Will interim BP chief who called 'wind power the new upstream' get job full-time after shock Looney exit?

BP’s interim CEO Murray Auchincloss – tipped by some analysts as a contender for the role full-time – famously said offshore wind was the new upstream oil & gas.

Auchincloss, BP’s finance chief, was propelled into the BP hot seat on an interim basis after Bernard Looney abruptly resigned yesterday (Tuesday) over failure to disclose details of “personal relationships” with colleagues at the oil giant.
