However improbable or even absurd it was for the world's second-largest oil company to adopt "Beyond Petroleum" as a slogan (Fortune cast a skeptical eye at the effort in 2002) to a large extent, the strategy worked. Last year alone, BP was named the Financial Times "most respected energy company" and Fortune's "most admired company in Britain." Business Week ranked it the second-greenest company of the decade (after du Pont). "They have nailed their colors very firmly to the environmental mast," Patrick Barrow, managing director of the Public Relations Consultants Association, told Fortune last year. Those colors are fading fast.Fri, 11 Aug 2006 20:34:00 EDThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/08/10/markets/oil/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/08/10/markets/oil/index.htmThe price of crude oil plummeted $2.35 settling at $74.00 a barrel on the NYMEX Thursday, matching its second largest price drop of the year, but oil analysts were divided on whether the market was responding to news of a thwarted terror plot targeting trans-Atlantic flights.Thu, 10 Aug 2006 22:56:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2006/US/08/10/oilfield.shutdown/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/US/08/10/oilfield.shutdown/index.htmlOil slipped more than $1 to below $76 a barrel on Thursday after Britain said it had thwarted a plot to blow up an aircraft in trans-Atlantic flight, triggering falls in stock markets and a rise in safe haven bonds.Thu, 10 Aug 2006 16:04:00 EDThttp://www.cnn.com/2006/US/08/09/alaska.bp/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2006/US/08/09/alaska.bp/index.htmlBP America may know by this weekend whether it can keep the western half of Alaska's Prudhoe Bay oil field in production while it replaces corroded pipes in the eastern half.Thu, 10 Aug 2006 00:31:00 EDThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/08/09/news/economy/bp_malone/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/08/09/news/economy/bp_malone/index.htmA BP executive, under fire over the Alaska pipeline closure, defended the company's response to a two-year-old memo sent to BP's board detailing widespread corrosion, safety issues and other problems at the company's Prudhoe Bay oil field.Wed, 09 Aug 2006 19:32:00 EDThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/08/09/markets/oil_eia/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/08/09/markets/oil_eia/index.htmOil prices, rallying earlier in the session, ended the day little changed despite a government report showing supplies of crude oil, gasoline and distillates falling more than expected.Wed, 09 Aug 2006 14:04:00 EDThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/08/09/commentary/streetlife.fortune/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/08/09/commentary/streetlife.fortune/index.htmMmmm, hmmm!
