bp is carrying out a strategic review of its Castrol business with the intention of accelerating Castrol’s next phase of value delivery.
Castrol is a leading and trusted global lubricants brand, marketing premium products in more than 150 countries and serving customers and consumers in the automotive, marine, industrial and energy sectors. Castrol has significant growth ambitions, including growing its core mobility businesses, expanding participation in industrial lubricants, enhancing its mobility services and diversifying into data centre fluids.
The strategic review of Castrol will consider all options with a focus on value creation. Proceeds from any potential transaction that may arise as a result of the review will be allocated to strengthening bp’s balance sheet.
