The rebranding was part of an effort to portray BP as an energy company, not just an oil company: one that incorporated solar energy in its portfolio and was willing to move away from oil. BP replaced its logo with a vibrant green-white-and-yellow sunburst named after Helios, the ancient Greek sun god. The logo was meant to connote "commitment to the environment and solar power" and promote the new bp "as the supermajor of choice for the environmentally-aware motorist."[1] The lower-case letters were chosen "because focus groups say bp is friendlier than the old imperialistic BP," which stood for British Petroleum.[2] Along with its new name, bp launched a new line of petrol station in the US, UK and Australia called bp connect, intended to "reposition BP Amoco, an old- economy gas station giant, into a progressive, environmentally friendly retailer." [3] Petrol is just one of many items for sale at the high-tech stations, which are equipped with solar panels.

  • Remediation and Restoration of Northern Gulf of Mexico Coastal Ecosystems Following the Deepwater Horizon Event
    3 REMEDIATION AND RESTORATION OF NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO COASTAL ECOSYSTEMS FOLLOWING THE DEEPWATER HORIZON EVENT Michael J. Blum, Brittany M. Bernik, Thomas Azwell, and Eric M.V. Hoek 3.1 INTRODUCTION On April 20, 2010, an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) drilling platform and blowout of the Macondo well 1500 m below resulted in the worst marine oil spill on record. An estimated 205 million gallons of crude oil and 260,000–520,000 tons of methane (the energy equivalent of 80–155 million gallons of crude oil) were released into the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) over the following 87 days (Camilli et al., 2012; Joye et al., 2011; McNutt et al., 2011). The DWH blowout was unlike all other well-studied crude oil releases into marine environments. The blowout resulted in a massive shore-bound surface spill, but the discharge of oil and gas under high pressure at extreme depth also resulted in unprecedented deep-ocean persistence of highly dispersed hydrocarbons. Addressing both surface and subsurface conditions posed unanticipated challenges to governmental responses shaped by traditional surface spills (Peterson et al., 2012). Response efforts not only identified major gaps in baseline knowledge of vulnerable ecosystems (Peterson et al., 2012) but also demonstrated that advances in deepwater drilling far outpaced advances in spill containment and shoreline remediation.

  • Trinidad Sets World Standards
    June 1999 Trinidad sets world standards THE doubters who insisted four years ago that a single train lique- fied natural gas (LNG) plant could not be built on a greenfield site in southwestern Trinidad for under $1bn will finally be silenced on June 25 as the construction, testing and work come to an end and the plant is formally handed over to its owner, Atlantic LNG, by con- tractor Overseas Bechtel. “Unique” is the word used by Simon Bonini, president of BG Trinidad and soon-to-be vice-president, LNG, for BG plc in London, to describe the Atlantic achievement. “The project lacked Atlantic LNG the economies of scale the engineers said was vital if we were to get our unit costs down to a reasonable level,” he recalls. “We were going against all conventional LNG wisdom. Venezuela was expected to beat us to the punch. Yet, we pulled it off.” Not only did the five shareholders – Amoco Trinidad (LNG) BV (34%), British Gas Trinidad LNG (26%), Repsol LNG Port of Spain BV (20%), Cabot Trinidad LNG Ltd (10%) and NGC Trinidad and Tobago LNG (10%) – pull it off, they established world LNG records along the way: I Atlantic LNG is the world’s largest single train LNG facility, involving 164 bn cf of gas a year input and 3m tonnes a year of LNG output; I It is the world’s lowest cost single train LNG facility – the origi- nal cost of $1bn, including financing cost, was cut to $950m; I It was the world’s fastest LNG project, taking six-and-a-half years from conception to completion, including 34 months for con- struction and handover; I It used ground-breaking

  • Petroleum Reserves and Undiscovered Resources in the Total Petroleum Systems of Iraq: Reserve Growth and Production Implications
    GeoArabia, Vol. 9, No. 3, 2004 Petroleum Systems, Iraq Gulf Petrolink, Bahrain Petroleum reserves and undiscovered resources in the total petroleum systems of Iraq: reserve growth and production implications Mahendra K. Verma, Thomas S. Ahlbrandt and Mohammad Al-Gailani ABSTRACT Iraq is one of the world’s most petroleum-rich countries and, in the future, it could become one of the main producers. Iraq’s petroleum resources are estimated to be 184 billion barrels, which include oil and natural gas reserves, and undiscovered resources. With its proved (or remaining) reserves of 113 billion barrels of oil (BBO) as of January 2003, Iraq ranks second to Saudi Arabia with 259 BBO in the Middle East. Iraq’s proved reserves of 110 trillion cubic feet of gas (TCFG) rank tenth in the world. In addition to known reserves, the combined undiscovered hydrocarbon potential for the three Total Petroleum Systems (Paleozoic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous/Tertiary) in Iraq is estimated to range from 14 to 84 BBO (45 BBO at the mean), and 37 to 227 TCFG (120 TCFG at the mean). Additionally, of the 526 known prospective structures, some 370 remain undrilled. Petroleum migration models and associated geological and geochemical studies were used to constrain the undiscovered resource estimates of Iraq. Based on a criterion of recoverable reserves of between 1 and 5 BBO for a giant field, and more than 5 BBO for a super-giant, Iraq has 6 super-giant and 11 giant fields, accounting for 88% of its recoverable reserves, which include proved reserves and cumulative production. Of the 28 producing fields, 22 have recovery factors that range from 15 to 42% with an overall average of less than 30%.

  • International Oil Companies the Death of the Old Business Model
    Research Paper Paul Stevens Energy, Environment and Resources | May 2016 International Oil Companies The Death of the Old Business Model Contents Summary 2 1 Introduction 4 2 What is the Old IOC Business Model? 9 3 What are the Signs That the Old Model is No Longer Working? 12 4 Why Has the Old Model Been Failing? 14 5 Would the Failure of the IOCs’ Business Model Matter? 30 6 What are the Possible Solutions Available to the IOCs? 32 7 Conclusion 37 Bibliography 38 Acknowledgments 43 About the Author 44 1 | Chatham House International Oil Companies: The Death of the Old Business Model Summary The future of the major international oil companies (IOCs) – BP, Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell and Total – is in doubt. The business model that sustained them during the 20th century is no longer fit for purpose. As a result, they are faced with the choice of managing a gentle decline by downsizing or risking a rapid collapse by trying to carry on business as usual. Most commentary on the IOCs’ problems has focused on the recent fall in oil prices and the growing global commitment to tackle climate change. Important though these are, the source of their predicament is not confined to such recent developments over which they have no control. Their problems are more numerous, run deeper and go back further. The prognosis for the IOCs was already grim before governments became serious about climate change and the oil price collapsed. The most recent iteration of the IOCs’ business model emerged during the 1990s and was built upon three pillars: maximizing shareholder value based on a strategy that provided benchmarks for financial returns, maximizing bookable reserves and minimizing costs partly based on outsourcing.
