A report from Mark Kleinman of Sky News said that BP (NYSE:BP) is close to signing a “major” exploration deal China National Offshore Oil Corp. (CNOOC), the state-owned energy company.
The two companies would explore the South China Sea together, according to Kleinman, writing on his blog. BP and CNOOC have worked together in the past in the same region.
British Prime Minister David Cameron is set to visit China this week, and the deal should be completed before that time.
Neither company commented on the assertion, which cited unnamed sources.

No Evidence BP (NYSE:BP) Swayed Scotland Decision to Release Lockerbie Bomber
The Prime Minister of Britain, David Cameron, reiterated his conclusion in the matter of BP (NYSE:BP) being somehow involved in persuading Scotland officials to release him, that there is no evidence to show that was the case.
He also pushed against the Democrats and Hillary Clinton, who foolishly have called for a full inquiry into the alleged connection. Cameron said, "I don't think there's any great mystery here. ... I don't need an inquiry to tell me it was a bad decision. It was a bad decision."
Cameron also separated the oil spill from the Lockerbie incident, saying they are two completely different things. That seemed to be a rebuke to the embarrasing Democrats who were ranting about "blood money" and other outrageous statements concerning the alleged connection between BP and releasing the criminal, without them having a shred of evidence to back up their irresponsible comments.
Cameron also continued to press the issue of the importance of BP to America and Britain, and the importance of them surviving the ordeal, while paying for their liabilities in the oil spill. He cited thousands of jobs created by BP in both countries as one of the important characteristics of the oil giant.

BP (NYSE:BP) Lockerbie Inquiry Rejected by British Prime Minister David Cameron
Under fire in his own country for looking like he didn't stand up for BP (NYSE:BP) against the onslaught of the Obama administration, British Prime Minister David Cameron, in his first visit in that capacity to America, reiterated it was in the best interests of America and Britain for a strong BP, while rejecting demands from Democrats for a full inquiry into the release of the Lockerbie bomber to Libya.
Cameron did say he asked his cabinet secretary to see if any other documents related to the case would be allowed to be made public.
This was a sound thrashing of the thuggish Democrats, who outrageously, and without any proof whatsoever, implied British government officials lied about an alleged connection between the release of the prisoner and BP, even going so far as to call it "blood money." Democrat heads should roll because of that childish behavior and unbelievable lack of self control and demagoguery in making those types of accusations.
Cameron reiterated that BP had absolutely no role in the release of the Lockerbie bomber. He also repeated the theme that BP needs to remain "strong and sound," not only because of its value to the economies of both countries, but also to be able to pay for the obligations it has to the Gulf oil spill.
