}}{{nihongo|Showa Shell Sekiyu K.K.|昭和シェル石油株式会社|Showa Shell Sekiyu Kabushiki Kaisha}} is the subsidiary of the Royal Dutch Shell group in Japan. It was formed by the merger of Showa Oil Company and Shell Sekiyu which was begun around 1876 in Yokohama by Samuel Samuel & Co, the predecessor of Shell Group today. Showa Shell Sekiyu provides oil and energy solution business in Japan and worldwide.[1]

History

Origins

In 1900, Samuel Samuel & Co, which had started in Japan in 1876 by Samuel Samuel as an international trading business in Yokohama, created an independent petroleum division. It subsequently set up Rising Sun Petroleum Co. Ltd (which later became Shell Petroleum) to expand its distribution channels of candles and kerosene for lamps.

Before long, Samuel Samuel & Co, which expanded as Shell Transport, merged with Royal Dutch to form Royal Dutch/Shell. Rising Sun Petroleum continued to expand its operations as the base of the Shell Group in Japan.

At the same time, oilfields were discovered in Japan along the coast of the Japan Sea primarily in Niigata Prefecture. Hayama Sekiyu and Niitsu Sekiyu, the predecessors of Showa Sekiyu, were established amidst the production of domestic petroleum.

20th century

In 1947, Rising Sun Petroleum was renamed Shell Sekiyu and resumed business. Starting with a capital agreement between the Shell Group and Showa Sekiyu, domestic oil companies deepened the collaboration with foreign oil companies, and before long were preparing to be a key industry to support the energy needs of the impending recovery period.

Shell Sekiyu and Showa Sekiyu, which had played crucial roles since the dawn of Japan's oil industry, merged in 1985 to form Showa Shell Sekiyu.
