ExxonMobil (XOM) Begins Daily Operations at Texas Oil Refinery
Read MoreHide Full Article
Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM - Free Report) has fully recommenced operations at the oil refinery in Beaumont, TX, and is carrying out production at a planned output rate, per Bloomberg.
The Beaumont refinery processes nearly 369,024 barrels of crude oil per day and manufactures 2.8 billion gallons of gasoline yearly.
As the North American winter storm created turmoil in energy markets, various commodity sectors — including the oil refining industry — were forced to shut down oil and gas operations.
Refineries and pipeline operators throughout the Gulf Coast had to limit or even cease activities in Texas due to immensely cold temperatures. The extreme conditions led the company to slash fuel production from one of the largest energy centres globally. As a result, ExxonMobil sealed the Beaumont refinery near Houston, which it plans to expand by 2023.
Per Reuters, ExxonMobil restarted the 560K barrels-per-day hydrocracker at the Baytown refinery on the Texas Gulf coast. In addition, it resumed work on the Pipestill 7 crude distillation unit, which was the first to be restarted since the Baytown refinery closure. Importantly, fellow operator like TOTAL SE is also preparing to restart work on the Port Arthur refinery in Houston, which had to be shut down owing to the major storm.
Company Profile & Price Performance
Headquartered in Irving, TX, ExxonMobil is one of the leading integrated energy companies in the world.
The company’s shares have outperformed the industry in the past three months. Its stock has gained 43.6% compared with the industry’s 19.4% rally.
Zacks Rank & Other Stocks to Consider
The company currently flaunts a Zack Rank #2 (Buy).
Ovintiv’s earnings for 2021 are expected to increase 8.1% year over year.
Pembina’s earnings for 2021 are expected to rise 6.8% year over year.
Time to Invest in Legal Marijuana
If you’re looking for big gains, there couldn’t be a better time to get in on a young industry primed to skyrocket from $17.7 billion back in 2019 to an expected $73.6 billion by 2027.
After a clean sweep of 6 election referendums in 5 states, pot is now legal in 36 states plus D.C. Federal legalization is expected soon and that could be a still greater bonanza for investors. Even before the latest wave of legalization, Zacks Investment Research has recommended pot stocks that have shot up as high as +285.9%
