History and Development

Founded in 1909 as the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, BP expanded throughout the twentieth century, developing major upstream and refining assets across Europe, North America, and the Middle East.

A transformative milestone was its merger with Amoco, strengthening its U.S. presence. The company later faced significant challenges following the Deepwater Horizon incident, which reshaped its financial and operational strategy.

In recent years, BP has increased investment in lower-carbon energy projects while maintaining its core oil and gas operations, positioning itself within the evolving global energy landscape.
