DENVER — Oil and gas company BP says it will move headquarters staff from Houston to Denver because of the region’s importance as an energy hub.

CEO David Lawler said Wednesday that there are increasing business opportunities in the Rockies, where the company has about two-thirds of its oil and natural gas production and proven reserves. The company said it will initially have at least 200 employees at the new Denver office.
