Back to Oil and Gas The company is refocusing on oil and gas operations, moving away from renewable energy projects. Meg O'Neill, former head of Woodside Energy, will become the first woman to lead a major global oil firm in April. She is expected to continue this strategy. Carol Howle, BP’s interim CEO, said O'Neill’s leadership will help make BP simpler, stronger, and more valuable. Ramped-Up Cost-Cutting BP now aims to save $5.5 billion–$6.5 billion by the end of 2027, up from the previous target of $5 billion. The company also sold a 65% stake in its Castrol business. Analysts praised BP’s decisive steps, including halting the buyback, selling non-core assets, and increasing structural cost savings. BP currently carries $22 billion in debt. Its fourth-quarter profits fell 30% to $1.54 billion, as Brent crude fell below $60 per barrel for the first time in over four years. Shareholders Question Strategy BP’s profits have now declined three years in a row, after peaking at $27.7 billion in 2022. Rival Shell also reported a 22% drop in annual earnings. Some shareholders are questioning BP’s renewed focus on oil and gas. Pension funds filed a resolution for the April AGM, asking whether upstream investments—exploration and extraction—will deliver the best returns. Critics note that upstream operations caused 75% of disposal losses and impairments since 2020. Leadership Challenges Previous CEO Murray Auchincloss stepped down after less than two years, replacing Bernard Looney, who was dismissed in 2023 over undisclosed workplace relationships. Cornelia Meyer, former BP executive, praised O'Neill’s record. “She’s an oil woman, not a renewables woman,” Meyer said. “If anyone can revive BP’s fortunes, she probably can.”

New Surveillance Footage Released The FBI has shared images of a masked individual in connection with the disappearance of news anchor Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy Guthrie. Authorities say the person was armed and may have tampered with Nancy’s home security camera. FBI Director Kash Patel said investigators recently recovered footage that had been inaccessible due to damaged or removed recording devices. The videos show the suspect approaching the front door, checking the camera, and covering it with vegetation. Family Urges Public Help Savannah Guthrie shared the footage on Instagram, appealing to anyone who might recognize the suspect. “We believe she is still out there,” Savannah said. “Bring her home.” This marks the first significant development in the case, which has drawn national attention since Nancy, 84, went missing from her Tucson, Arizona, home on January 31. Timeline and Evidence Authorities found that the home’s doorbell camera was disconnected at 1:47 a.m., with motion detected at 2:12 a.m. Around 2:28 a.m., Nancy’s pacemaker app lost connection. Blood found on her porch tested positive as hers. The FBI has also offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to her safe return. Ransom Notes and Investigations Officials are taking a recent ransom email seriously, which included a Monday deadline. Previous ransom demands were in Bitcoin, and one hoax note led to an arrest last week. Nancy’s family has said they are willing to pay for her safe return. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that President Donald Trump has reviewed the footage and urged anyone with information to contact authorities. Public Response The case has prompted widespread concern and social media appeals. Savannah continues to share updates, asking the public for help in identifying the suspect and ensuring her mother’s safety.
