Yes, BMW switched to Shell GTL on 1 January 2015 worldwide. (2nd to do so after Ferrari)

There are multiple threads around on all the boards on this.

All the Gas To Liquids (GTL) base oil comes from Qatar but the additive packages are regionally added at one of 4 mixing plants.
You can see where each one is mixed by the "made in xxx" on the back of the BMW branded bottle
