BP holdings spark campaign bickering - JSOnline - 0 views

  •  
    "The campaigns of U.S. Senate candidates Russ Feingold and Ron Johnson sparred Friday over ownership of stock in BP, the British company behind the Gulf Coast oil spill. Johnson reported owning individual BP stock valued at $116,000 to $315,000. Feingold, the Johnson campaign noted, is a member of the Wisconsin Retirement System, which has invested in BP. The fuel was a financial disclosure report Johnson filed with the Senate and tax returns he voluntarily made public - reports that confirmed Johnson's personal wealth and also highlighted his history of major charitable donations. The Republican business executive from Oshkosh has reported taxable income averaging about $1 million a year for the past five years and $400,000 in charitable donations he deducted on his taxes. Johnson owns millions in stock, while Feingold, the Democrat seeking a fourth term, has just one mutual fund valued at $50,000 to $100,000. Johnson listed 153 stock and bond holdings, including 19 valued at more than $100,000. Johnson last month was critical of President Barack Obama's move to pressure BP into setting up a claims fund for victims of the spill. The company already has paid out millions of dollars from that fund. Johnson said BP acted negligently but argued that Obama should have let the courts decide on damages. Aides to Johnson said he had no plans to sell the stock and shouldn't be criticized for owning such a popular and common stock. "The spill in the Gulf is an economic and economic disaster, and Ron is just as angry about that as anybody else," Johnson campaign manager Juston Johnson said. He said Ron Johnson thought it was inappropriate to focus first on BP's negligence before the spill was capped and a cleanup was under way. Feingold aides said it wasn't fair to compare Johnson's ownership of BP stock to Feingold's retirement account, which is directed by the state investment board on behalf of government employees. Feingold was a state legislator before his electi

BP Holdings Barcelona - Bly Report: recommendation to reality - WIKIA - 0 views

    http://bp-holdings-barcelona-madrid-spain.wikia.com/wiki/BP_Holdings_Barcelona_-_Bly_Report:_recommendation_to_reality Immediately after the Deepwater Horizon accident in the Gulf of Mexico, BP asked its most senior safety professional, Mark Bly, to lead an investigation relating to the causes of the incident and make recommendations to help prevent such accidents from occurring. The investigation led to 26 recommendations for reducing risk in BP's drilling operations. Since the report's publication in 2010, BP has made a significant progress in implementing those 26 recommendations. BP Magazine finds out more In September 2010, four months after the Deepwater Horizon accident in the Gulf of Mexico, BP released its Deepwater Horizon Accident Investigation Report, known as the Bly Report, concluding that the accident resulted from a complex, interlinked series of failures involving multiple parties. The report was the work of an investigation team led by BP's head of safety and operations, Mark Bly, and consisted of more than 50 technical and other specialists, drawn not only from BP but also the wider energy industry. The team made 26 recommendations specific to drilling, aimed at further reducing risk. Accepting all of these recommendations, BP committed to their implementation across its worldwide drilling operations and the recommendations are now in the process of being implemented into the well designs by engineers and operations personnel. That implementation is overseen by the global wells organisation (GWO), established by BP in April 2011 to facilitate a stronger, centralised and standardised approach to all BP-operated wells activity. "Our mission is to deliver safe, compliant and reliable wells for BP," says Richard Lynch, head of GWO. "We have to be very clear about the work we are doing and the risks involved, and have plans in place to manage those risks. "Successfully delivering the report's recommendations will standardise th

Sustainability Investors Reconsider BP Holdings in Wake of Gulf Disaster - 0 views

