Brunswick Group

Background

Brunswick Group is an independent communications agency founded in 1987 by Sir Alan Parker.¹ It has worked for at least 52 clients in the fossil fuel industry. Brunswick Group’s fossil fuel clients in 2024 included Aramco (the world’s largest corporate greenhouse gas emitter²)³ BP,⁴ Eren Groupe (an energy company with coal projects in Turkey⁵),⁶ Harbour Energy,⁷ Kosmos Energy,⁸ Vitol (the world’s biggest oil trader⁹),¹⁰ ContourGlobal (a British power generation company),¹¹ National Grid (a British utilities company),¹² mining companies Anglo American¹³ and BHP Group¹⁴ (two of the world’s biggest coal producers¹⁵), and Teck Resources,¹⁶ another company that mines coal. Brunswick Group began working for BP in 2010, when it was brought on to manage BP’s response to the Deepwater Horizon disaster, an explosion on an oil rig causing eleven deaths and the largest marine oil spill in history.¹⁷ Other major fossil fuel clients have included Enron,¹⁸ Sinopec,¹⁹ Shell,²⁰ Chevron,²¹ Puma Energy,²² Glencore,²³ and U.S. pipeline company Energy Transfer Partners,²⁴^,²⁵ which is estimated to have had a pipeline leak on average every 11 days between 2002 and 2017, releasing 3.6 million gallons of hazardous liquids.²⁶

Brunswick Group is headquartered in the UK,²⁷ and was ranked second in trade publication PR Week’s 2025 “Top 150 PR Agencies in London and the UK.”²⁸ Brunswick Group also has a large international presence with more than 15 offices worldwide,²⁹ with the U.S. as its largest market in 2023.³⁰

Brunswick Group’s speciality is financial PR, and it advises on crisis management, communications for mergers and acquisitions, regulatory issues, media and investor relations, and corporate campaigns.³¹ This includes helping companies to articulate their “purpose” and advising companies on climate change.³²

Brunswick Group also works for clients in other polluting sectors, including steel,³³ cement,³⁴ agrichemicals,³⁵ aviation,³⁶ and fast fashion.³⁷

Brunswick Group has also worked with the tobacco³⁸ and alcohol industries,³⁹ the gambling industry,⁴⁰ and has had clients in the media sector such as Thomson Reuters.⁴¹ Brunswick Group has also worked for British spy company Hakluyt.⁴² Hakluyt attracted controversy in 2001 when the Sunday Times wrote that Hakluyt employed staff to infiltrate environmental groups when working for BP and Royal Dutch Shell.⁴³

Brunswick Group maintains a large number of influential connections. Sir Alan Parker has personal friendships with political leaders from both the Conservative and Labour parties, and there is a ‘revolving door’ between Brunswick Group employees and senior roles in politics, the media, and the fossil fuel industry (see Key People below). Brunswick Group also has close ties with academia; it works for Stanford University,⁴⁴ sits on the Harvard Roundtable on Corporate Governance,⁴⁵ and donates to the Columbia Journalism School.⁴⁶ Additionally, Wolfgang Blau, the Managing Partner of Brunswick’s global climate hub, is a co-founder of the Oxford Climate Journalism Network at Oxford University, and was a Visiting Fellow of the University of Pennsylvania’s Perry World House in 2023.⁴⁷^,⁴⁸

Race to Zero and other climate advisory work

In December 2022, openDemocracy revealed that Brunswick Group had been simultaneously working for fossil fuel clients such as BP and Aramco as well as for the UN “high-level climate champions” on the “Race to Zero” campaign, which encourages businesses to act on climate change.⁴⁹

Brunswick partner Phil Drew, who had become a special adviser to the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions, led Brunswick Group’s work for the climate champions. In 2017, Drew worked for BP on a campaign to promote natural gas.⁵⁰ Another Brunswick Group partner, Wolfgang Blau, has been an advisor to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change since at least 2022.⁵¹

