Subsidiaries

BP PLC, registered in England at Britannic House, 1 Finsbury Circus, London, is the overall BP holding company.

First order subsidiaries of BP PLC include many national and regional divisions of BP such as:

  • BP (Indian agencies) Ltd.
  • BP Africa Ltd.
  • BP China Ltd.
(all registered in England)

The most notable first order subsidiary remains BP International Ltd (registered in England). Below the BP international umbrella lie many further subsidiaries such as:

  • BP America holdings Ltd. (registered in England)
  • BP America Inc. (registered in USA)
  • BP Chemicals (International) Ltd. (registered in England)

Exploration and production (Ex-Pro.) is mostly divided into national subsidiaries under the BP Exploration Operating Co. Ltd, Ex-Pro. Subsidiaries include, for example:

  • BP Exploration (Angola) Ltd.
  • BP Exploration (Caspian Sea) Ltd.

Most BP subsidiaries can be recognised by the BP or Amoco name although others include The Standard Oil Co. Inc. and more obscure examples such as Grangemouth Polypropylene Ltd. Wholly owned UK subsidiaries are suffixed by the letters Ltd. (Limited Liability Company) and most US subsidiaries by the letters Inc. (Incorporated). A full list of subsidiaries can be found in 'Who Owns Whom' (vol.1 - UK & Ireland) available in the UK at most major libraries.

Structure/Ownership

BP Group is the top level of the company hierarchy. For organisational purposes the Group is divided into 4 divisions:

  • Exploration & production
  • Oil
  • Chemicals
  • Gas & Power
(see divisional chief executives above)

Figures for production volumes and financial performance are reported separately for each division in BPs quarterly Financial and Operating Information. Most senior figures within BP Group including John Browne himself have made their way up through exploration and production, and despite BPs re-branding as an environmentally aware energy company it is this division which continues to drive the direction of the group.
