Shell plans to cut, consolidate or relocate more than 150 offshore jobs in the Gulf of Mexico as part of an effort to shave 2,200 positions across its global operations this year. The restructure offshore follows job cuts at the company’s New Orleans office amid weak oil prices.
Shell has decided to move forward with “structural changes and personnel reductions” after reviewing its deepwater Gulf of Mexico operations, spokeswoman Kimberly Windon said in a statement emailed to NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune. Shell informed employees of its decision Thursday afternoon (July 21).
The company will reduce its Gulf of Mexico workforce — about 770 positions total — by 25 percent by the end of the year, Windon said. That equates to about 192 positions.
Windon said Shell is not sharing specific numbers for how many jobs will be eliminated at this time. She said some jobs could be relocated elsewhere in the company.
The statement said the changes are necessary “in order to remain competitive and better position Shell’s Gulf of Mexico projects for future growth.”
Thursday’s announcement affects only offshore jobs. Windon said the company does not anticipate any additional reductions of office staff at One Shell Square in New Orleans at this time.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
