A general view of the BP logo and petrol station forecourt sign on January 22, 2024 in Southend, United Kingdom. British oil major BP on Thursday trimmed its executive team down to 10 members and announced William Lin as the new head of the firm's oil and low carbon energy business. BP said it was simplifying its organizational structure to help "grow the value" of the business. "These changes will help us do just that, reducing complexity within bp, allowing our team to focus on delivering our priorities and growing the value of bp," he added. The energy major said the financial reporting structure of the firm remains unchanged and that it will continue to have three businesses: production and operations, gas and low carbon energy and customers and products — enabled by trading and shipping.
