Our strategy builds on bp’s distinct strengths and competitive advantages as an integrated energy company bp is pursuing its strategy to become an integrated energy company delivering solutions to customers

4Q 2024 results

bp’s operating cash flow for 2024 was $27.3 billion, we raised the dividend by 10% and delivered $7 billion in share buybacks – and we have announced a further $1.75 billion in buybacks

In 2024 we laid the foundations for growth. We have been reshaping our portfolio - sanctioning new major projects, and focusing our low-carbon investment - and we have made strong progress in reducing costs. Building on the actions taken in the last 12 months, we now plan to fundamentally reset our strategy and drive further improvements in performance, all in service of growing cash flow and returns. It will be a new direction for bp and we look forward to sharing it at our Capital Markets Update on 26 February.
