Company Description


BHP Billiton is a global mining, oil and gas company headquartered in Melbourne, Australia and with a major management office in London, United Kingdom. It is the worlds largest mining company measured by revenue and, as of February 2011, the worlds third-largest company measured by market capitalisation.

BHP Billiton Limited is a global mining and metals company with headquarters in Melbourne, Australia. The company is the largest mining company in the world and is listed on the London Stock Exchange and the Australian Securities Exchange. BHP Billiton is a diversified resources company that produces a range of commodities, including iron ore, coal, copper, oil, and natural gas. It also has interests in energy, industrial minerals, and potash. The company operates in more than 25 countries and employs around 36,000 people.

BHP Billiton has a long history of operations and has been in existence since 1885. The company has grown significantly over the years, expanding its operations around the world and diversifying its portfolio. In 2001, BHP merged with Billiton, a South African mining company, to become BHP Billiton Limited. The merger allowed the company to expand its operations into new markets and become a global leader in the mining industry.

BHP Billiton has a strong commitment to safety, sustainability, and social responsibility. The company has implemented a range of initiatives to reduce its environmental footprint, including reducing its carbon emissions, investing in renewable energy, and investing in technology to reduce the impact of its operations. The company also works with local communities to ensure that its operations have a positive impact on the environment and local people.

BHP Billiton is well-positioned to continue to be a global leader in the mining industry and to continue to grow and diversify its operations. The company is focused on providing sustainable solutions to the world's resources challenges and is committed to creating value for its shareholders and stakeholders. The diversification of the BHP Billiton portfolio continues to be our defining attribute. The quality of our people, our asset base and our unchanged strategy of owning and operating large, long-life, low-cost, expandable, upstream assets diversified by commodity, geography and market, together with our ability and commitment to investing through the cycle and delivering projects on budget and to schedule, is what sets us apart from our peers.
