Dio succeeds John Mingé, who will move to chair a study by the National Petroleum Council into CCUS technologies and their potential deployment. He will retire from BP in March 2019.
Susan Dio, a chemical engineer by training, has been the CEO of BP Shipping for the past three years, responsible for BP’s shipping business worldwide.

“Susan’s breadth of operational and commercial experience gained with BP around the world—including leading our global shipping business, running a major refinery, and managing a chemical plant—make her ideally-suited for the key role of representing BP in the U.S.,” Bob Dudley, BP’s group CEO, said.
