This excerpt taken from the BP 20-F filed Mar 4, 2008. 28 Financial instruments
and financial risk factors continued
The table below shows cash outflows for derivative hedging instruments based upon contractual payment dates. The amounts reflect the maturity profile of the fair value liability where the instruments will be settled net, and the gross settlement amount where the pay leg of a derivative will be settled separately to the receive leg, as in the case of cross-currency interest rate swaps hedging non-US dollar finance debt. The swaps are with high investment-grade counterparties and therefore the settlement day risk exposure is considered to be negligible.
