Mergers and acquisitions are the hottest theme in the oil industry today. British oil giant BP is looking at an acquisition too, the company revealed on Tuesday after reporting first quarter earnings. Asked by an analyst on the earnings call whether it would join peers in adding more oil capacity, BP CEO Murray Auchincloss said that the company wasn’t planning to go in that direction.
BP softened the language on its pledge to cut its 2030 oil and gas output in an effort to reassure investors over its energy transition strategy and narrow a gaping value gap with rivals. CEO Murray Auchincloss has in recent months pivoted the London-based firm's strategy to focus heavily on returns. BP's shares today lag rivals Shell, TotalEnergies, Exxon Mobil and Chevron, based on a number of key metrics, reflecting concerns BP is not investing in the most profitable segments of its business, primarily oil and gas.
Lower realizations of commodity prices hurt BP's earnings in Q1.
