How it reaches your house.
Starting from BP plc, we walked the supply graph hop by hop to the goods you buy and the companies you own. Each step is the engine’s reasoning, scored for confidence and cited where a source backs it.
First impact
Shell plc →Shortage riskHelix Energy Solutions Group, Inc.HLX
Shell is 18% of Helix's consolidated revenue, so a Shell production disruption can cut demand and revenue for Helix.
57% confidenceShell plc →DelaysShell represents about 19.5% of Noble's backlog, so Shell-related offshore work could be delayed if Shell's North Sea activity is interrupted.
55% confidenceBP plc →DelaysNatural gas wellhead production
Reuters reports a Forties pipeline strike could disrupt North Sea oil and gas flows, so BP's upstream gas-wellhead input would be delayed rather than fully severed; the supplied dependency is relatively small at 3.5% with moderate substitutability.
Hop 2
Natural gas wellhead production →Shortage riskA production halt at natural gas wellhead production directly constrains the critical household gas supply node.
96% confidenceNatural Gas (Roasting Fuel) →DelaysEquinor ASAEQNR
The North Sea pipeline strike delays natural gas flows on this supply edge, and Equinor is an explicitly connected gas supplier with a 3% share.
79% confidenceNoble Corp plc →DelaysHop 3
BP p.l.c. →Shortage riskCalumet, Inc.CLMT
BP supplied roughly 39.3% of Calumet's crude oil supply, so a BP pipeline-related production/flow disruption can materially tighten Calumet's feedstock availability.
86% confidenceNorway →Shortage riskNatural Gas for Yankee Dryer and Steam Generation
Norway supplies 20% of this gas input, and a North Sea pipeline disruption would directly reduce available gas flows into steam-generation and dryer use.
79% confidenceNorway →Shortage riskHop 4
Talos Energy, Inc. →DelaysShell Trading (US) CompanySHEL
Talos disclosed Shell Trading (US) Company as 35% of its oil revenue, so a Talos production halt would delay Shell's crude offtake.
85% confidenceTalos Energy, Inc. →DelaysTalos disclosed Exxon Mobil Corporation as 23% of its natural gas revenue, so a Talos production halt would delay Exxon's gas supply.
