[Alicia Williams]

We at Shell GameChanger bridge the gap between lab bench scale science and commercially viable products.

[Video footage]

Cut to close up of the left of Alicia Williams face. She is positioned right of frame, looking out left of frame. White light shines from behind, reflecting off the camera and creating twinkling lighting. Cut to wide shot showing Alicia sitting on a chair back right of grey room with white light patterned on the black wall and white geometric shapes flitting across screen. She is wearing a purple suit with blue blouse and black loafers.

We are essentially an accelerator programme for early stage start-ups with potentially relevant ideas for the energy industry.

[Video footage]

Fade across image of right of Alicia’s face, right of frame, into close-up of left of Catherine Smura’s face. Light and white geometric shapes flit and twinkle across screen Fade into medium shot of Catherine sitting in a chair on the grey set. She is wearing a long-sleeved white shirt. The light blurs around her as the camera pulls focus and blurs.

Cut to close up of a hand holding a small square piece of metallic equipment with bolts in a circle around the edge. Light and white geometric shapes fade in and out of the shot. Cut to medium shot of Nicholas Flanders sitting on the grey set. He is wearing a black shirt and holds the piece of equipment up in front of his chest. Light plays across the frame and the focus shifts between Nicholas and the light. Cut to close-up of the right side of Nicholas’s head. He is left of frame looking out the right side of the shot.

At Sisprobe we developed a technology that uses the natural seismic vibrations to explore and monitor geothermal and oil and gas reservoirs.

[Video footage]

Cut to close-up of the right side of Florent’s head. He is positioned left of frame and looks off right of shot. Light plays across the shot.

[Florent Brenguier]

That’s far more environmentally friendly than current methods.

They really had the idea of the end user and what would be required to change a lab bench product to a real, viable service for the industry.

[Video footage]

Fade and blur into medium shot of Nicholas sitting on the grey set and speaking into camera. Light plays across the shot. Cut to close-up of right side of Nicholas’s head. He is left of frame, speaking off to the right of the shot. Light ghosts a mirror of his image right of shot and white geometric shapes float in and out of frame.

[Nicholas Flanders]

It’s given us access to what industrial-scale technologists think about. So it’s allowed us to focus on where to priorities our efforts.

[Video footage]

Blur fade to white, fading into close-up of Alicia angled to the left of shot and smiling. Lens flare leaves a rainbow mark centre of frame and light plays across the shot.

Fail fast is a key concept of the programme. It’s not, of course, that we want the companies to fail. We want them to succeed. But in order to do this we want to work with them to identify the highest risk elements and then to address those first within the project and get them out the way before we move on.

Partnering with a team of both technical and business experts allowed us to brainstorm and design our milestones so that we’re able to frontload the project to tackle key risk factors and game stoppers such as manufacturability and scalability.

[Video footage]
