Welcome Congratulations on being invited to participate in the <strong>Shell</strong> <strong>Drilling</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Production</strong> <strong>Camp</strong>. Thank you for deciding to take time out of your schedule to find out more about what <strong>Shell</strong> can offer. This guide is designed to provide an overview of the camp, its purpose <strong>and</strong> the people who will be involved during the day. Why do we hold these camps? The <strong>Shell</strong> <strong>Drilling</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Production</strong> <strong>Camp</strong> invites 40+ students <strong>and</strong> faculty members from various universities – as guests of <strong>Shell</strong> – for a week-long program at the <strong>Shell</strong> <strong>Robert</strong> Training & Conference Center where they are exposed to the latest in subsea operations, state-of-the-art drilling techniques, <strong>and</strong> other practical training, including Health, Safety, Security <strong>and</strong> Environment. <strong>Shell</strong> is at the heart of the energy <strong>and</strong> petrochemical business <strong>and</strong> one of the world’s most successful companies. Developing our business successfully into the 21st century <strong>and</strong> beyond will bring tremendous challenges with it: • Continually stretching what is possible technologically, • Enhancing the range <strong>and</strong> quality of products <strong>and</strong> services that <strong>Shell</strong> provides to the 20 million customers we serve daily, • Introducing ever more environmentally friendly technologies into our existing core businesses of Exploration <strong>Production</strong>, Oil products <strong>and</strong> Chemicals manufacturing, • Developing <strong>and</strong> commercializing more sustainable forms of energy such as solar or hydrogen power, operating in increasingly global markets without losing the ability to adapt to local circumstance <strong>and</strong> cultures. The quality of <strong>Shell</strong> people has always been, <strong>and</strong> remains, a cornerstone of the <strong>Shell</strong> Group’s strategy to meet these challenges, <strong>and</strong> our recruitment of individuals from universities provides a key source of new talent. For this reason, <strong>Shell</strong> places great importance on the quality of its recruitment process <strong>and</strong> has designed the <strong>Shell</strong> <strong>Drilling</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Production</strong> <strong>Camp</strong> with these objectives: • Firstly, to provide operations, craft <strong>and</strong> technology students the opportunity to experience <strong>Shell</strong>’s operations environment. • Secondly, to provide you with the best opportunity possible to demonstrate the skills <strong>and</strong> qualities you would bring to our businesses. • Finally, to allow you a window into the world of young professionals within <strong>Shell</strong>. What do we look for in c<strong>and</strong>idates? Your academic record was one key factor in asking you to join us. Our experience <strong>and</strong> research on successful professionals has, however, shown that academic skills alone are rarely sufficient to be successful within a company as challenging, dynamic, diverse <strong>and</strong> global as <strong>Shell</strong>. We have identified the following qualities as critical to high performance during professionals’ early years in <strong>Shell</strong>, <strong>and</strong> it is these qualities that we look for in potential employees. Capacity – Analyzes critical issues; identifies links; sees the wider implications; shows creativity; develops <strong>and</strong> assesses options for solutions. Achievement – Sets goals <strong>and</strong> targets; exhibits enthusiasm <strong>and</strong> motivation; deals effectively with obstacles; delivers results; deals with change <strong>and</strong> uncertainty; drives own development <strong>and</strong> learning. Relationships – Communicates clearly; influences others; identifies key stakeholders; works well on a team; works effectively with different people; supports other team members. For those individuals wishing to pursue a technical career in <strong>Shell</strong>, we are also interested in your technical ability. Please note: Whilst a basic level of English is required to participate in the <strong>Shell</strong> <strong>Drilling</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Production</strong> <strong>Camp</strong>, English ability is not a selection criteria in our recruitment process. <strong>Shell</strong> <strong>Drilling</strong> <strong>Camp</strong> Breifing <strong>Pack</strong> <strong>2008</strong>-2009.doc
