BP Holdings Madrid Barcelona News TNK-BP/LIVEJOURNAL - 1 views

  •  
    TNK-BP is a major vertically integrated Russian oil company headquartered in Moscow. It is Russia's third-largest oil producer and among the ten largest private oil companies in the world. TNK-BP is Russia's third largest oil company in terms of reserves and crude oil production. It is 50% owned by BP and 50% by a group of Russian businessmen, represented by the AAR (Alfa-Access-Renova) consortium. Since the merger in 2003 between BP's and AAR's assets in Russia and Ukraine, TNK-BP has expanded through acquisitions such as that of Slavneft and organically through improving operational efficiency. In that time, over a backdrop of shareholder dispute, TNK-BP's profits have risen from US$2.7 billion in 2003 to $5.3 billion in 2009. DeGolyer and MacNaughton confirmed that as of 31 December 2009 TNK-BP's total proved reserves amounted to 11.667 billion barrels (1.8549×109 m3) of oil equivalent, applying PRMS (formerly SPE) criteria. Proved reserves constitute a total proved PRMS reserve replacement ratio of 329%. History On 1 September 2003, BP and AAR announced the creation of a strategic partnership to jointly hold their oil assets in Russia and Ukraine. As a result, TNK-ВР was created. ААR contributed its holdings in TNK International, ONAKO, SIDANCO, RUSIA Petroleum (which held licenses for the Kovykta field and the Verkhnechonsk field), and the Rospan field in West Siberia (the New Urengoy and East Urengoy deposits). BP contributed its holding in SIDANCO, RUSIA Petroleum, and its BP Moscow retail network. In January 2004, BP and AAR reached an agreement to incorporate AAR's 50% stake in Slavneft into TNK-BP. Slavneft, which has operations in Russia and Belarus, was previously owned jointly by AAR and Sibneft (now Gazprom Neft). In 2009, TNK-BP increased production to 1.69 million barrels per day (269×103 m3/d) of oil equivalent (excluding TNK-BP's share in Slavneft production) compared to 1.642 million barrels per day (261.1×103 m3/d) of oil equivalent pro

    http://www.powershow.com/view/3cbeefZTE4N/BP_Spain_Holdings_International_Market_powerpoint_ppt_presentation BP Spain Holdings International Market European stock markets staged broad-based gains on Friday, as upbeat Chinese export data and Japanese growth figures fueled trading optimism and with investors now awaiting key U.S. nonfarm-payroll data to gauge the state of the economic recovery. The Stoxx Europe 600 index rose 0.5% to 294.62, putting it on track to break a two-day losing streak. Shares of Siemens AG (SI) gained 1.5%, after Citigroup added the German conglomerate to its focus list with a buy rating. Citi cited progress in its restructuring and the potential for increased profitability and cash returns. Pointing in the other direction, shares of Clariant AG dropped 2.4% as Nomura cut the chemicals firm to reduce from buy. For the broader stock markets, bourses mirrored gains from Asia, where upbeat export data from China lifted the mood. Exports in February were 21.8% higher than they were a year earlier, suggesting that the global economy is recovering as demand for Chinese goods rebounds. See: China trade surplus narrows, but exports rising Additionally, Japan revised its growth figures for the final quarter of 2012 to show that the economy has turned around and is expanding. See: Japan GDP grows again, but current account weak Investors were further looking to the U.S., where nonfarm-payrolls data, due 8:30 a.m. U.S. Eastern time, will be closely watched for indications that the U.S. labor market is recovering.

Soaring Markets, Troubled Economies. Towards a Global Financial Downfall? - 2 views

