Held for the third consecutive year, Shell Technical Case Challenge (TCC) 2012 received

overwhelming responses from students in National University of Singapore (NUS) and

Nanyang Technological University (NTU). Out of more than 150 applications, 24 third-

and fourth-year students from the departments of Chemical and Mechanical Engineering

were selected for this exciting challenge.

At the event, students were briefed on the refi nery basics; followed by an ice breaking session,

before working on a two-hour case study that was developed using real life situations in

refi nery operations. To reach an optimal overall solution, participants demonstrated strong

team spirit and leveraged on each others specializations, whilst working under time pressure.

The teams also impressed with their analytical skills and sound technical judgment in the fi nal

pitches to the judges, who were made up of a panel of experienced Shell Technical managers.

Eventually Team Deer Park, consisting of Ng Liang Hung (NUS), Lew Chi Min Junie (NUS),

Chang Cheong Joo Andre (NTU) and Lim Zheng Long (NTU) was awarded the fi rst prize for

its most comprehensive solution, followed by Team Bukom (Koh Yu Ing Ramona NTU, Au

Meng Jun NUS, Juliana Wijaya NTU, Zhang Xiaoxi NUS) and Team Rheinland (Li Jian

NUS, Tian Jiaxing NTU, Filipus Ferdian Triyonoputro NTU, Ong Zhe Han NUS) in fi rst

and second runner-up respectively. Besides attractive prizes, the students had the valuable

opportunity to interact with the campus ambassadors (Shell graduate hires), managers and HR

executives throughout the entire event. This activity offered students an insight into Shell, our

culture and the dynamism of working for one of the biggest Oil and Gas major in the world,

which we are certain they will take away with after the event!

The Shell Campus Ambassador team would like to congratulate the winning

teams and thank everyone who has made this event a success. The team will

also be planning their next activity in Quarter 1 of 2013, so do look out for it!

SHELLTECHNICALCASE CHALLENGE 2012

Proposing well-founded recommendations regarding investment decisions and addressing challenges from different perspectives.

The above sums up the experience of a group of 24 students, who attended the Shell Technical Case Challenge (TCC) 2012 on Oct 1, 2012.

Plot ploysIts good to secure a subsequent date, this solidifies your position and puts you further away from the friend-zone too hard ah? never mind let guru help you, just say you need help in school work. use it as a ploy to ask her out again. oh too nerdy ah? k use food. say you know a place with very nice food then take her there. trust guru, to get into a girls heart you must first go through the stomach.

DATING

SmellsGirls are attracted to nice smelling men (its just a natural instinct of them and that includes guys as well) armpits sweat a lot? use powder and a dark coloured shirt/t-shirt/polo-tee. still scared? shave off armpit hair. IT WORKS WONDERS.

heat and heat until the sugar dissolves. Cool the vinegarmixture.

Spread the hot steamed rice into a large non-metallic bowl. Sprinkle the vinegar mixture over the rice and fold the rice by a rice spatula quickly. Be careful not to smash the rice. To cool and remove the moisture of the rice well, use a fan as you mix sushi rice. This will give sushi rice a shiny look.

Place 1 sheet of seaweed on bamboo mat, press a thin layer of cool rice on the seaweed. Leave at least 1/2 inch top and bottom edge of the seaweed uncovered. This is for easier sealing later. Dot some wasabi on the rice. Arrange cucumber, avocado and smoked salmon to the rice. Position them about 1 inch away from the bottom edge of the seaweed.

Slightly wet the top edge of the seaweed. Roll from bottom to the top edge with the help of the bamboo mat tightly. Cut roll into 8 equal pieces and serve. Repeat for other rolls.

APPLE STRUDEL

Ingredients for Strudel Pastry:225g plain flour, plus extra for kneading1 whole egg 125ml warm milk teaspoon salt30g butter, melted

Ingredients for Apple Filling:5 pink lady apples60ml brandy 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon55g of raisins55g of flaked almondsZest of 1 lemon165g of brown sugar125g fresh sourdough breadcrumbs60g butter, melted for brushingAdditional Ingredients:Icing sugar, for dustingDouble cream, to serve

Steps:Preheat oven to 180C.

For pastry, place flour, egg, milk and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat at a low speed to combine. Add butter, increase speed and beat to a smooth dough. Turn onto a lightly floured bench and knead until smooth, elastic and doesnt stick. Place in an oiled bowl, cover and allow to rest for 35-40 minutes.

For filling, peel, core and quarter apples. Roughly cut into medium chunks. Place in a bowl with brandy, cinnamon, raisins, almonds and lemon zest and toss to combine.

