BP Plc said its Ula oil field off Norway, shut down following an oil leak, won’t start again until after an internal investigation has been completed.

“Production will not be resumed until the causes of the incident have been clarified and the conditions rectified,” Jan Erik Geirmo, a spokesman for BP, said today in a statement. “It is too early to comment on volumes and possible cause.”