According to the UN, Brunswick Group joined Race to Zero itself in 2020.⁵² As of December 2025, Brunswick Group’s website says: “Since publicly signing up to the UN Business Ambition for 1.5°C and the UN Race to Zero in June 2020, we have worked to understand our carbon footprint as a firm.”⁵³ Brunswick Group was not listed as a Race to Zero member on either the Race to Zero website or the Global Climate Action Portal, as of December 2025.⁵⁴^,⁵⁵

Brunswick Group has also advised the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (known as both UNPRI and PRI),⁵⁶^,⁵⁷ a United Nations-supported international network of financial institutions working to promote sustainable investment through the incorporation of environmental, social, and governance principles,⁵⁸ and the UN-accredited⁵⁹ World Energy Council,⁶⁰ a think tank backed by government and industry.⁶¹

In addition, Brunswick Group has worked for the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD),⁶² a group established by the G20 and the Financial Stability Board to provide investors with information on what companies are doing to mitigate the risks of climate change.⁶³

Fossil fuel interests in developing countries

Brunswick Group has worked for at least eight smaller oil and gas and mining companies that focus on developing assets in developing countries (New Age, Bowleven, London Mining PLC, Salamander Energy, Ophir Energy, Kosmos Energy, Zhaikmunai [now Nostrum], and Trinity Exploration and Production).⁶⁴ Several of these are listed on the Alternative Investment Market, which has a record of attracting small oil, gas, and mining companies, and has been criticized for weak regulation.⁶⁵ Several of the companies that Brunswick Group has worked for have been involved in controversy. New Age, London Mining plc, Seven Energy, and Kosmos Energy have all been charged with or accused of corrupt practices,⁶⁶^,⁶⁷^,⁶⁸ and Bowleven has experienced ongoing struggles regarding its management⁶⁹ and finances.⁷⁰

Brunswick Group also represents large companies with controversial interests in developing countries. For example, Vitol, which Brunswick has worked with periodically since at least 2010, has been involved in several major scandals.⁷¹^,⁷²^,⁷³

Brunswick Group is a member of the Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment Council (CWEIC),⁷⁴ a membership organization that seeks to facilitate trade and investment throughout the 56 Commonwealth member nations,⁷⁵ alongside its longstanding client BP.⁷⁶ Brunswick Group attended the 2020 UK-Africa Investment Summit, alongside its clients Anglo American, BP, Cairn, and New Age,⁷⁷ has lobbied the EU regarding gas investment in Africa,⁷⁸ and supports an African mining investment event.⁷⁹^,⁸⁰ It has also represented organizations working on the Africa Carbon Markets Initiative, which some critics say distracts from the need to decarbonize.⁸¹

Brunswick Arts

Brunswick Group has a division, Brunswick Arts, which has the dual purpose of promoting the interests of arts, cultural and charitable organizations and helping businesses to “make the most of working with arts and culture – maximizing sponsorships, developing arts prizes, creating cultural strategies, and advising foundations.”⁸²

In 2025, DeSmog revealed how Sadler’s Wells, a top-performing arts theatre, hired Brunswick Group to help it craft its corporate messaging strategy amid growing protests urging it to cut ties with its sponsor, Barclays. This investigation was based on Freedom of Information requests filed by campaign group Culture Unstained and shared with DeSmog. The emails obtained showed how Brunswick drafted a letter published in May 2025 in the Financial Times defending corporate sponsorships of the arts, signed by Sadler’s Wells and 10 other leading cultural institutions.⁸³

Brunswick has worked with at least five of the institutions that signed the letter (including Sadler’s Wells) and has also counted the cultural sponsors Barclays, BP, and Shell among its clients. Senior staff at Brunswick also have a network of ties to the arts industry. For example, at least three Brunswick Group executives have held board positions at institutions that signed the letter to the Financial Times.⁸⁴Ellen Ormesher. “How a Big Oil PR Firm Helped Top UK Cultural Institutions Defend Their Fossil Fuel Sponsorships,” DeSmog, December 17, 2025.⁸⁵

Stance on Climate Change

Brunswick Group’s Vice Chairman and former chief executive, Neal Wolin, has said the company wants “to be part of the solution” to climate change.⁸⁶ Brunswick Group has said that it will achieve this through two methods: “First, cutting our own operational emissions. Second, helping our clients succeed in the net[-]zero economy.”⁸⁷

