in line with consumer needs for a lower-emissions energy system. On the east-coast, Shell has a majority interest in and operates the QGC-LNG project in Queensland. Through this project we have a strong presence in the east-coast gas market, supplying both domestic and LNG customers. The energy trading venture – Shell Energy Australia – has expanded our gas trading portfolio into the southern domestic gas market, introducing competition. We also operate the 144MW Condamine Power Station in the National Electricity Market (NEM). The recent acquisition of ERM Power as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell Energy Australia, further unlocks growth opportunities to support the NEM as it transitions to more renewable flexible generation and storage. Long-term success of both the Australian economy and companies such as ours will be highly dependent on our ability to anticipate the types of energy and technology needed to support a reliable, flexible and cost-effective electricity grid.
