BP‐Amoco brings out the best in its people: ...and the lessons learned from other successful international mergers

Abstract

The merger between oil giants British Petroleum (BP) and US‐based Amoco brought about more benefits, more quickly than either organization had forecast. It is regarded by some as one of the most successful mergers of two large international groups. An important reason was the extensive preparations made for the merger.