In 2022, a Brunswick Group spokesperson told PR Week that it advises its clients “on what is expected of them on climate change by financial, political and societal stakeholders, and the actions they can take to build trust.”⁸⁸ Brunswick has a dedicated “climate hub.”⁸⁹

According to its website, Brunswick has set short- and medium-term targets to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which the Science Based Targets initiative, a global body that enables businesses to set net-zero targets, has approved.⁹⁰ Compared to 2022, Brunswick Group has increased the ambition of its pledge to reduce scope 1 and 2 emissions (emissions under its direct control and from its purchased energy), with its pledge as of 2025 committing to reducing these emissions by 38.8% by 2028,⁹¹ compared to its 2022 promise of a 37.8% reduction.⁹² However, there has been backsliding on its scope 3 emissions pledge (the emissions Brunswick is indirectly responsible for in its value chain). In 2022, the pledge was to reduce scope 3 emissions by 54.6% per employee by 2028.⁹³ The target as of 2024 is to reduce scope 3 GHG emissions by 54.6% from travel per employee by 2028.⁹⁴ This means that Brunswick Group’s commitment does not cover scope 3 emissions, purchased goods and services, and waste, all of which account for 44% of Brunswick’s emissions in 2022.⁹⁵^,⁹⁶

Brunswick Group posts blog-post type articles about the oil and gas industry on its website,⁹⁷^,⁹⁸ includes articles discussing sustainability in its magazine, the Brunswick Review,⁹⁹^,¹⁰⁰ and participates in events relating to sustainability and the energy transition.¹⁰¹^,¹⁰² In a self-promotional video by Brunswick Group, partner Phil Drew says that the firm is at “the very core of the global climate effort.”¹⁰³ However, Duncan Meisel, executive director of Clean Creatives, a group that encourages creatives to cut ties with the fossil fuel industry, told the Guardian newspaper in 2024: “I think you can make the case that Brunswick’s speciality is in greenwashing,” because “They helped BP to greenwash gas … and their other client Saudi Aramco’s biggest talking point is that they produce the greenest oil in the world.”¹⁰⁴

Funding

In 2022, Brunswick Group’s global revenue was £390.9 million, with an underlying operating profit of £59.6 million.¹⁰⁵ In 2023, This is Money, which provides financial and business news, reported that the U.S. was Brunswick’s largest market, with revenues of £197 million, followed by the UK with £114 million.¹⁰⁶

Donations

Brunswick Group previously listed on its website various charities that was supporting. This included Columbia Journalism School, the Committee to Protect Journalists, and the Knight Bagehot Program (a fellowship in economics and business journalism).¹⁰⁷

Brunswick Group donated between £50,000 and £99,999 to Chatham House, a UK think tank, in the 2021-2022 financial year (the last year that Chatham House reported on its donors). Chatham House also accepts funding from numerous fossil fuel companies.¹⁰⁸

Lobbying expenditure

In 2023, Brunswick spent 2,395,000 Euros on lobbying the EU, employed 21 EU lobbyists (7.2 Full Time Equivalent), and attended 38 high-level commission meetings.¹⁰⁹

On May 23, 2025, a letter was published in the Financial Times letters page defending corporate sponsorships of the arts. According to Freedom of Information requests filed by campaign group Culture Unstained and shared with DeSmog, this letter was drafted by Brunswick Group as part of its work for its client Sadler’s Wells. Brunswick also helped coordinate the letter signatories, which included Brunswick clients the V&A, British Museum, Southbank Centre, and the National Theatre. Brunswick Group also liaised with National Gallery Director Gabriele Finaldi and Science Museum Director Ian Blatchford regarding the letter, and both organisations eventually signed it.³⁰⁰Ellen Ormesher. “How a Big Oil PR Firm Helped Top UK Cultural Institutions Defend Their Fossil Fuel Sponsorships,” DeSmog, December 17, 2025.³⁰¹

