ExxonMobil and Chevron Report Record Profits Amid Refinery Supply Disruptions
US oil companies ExxonMobil and Chevron reported record quarterly profits driven by high refining margins amid supply disruptions caused by conflicts in Iran and Ukraine. Both firms are operating refineries at full capacity and investing in expanding and upgrading facilities to meet increased fuel demand. The disruptions, including refinery attacks and reduced output in Russia, Iran, and China, have tightened global fuel supplies, with analysts expecting normalization to take until next year or longer.
