BHPBilliton is a joint venture with a British Company and an Australian company formed to combine the resources exploration competencies of both companies.

Privatisation - is the dismantling of a previously government-owned business - so that it is managed by private funding rather than (previously) state-funded. Take as an example - the British railway network. Under the old banner of 'British Rail' the tracks, stations and rolling stock were all owned and managed by the UK government. It was subsequently privatised, and the different parts are now maintained by different companies.
Ltd means limited as to the structure of a business, representing a corporation in the US, mostly a British designation for companies established in UK or prior colonies (India, Hong Kong, etc.) also has a different meaning in the auto realm (Ford)
BP is mostly British AND American - 40% shareholders are British and 39% are US. Thus 21% are owned by shareholders in a number of other countries. Hence, it is, arguably, not a British or American company in the true sense but a multinational one.Note also, while the CEO is British, the Chairman is Swedish.While the parent company of the Group, BP plc, is registered in Britain, different parts of the BP Group are registered companies in different countries, including the USA, Britain and Russia, to name just three.Plus, BP is more correctly known as BP, and NOT British Petroleum. It has not been legally known as British Petroleum since 2001, when BP merged with the US company AMOCO.The company within the group that is actually closest associated with the Gulf oil spill is actually BP USA Inc.It is, therefore, argued that BP USA Inc that should be burdened with the cost of the oil spill cleanup, and not the whole of the BP international group.

Raw Materials and markets for British products.
Each colony would provide raw materials to England and this would allow the nation to not have to purchase that product from another nation. By establishing colonies loyal to the Crown, Great Britain would be expanding a dependable market for the finished products coming out of British industries. The colonies would always have a market for their goods, and could buy British products from their industry at a lower cost.Copy from How_did_colonist_benefit_from_mercantilism