According to a Brunswick Group document forwarded to V&A Director Tristram Hunt by Sir Alastair, co-director of Sadler’s Wells, the publication date of the letter in the Financial Times was intended to mark the one-year anniversary of the Edinburgh International Festival’s decision to end its 20-year funding partnership with Bailie Gifford. The festival dropped the Scottish fund manager following pressure from authors and others working in the publishing industry over the company’s investments in fossil fuels and arms.³⁰²

The letter argued that “Our museums, theatres, festivals and artists need to operate within the economic structures in which society operates… we must find a way to show that cultural organisations contribute to a better world, and partnership with business and philanthropy is an admirable and valuable part of that mission.” The text also quoted Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy’s warning in a February 2025 speech that “moral puritanism” towards corporate funding risks “killing off” arts and culture.³⁰³Ellen Ormesher. “How a Big Oil PR Firm Helped Top UK Cultural Institutions Defend Their Fossil Fuel Sponsorships,” DeSmog, December 17, 2025.³⁰⁴

November 2024

Freedom of Information requests filed by campaign group Culture Unstained and shared with DeSmog revealed that Brunswick Group proposed to develop an 18-24 month communications strategy for the performing arts theatre Sadler’s Wells.³⁰⁵ This was against a backdrop of growing protests urging Sadler’s Wells to cut ties with its sponsor, Barclays, a British bank, due to the bank’s investments in fossil fuels and arms.³⁰⁶^,³⁰⁷

The November 2024 communications strategy brief devised by Brunswick Group suggested Sadler’s Wells core message should be ‘Dance Matters.’ A diagram depicted issues Sadler’s Wells should engage on, including “culture as a driver for the economy.” Sadler’s Wells’ leadership would later repeat this Brunswick-devised language in their letter published in the Financial Times in May 2025. “Ethical funding,” “culture as a target for activism,” and “government culture policy” were all greyed out—marking them as issues that Sadler’s Wells should avoid.³⁰⁸Ellen Ormesher. “How a Big Oil PR Firm Helped Top UK Cultural Institutions Defend Their Fossil Fuel Sponsorships,” DeSmog, December 17, 2025.³⁰⁹

January 23, 2024

Wolfgang Blau, managing partner of the Brunswick Group’s global climate hub, spoke at an event at the University of Pennsylvania’s Perry World House: “Understanding Outcomes from the Latest UN Climate Conference.”³²⁷ Blau was a Visiting Fellow of Perry World House in 2023.³²⁸

January 2024

In November 2023, PR Week reported that Brunswick Group and Sir Alan Parker were assisting Sir Keir Starmer, the leader of the Labour Party in opposition at the time, in building relationships with business, and that they would be facilitating a high-level briefing for Starmer in January 2024. Starmer said that he wanted to focus on skills and training in the workforce to drive ‘growth, the transition to net zero and capture the benefit of new technologies.’³²⁹ ‘This is Money’ reported that the relationship is likely to have been pro bono.³³⁰

2023

The Renewables Infrastructure Group (TRIG) appointed Brunswick Group as its Public Relations advisor.³³¹ TRIG is a British investment trust dedicated to investments in renewable energy.”³³²

2023

In 2023, Brunswick Group spent between 100,000€ and 199,999€ lobbying the EU on behalf of Lightsource BP, a solar energy company, regarding the EU Net-Zero Industry Act.³³³ Lightsource BP was 50% owned by BP between 2019 and 2023, with BP acquiring full ownership in November 2023.³³⁴

2023

Brunswick Group worked for at least three clients in 2023 who are focused on developing carbon markets, including the Africa Carbon Markets Initiative. The Africa Carbon Markets Initiative has been controversial,³³⁵ with some organizations arguing that it is a “false solution” that distracts from the need to decarbonize.³³⁶

According to LobbyFacts, Brunswick spent between 200,000€ and 299,999€ in 2023 on lobbying the EU on energy access and the green transition in developing countries on behalf of its client, the Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP).³³⁷ The Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP) describes itself as bringing together philanthropy, governments, development partners, and the private sector “to accelerate the green energy transition to end energy poverty across emerging economies”. GEAPP was launched at COP26 with a commitment of US$1.5 billion from The Rockefeller Foundation, IKEA Foundation, and the Bezos Earth Fund. In 2023, it was one of the organizations that launched the Africa Carbon Markets Initiative.³³⁸

