Apart from BP, the net income of major oil and gas companies in the first quarter of 2025 decreased across the board. However, all companies were able to turn a profit this quarter despite economic uncertainty and lower than expected crude prices. Saudi Aramco continues to dominate the sector, with net earnings exceeding ** billion U.S. dollars. This performance underscores the continued financial strength of state-owned oil enterprises in a volatile global energy market. State-owned giants lead production and profits Saudi Aramco's financial dominance is rooted in its unparalleled production output. The company extracts approximately **** million barrels of crude oil and associated liquids per day, more than ***** times that of its closest competitor. This vast output dwarfs that of shareholder-owned companies like ExxonMobil, which produces around ***** million barrels daily. The scale of state-controlled oil companies extends beyond production to reserves as well, with Saudi Aramco holding nearly *** billion barrels of proved hydrocarbon reserves in 2023, over ** times ExxonMobil's reported reserves. Shifting strategies in a changing industry As the oil and gas sector faces pressure to adapt to climate concerns, companies are diversifying their portfolios. Shell has maintained the highest brand value among oil and gas companies, estimated at **** billion U.S. dollars in 2024, partly due to its increased focus on low-carbon investments. TotalEnergies is leading the supermajors in capital expenditure on renewables and other low-carbon sources, spending *** billion U.S. dollars in 2024. In contrast, ExxonMobil allocated just **** billion U.S. dollars to such initiatives, while Saudi Aramco's low-carbon investments remain limited to blue ammonia production and solar project investments.

In 2024, the total revenue of the United States’ oil and gas industry came to ******billion U.S. dollars. That was a decrease from the previous year, when U.S. oil and gas reached *** billion U.S. dollars. Figures peaked in 2022 as a result of decade-high oil and gas prices. The advent of shale oil and gas Following the financial crisis, investors in the U.S. sought to increase domestic production and reduce dependence on foreign oil and gas in turbulent international markets. Despite high start-up costs, shale gas and tight oil became economically viable to extract as the result of new methods such as hydraulic fracturing (also known as fracking). Production expanded rapidly in states with large permeable rock formations of sandstone, such as Texas and North Dakota. Changes in future shale production In addition to global market developments that impact short-term demand and prices, the trajectory of gross output in the oil and gas extraction industry largely precipitates the changes in U.S. oil revenue seen here. Going forward, production of U.S. shale gas and tight oil is expected to see only a moderate increase until 2050.

ExxonMobil reported a net income of over ** billion U.S. dollars in 2024. The only year in the period of consideration that ExxonMobil ended the year on a net loss was in 2020.

ExxonMobil's origin story ExxonMobil is a United States-based oil and gas company founded in 1999 through the merger of two companies and is considered one of the Big Oil supermajors. Headquartered in Texas, it has been one of the world’s largest oil and gas companies based on net income. Like its competitors Marathon Petroleum and Chevron, ExxonMobil is derived from John D. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil Company, the first U.S. oil monopoly, which was declared illegal and subsequently dissolved in 1911. ExxonMobil's net income by segment ExxonMobil is made up of three divisions: upstream, product solutions (combining downstream and chemical), and low-carbon solutions. In previous years, more than half of the company's net income came from their upstream segment, which consists of oil exploration, shipping, extraction, and wholesale operations. By comparison, their product solutions segment consists of marketing, refining, and retail operations for petroleum, chemical, and specialty products.

ExxonMobil ranks first among the United States' top ten oil and gas producing companies based on market capitalization. As of June 18, 2025, the Texas-based oil supermajor had a market cap of ****** billion U.S. dollars. ExxonMobil can not only trace its roots back to the early years of commercial oil production, it has also become one of the largest oil and gas companies in the world. It is active in all areas of the supply chain, from hydrocarbon extraction to retailing of gasoline. What is market cap? As opposed to sales or assets, market capitalization is a metric used to determine a company’s size by the worth of their outstanding shares on the stock market. ExxonMobil often ranks as the leading oil and gas company based on market cap worldwide. However, its net income is often significantly lower than that of state-owned entities such as Saudi Aramco. The differing ratios exemplify how market cap is not a hard figure like net profits, but inflates and fluctuates according to the perceived value of a company, influenced by less quantifiable factors. The role of oil and gas in the world economy The oil and gas industry is involved in exploration, extraction, refining, transport, and marketing of hydrocarbons. Many industries are extremely dependent on oil and gas products, mostly in the form of fuels or raw materials for chemical products. The oil and gas industry is one of the largest worldwide, and it would follow that companies involved within the industry are among the top companies worldwide by revenue.
