Oklahoma BP’s economic investment BPX Energy is a leading producer of so-called tight gas — gas found in extremely dense rock formations — in Oklahoma’s Arkoma, Woodford and Anadarko basins. It operates around 1,300 wells in eastern and central Oklahoma (Arkoma and Woodford basins), along with roughly 200 wells in western Oklahoma (Anadarko Basin). In addition, BPX Energy has a key regional office in Oklahoma City. Oklahoma also serves as a hub for BP’s U.S. Pipelines and Logistics business (USPL), which moves and stores energy resources across America. Every day, USPL manages more than 3,200 miles of pipelines carrying 1.1 million barrels of crude oil, natural gas liquids and refined products. It also has an ownership stake in close to 1,500 miles of additional pipelines. Meanwhile, the business maintains 72 above-ground storage tanks with a combined capacity of about 5.3 million barrels. USPL’s largest control center is in Tulsa, where dozens of BP employees support the operation of more than 2,800 miles of pipeline. The Tulsa facility uses satellite communications and other innovative technologies — including a state-of-the-art leak detection system and an industry-leading damage prevention program — to make BP’s pipeline operations run safely and efficiently. In fact, USPL received the American Petroleum Institute Pipeline Occupational Safety Performance Award for large operators in 2016. Beyond its business operations in Oklahoma, BP has made significant contributions to local community initiatives. For example, between 2013 and 2017, it donated more than $1.9 million to science, technology, engineering and math education programs in Oklahoma. * BP employees and retail station figures as of June 30, 2018.

Petroleum-Gas University of Ploiesti Vol. LXII Economic Sciences 103-110 BULLETIN No. 4/2010 Series LUKOIL’s Market Strategy in Central and Eastern Europe Mihaela Oprea Ciopi Petroleum-Gas University of Ploieşti, Bd. Bucureşti 39, Ploieşti, Romania e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The economic environment has undergone significant development over the past 20 years marked, in particular, by the globalization of the economy and increased competitiveness. The large oil corporations significantly influence national economies and the global economy in general, as a result of their huge financial power and their profit-oriented corporate management, by identifying the most appropriate strategies and the most effective methods of business management . Currently, oil market in Central and Eastern Europe is controlled by three major players: the Austrian OMV, Hungarian MOL company and the Russian company LUKOIL, whose investment strategies and policies contributed to a decisive extent to the development and consolidation of oil industry in the countries in this area, thus in Romania too. In this context, the paper aims to analyze the strategy of developing and consolidating LUKOIL’s position on this market. Key words: strategic alliance, a global energy player, offensive strategy, territorial expansion JEL Classification: M10 Introduction The greatest oil corporations significantly influence national economies and the global economy in general, the effect of their huge financial power and corporate management oriented to increase profit by identifying the most appropriate strategies and the most effective methods of business management. These elements underpin the development of management as a science and was later taken over and adapted by national companies.
