Wael
Sawan, chief executive officer, said: “I am grateful to Huibert for his
outstanding contributions to Shell, driving our customer value proposition
across a range of businesses and geographies, successfully leading the BG
integration, and most importantly, for leading the transformation in downstream, renewables and energy solutions, through a disciplined focus on
performance, portfolio and people.
"Today’s performance is testament to his
leadership, and he leaves downstream, renewables and energy solutions strongly
positioned for the future. I wish him well in his future endeavours.”

be appointed director, downstream, renewables and energy solutions, with both
joining the executive committee from April 1 2025.
In line with the company’s
ongoing transformation, it will continue to evolve its structure to enable its strategy to deliver more value with less emissions.
