Shell was formed in 1907 through the merger of Royal Dutch Petroleum Company of the Netherlands and The “Shell” Transport and Trading Company of the United Kingdom. The combined company rapidly became the leading competitor of the American Standard Oil and by 1920 Shell was the largest producer of oil in the world. Shell first entered the chemicals industry in 1929. Shell was one of the “Seven Sisters” which dominated the global petroleum industry from the mid-1940s to the mid-1970s. In 1964 Shell was a partner in the
world’s first commercial sea transportation of liquefied natural gas (LNG). In 1970 Shell acquired the mining company Billiton, which it subsequently sold in 1994 and now forms part of BHP. In recent decades gas has become an increasingly important part of Shell’s business and Shell acquired BG Group in 2016.
Shell is a constituent of the FTSE 100 Indexand had a market capitalisation of £156 billion at the close of trading on 11 February 2022, by far the largest of any company listed on the LSE. Until its unification in 2005 as Royal Dutch Shell plc, the firm operated as a dual-listed company, whereby the British and Dutch.
companies maintained their legal existence and separate listings but operated as a single-unit partnership. From 2005 to 2022 the company had its headquarters in The Hague, its registered office in London and had two types of shares (A and B). In January 2022, the firm merged the A and B shares, moved its headquarters to London, and changed its name to Shell plc. The Shell logo is known as the “pecten” after the sea shell Pecten maximus; the current version was designed by Raymond Loewy in 1971.
