  "account": "Aker BP shares could be sold for a total of 11.18 billion kroner if the final price is based on Wednesday's closing price, according to a recent report. The British oil giant BP currently owns around 15.9 percent of Aker BP, making it the second-largest shareholder after Kjell Inge Røkke. Once shares are sold, the company will enter a 90-day lock-up period, during which BP will not be able to sell any more shares. The offer is set to expire at 08:00 the following morning, and the price per share is expected to be determined before the opening of Oslo Børs. The company has hired Barclays and DNB Carnegie to facilitate the sale, and states that it reserves the right to sell less than five percent and to terminate the sale entirely. Aker BP released its third-quarter results in late October, reporting a significant profit jump, attributed to higher energy prices and a reversal of earlier write-downs. However, lower operating cash flows weighed on the overall performance. British BP may also report strong quarterly growth in the previous quarter. The capital markets day for the company is on December 15. The news arrives on the same day that oil prices dropped sharply. At the time of writing, a barrel of North Sea oil costs around 94 dollars on the spot market, roughly five dollars less than the previous close on Oslo Børs.",