Brunswick Group also worked for the UAE Independent Climate Change Accelerators (UICCA).³³⁹ UICCA was launched in 2022 and is led by a member of the UAE Royal family, Her Highness Sheikha Shamma bint Sultan bin Khalifa Al Nahyan, and also works on developing the green economy.³⁴⁰

Brunswick Group also worked with Emirates NBD (Dubai’s government-owned bank) in 2023.³⁴¹

November 30 – December 13, 2023

Brunswick Group worked with the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions for COP28,³⁴² and attended COP28 itself. A LinkedIn post by a Brunswick executive showed that Brunswick represented an unknown number of corporate clients at COP28, in addition to the UN climate champions: “It was a great experience to be able to visit the COP site as well as contribute to the great work Brunswick Group did across a broad spectrum of their corporate clients participating in the event,” the executive said.³⁴³

March 1, 2023

Brunswick attended a meeting with Aleksandra Tomczak, an EU official. Tomczak was serving as a cabinet member to the Executive Vice-President of the European Commission, Frans Timmermans, whose portfolio at the time included the European Green Deal. The subject of the meeting was gas investment in Africa. Kosmos Energy Ltd,³⁴⁴ a Brunswick client,³⁴⁵ also attended the meeting. Kosmos Energy is an American fossil fuel company that holds several production and development operations in Africa.³⁴⁶

January – March 2023

Brunswick Group lobbied on behalf of the Sustainable Homes and Buildings Coalition in the UK.³⁴⁷ The Sustainable Homes and Buildings Coalition is a coalition between NatWest Group, British Gas, Worcester Bosch, and Shelter, which aims to improve UK buildings’ energy efficiency and address barriers to meeting net zero in the UK buildings environment.³⁴⁸

December 2022

[O]penDemocracy revealed that Brunswick Group was simultaneously working for fossil fuel clients such as BP and Aramco as well as for the UN “high-level climate champions”. Brunswick Group was working with the Climate Champions to develop UN-backed climate policies and campaigns, including the “Race to Zero” campaign, which encourages businesses to act on climate change.³⁴⁹

The Brunswick Group had been working for the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions since at least 2019. Brunswick partner Phil Drew, who had become a special adviser to the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions, led the work. Drew had worked for BP on behalf of Brunswick Group in at least 2017 and 2018, and, when asked by openDemocracy, Brunswick Group would not confirm or deny whether Drew had continued to work on the BP account after he began working with the Climate Champions.³⁵⁰

In response to criticism from environmental organization Clean Creatives, a spokesperson for Brunswick Group told PR Week: “We believe it is vital to be engaged with companies in the most complex sectors to decarbonise.” The spokesperson also said, “We aspire to provide clients across all industries with world-class advice on what is expected of them on climate change … and the actions they can take to build trust and credibly demonstrate they’re part of the solution rather than part of the problem.”³⁵¹

Research has shown that portraying themselves as “part of the solution” whilst continuing to contribute to climate change is a greenwashing technique widely used by fossil fuel companies.³⁵²^,³⁵³

Frances Way, executive director of the Climate Champions team, said to openDemocracy: “We collaborate with a wide-range [sic] of organisations, including Brunswick, that are working to achieve a resilient, 1.5°C-aligned future, requiring actors across all sectors of the economy to transition, including among the most systemically important industries that need to decarbonise.” The climate champions did not respond when asked by openDemocracy whether Brunswick Group was in breach of the Race to Zero guidelines.³⁵⁴

November 6 – November 20, 2022

Brunswick Group worked with the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions for COP27.³⁵⁵

November 2022

Brunswick Group was named in a consultation report for the Viking CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) project.³⁵⁶ The Viking CCS project is designed to transport CO2 emissions captured from the heavily polluting Humber region in the UK and store them in gas fields in the North Sea.³⁵⁷ The project is a joint venture between Harbour Energy and BP, both Brunswick Group clients in 2022.

