ExxonMobil faces the honest realities of the energy industry

At ExxonMobil, we devote substantial resources and effort to recognizing, analyzing, and understanding these long-term dynamics. Though we never claim an ability to predict the future, we are always working to identify and analyze the trends and issues most likely to affect the long-term world energy environment. Through this effort, we develop a planning framework based on what we see as the outlook for energy.

To ensure that we have enough energy in the coming years, we need to avoid wishful thinking. We need to face the energy future realistically and be committed to steps that will address energy issues in practical ways. In my view, it is important for each of us to consider the consequences if we fail to meet the world’s need for safe, affordable, and reliable energy.
