BP PLC (BP.LN) on Thursday said that Bernard Looney, the chief
executive of its upstream business, has sold around 2 million
pounds ($2.6 million) worth of shares.
The British oil giant said Mr. Looney sold 347,630 shares at
559.60 pence each.
On Tuesday, BP posted an 8.8% fall in first-quarter underlying
replacement cost profit--a figure that is similar to the net profit
figure U.S. oil companies use and which strips out one-off items.
However, at $2.4 billion, the profit figure still beat a
company-compiled consensus of $2.3 billion.
