ExxonMobil (XOM) Eyes $16B Earnings Surge by 2027 From Fuels
Read MoreHide Full Article
ExxonMobil Corporation (XOM - Free Report) , the largest U.S. oil company, announced that it expects its motor fuels and chemicals earnings to reach $16 billion by 2027, marking a notable $4-billion increase from the current level.
ExxonMobil executives, in a briefing at the company’s Spring, TX, headquarters, revealed their confidence in the sustained growth of demand for refined products and chemicals. This stands in contrast to recent projections by the International Energy Agency, which predicts a decline in the use of oil for transportation fuels post 2026.
According to senior VP Jack Williams, while gasoline demand is expected to reach its peak toward the end of the decade, it will plateau for a prolonged period.
XOM has made substantial investments in expanding its refining capacity, with a notable example being the 250,000 barrels per day expansion of its Beaumont, TX refinery in January, which highlights the company's commitment to meeting the rising demand.
The company's recent investment in its Baytown, TX refinery, co-located with a chemical unit, signals a move toward the production of chemicals. While refining remains a vital aspect of ExxonMobil's operations, a significant portion of its efforts will be directed toward the chemicals sector.
Karen McKee, president of the Product Solutions unit, believes that XOM's merged refining, petrochemicals and low-carbon business unit could be a "game changer" for the company.
