BP agreed to sell its stake in Canada’s Bay du Nord offshore oil project to partner Equinor as it refocuses on higher-return opportunities. The move is a portfolio reshuffle rather than a large headline earnings event, but it signals capital reallocation toward projects expected to deliver better returns.
