It manages exploration, production, and distribution of energy resources and aims to help the world move toward a net-zero future by growing its renewable energy capacity and reducing carbon emissions.

BP's new CEO to simplify company structure into upstream and downstream units

BP will reorganise into two main business units — upstream and downstream — under new CEO Meg O'Neill, who took the helm on 1 April, a spokesperson confirmed on Tuesday. The company currently operates three main divisions covering gas and low carbon, oil production and operations, and customers and products. The move aligns with calls from US hedge fund Elliott, which holds a stake of just over 5% in BP, for a simplified structure. There is no set timeline for the reorganisation. Two weeks ago, BP named Carol Howle as deputy chief executive to oversee portfolio review and strategy development. The restructuring marks a shift from former CEO Bernard Looney's 2020 overhaul, which emphasised renewable energy but drew investor criticism.

BP Whiting refinery lockout enters fourth week, shares trade 39.5% below fair value

BP has locked out more than 800 union workers at its Whiting refinery in Northwest Indiana, with the dispute continuing into its fourth week. Replacement workers have been brought in as negotiations over concessions remain unresolved. The lockout raises concerns about refinery safety, operational stability and economic impact on the surrounding community. For investors, the dispute represents a material operational and social risk factor, particularly as the duration extends and regulatory scrutiny increases. BP shares currently trade at £5.74, roughly in line with analyst targets, though Simply Wall St flags them as 39.5% below estimated fair value. The company faces a very high P/E ratio of 2,200.9x, with dividend coverage concerns as profit margins have declined year-on-year.

BP oil trading arm set for 'exceptional' Q1 as Iran conflict drives prices higher, net debt to jump to $27B

BP has forecast "exceptional" results from its oil trading division for the first quarter of 2026, driven by surging oil prices following US-Israeli military action against Iran. The Middle East conflict has disrupted energy markets, with the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz trapping significant Gulf oil volumes. The company expects net debt to rise to between $25 billion and $27 billion, up from just over $22 billion in the previous quarter, primarily due to working capital increases of $4 billion to $7 billion caused by the price environment. Upstream output is expected to remain broadly flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. The update marks the first since Meg O'Neill became CEO on 1 April, replacing Murray Auchincloss.

BP highlights unprecedented Iran war oil shock amid Strait of Hormuz closure

BP has highlighted unprecedented disruption to global oil flows caused by the Iran war and closure of the Strait of Hormuz, leading to large-scale interruptions to crude and product shipments. The company's chief economist stated the current shock differs in scale from previous oil supply disruptions, with implications for long-term energy market structure. The closure affects physical supply routes, shipping costs, insurance and crude pricing, impacting how integrated oil majors manage portfolios and risks. BP's comments suggest possible shifts in energy sourcing, transport and hedging, with potential implications for capital allocation between oil, gas and lower-carbon projects. BP currently trades at £5.84, roughly 70.5% below estimated fair value according to Simply Wall St, though profit margins of just 0.03% leave limited room for error.
