What does Amoco oil have to do with BP?

Amoco is a brand owned by BP. BP bought Amoco Corporation in 1998. The merged company was known as "BP Amoco" until 2001, then changed its name to BP p.l.c. The letters BP do not stand for British Petroleum any more. The company is a global supermajor, headquartered in London, traded in New York and London, with operations on all continents. Most of its U.S. workforce are former employees or Amoco and Arco (Atlantic Richfield). Under CEO Sir John Browne, BP used the slogan 'Beyond Petroleum', implying an effort to become an "energy company" rather than strictly an oil and gas company. Other brands owned by BP include Castrol (engine oils), Aral (German network of gas stations), ARCO.
