The Labour leader, Ed Miliband, has voiced concern over BP's deal with Russian energy firm Rosneft.
A deal was signed on Friday to exploit potentially huge deposits of oil and gas in Russia's Arctic shelf.
Environmental campaigners have criticised the plans, with Greenpeace saying BP had learned nothing from its failures in last year's Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico.
Mr Miliband said finding alternative forms of energy was the way ahead.
