LONDON, Feb 7 (Reuters) - BP's head of downstream
Tufan Erginbilgic will step down next month after six years in
the job, the energy company said in a statement, becoming the
latest top executive to leave as CEO Bernard Looney takes over.
Erginbilgic, who joined BP in 1997, oversaw the expansion
of the downstream business, which includes refining, retail and
petrochemicals, into electric vehicle charging and added
thousands of petrol stations in developing economies such as
India and Mexico.
The announcement on his departure comes two days after
Looney took the helm from Bob Dudley.
It follows Chief Financial Officer Brian Gilvary's decision
to leave the company in June.
Erginbilgic's successor will be announced separately, BP
said.
