London, Apr 28: Royal Dutch/Shell will cut up to 30 percent of its global technology staff by 2006, the Anglo-Dutch oil major said on Wednesday Shell said it plans to cut between 1,900 and 2,800 staff as it streamlines its global technology division, adding it planned to offshore some of the jobs to Malaysia or to India.
The company said it expected to cut costs by $850 million by 2008.
"This is not a new or additional cost saving but part of quoted savings figures announced earlier this year," a Royal Dutch/Shell spokeswoman said. Bureau Report
