BP
Our industry is changing at a pace not seen in decades. Oil, gas and renewables are becoming more abundant and less costly.
Through new technologies, energy will be produced more efficiently and in new ways, helping to meet the expected rise in demand. And the world is working towards a lower carbon future. Our strategy allows us to be competitive in a time when prices, policy, technology and customer preferences are evolving.
We believe having a balanced portfolio with advantaged oil and gas, competitive downstream and low carbon activities, as well as a dynamic investment strategy give us resilience.
With the experience we have, the portfolio we have created and the flexibility of our strategy, we can embrace the energy transition in a way that enhances our investor proposition, while meeting the need for energy today.

AKT II
At AKT II we firmly believe that good design need not cost the earth. We also know that if left unmanaged, design aspirations can stretch budgets beyond breaking point.

We have a long and established track record of delivering complex projects within budget and to programme, and this is something that we monitor vigorously during all stages of the project. Our collaborative approach and willingness to work with and for contractors underscores this as demonstrated at the Dalston Square and Renaissance developments for Barratt Homes and in the London Athletes’ Village for Lend Lease.
Our experience is extensive, covering the commercial, residential, retail, leisure, educational, health and transportation sectors of the market. Projects range from large new-build developments to complicated refurbishments of listed buildings, with contract values ranging from £ 100,000 to over £ 750 million.
