石油巨头Shell公司今天通知在Aberdeen的员工随着完成对竞争对手BG集团的收购,公司的北海总部将搬至Tullos。
公司在今年4月完成了对BG公司价值数十亿英镑的收购,会将BG公司的员工从之前的Albyn Terrace基地转移到市南区的工作厂房内。
这一决定是对BG公司的前办事处下赌注,该办事处位于Aberdeen西区核心地带,是一座联排别墅。随着油价的暴跌,对办事处的需求减小,此次收购是为了增加公司在这方面的市场份额。
壳牌的一位消息人士表示将办事处设在市南区,停车便利,同时可减少将大批人员转移到新居带来的麻烦。
她表示但从数字层面上说很难让所有人在Albyn工作,Tullos地区人员较多,搬迁也不便。
“如果只从数字层面上说,真的是只有一个答案,那就是Tullos。”
“我们别无选择,在Tullos地区停车更方便,员工的工作效率更高。”
Shell公司自1972年在Tullos设立。在世界范围内共有员工94000名,英国本土员工6000名,其中大部分位于市东北部。
Shell公司近期以470亿英镑的价值收购了BG集团,此次收购预计会导致10000人失业。

Oil giant Shell is expected to tell staff in Aberdeen today that its North Sea headquarters will be based at Tullos in the wake of its takeover of rival BG Group.
The firm, which completed its multi-billion pound mega-merger with BG in April, will move around 200 former BG staff to its existing premises in the south of the city from their base on Albyn Terrace.
The decision is set to see BG’s former offices – a trio of linked granite-built townhouses at the heart of Aberdeen’s west end – go up for grabs in a market where demand for offices is falling as a result of the oil price crash.
A source at Shell said their offices in the south of the city worked better due to availability of parking and preference to avoid the effort involved with moving a much larger group to new premises.
He said: “If you look at the numeric side of it, it is highly unlikely you can get everyone into Albyn place – just from a number point of view Tullos is a lot bigger and the operation at Tullos is a lot bigger.
“If you look at the numbers, there really is only one answer and that is Tullos.
“That is nothing to do with choice – it is the practicality of parking for people and offices for them to work effectively.”
Shell has been based in Tullos since 1972. It employs 94,000 people around the world, and around 6,000 in the UK – with the vast bulk of these based in the north-east.
Shell’s recent £47billion takeover of BG Group is expected to lead to a further 10,000 job losses.
