BP withdraws from Riyadh event
A BP spokesperson said the company had made every effort to participate in the five-day conference but could not attend in person because of travel disruption. The decision followed attacks at Riyadh's airport that Reuters reported had killed 13 people and wounded more than 300. BP CEO Meg O'Neill had appeared on earlier conference agendas, while the event continued at a convention center away from the airport, Reuters reported.