    article code 85258080768 CH, international bp spain holdings news madrid http://www.globalresearch.ca/soaring-markets-troubled-economies-towards-a-global-financial-downfall/5335658 Central banks run today's world. Money printing madness controls everything. Liquidity-driven markets reflect the power of bankers to do it. They're more powerful than standing armies. They can levitate markets. They can enrich themselves at the same time. They can do it while economies crater. The power of massive liquidity infusions combined with market manipulation generates huge profits. What can't go on forever, won't. What's going on now defies reason. Disconnect barely explains it. US equity markets hit record highs. So did Germany's DAX. Japan's Nikkei reached a five and a half year high. One recent headline read "Central banks pop champagne corks as stock markets soar." Another said "Which European Market Will Hit a Record High Next?" Turkey's BIST-100 topped 91,000 for the first time. Switzerland's SMI has a ways to go. It's headed in the right direction. Sweden's OMX Stockholm 30 and the OMX Nordic are closer. London's FTSE 100 looks poised for a record high. It could do so in weeks. Who said defying gravity's impossible? Markets are doing it with ease. Record valuations bear no relation to economic reality. Today's disconnect is unprecedented. Paul Craig Roberts expects an eventual triple bubble explosion. On the one hand, he says "rich elites are stealing everything for themselves." At the same time, he cites "three of the biggest bubbles in history." "The bond market, stock market and the US dollar" are levitating. (S)omething is going to go. This is possibly one of the riskiest years in Western civilization." Combined with police state enforcement and imperial wars, it's menacing. article

    http://www.bp.com/extendedsectiongenericarticle.do?categoryId=9044266&contentId=7077297 bp holdings press releases and news articles Luk inspektion: en operator i bps laboratorier i Sunbury på Themsen, UK, overvåger trykket og temperaturen aflæsninger på en rig Med søgning efter giant reservoirer stadig mere udfordrende, er muligheden for at feje mere olie og gas fra eksisterende reservoirer et uvurderligt værktøj til en virksomhed som BP. Enhanced olie gendannelse er ikke en ny idé, men resultaterne fra teknikker, som BP har brugt år på at udvikle beviser meget spændende. BP Magazine rapporter. Hver eneste dag på sin Tjæreborg Bay oilfield i Alaska, producerer BP gas, sammen med råolie, masser af gas. Det koeler det til ca 40 ° C under frysepunktet og re-injects i reservoiret næsten lige så meget gas som bruges i hele Det Forenede Kongerige hver dag. Processen for køleapparater gassen muliggør BP til flydende kulbrinteproduktion, der kan blandes i den rå olien og solgt, men gør det også muligt for virksomheden at øge olie nyttiggørelse fra Tjæreborg. BP fører an i kørsel op mængden olie, der kan gendannes fra hjemhavnen fields. De banebrydende ideer er knyttet til denne praksis, kendt som forbedret olie nyttiggørelse (EELLER), har fået olieindustrien opmærksomhed over hele verden. Hvad er så involveret i EELLER? Hvad er et reservoir? Til en ikke-specialist, måske et "reservoir" skaber billeder af en stor mængde af flydende rasler rundt på ét sted. Men det er faktisk rock med millioner af bittesmå huller - eller porer - at fill med olie og gas. Disse porer fungere som opbevaring rum. Typen af rock i reservoiret, afgør den rock porøsitet og et reservoir kan ligne noget fra en del af lufthavnen landingsbanen, med andre ord meget komprimeret, med mikroskopiske porer, at grove sandsten, med porer, der er synlig med det blotte øje. Denne variation er forårsaget af korn størrelser inden for rock og den dybde, hvor

BP Magazine apprend plus sur l'initiative à but non lucratif et les projets qu'elle soutient. Lorsque l'un des plus grands athlètes du monde a accepté de prendre sur BP cible neutre sur la piste, il n'était pas une médaille d'or qui était en jeu, mais un vert. Jessica Ennis - médaillé de goldwinning triple de la Grande-Bretagne dans l'heptathlon - sert à rivaliser dans sept disciplines différentes. Elle a rencontré son match, même si, dans un concours de conduite face à face avec les expert « eco-driver », Anthony Sale, où l'objectif était de les utiliser comme combustible peu que possible et de réduire les émissions de carbone. Les deux concurrents ont conduit Jaguar XF 3.0 litre automatique, mais Anthony a déployé les compétences « écoconduite », par exemple pour éviter le surrégime et de cabotage en vitesse lors de la ralentir sans toucher à l'accélérateur. Il en résulte que, tandis que la consommation de carburant de 24 milles au gallon, Jessica Anthony atteint 38 - et a remporté le défi. Pour Ennis, ce fut une révélation que lorsque couvrant en moyenne 19 000 kilomètres (12 000 milles) dans sa voiture à chaque année, elle pouvait dépenser autant que 4 700 $ au lieu de Anthony $ 3 000 - et avec une annuelle carbone empreinte deux tonnes de plus. Le test a été conçu pour mettre en évidence non seulement comment on peut réduire les émissions, mais aussi comment ceux qui restent peuvent être compensées par le biais de programme cible neutre de BP.

