ExxonMobil was formed by the 1999 Exxon-Mobil merger, but its lineage runs back to Standard Oil. The modern company is one of the world's largest publicly traded integrated energy companies, with a strategy built around advantaged hydrocarbons and selective low-carbon adjacencies.
ExxonMobil makes money through upstream oil and gas production, refining and fuels, petrochemicals, specialty products, lubricants, trading and optimization, and emerging low-carbon solutions. Integration lets the company shift value across production, processing, logistics, and product markets.