The report detailed the stakeholder engagement and consultation activities undertaken by Harbour Energy for the project between early 2021 and mid-to-late 2022. The report said that “To date, several public affairs activities have been carried out by Harbour Energy, with support from Brunswick Group.” A table provides a breakdown of these activities, and includes:³⁵⁸

A further table details media engagement conducted with support from Brunswick. This table includes engagement with news outlets such as The Guardian, The Telegraph, CNN, and The Economist, as well as with various trade and local media outlets. The report said that these engagement efforts resulted in a published article about the Viking CCS project in Business Live, a source of UK business news.³⁶⁰ The Business Live article said that the project “proposes to hold at least 11 million tonnes of CO2 per year, providing the capacity to help decarbonise more than 50 per cent of the Humber region’s industrial activity”.³⁶¹ In June 2024, the Viking CCS project website said “10 million tonnes CO₂ captured per year by 2030”.³⁶²

Brunswick Group provided PR services for the Viking CCS transportation and storage project from 2021 to at least 2023.³⁶³^,³⁶⁴

All of these meetings were to discuss the implementation of the European Green Deal.³⁷⁶ SUEZ, a Brunswick client, also attended these meetings.³⁷⁷^,³⁷⁸ SUEZ is a French waste and water management company.³⁷⁹

In 2021, SUEZ and its rival Veolia were seeking EU approval to merge. In December 2021, Reuters reported that SUEZ and Veolia had received EU antitrust approval for the 13 billion-euro deal.³⁸⁰ Regarding the approval, Margrethe Vestager said, “By this decision, the Commission ensures that this transaction will not adversely affect competition in the water and waste markets, two sectors that are key to the European Green Deal and the circular economy.”³⁸¹

December 2 – 13, 2019

Brunswick Group worked with the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions for COP25.³⁹⁴

September 2019

In a 2022 article on Substack (an online publishing platform), climate reporter and DeSmog contributor Paul Thacker said that he had experienced “harassment” from a Brunswick employee, Jack Emery, in 2019. He said that this occurred after he wrote an article for the Huffington Post about how Monsanto, the agri-chemical company, had used dubious tactics to undermine critics and to influence the media. These tactics included hiring Hakulyt, a British spy company, to gather information from high-ranking government officials in the U.S. Hakulyt was a Brunswick client around the time the Huffington Post article was published in September 2019, as was Bayer, the company that acquired Monsanto in 2018.³⁹⁵

Thacker said that “Shortly after the article posted, Brunswick’s Emery started in with demands for corrections.” Thacker noted that Emery then “continued to badger me with a stream of emails, looping in more and more editors at HuffPost, including the Corrections Editor, UK Editor, and even the Editor-in-Chief.” Thacker said that when he asked Emery if Brunswick had a contract with Bayer, “he finally ceased the harassment.”³⁹⁶

2019

A BP Communications & External Affairs budget, released by the U.S. Congress’s House Committee on Natural Resources, shows that BP reduced Brunswick Group services by $345,000 for the period 2018 to 2019.³⁹⁷ Brunswick Group worked for BP in both 2018³⁹⁸ and 2020.³⁹⁹ It is unclear whether the $345,000 reduction represented the total services provided by Brunswick Group to BP in 2019 or if it was only a portion of Brunswick’s services, with Brunswick continuing to provide other services to BP in 2019.

2019

In 2019, BP increased its stake in Lightsource BP to 50%⁴⁰⁰ and launched the campaign “we see possibilities everywhere”- its first since the Deepwater Horizon incident – which focused on BP’s development of renewable energy. The campaign was criticized for greenwashing, given that clean energy accounted for around three percent of BP’s business in 2018.⁴⁰¹ The campaign was created by WPP subsidiaries Ogilvy, Purple Strategies, and Mindshare Media.⁴⁰² Brunswick Group worked for Lightsource BP in 2019,⁴⁰³ and likely also for BP,⁴⁰⁴ though it is not known to DeSmog whether they played a role in the development of this campaign.

