Quek Chin Thean, a former BP Plc head of commodities trading who’s being sued for misusing confidential information to help rival Shenzhen Brightoil Group, has denied any wrongdoing in papers filed at a Singapore court.

“I have never at any time during my employment with BP compromised BP’s interests,” Quek said in the papers filed with the Singapore High Court on July 29.
