Technology and innovation
Our business is firmly underpinned by sound science and engineering, and is developing and applying advanced technology to help solve some of the world’s most challenging problems.
Technology helps us access the energy resources needed to provide future security of supply and it also helps us to minimize the environmental impact of energy production and consumption.
Innovation is one of BP’s core values. It’s so important to us that each year we operate an awards programme – the Helios Awards – to recognise individuals or teams that make a significant contribution to innovation.
BP describes itself as restless – we are never satisfied with the status quo. In practice that means we are constantly looking to change, to improve and to enhance our business performance and sustainability.
