Data to Wednesday, 17 June 2026

The marker prices and margins below do not represent the actual prices or margins realised by bp during the given periods. This data is normally updated every Friday at 3.30pm UK time (or nearest UK working day in the event of public holiday).

Quarter-to-date data are updated to the date shown at the top of this page.

^{* The WCS differential to WTI calendar month average is based on a quoted Platts differential and used as a generic indicator. Actual crude differentials captured by bp’s refineries may vary significantly due to a variety of factors, such as apportionment, rationing or operational issues on third party crude logistics infrastructure.}

The refining margins shown above are compiled using data from third-party databases, and as such may be subject to possible errors.

^{* The bp Refining Indicator Margin is a simple indicator of the weighted average of bp’s crude slate and product yield as deemed representative for each refinery. Actual margins realised by bp may vary due to a variety of factors, including the actual mix of a crude and product for a given quarter.}

Important note – rules of thumb

The rules of thumb were reviewed in the first quarter of 2026, based on the then prevailing range of oil and gas prices. They are intended to give directional indicators of the impact of changes in the trading environment on bp's 2026 full-year pre-tax results.

These rules of thumb are approximate and based upon bp’s current portfolio of oil and gas businesses. The weighting of the rules of thumb for Brent and Henry Hub is an approximate split of 80% to oil production & operations and 20% to gas & low carbon energy.

Please note that the relationship between prices and results is not necessarily linear across a wide range of oil and gas prices. Changes in margins, differentials, seasonal demand patterns, operational issues, hedge positions and other factors including timing of acquisition and divestment activity, can also materially impact the results. Hedging activity impacts the Henry Hub rule of thumb and as a result should not be treated as representative of the longer-term sensitivity.

Significant differences between the estimates implied by the application of the rules of thumb and the actual results themselves may also arise due to complex mechanisms for calculating government shares of oil and gas revenues in some jurisdictions, depending on price levels.

The bp Refining Indicator Margin rule of thumb reflects the sensitivity of the group’s results to changes in refining margins. However, actual margins realised by bp may vary due to a variety of factors, including the actual mix of a crude and product for a given quarter.
