Key facts about BP global operations • BP is one of the world’s largest energy companies, providing its customers with fuel for transportation, energy for heat and light, retail services and petrochemicals products for everyday items. The BP Group operates across six continents, in over 100 countries and employs around 80,000 people. • BP began operating over 100 years ago, and since then has operated at the frontiers of the energy industry, investing in the development of various pioneering technologies and developping better ways of generating
energy. Initially called the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, it made its first oil discovery in Persia in 1908. Over the course of its history, the company has made significant discoveries and been involved in major mergers and acquisitions, growing from a local oil company into a global energy group. • BP is a leading global player in oil and gas exploration, development and production. In 2010, it produced 3.8 million barrels of oil equivalent per day as operator. • BP is a global biofuels supplier, through its dedicated business unit BP Biofuels. It was the first oil company to invest in sugarcane ethanol production in Brazil. • Every year, Air BP delivers more than 26 million tonnes of fuels and lubricants to over 600 airports in approximately 50 countries across the world. • Castrol is one of the BP Group’s most important companies in the lubricants sector. In addition to its famous products for cars and motorcycles, Castrol supplies lubricants for heavy transportation, refrigeration, steelmaking and marine applications, as well as industry in general.
Brazil and BP BP has been active in the Brazilian energy sector for more than half a century, since Castrol built a lubricants plant in Rio de Janeiro in 1957. The Castrol line of lubricants now features products for the automotive, motorcycle, marine and industrial sectors. For the industrial market, Castrol supplies a large variety of oils, greases and cutting fluids. It provides specific lubricants for the shipping industry and produces highquality fluids for the growing offshore oil and gas market. For the automotive market, it supplies advanced, high-performance products for vehicle engines powered by gasoline, ethanol, diesel and natural gas. During the 1970s and 1980s, BP conducted exploration activities in the country, acquiring seismic data in the Santos, Amazonas and Paraná basins and drilling four wells in Santos Basin. Between 1999 and 2005, BP operated two deepwater blocks in Foz do Amazonas
Basin (BFZ-2 and BMFZA-1), drilling three wells around 500 km to the north of Belém, Pará. BP is present in the aviation fuel sector through Air BP. In 2002, it began operating at five small airports in the states of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. In 2004, it expanded to 13 airports in five states and the Federal District, supplying commercial, military and general aviation customers. In 2008, BP became the first oil company to invest in the Brazilian sugarcane ethanol industry when it invested in a 50% stake in Tropical BioEnergia S.A., a joint venture with LDC Bioenergia and Brasil Ecodiesel. In 2010 Butamax Advanced Biofuels (a joint venture between BP and DuPont) inaugurated the first laboratory in Latin America devoted exclusively to the development of biobutanol, located in Paulínia (São Paulo). In 2011, BP has agreed to pay approximately US$680 million to acquire 83 per cent of the shares of the Brazilian ethanol producer Companhia Nacional de Açúcar e Álcool (CNAA). BP will become the operator of two ethanol mills, located in Goiás and Minas Gerais states.

When it starts operations in new areas or carries out acquisitions, BP conducts thorough studies to create projects that are suited to local realities and people’s needs. These evaluations examine both the positive and negative impacts that may be generated by operations. Accordingly, BP’s projects look to reinforce the positive aspects and minimize the negative ones. One of BP’s objectives is to invest in sustainable projects that will thrive independently of its operations in the region.
