Profit after taxation slumped to $206 million in the three months to September, after a net profit of $4.9 billion in the same period in 2023, BP said in a results statement.
The company’s underlying replacement cost profit excluding exceptional items — a measure of operating earnings — came in at $2.3 billion, down more than $1 billion from a year earlier.
Total revenue dropped around 11 percent to $48.3 billion. Energy majors are also feeling the impact of declining gas prices, which have fallen heavily since soaring after the invasion of Ukraine by major energy producer Russia in early 2022.
“In oil and gas, we see the potential to grow through the decade with a focus on value over volume,” chief executive Murray Auchincloss said in an earnings statement.
Looking to the fourth quarter, the company said it expects to report lower upstream production, lower volumes and for refining margins to remain low.
