It began to bring what the world wanted more closely in line with what the world needed.And we also saw in this change a clear opportunity for bp.

In February 2020, BP announced a Joint Venture with EnBW to develop and operate 3GW off Offshore Wind capacity in the Crown Estate Leasing Round 4. [189] This is BP's first move into Britain's Offshore wind market, however, BP currently provides a range of services to the Offshore Wind sector in the UK through its subsidiary ONYX InSight who provide a range of Predictive Maintenance and Engineering Consultancy services to the sector. [190] Inside bp we have thousands of scientists, engineers, economists and all kinds of other experts with the skills the world needs to reimagine energy. The partnership builds on Uber’s initiatives to help drivers go electric, including adding a Charging Map directly to the Driver app to show them where the nearest EV chargers are located as well as launching an EV Hub in the Uber Driver app, a one-stop shop where drivers can get information and compare the total cost of ownership (TCO) of an EV with a non-EV. In 2018, BP acquired Chargemaster, which operated the UK's largest electric vehicle charging network. [156] In 2019, BP and Didi Chuxing formed a joint venture to build out electric vehicle charging infrastructure in China. In September 2020, BP announced it will build out a rapid charging network in London for Uber. [157] Uber aims to have 100% of rides on the platform in electric vehicles, micromobility or public transit by 2040; bp’s ambition is to become a net zero company by 2050 or sooner and to help the world get to net zero.BP was also challenged over its record on gas “flaring” in southern Iraq. The avoidable burning off of gas released from oilwells results in large plumes of fire and has led to dangerous levels of air pollution in the area. Third, while oil and gas will still be needed for decades to come, they will be increasingly challenged. BP is the largest oil and gas producer in Trinidad and Tobago, where it holds more than 1,350 square kilometres (520sqmi) of offshore assets and is the largest shareholder in Atlantic LNG, one of the largest LNG plants in Western Hemisphere. [251] In response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, BP announced that it would sell its 19.75% stake in Rosneft, although no timeline was announced. [169] At the time of BP's decision, Rosneft's activities accounted for around half of BP's oil and gas reserves and a third of its production. [170] BP's decision came after the British government expressed concern about BP's involvement in Russia. [171] [172] However, BP remained a Rosneft shareholder throughout the whole 2022 year, which caused some criticism from the Ukrainian president's office. [173] Following World War II, nationalistic sentiments were on the rise in the Middle East; most notable being Iranian nationalism, and Arab Nationalism. In Iran, the AIOC and the pro-western Iranian government led by Prime Minister Ali Razmara resisted nationalist calls to revise AIOC's concession terms in Iran's favour. In March 1951, Razmara was assassinated and Mohammed Mossadeq, a nationalist, was elected as the new prime minister by the Majlis of Iran (parliament). [47] In April 1951, the Iranian government nationalised the Iranian oil industry by unanimous vote, and the National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) was formed, displacing the AIOC. [48] [49] The AIOC withdrew its management from Iran, and Britain organised an effective worldwide embargo of Iranian oil. The British government, which owned the AIOC, contested the nationalisation at the International Court of Justice at The Hague, but its complaint was dismissed. [50]

In February 2023, BP reported record annual profits, on a replacement cost basis, for the year 2022. On that basis, 2022 profits were more than double than in 2021, and they were also the biggest profits in the whole 114-year long history of BP. [177] I’m delighted we are building on our existing relationship and now have a global agreement to support ride-hail drivers with charging and more, at scale, helping Uber make their incredible 2040 ambition a reality." In recent months I have enjoyed meeting many shareholders, for discussions on the topics of greatest importance to them. I also commend every one of bp’s employees – for their resilience and their commitment to the task. The father of Ali Hussein Jaloud, who died days before the meeting from a form of leukaemia that has been linked to chemicals released by flaring gas, asked BP why it could not use its profits to help save his son’s life.In 2007, BP formed with AB Sugar and DuPont a joint venture Vivergo Fuels which opened a bioethanol plant in Saltend near Hull, United Kingdom in December 2012. [107] Together with DuPont, BP formed a biobutanol joint venture Butamax by acquiring biobutan technology company Biobutanol LLC in 2009. [108] BP is operator with 28.6% interest; Shell, 28%; ConocoPhillips, 24%; and Chevron North Sea Limited 19.4%. BP p.l.c. (formerly The British Petroleum Company p.l.c and BP Amoco p.l.c, stylised bp), is a British multinational oil and gas company headquartered in London, England. It is one of the oil and gas " supermajors" and one of the world's largest companies measured by revenues and profits. [4] It is a vertically integrated company operating in all areas of the oil and gas industry, including exploration and extraction, refining, distribution and marketing, power generation, and trading.

They are executing a strategy that your board believes should see bp successfully through the energy transition. Producing the energy on which societies depend today – while helping to build the energy system for tomorrow.
