Answer: What is Shell Petroleum Development Company mean?

Shell Nigeria is the common name for Royal Dutch Shell's Nigerian operations carried out through four subsidiaries—primarily Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Limited (SPDC). Royal Dutch Shell's joint ventures account for more than 21% of Nigeria's total petroleum production(629,000 barrels per day (100,000 m3/d) (bpd) in 2009) from more than eighty fields.

The company has been controversial in communities in the Niger Delta, who point to it's poor environmental record and that most of the economic benefit from oil exploitation has not benefited local communities. The company has been responsible for some of the most significant oil spills in the Niger delta, and both Nigerian and European courts have held them liable for environmental destruction.
