Asked by the Telegraph about the prospect of a so called 'Brexit', whereby Britons would decide to leave the economic bloc, Mr Dudley said: "Sitting back looking at the role of Europe and Britain I'd find it highly unlikely." He added that it was too early to form a view on how a possible 'Brexit' might affect BP.
