  • Shell is exploring a potential sale of its chemicals assets in Europe and the U.S., according to people familiar with the matter, part of a continuing drive to refocus the company's business on its most profitable operations.

Shell is considering the sale of its chemicals assets in the United States and Europe as part of a strategic review aimed at enhancing its focus on more profitable operations. This move is part of a broader initiative by Shell to divest non-core assets, which could include its chemical plants in Louisiana and the Netherlands.
