It was the end of an era for staff at Thames Valley Park HQ in Reading yesterday as gas giant BG Group ceased to exist

By Monday, BG will be part of Anglo-Dutch giant Royal Dutch Shell after a £35billion takeover.

The new group is now the world’s biggest trader of liquefied natural gas.

BG Group came into being in 1997 when it was demerged from British Gas.

BG employed 5,000 people from 70 countries.