May 2017 – 2019

In May 2017, Reuters reported that Aramco had appointed Brunswick Group to run media and investor relations for its initial public offering (IPO), alongside business consultancy FTI Consulting.⁴⁰⁵

In October 2018, in the wake of the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, Politico reported on the PR agencies working for the government of Saudi Arabia and Saudi entities. In the article, Politico wrote that “Brunswick’s Brussels office said it does not have any relationship with Aramco or any other Saudi entity.”⁴⁰⁶

In November 2018, PR Week reported that a Brunswick Group spokesperson had said publicly that Brunswick “will continue to handle financial communications for ARAMCO, as the state-owned petroleum company prepares for what is expected to be a $100 billion IPO” (emphasis added). The spokesperson added that this did not involve any government work.⁴⁰⁷

The IPO took place in December 2019, raising $25.6 billion, making it, at the time, the largest initial stock offering in history.⁴⁰⁸

2018

Brunswick Group produced a “Young Leaders programme” in partnership with Mining Indaba,⁴⁰⁹ an annual mining investment event.⁴¹⁰ Carol Cable, a Brunswick Group partner, acted as a judge for a ‘leaders of tomorrow’ competition as part of this programme.⁴¹¹

2016 – 2018

Emails exchanged between Brunswick Group and BP employees from 2016 to 2018, released by the U.S. House Oversight Committee in 2022 and 2024, show that Brunswick Group monitored media coverage of various issues on BP’s behalf during this period.⁴¹³ The issues being monitored included the Deepwater Horizon disaster (an explosion on an oil rig that caused 11 deaths and the largest marine oil spill in history⁴¹⁴),⁴¹⁵^,⁴¹⁶ a battle over whether to mandate climate-related financial disclosure,⁴¹⁷^,⁴¹⁸^,⁴¹⁹^,⁴²⁰ and the impact of then U.S. president Donald Trump’s energy policy on climate action.⁴²¹ Emails from the same tranche of documents show that Brunswick Group was also tracking the strategy of the Union of Concerned Scientists, a nonprofit science advocacy organization, and the work of science writer Bill McKibben.⁴²²

Deepwater Horizon

On May 13, 2016, Hallie Dewey, an account researcher at Brunswick Group, sent BP staff five articles referencing the Deepwater Horizon disaster, published by Bloomberg, Oilprice.com, Common Dreams, Huffington Post, and Greenpeace. Dewey also shared an article by Oil Change International, which highlighted a paragraph describing how the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation had divested from BP. The recipients of the emails were BP communications, legal, and government affairs staff.⁴²³

In 2018, around the 8th anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon disaster, Emily Erdmier, a Brunswick employee,⁴²⁴ emailed a series of articles from various news outlets to BP staff. A partially redacted email address appears in the recipient list of these emails:⁴²⁵

Source: BP internal document, released by U.S. House Oversight Committee.⁴²⁶

Kirkland Ellis is a law firm that defended BP in the Deepwater Horizon disaster.⁴²⁷ The format of this email suggests that Kirkland Ellis was working so intimately with Brunswick that it had its own Brunswick Group email address.

Union of Concerned Scientists

A further email from Dewey included an article from The Washington Free Beacon. This article discusses the Union of Concerned Scientists’ strategy for holding fossil fuel companies accountable for their denial of climate change. The article seemed to generate substantial interest from BP. Rachel Stutz, who was at the time BP’s Chief Counsel of Communications and External Affairs,⁴²⁸ then emailed senior staff from communications, government affairs, and regulatory affairs (Geoff Morrell, Mary Streett, Robert Stout, and David Jan van Hoogstraten) about this article, saying: “This story confirms the UCS strategy for state AG [Attorney General] actions. I will have Brunswick pull the UCS emails.” Robert Stout, VP and Head of Regulatory Affairs, also forwarded the article to Marcelo Panelo, a BP senior director of U.S. Federal Regulatory Affairs (Safety & Health).⁴²⁹

Bill McKibben

Virginia Northington, a Brunswick associate at the time,⁴³⁰ forwarded an opinion piece by climate writer Bill McKibben to several BP employees.⁴³¹ In response, Tom Wolf, Director of Communications and External Affairs at BP, wrote to colleagues:⁴³²

“I’m sorry, I live on earth so I don’t get what planet this guy lives on. We all know his diatribe has many holes in it…but his biggest one is the infrastructure piece. Americans are fighting pipelines, but they are also fighting transmission lines that would bring wind energy and solar energy to market…. Simply put, Americans have a Dire Straits mentality. They want their money for nothin’ and their chicks for free.”

