NeutralU.S News
- Meg O’Neill has been appointed as BP’s new chief executive, marking her as the first female leader of a major oil company and the first outsider to take on this role. Previously, she served as the CEO of Woodside, an Australian oil and gas company, for four years. This appointment comes during a challenging period for BP, which has seen significant leadership changes in recent years.
- O’Neill’s leadership is expected to signal a shift in BP’s strategy, particularly as the company faces pressure from climate activists and the broader energy transition. Her experience and outsider perspective may bring necessary changes to the company’s approach to energy production and sustainability.
