May 28, 2022
Muscat -To showcase Shell’s latest developments, Shell Oman conducted the Shell Technology Seminar 2022 that took place in both Muscat and Salalah and saw in attendance business customers, partners, and leading regional experts from Shell. The event, which was dedicated to showcasing Shell’s extensive range of lubricant solutions, also introduced guests to Shell’s newly rolled out Lube Advisor.
Responding to the increased reliance on remote technological solutions, Shell’s Lube Advisor is a breakthrough in modern technology. A wearable gadget, it supports customers in optimizing their lubricant operations by providing remote consultations. With a keen focus on safety, the Lube Advisor also provides real-time monitoring of field technicians while offering them audio-visual assistance when performing maintenance services. The seminar announced that Shell’s customers in Oman and the Middle East can now access the Lube Advisor to enhance the safety of workers, increase on-ground efficiency, and boost overall operational decision-making.
Dedicated to maximising equipment efficiency by reducing downtime and improving efficiency, the seminar also highlighted the various applications of Shell’s diverse range of lubricants and how the improved technology could save time, money, and even lives.
Commenting on the company’s take on innovation in the Lubricants sector, Mr. Mahmoud Al Abri, Commercial Lubricants - General Manager, Shell Oman, said, “As a local company with a global brand, Shell Oman is committed to utilizing our access to global know-how and share knowledge with our customers and partners, and the Shell Technology Seminar is an ideal platform for us to connect, engage and learn more especially in the presence of the Shell Lubricants experts and subject matter experts.”
Shell Oman is committed to working in line with the directions and priorities of Oman Vision 2040 and creating In-country value. This shows evidently in the recognition of the growing demand for sustainable products amongst consumers, where the company has been able to leverage innovation to enhance its product portfolio with a variety of products made in Shell Oman’s ISO-certified lubricant plant at Mina Al Fahal. These include the Carbon Neutral Shell Helix range of lubricants, among others.
The products are not only being supplied to the local market but also exported to a number of GCC countries and regional markets, offering added benefits of improved engine performance and better fuel efficiency.
Shell Oman will continue to power progress in the local community through innovative solutions while staying committed to its energy transition strategy to drive sustainability in the global community.

All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements of future expectations that are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, performance or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements concerning the potential exposure of Shell to market risks and statements expressing management’s expectations, beliefs, estimates, forecasts, projections and assumptions. These forward-looking statements are identified by their use of terms and phrases such as “aim”, “ambition”, ‘‘anticipate’’, ‘‘believe’’, ‘‘could’’, ‘‘estimate’’, ‘‘expect’’, ‘‘goals’’, ‘‘intend’’, ‘‘may’’, “milestones”, ‘‘objectives’’, ‘‘outlook’’, ‘‘plan’’, ‘‘probably’’, ‘‘project’’, ‘‘risks’’, “schedule”, ‘‘seek’’, ‘‘should’’, ‘‘target’’, ‘‘will’’ and similar terms and phrases. There are a number of factors that could affect the future operations of Shell and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements included in this announcement, including (without limitation): (a) price fluctuations in crude oil and natural gas; (b) changes in demand for Shell’s products; (c) currency fluctuations; (d) drilling and production results; (e) reserves estimates; (f) loss of market share and industry competition; (g) environmental and physical risks; (h) risks associated with the identification of suitable potential acquisition properties and targets, and successful negotiation and completion of such transactions; (i) the risk of doing business in developing countries and countries subject to international sanctions; (j) legislative, judicial, fiscal and regulatory developments including regulatory measures addressing climate change; (k) economic and financial market conditions in various countries and regions; (l) political risks, including the risks of expropriation and renegotiation of the terms of contracts with governmental entities, delays or advancements in the approval of projects and delays in the reimbursement for shared costs; (m) risks associated with the impact of pandemics, such as the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak; and (n) changes in trading conditions.

All forward-looking statements contained in this announcement are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Additional risk factors that may affect future results are contained in Shell plc’s Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 (available at www.shell.com/investor and www.sec.gov). These risk factors also expressly qualify all forward-looking statements contained in this announcement and should be considered by the reader. Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this announcement, 28 May 2022 Neither Shell plc nor any of its subsidiaries undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or other information. In light of these risks, results could differ materially from those stated, implied or inferred from the forward-looking statements contained in this announcement.
Also, in this announcement we may refer to Shell’s “Net Carbon Footprint” or “Net Carbon Intensity”, which include Shell’s carbon emissions from the production of our energy products, our suppliers’ carbon emissions in supplying energy for that production and our customers’ carbon emissions associated with their use of the energy products we sell. Shell only controls its own emissions. The use of the term Shell’s “Net Carbon Footprint” or “Net Carbon Intensity” are for convenience only and not intended to suggest these emissions are those of Shell plc or its subsidiaries.
Shell’s operating plan, outlook and budgets are forecasted for a ten-year period and are updated every year. They reflect the current economic environment and what we can reasonably expect to see over the next ten years. Accordingly, they reflect our Scope 1, Scope 2 and Net Carbon Footprint (NCF) targets over the next ten years. However, Shell’s operating plans cannot reflect our 2050 net-zero emissions target and 2035 NCF target, as these targets are currently outside our planning period. In the future, as society moves towards net-zero emissions, we expect Shell’s operating plans to reflect this movement. However, if society is not net zero in 2050, as of today, there would be significant risk that Shell may not meet this target.
