LONDON/NEW YORK - BP is seeking to form joint ventures around its U.S. onshore natural gas fields to expand production and cut costs as rival energy giants rush to scale up shale businesses, three sources with direct knowledge of the talks told Reuters.

The ventures could cover pieces of land of varying sizes, and would not have to be everything BP has within the basin. By pursuing joint ventures, BP can achieve growth ambitions while avoiding spending billions on acquisitions. However, agreeing on the value of the combined assets and how to divide the venture's ownership are among the hurdles BP would have to clear with potential partners, the sources said.

BP aims to sharply slash greenhouse gas emissions and grow renewable and low-carbon energy businesses in the coming decades.
