Both Shell and Exxon Mobil have also warned that lower refining margins will hit profits for the third quarter of the year.

BP expects a slump in refining margins to take a 400 million dollar to 600 million dollar chunk out of its third-quarter profit.

Economic slowdowns in major economies including China, along with a growth in electric car sales, have contributed to the fall. It comes after a period when oil prices fell significantly this year, with Brent crude futures prices tumbling by more than one-sixth during the third quarter.
