Compared to the multi-billion dollar fines following the Deepwater Horizon spill, briefly negative oil futures prices and dividend cuts during the pandemic, the resignation is a surprise but perhaps not a major chapter in BP history.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;In addition, and with a temporary replacement now confirmed, BP will be hoping for markets to regard the situation as business as usual.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;There will, however, inevitably be uncertainty until such time as a permanent replacement is found and the company clarifies whether there will be any changes to its current strategy.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">BP shares have risen 5.5 per cent over the past year but at 506.1p today are trading up 160 per cent from their pandemic low at just below 200p.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\"><a style=\"font-weight: bold;\" class=\"class\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/investing.thisismoney.co.uk\/quote\/BP.\">&gt;