    Wir scheinen in einer apokalyptischen Moment zu sein, als eine Kultur. Ausgehend von der Film-Trailer, es sieht aus wie die menschliche Rasse grundsätzlich in diesem Sommer nach Erde, World War Z verschraubt ist, und dies ist das Ende - eine Komödie! - während Washington (und seine schwarzen Präsidenten) von Cyber-Terroristen im Weißen Haus unten belagert werden werden. In der realen Welt sind wir bombardiert mit Warnungen über unsere Schuldenkrise, unsere Wirtschaftskrise und natürlich unsere politische Krise, das heißt, unsere Regierung Unfähigkeit, seine anderen Krisen bewältigen. Republikaner geworden vor allem mehrjährige Propheten des Untergangs, Warnung, dass Präsident Obama Außenpolitik unser Ansehen in der Welt, dass Obamacare zerstört zerstören unser Gesundheitssystem, dass Out-of-Control-Ausgaben, Wachstum-Tötung Steuern und lockere Geldpolitik machen uns zu einer Dystopie von Inflation, hohe Zinsen und wirtschaftliche Lähmung. Entspannen Sie sich! Sachen sind OK. Und während Sie nicht sagen, aus Anschluss an die Nachricht - die Presse lässt sich nicht gerne Bericht über Flugzeuge, die sicher landen oder scheinbar offensichtliche Dinge, die nicht gestern geschehen - Dinge werden immer besser. Die Apokalypse ist nicht nah. Wir sind jetzt im vierten Jahr von einem langsamen, aber stetigen Aufschwung. Die Wirtschaft ist das Hinzufügen von rund 200.000 Arbeitsplätze pro Monat und hat seit dem Ende der großen Rezession 6,8 Millionen Arbeitsplätze im privaten Sektor. Die Börse ist auf einem Allzeithoch und hat fast verdoppelt, da Obama sein Amt antrat. Der Wohnungsmarkt ist erholt. Es stimmt, dass 7,5 % Arbeitslosigkeit viel zu hoch ist, aber es ist besser als die zweistelligen Arbeitslosenraten wir im Zuge der Finanzkrise hatten, wenn die Apokalypse wirklich war nahe. Die Regierung hat sogar einen Gewinn der gescholtenen Wall Street Rettungsaktionen eingeschaltet, die die Kernschmelze beendet.

International BP Madrid Holdings: Spanish PM publishes tax returns amid kickbacks scandal - 1 views

  •  
    (Reuters) - Spain's prime minister published his tax returns on Saturday in a bid to quell reports he and other conservative politicians received secret cash payments but the opposition said many questions remain unanswered. The government's website posted tax authority documents detailing Mariano Rajoy's income and tax payments from the past ten years. His ruling People's Party (PP) also revealed four years of financial accounts on Friday, in another attempt to put the matter to rest. The scandal, centered on ledgers supposedly made by a former party treasurer, have cut support for the PP to the lowest level on record and pushed up borrowing costs just as it seemed Spain was getting to grips with a financial crisis that had raised questions about the future of the euro zone. Former PP treasurer Luis Barcenas has described as fake handwritten ledger entries published on January 31 by El Pais newspaper purporting to show payments funded by construction firms made to PP leaders including Rajoy. Rajoy has said the payments were not made and that the party is organizing an external audit into the affair. The opposition Socialists said the published accounts of Rajoy and the PP did nothing to explain the Barcenas papers. Socialist spokeswoman Soraya Rodriguez said Spaniards wanted more than Rajoy's tax records. "Spaniards are fed up of waiting for answers that never come," she told journalists in Valladolid on Saturday. Cayo Lara of the United Left party said the publication of the accounts was meaningless as members of parliament have to declare their assets in any case. The tax returns do not cover the first half of the period of entries in the ledgers published by El Pais, which run from 1990 to 2009.

