Meaning and history
ExxonMobil is a joint project that appeared in 1998. Its main stakeholders were the two descendants of Standard Oil, Exxon, and Mobil. They signed a $73,7 million contract to found the ExxonMobil Corporation, which had instantly become the third-largest business with a total production of 2,5 million barrels a day or $1 billion a year. The agreement came into force after the European Commission and the US FTC approved it in 1999.
In the new century, ExxonMobil has increased its oil production and launched new partnerships with international companies. Since the 2000s, the company has been setting up oil-producing plants in Iraq, including Rumalia and West Qurna. they also signed a deal confirming oil research and production in the Kurdistan region. All this allowed Exxon to start producing cheap plastic, synthetic tissues, lubricants, and medicals.
From 2011 to 2018, ExxonMobil maintained a line of strategic partnership activities with the Russian state-controlled oil company Rosneft to develop oil fields in the Black Sea and the Kara Sea. However, due to the 2018 international sanctions affecting Rosneft, the American oil refinery giant had to finish most of the joint projects with Russians.
A line of other projects, acquisitions, and partnerships took place in Australia (2012), Hong Kong (2013), and Venezuela (2014).
Now, Exxon is a large oil supplier, controlling 21 huge plants across the globe, with a total production of 5 million BPD and revenue of $276.692 billion.
