In a speech today, BP CEO Robert Dudley warned London's business leaders that an upcoming report and documentary [1] from ProPublica and PBS FRONTLINE would paint an unflattering picture of the company’s safety record. He defended BP’s record on safety but said the company would continue to work to improve.
Speaking at an annual British business conference [2], Dudley said:
“The company had changed very significantly after the events of Texas City in 2005 [3]. So I do not believe that BP is an unsafe company. There will be some documentaries run, I think tomorrow night in the US, that paints that picture of the company.”
