About

Shell investigates quantum computing applications for energy optimization and oil and gas operations. Its work explores quantum algorithms for reservoir simulation, molecular modeling for catalyst design, logistics optimization, and energy trading, with the goal of improving efficiency and reducing environmental impact across energy production and distribution. Shell has partnered with Pasqal to apply neutral-atom quantum computing to molecular simulation for new fuel and lubricant design. Its quantum team also works with IBM and Microsoft on reservoir simulation, where quantum algorithms could shorten the computational time needed for oil field modeling. Shell participates in the UK National Quantum Technology Programme through partnerships with UK universities and the National Quantum Computing Centre.