  •  
    "With BP's reputation as a leading sustainable company destroyed, investors weigh alternatives of divestment or increased engagement. SocialFunds.com -- The implications of the disastrous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico are many. As the stock price of BP, the oil and gas company responsible for the disaster, plummets-as of this writing, it has lost more than a third of its value since the explosion that killed 11 workers- and its very survival as a company seems threatened, one such implication is the materiality of environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) issues. On Wednesday, FairPensions, the UK-based organization whose mission is to promote sustainability investment in the pensions and investment industry, issued a press release which stated, "The need for responsible ownership has been underlined by the financial crisis and by the latest in a list of avoidable BP crises." However, FairPensions continued, "recognition of the financial risks of 'extra-financial issues' is usually not matched by practice on the part of pension funds and their fund managers." Safety violations by BP have become almost a commonplace in recent years, even before the Gulf disaster. In 2005, an explosion at the company's Texas City Refinery in Texas killed 15 workers and injured more than 170. In 2009, the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) imposed a fine of $87.4 million, the largest ever by the agency, on the company for failing to correct safety hazards in Texas City. In 2006, 200,000 gallons of oil spilled at Prudhoe Bay on the North Slope in Alaska, leading to payment by the company of $20 million in fines and restitution. Yet somehow, despite its record of safety violations, BP was considered a leading sustainable company, at least until the Gulf oil spill. In 2008, Fortu ne magazine ranked BP among the top ten most accountable big companies, citing the company's investments in renewable energy and its creation,

BP Capital Management, bp holdings sweden - design21sdn - 0 views

    This post is being written as part of HedgeFundBlogger.com's Investment Securities Tool which analyzes the holdings of hedge fund managers. With all the commotion surrounding energy these days, it never hurts to track an energy focused hedge fund ran by none other than T. Boone Pickens. If you are unfamiliar with Pickens, he is an energy maverick and his fund returned 300% in 2005. He is a big advocate of Peak Oil Theory and runs an energy-centric hedge fund based in Dallas, Texas. Although he typically holds numerous positions in oil, he is also big on alternative energy (except ethanol) and has numerous holdings there as well. He most recently advocated a large natural gas position and has additionally made a big bet on wind energy. So, now that we've got a little background on Boone and BP Capital, let's see what they were up to. The following are BP Capital's current holdings as of June 30th 2008, as released in their most recent 13F filing with the SEC. The positions in this most recent 13F were compared to last quarter's 13F and here are the changes made to their portfolio: New Positions: BPZ Resources (BZP): 350,000 shares. This position is 0.48% of BP's portfolio. EOG Resources (EOG): 322,266 shares. This position is 1.9% of BP's portfolio. Tenaris (TS): 1,106,394 shares. This position is 3.88% of BP's portfolio. Devon Energy (DVN): 845,946 shares. This position is 4.79% of BP's portfolio. Chesapeake Energy (CHK): 1,838,129 shares. This position is 5.7% of BP's portfolio.

Barcelona 2012 - Event Report - Men's 10,000m Final - 0 views

  •  
    Ethiopia's Yigrem Demelash brought the Kenyan dominance at the event to a halt today to grab the gold medal in style in a career best of 28:16.07. The Kenyan pair of Geoffrey Kipkorir Kirui and Philemon Kipchilis Cheboi had been hotly tipped as the main favourites but Demelash proved to be a master tactician and his arch-rivals Kenyans had to settle for the minor places on the podium on this occasion. The race opened quite conservatively as the lonesome early leader China's Binlu Wang went through the opening 1000m in 2:55.54 and a full 10-second margin over the rest of the 34 competitors. The Kenyan pair injected a lethal pace some 1500m into the race and only the Ethiopian duo and Uganda's Moses Martin Kurong were able to live with their pace. Kirui, who holds an impressive 26:55.73 to rank second on the all-time Junior lists, opened full gas after the second kilometre and an impressive 8:15 split for the following three kilometres led him lonesome at the front. Even before the halfway, Kirui began to lap the slowest contenders. The 5000m was reached in 14:14 with Kirui still leading but shortly after the sixth kilometre the Kenyan began to falter a bit to be caught by Cheboi and Demelash. It was Cheboi who took charge of the race then with respective splits of 2:48 for the seventh and eighth km; surprisingly, that kind of pace proved to be enough to leave Kirui behind while Demelash stayed comfortably at Cheboi's shoulder. The decisive moment came some three laps home when Cheboi was unable to maintain his own pace and was effortlessly passed by Demelash, who covered the penultimate 1000m section in 2:51.41. There were no remarkable changes in the closing laps with Demelash ruling at the bell some 40m ahead of Cheboi, himself another 30m clear of Kirui. In addition to Demelash PB of 28:16.07 Cheboi also produced a career best of 28:23.98 in second for Kirui's 28:30.47 in third. Demelash, who lapped every athlete from sixth onwards, is not entere
