Bataafse Petroleum Maatschappij (BPM), also known as Bataafsche Petroleum Maatschappij (english: Batavian Oil Company) was a subsidiary of the Royal Dutch Shell oil company established in 1907 which extracted and refined oil in the Netherlands East Indies.[1][2] The company was 60 percent owned by the Royal Dutch Company, and 40% by the Shell Transport and Trading Company; it acted as a dutch holding company for the merged Royal Dutch Shell Group along with its UK analogue the Anglo-Saxon Petroleum Company. The two were merged in 2005 creating a single holding structure for Shell.[3]
