Shell in Malaysia

Shell has been a partner in fuelling Malaysias progress for over 130 years. Our journey with the nation is intertwined in as much as Shell has played a role in growing the countrys energy sector Malaysia has also played a significant role in the companys progress.

Our business has diversified from a modest kerosene venture to a group of companies engaged in every aspect of the modern oil and gas business.

Today Shell maintains a strong multi-faceted presence in the country through our longer-term investments innovation-sharing and impact to local communities.

We helped pioneer Malaysias oil and gas industry and fuelled its growth. We discovered Malaysias first oil onshore then took the industry offshore and most recently into the technically challenging depths of Deepwater.

Shells strong retail network fuels the journeys of millions of Malaysian motorists every fact Shell is even able to offer one of the most differentiated fuel and lubricant products some of which were pioneered right here in the country.

We fuelled the ambitions of Malaysians: whether the generations of retail business partners; thousands of Shell scholars over the years; young entrepreneurs from our LiveWire programme; or Shell staff and alumni who are Malaysian luminaries today.
