High flying BP executive Julia Emanuele has accumulated shares worth more than £125,000 in the past six months.
The chief operating officer at the oil giant's lucrative crude trading division has acquired the shares since September, according to disclosures made on the London Stock Exchange.
The disclosures appear on the LSE's regulatory news service as her partner is chief executive Murray Auchincloss.
He notified the board of their relationship in July 2020, when he was hired as finance chief. Since then she has been described in the share dealing announcements as 'a person closely associated with Auchincloss'.
He was promoted in September to chief executive after Bernard Looney's shock resignation, a role made permanent last month. BP confirmed in September that Auchincloss was in a 'longstanding relationship and his partner also works in BP'.
