Russian bailiffs search BP's Moscow office in $3 billion shareholder lawsuit



-snip-

The search is connected with a lawsuit in a Siberian court. Andrei Prokhorov, an obscure minority shareholder of BP's Russian venture TNK-BP, is suing the British oil giant for allowing an Arctic exploration deal with the Russian state-owned energy firm Rosneft to fall through. Prokhorov is seeking some $3 billion in damages. He said his interests were harmed as TNK-BP could have benefited from becoming part of the deal.

Renaissance Capital investment bank vice president Ovanes Oganisian described the Russians in TNK-BP and BP's management in Russia as "seasoned players of conflict management" who "know what they're doing."
