Now that BP Plc (BP/) has partnered with Russia’s Vladimir Putin to oversee the world’s second-biggest oil industry, other international energy companies such as Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM) and Royal Dutch Shell Plc (RDSA) are facing dwindling access to one of the last untapped troves of crude.

In an articled published today by The Sunday Times (Page 8 of Business Section), Danny Fortson has revealed that according to senior bankers, Exxon Mobil and Shell are both considering opportunistic bids for BP.
The two thirds of a page article is published under the headline “Is the sun setting on BP?” and argues that BP is “vulnerable” as a result of a downsizing policy by BP’s Chief Executive.
Danny Fortson warns: “Bod Dudley may be playing a dangerous game. Shrinking the oil giant will make it more attractive to rivals…” read more

Dr Shamil Yenikeyeff analyses the reasons for the collapse of BPs Arctic partnership with the Russian state company Rosneft. He argues that the BPRosneft deal was inauspicious even before it was signed due to the history of the Kremlins reluctance to back BP plc in its often uneasy relations with the AAR consortium BPs Russian partners in the TNKBP joint venture. Dr Yenikeyeff analyses the motives of the key players involved and looks at the possible future of BPs involvement in Russia. read more

PETROLEUM ECONOMIST
A new book tells the story of the oil industry’s boom-bust cycle through the personalities of its main protagonists. It isn’t always a flattering portrait, writes Derek Brower
The book is especially strong on such juicy details, not least when it describes the machinations rivalries, personality clashes and egos at work during the mega-merger period of the late 1990s. Browne’s successor, Tony Hayward, is seen entertaining Gazprom boss Alexei Miller at a Chelsea football match in London. Shell’s former chief, Jeroen van der Veer, argues in German, without interpreters, with Russia’s then president Vladimir Putin about the Sakhalin Energy project at a private function in Holland. And so on. read more