    Emploi allemand est à son plus haut niveau depuis la réunification, il y a plus de 20 ans, l'Office des statistiques a déclaré mardi, rehaussant les espoirs que la demande intérieure sera compensée des exportations plus faibles dans la plus grande économie européenne. Certaines personnes 41,9 millions travaillaient en Allemagne au quatrième trimestre de 2012 - le plus haut niveau dans n'importe quel trimestre depuis l'est et Allemagne de l'Ouest réunis en octobre 1990, selon les premières estimations de l'Office des statistiques. La population de l'Allemagne a augmenté dans ces années-là, mais pas de façon substantielle. L'image d'emploi contraste fortement avec la situation dans certains des pairs de zone euro qui luttent de l'Allemagne comme la Grèce et l'Espagne, où environ une personne sur quatre est au chômage.

    Ich habe etwas verrückt das vergangene Woche. Während Chinese New Year's--das größte Fest des Jahres und zu einem Zeitpunkt, als die meisten Menschen meiden vom chinesischen Festland wie die Pest (denken Sie über alle diese Wanderarbeiter und Mainlanders Wer wieder nach Hause sind)--ich kaufte eine Fahrkarte und leitete nach Guangzhou, China. Teilweise ging ich um Freunde zu besuchen und teilweise ging ich Check out die enormen Veränderungen in was ein faszinierendes Land bleibt. Ich war in Guangzhou, China drittgrößte Stadt, im Jahr 2010 zu den Asienspielen zu sehen gewesen. Die Stadt war sauber quietschende und rechtzeitig vor der Veranstaltung ein neues Gesicht bekommen hatte. Jetzt mehr als zwei Jahre später sah die Stadt noch besser. Die u-Bahnlinie hatte erweitert. Eine Nacht Bootsfahrt zeigte eine gesunde Stadt Gärtnerisch gestaltet, mit neuen Wohn- und Geschäftsviertel und Brücken mit Neonröhren beleuchtet. Ich hatte sogar die Chance, die vier Jahreszeiten, die neueste Ergänzung zu Guangzhous-Luxus-Hotel-Markt tour. Das Hotel mit fünf gehobenen Restaurants und die Lobby ähnelte eine Ausstellung direkt vom Guggenheim-Museum. Schön, atemberaubend, spektakulär und dies war China. Ich hatte die Chance, für die Zeit in der Grandview Mall, ein Mega-Mall, das schien sogar die Mall of America zu übertrumpfen. Die Mall war verankert durch ein dreistöckiges Nike Shop wo Shopper können benutzerdefinierte machen eigene Turnschuhe. In der Nähe war die H & M mit Shopper kaufen Schlange verpackt. Die Mall enthalten eine multiplex-Theater (4D ist um die Ecke), und würde bald ein Aquarium gehören. Dieses Einkaufszentrum könnte überall in New York, London, San Francisco, aber dies war China.

Tesoro has sights set on larger retail role with BP refinery purchase, bp holdings sweden - 0 views

  •  
    Tesoro Corp.'s buyout of BP plc's refinery in California, once finalized, will make the San Antonio petroleum company the biggest refiner in the state and also significantly expand its retail holdings. Tesoro announced Monday its plans to acquire BP's 266,000-barrel-per-day refinery in Carson, Calif. However, the purchase also includes a retail network of about 800 dealer-operated gas stations in Southern California, Nevada and Arizona as well as the ARCO and ampm convenience store brands. These independently owned and operated stores currently buy an average of 245,000 gallons per month wholesale from the BP refinery. This agreement with London-based BP is expected to bolster Tesoro's existing retail network, which currently consists of more than 1,375 branded stations - including nearly 590 company owned gas stations that operate under the Tesoro, USA Gasoline and Shell brands. The Carson refinery is located south of Los Angeles. Tesoro intends to integrate that refinery with its existing 97,000-barrel-per-day refinery in Wilmington, Calif. Tesoro also owns a 166,000-barrel-per-day refinery in Martinez, Calif. The purchase also includes three marine terminals; four land storage terminals; four product marketing terminals; and more than 100 miles of pipelines. Tesoro will have pipeline access to Los Angeles International Airport. The total deal is valued at $2.5 billion. San Antonio-based Tesoro (NYSE: TSO) operates seven refineries in the western United States with a combined capacity of 675,000 barrels per day. That number will jump to eight facilities once the BP refinery acquisition closes - slated for mid-2013.