Reserve 1/3 of each brown sugar and breadcrumbs and set to one side. Add the remaining brown sugar and breadcrumbs to the apple mixture, toss to combine and allow to sit, covered, for flavours to infuse.

Sprinkle bench with flour, roll out dough to a rectangle approximately 40x60cm and very thin. Take a 60cmx80cm piece of cloth or clean tea towel and sprinkle with plain flour. Use a rolling pin to help you transfer the pastry onto the cloth and gently pull pastry by the edges until it is transparent. Ensure thick areas are worked to a similar transparency and dough isnt sticking to the cloth. Trim edges.

Sprinkle pastry with reserved breadcrumbs and sugar, then spoon apple mix down the length of the pastry in a rectangular shape 3-4inches wide and piled up high. Sprinkle apple and pastry with reserved breadcrumbs and brown sugar.

To roll, use the cloth to fold the ends of the pastry over apples to encase, fold the sides of the pastry over to seal and roll up loosely into a thick, plump and elongated strudel shape.

Transfer to a baking paper-lined oven tray and brush with melted butter. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until golden and pastry is crisp.

Allow to cool slightly before dusting heavily with icing sugar.

Dressing fOr

Engineers are recognized in school (i.e in other faculties too) by our trademark t-shirts, shorts / berms and slippers. We seem to go everywhere in those comfys, but how should we dress up for the different occasions?

Guys, we know that the ratio of males to females in Engin is the same as pi. So how do you stand out among your fellow competitors for that cute chick you just passed by at the corridor? Other than dressing like youre heading to town, a more subtle way is to wear bright colours. This is not to say you should parade around school in the yellow FOE dry fit tee, which is so common nobody would take a second look at it. A nice bright tee with a funny/ cool design coupled with a pair of jeans/ chinos would probably do the trick. Also, do take note to stride into class with your bag over one shoulder if youre using a backpack. Carrying the backpack the primary school way is not very cool when youre dressed like a coolio dude (unless your strategy is the Im a nerd at this module so you can always ask me if you need help).

They say a first impression lasts. Creating a deep first impression would of course ensure that you stay memorable even in the waitress eyes. Most would dress conservatively, but it depends on your girl. If she is sweet and shy, go for the casual gentlemen look with a shirt and chinos. Take care to not look as if you are preparing to go to work, you can always un-tuck the back of your shirt if youre _WWwearing a collared one. However if youve got a wild and sexy girl, go for a bolder look with shirt and vest, or a cool biker jacket. Be careful though, not everyone can pull off a vest without looking like a waiter. When all fails, you can always wear eye liner for the goo-goo eyes effect like how the Korean artistes do.

If your purpose is to land a few ladies' numbers, youd better dress to impress. We know that guys have limited choices in the wardrobe as compared to the ladies. This is why accessories matter! Accessories ensure that you do not look like any other person and also say a lot about your personality. Simple little things such as a skinny tie, a pair of nerdy lens-less specs, a tie bow would add flavor to the otherwise standard shirt and pants. If youre feeling sexy, throw on a leather jacket, which could up your chance of knowing those hot dancing chicks at the dance floor. Do remember to leave the first button (maybe the second too if you have a nice chest) undone for a sexier look.

Chances are, your exams would be held at the same time as several other modules. Which means youll get to check out those Biology girls who are taking the same GEM module as you, and those Sociology girls who are taking their finals in the hall next to yours. How do you capture their attention when youre waiting for the hall doors to open? A good and practical way is to have a wool or cotton pullover (crew or V-neck) over a collared shirt. Not only does this combination keep you warm in the chilly exam halls, itll also give you that Japanese college student vibe that some girls love.

TuTorial wiThYour Crush in iT

Although there are few girls in Engin, it doesntmean there are NO girls in Engin. However, ona normal school day, youll stand out simply bywearing a dress to tutorial. Yours truly had sat atthe last row in a class and had witnessed the rowof rooster/bald/bird nest hair heads slowly rotatingto follow a girl as she sashayed in to take a seat.Just be sure to enter a few minutes late so that themaximum number ofguys will be there.

FirsT DaTeYou cant go wrong with a dress, or a pretty top and skirt. Spice up your outfit with statement accessories, and check that your armpits are bald if your top is sleeveless. Bonus points will be given if you can magically transform (i.e. using eyeliner and gang) your eyes into those big watery anime eyes. However, advanced makeup techniques such as smokey eyes should be avoided if you are a noob at makeup. The last thing you want is to look like someone punched you in the eyes.

