bp (formerly British Petroleum) is a UK-based integrated energy company with global operations across upstream oil and gas, refining, fuels marketing and lubricants, and energy trading. Its downstream businesses produce and distribute transportation fuels and supply hydrocarbon intermediates such as naphtha, LPG, and hydrogen that serve as feedstocks for petrochemical manufacturing. bp was historically a major producer of aromatics and acetyls but sold those petrochemicals businesses in 2020, and today focuses its chemicals-related activities around refining-linked feedstocks and lubricants.
