...ExxonMobil Analysis Metra Walthour American Public University System ExxonMobil is an American established gas and oil firm that has a head office in the metropolis of Irving, Texas. Even though it is American established and holds its head office in Texas, it is additionally a multinational firm that is recognized and utilized worldwide. The Exxon Firm was instituted in the year of 1934 across the mergence of the Average Oil Firm of New Jersey and the Anglo-American Oil Company. Even though these two firms joined in 1934, the name and company of Exxon did not come about until 1972. Exxon Mobil was instituted afterward, in 1999, alongside the mergence of Exxon and Mobil. ExxonMobil is an extremely prosperous firm, generally because “it is the third biggest firm by revenue and the subsequent biggest openly traded firm by marketplace backing in the world.” (Nagurney, 2010) An example of how big and successful ExxonMobil is, is lead by its largest shareholder, which happens to be the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. “The company is ranked No. 5 globally in 2013. ExxonMobil’s reserves were 72 billion BOE (barrels of oil equivalent) at the end of 2007 and, at then rates of production, were expected to last over 14 years. With 37 oil refineries in 21 countries constituting a combined daily refining capacity of 6.3 million barrels, ExxonMobil is the largest refiner in the world, a title that was also associated with Standard Oil...

...Exxon Mobil External Analysis By: Travis Smith, James McKiernan, Tom Johnson, and Peter Ackley Analysis of the industry This industry is controlled by several large corporations, and many smaller organizations. It is difficult to enter into this market because of the high entry barriers. There are many small exploration companies that contract out to the big players of this industry such as ExxonMobil and the members of the strategic group. Some small exploration companies are Continental Energy Corporation, Atlantic Petroleum, and Anadarko Petroleum Corporation. Anadarko Petroleum Corporation works hand in hand with Beyond Petroleum, and was indirectly involved with the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The members of Exxon’s strategic group consist of Beyond Petroleum, Conoco Phillips, and Chevron. These members are a part of the strategic group because they explore, produce, refine and market oil and gas. A reason why we didn’t pick Royal Dutch Shell is because we found that they have a joint venture with Exxon Mobil. With the recent hunches of more regulation in the oil industry, these corporations are investing in natural gas companies. In order for these companies to remain competitive they need to always be innovative and creative. This is another reason why we picked these three members as a part of the strategic group. Conoco Phillips is the smallest one in the strategic group bringing in only $16.99 million in net income at the end of 2008 (ConocoPhillips, 2008)...

...largest economy within the region just behind Indonesia and Thailand which is more populated than Malaysia and also 29th largest economy in the world[1]. It is also the largest Islamic banking and financial centre in the world. Malaysia was once a country well known with a big variety of natural resources available, from timber, tin, natural gas, petroleum and many more. However, timber may only contribute only a small part to Malaysia’s economy today as a result of government’s intervention in order to protect the environment after serious erosion problem due to massive expansion of the timber industry during the 1960s. Petroleum and natural gas however, are still currently the backbone for the economy of Malaysia, managed by PETRONAS along with a few foreign O&G companies such as ExxonMobil to explore oil fields in Malaysia. The importance of the industry in Malaysia is so significant that 45% of the government’s federal budget relies on PETRONAS dividend. As at 3rd September 2013, Malaysia has 4 billion barrels of oil barrels which is 24th of the world while having 83 trillion cubic feet of natural gas reserves is 15th largest natural gas reserve of the world[2]. Malaysia has an unemployment rate averaging to 3% within 2005-2013. Highest during 2009 which is post financial crisis at the unemployment rate of 3.7% and since then the rate has been lowered.

...INTRODUCTION: In late 70’s the world witnessed an emerging economic might of the globe with one of the world’s largest resource bank and human capital. China starting its journey in 1949 had started gaining pace and was bringing the biggest surprise to the world. However this was a long but yet to be accomplished journey. During the journey Chinese State-Owned Enterprises played a key role for the economic growth of China. And it was compulsory for the Chinese government to introduce market-Oriented reforms to this sector. These reforms actually caused the central government to lose its control over them and making the SOEs subjected to greater market control, independent entities & more checks and balances on the performance. However the targeted goals of SOE reforms are still to be achieved to make these SOEs the “modern enterprises”; a goal set by the government in 1990’s reforms era. However with the passage of time, it is becoming a challenge for the Chinese government to undertake furthermore market-oriented reforms, since China is facing challenges such as structural slowdown linked to diminishing working age population due to birth control policies and fading advantages of previous reforms. Keeping the fact as a major concern and consideration, the new Chinese leadership has started thinking and has agreed to fact that improved resource allocation is the key to high productivity out. This article is an effort to argue the China’s approach to redefine its SOEs along...
