We have been in the news so much as of late as we are making deals left and right. I have a good feeling about the direction we are heading in.

@f2 why not, if the price is right
@f2 a good chance it could be the case. The disposals target announced in 2025 by end 2027 was $20bn, I make it c.$11bn including Castrol so still quite short of that target even if you count NS, Archea and Egypt
@dd will M&S be sold?
@dd would bp also sell all theUS M&C? So Travel centers, Thornton etc? Mob and convienance is not core oil and gas either? Where will it stop?
Everyday something new appears to be for sale.
@dd it will definitely be interesting to see.
Possibly bought by a Shell or ExxonMobil?
No North Sea. No Castrol. No Archea (ok, thank fu-k for that one), no lab/science capability in the western hemisphere, no Egypt. No Sunbury. No Aberdeen.
What exactly will this company be in 12 months time?
bP loved dumping assets at fire sale prices and then overpaying for the next asset
this only today, nothing official so another potential ring fence ! https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/energean-exclusive-talks-buy-bp-oil-gas-assets-egypt-say-sources-2026-08-27/
@OP Either you are naive or stupid, possible both. These deals rarely benefit the workers, only increase the stock price and C-Suite bonuses.
