Following a doctorate in geology from Cambridge University, much of Mark Moody-Stuart’s working life has been with Shell, largely working in countries outside of Europe. Early practical experience gained in Spain, Oman, Brunei and Australia was in 1976 focused on to the major challenge of leading Shell’s teams in exploring the U.K. North Sea—at a time when the fields in the northern North Sea were coming on stream and new exploration plays were developing. Thereafter, he left exploration for more general management, working in Africa, Europe and Asia. As Shell’s most senior representative in Turkey and Malaysia, he was involved in developing Shell’s businesses in those countries, working with national governments to initiate a number of major projects. In 1990 Mark Moody-Stuart returned to Europe, to The Hague, to take up the position of co-ordinator of Shell’s exploration and production operations outside North America.
