BP ( (BP) ) has shared an announcement.

In its financial report for the fourth quarter and full year 2024, BP reported a series of strategic developments and financial outcomes aimed at enhancing future growth. Despite a reported loss of $1.959 billion in the fourth quarter, largely due to weaker refining margins and higher tax rates, BP focused on high-grading its portfolio, with significant steps including forming an offshore wind joint venture with JERA Co., Inc, and divesting non-core assets. The company also took final investment decisions on ten major projects and announced a dividend per ordinary share of 8 cents, alongside a $1.75 billion share buyback. These developments indicate BP’s ongoing efforts to reshape its business model, focusing on low-carbon investments and operational efficiency to drive long-term growth.
