Q2 2021 Royal Dutch Shell PLC Earnings Call (Q&A) Transcript
Welcome to the Royal Dutch Shell 2021 Q2 Results Announcement Question-and-Answer Session. Today's session will be recorded. (Operator Instructions)
I would now like to introduce Mr. Ben Van Beurden and Mrs. Jessica Uhl.
Well, welcome, everyone, to the live Q&A session on Shell's second quarter 2021 results. This quarter's performance is a result of the strength of our portfolio and how well positioned we are for the economic recovery.
We're delivering sector-leading cash and making progress towards becoming a net 0 emissions energy business. And we're stepping up our shareholder distributions today while continuing to invest for the future of energy. We are rebasing our dividends to USD 0.24 per share from Q2 2021, and we're launching buybacks of up to USD 2 billion for the second half of 2021.
And today, Jessica and I will be answering your questions, and we really look forward to them. So please could we just have 1 or 2 each, so everyone has the opportunity to ask
