Shell moves Houston offices

Supermajor Shell is moving most of its employees in Houston from its downtown location to the west side of the city.

The changes, which are expected to take effect in Q1 2017, will move about 3400 employees from the Central Business District to Shell's Woodcreek campus and its Shell Technology Center, according to news reports.

"In an effort to meet the ever changing market conditions and optimize resources for future opportunities, Shell will move all staff in the Houston Central Business District, with the exception of those in Trading, to Shell-owned facilities on the west side of the city, including both Woodcreek and the Shell Technology Center. The changes will be taken into effect the first quarter of 2017,” Shell said in a statement.

"Shell values our position and presence in the Houston area – for our ongoing business, offshore and onshore training needs, and long-time relationships in the community. Houston also remains critical to our core business; it's where we have much of our expertise, including engineering and operations support, as well two technology/research centers," Shell continued in the statement.