FOR HER

WARDROBE

TuTorial wiThGirls have the privileges of having a myriad of choices. Purposely wear a low cut bra beneath a see-through lace top if you want free drinks that night. If youre feeling adventurous, take your Daddys shirt and cut holes at strategic locations. Pair the shirt with a belt and youre good to go! For the conservative ladies, mini dresses are your best bet. To show off your sexy contours, buy two sizes down from your usual size so that the cloth hugs your body like a rice dumpling. However, if youre a size S lady, you might have to go shopping at KiddyPalace.

Bare more skin. This is especially so for the modules with help sheets. A low cut top or a pair of mini shorts that shows off your butt cheeks when you walk are immensely helpful to ensure that you can successfully steal those help sheets your admirers are holding onto. Dont worry, theyll be too distracted to notice what your sneaky hands are doing. This is potentially the best way to pull the bell curve towards you, no matter where you are.

Picking up chicks

There have been lots of controversies about starting the first move and since primitive times, men have been able to approach woman so why not you? Here are some tips if you have been trying and yet rip no results.

BE CONFIDENTWomen like men who care about themselves, the way they look, dress, how they hold their forks and spoons, even habits like scratching your nose or shaking your legs while on idle. They DO notice it. I propose a vital mirror check before going out with a girl you like or even if she happens to be your schoolmate, it is always good to leave a good impression of yourself. When you are groomed in a way that seems satisfactory, you will be inclined to being confident of yourself and in that way, you will not be too shy to look into her eyes or even feel inferior when being around her. (if shes the goddess that you deem she is)

GIVE GIFTSEveryone loves receiving presents dont they. Heres a season to be jolly lalalal lalala. Always try to give her something that could remind her of you, it doesnt necessarily mean diamonds or expensive items, save those for later. Youll be surprised that the ones that actually move her would be handmade presents like a pretty card or letter or even food.

Im not drunk, Im just intoxicated by you.

I was so enchanted by your beauty that I ran into that wall over there. So I am going to need your name and number for insurance purposes..

If I were a stop light, Id turn red everytime you passed by, just so I could stare at you a bit longer.

For a moment I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Now I see that I am very much alive, and heaven has been brought to me.

Sorry, but you owe me a drink. [Why?] Because when I looked at you, I dropped mine.

Do you have a BandAid? I just scraped my knee falling for you.

Be unique and different, say yes.. Fascinating. Ive been looking at

your eyes all night long, cause Ive never seen such dark eyes with so much light in them.

Most people like to watch the Olympics, because they only happen once every 4 years, but Id rather talk to you cause the chance of meeting someone so special only happens once in a lifetime.

Youre so beautiful that you made me forget my pickup line.

You shouldnt wear makeup. Its messing with perfection!.

If a thousand painters worked for a thousand years, they could not create a work of art as beautiful asyou.

Damn, if being sexy was a crime,

Shell remember those for sure. By giving her gifts, not only will she be happy, it would also be a less obvious sign that shell know that you find interest in her instead of having so tell herso.

BE YOURSELFThere is no need to complicate things by trying to be someone that youre not. Imagine waking up one day not being that person that you have been showing to her and what will happen? Shell get an even greater shock than she would have if you had just been yourself from the start. If there are things that she seems

PICKUP CHICKS

dissatisfied with you about, make changes! Its always good to have a compromise if you think that she isnt what you think she is as well.

MAKE HER THE MAIN ATTRACTION You need to give her your 110% attention. You could start things going by commenting on how beautiful she looks, noticing things about her thats new. A haircut, brow trim, lipstick, nail polish, etc.. Shell feel as though you have been noticing her all this while (which you do cause youre a stalker) and let blood rush to her face. Itll be a bonus if you see how cute she is when

she blushes. Dont get too close though, if youve just started out as friends, observe the spaces in between you both and not rush into trying to creep close. Shell just think youre a creep and most likely be disgusted.

Hopefully these few tips are of help to you guys out there.

Happy valentines!

Are you from Tennessee? Because youre the only ten I see!

Are you an interior decorator? When i saw you the room becamebeautiful.

There is something wrong with my cell phone. It doesnt have your number in it.

Do you have a twin sister? [NO?] Then you must be the most beautiful girl in the world!

You look beautiful today, just like every other day.

Picture tiles (inexpensive yet beautiful)If your mate enjoys placing pictures in her house, make them: PICTURE TILES! Even better, if you use a waterproof spray coating, they can easily turn into a set of coasters. Glue some thin cork material on the bottom for extra gripping power. Whether youre making picture tiles or coaster, you can expect each of these to cost around 50 to 75 cents. But the thought that goes into them? Priceless.
