Shell Australia’s New Chief Ann Pickard to Lead ‘Major’ Spending on LNG

Shell said last month that a quick recovery in energy demand and prices was unlikely and that it would cut 5,000 jobs. Even so, Chadwick said “Australia is a growth area for us.” The headcount in Perth has more than quadrupled to about 260 people in the past four years, he said. “Operating Prelude will have implications we need to staff up for.” Shell employs about 2,500 people in Australia, according to its Web site.