2017

Internal BP documents, subpoenaed by the U.S. Congress’s House Committee on Natural Resources, show that Brunswick Group supported BP to “Advance and protect the role of gas—and BP—in the future of energy conversation.”⁴³³^,⁴³⁴

In 2017, Brunswick Group designed an advocacy campaign for BP on gas and methane. Brunswick partner Phil Drew presented the proposed campaign to BP executives, including Bob Stout, BP’s Vice President and Head of Regulatory Affairs. The presentation said that “renewables dominate the debate on the future of energy” and that because gas was “still a fossil fuel,” BP needed to “reframe the conversation on gas.”⁴³⁵ To achieve this, Brunswick Group recommended BP “position the positive role of gas in the context of advancing the transition to a low-carbon future” by emphasizing gas as lower carbon than coal and by presenting gas as a partner to renewables.⁴³⁶ Another key tactic of the campaign was to position BP as a leader in tackling methane leaks, which are a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions from gas, and which Brunswick described as the “Achilles’ heel” of the case for gas.⁴³⁷ The House Committee subsequently concluded that Brunswick Group had encouraged BP to advocate for methane regulation to “advance BP’s self[-]interest in continuing to produce and sell natural gas.”⁴³⁸

Source: Brunswick.⁴³⁹

The campaign also proposed that BP partner with prestigious Princeton University to release new data on gas, allowing BP to “contribute to the debate”, and also with the Environmental Defense Fund,⁴⁴⁰ the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED)⁴⁴¹ (the main EU instrument regulating pollutant emissions from industrial installations⁴⁴²), and Masdar, the clean energy arm of oil company ADNOC.⁴⁴³

Source: Brunswick.⁴⁴⁴

Brunswick recommended that priority audiences should include the governments of the U.S., UK, Belgium, Germany, and China, alongside “top[-]tier media,” think tanks, and academics.⁴⁴⁵^,⁴⁴⁶

It appears that BP embarked on the campaign as recommended by Brunswick Group. In 2018, BP held an event to promote reductions in methane leaks. Princeton professors attended the event, and BP subsequently announced that it was “supporting” Princeton “to improve scientific understanding of methane.”⁴⁴⁷^,⁴⁴⁸

A draft BP document from 2018, released by the U.S. Congress’s House Committee on Natural Resources, shows that BP planned to continue to hire Brunswick Group to provide “strategic development and content creation” for the gas and methane campaign from 2019 to 2020, for a fee of $350,000. The ongoing campaign aimed to “Position BP as [a] strong gas player” and would continue to position BP as a leader on methane leaks. It would also center gas as a “key part of BP’s low carbon strategy” and “Explain the benefits of gas as a transition and destination fuel – lower carbon; partner to renewables; vital to meet Paris goals.” As with the previous campaign strategy, the intention was to leverage Princeton, Imperial College, and the University of Edinburgh to advance campaign goals. The document specified that the target audience was “opinion leaders,” and that the campaign would seek to “set context for successful local policy dialogue.”⁴⁴⁹

Brunswick Group has had a longstanding relationship with the oil company Puma Energy, with its subsidiary, MerchantCantos, having worked for Puma Energy since at least 2013,⁴⁶⁹ 2016,⁴⁷⁰ 2017,⁴⁷¹ and 2021.⁴⁷² During this period, MerchantCantos redesigned Puma Energy’s branding. Smith Joseph, a creator who worked on this project for MerchantCantos, described the project in his portfolio: “How do you redefine the brand of a global oil major? By moving the emphasis away from Puma Energy services, and changing the narrative to how Puma Energy empowers customer journeys.”⁴⁷³
