XOM

Exxon Mobil Corp

A multinational energy and chemical company that produces gasoline, diesel, aviation fuels, natural gas, and lubricants sold under the Exxon, Mobil, and Esso brands. Its roots trace to John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil, broken up by the Supreme Court in 1911; the 1999 merger of Exxon and Mobil reunited two of the largest successor companies. The name "Mobil" comes from "Mobiloil," a 1904 lubricant brand meant to evoke motion.
