2 ExxonMobil in Norway 2016

The company’s headquarters are located at Forus in Sandnes municipality, from where all offshore exploration and production activities are coordinated. ExxonMobil’s marketing activities are operated from the Skøyen office in Oslo, while the refinery is located at Slagentangen in Tønsberg. ExxonMobil is one of the largest non-Norwegian oil and gas producers on the Norwegian Continental Shelf, holding ownership interests in over 20 producing oil and gas fields. ExxonMobil operates Balder, Jotun, Ringhorne, and Sigyn fields. Total ExxonMobil production in Norway in 2015 reached around 233,000 oil equivalent (o.e.) barrels per day – which corresponds to near 6 percent of the total

Norwegian production and almost 6 percent of ExxonMobil’s production worldwide.

The refinery at Slagentangen has a processing capacity of 6 million tons of crude oil per year, and its production is based on crude oil from the North Sea. ExxonMobil has a market share of approx. 20 percent of total Norwegian sales of oil products. The company markets both Esso and Mobil branded products. The number of petrol stations is around 250.

ExxonMobil is Norway’s oldest energy company – established in 1893. The company is the only integrated oil and gas company in Norway with the complete value chain.

ExxonMobil in Norway includes several companies – i.a. Esso Norge AS, ExxonMobil Exploration and Production Norway AS, and ExxonMobil Production Norway Inc. – all of which are affiliates of Exxon Mobil Corporation in the USA. Esso Norge AS is involved in upstream and downstream activities in Norway. In this brochure we use the term ExxonMobil when referring to the companies’ activities in Norway.

Exxon Mobil Corporation is the world’s largest publicly traded international oil and gas company. Founded in 1882, it is also one of the oldest industrial corporations in the world. The ExxonMobil Group employs around 73,500 people working all over the world. Turnover in 2015 reached USD 269 billion.

Financially strong – long-term perspectiveExxon Mobil Corporation’s net income in 2015 reached almost USD 16.1 billion, with a 7.9 percent return on average capital employed. The company’s total oil and gas production was 4.1 million oil-equivalent barrels per day. ExxonMobil’s leading position in the energy market is based on its long term outlook of worldwide economic growth and energy. The company is continually making large investments, independent of the ups and downs in the industry. In addition to our continued investments in conventional oil and gas production, ExxonMobil is also making significant investments in the develop-ment of oil sands, Arctic and deepwater production, and unconventional oil and gas resources.

Future Energy Outlook The world’s population is expected to increase from 7 billion today to 9 billion in 2040. In parallel, ExxonMobil project that the world’s need for energy will have a 25 percent rise in the period from 2014 to 2040. The increase corresponds to a total of twice the annual energy consumption in Europe in 2014.

This is one of the main conclusions in the company’s Outlook for Energy, a report that projects the company’s long-term, global need for and access to energy. In addition to the effect of a future population increase, the potential for vast improvements in the modern way of life will contribute to a strong rise in energy consumption. Over 1 billion people do not have access to electricity, and 2.7 billion are still dependent on bio mass to heat their meals.

ExxonMobil’s Energy Outlook, which is very much aligned with the analysis from the International Energy Agency (IEA), projects oil, natural gas and coal – the three main energy resources that developed modern economy – to cover 80 percent of energy demand in 2040. However, the urgency to reduce carbon emissions will contribute to increase gas consumption as a replacement for coal, and increase the need for renewable sources such as nuclear, wind, solar and bio fuels.

Development of new technologiesAs the energy landscape evolves, energy choices must continue to meet a range of consumer requirements in terms of affordability, performance,

and convenience, while also managing potential associated effects on the environment. Recent technological advances have ushered in a new era of energy abundance and diversity. Improvements in exploration and production technologies continue to help us identify oil and gas reservoirs, increase productivity, and lower costs.

For the next decades, oil is expected to remain the largest global energy source as supplies increase from deepwater, tight oil, and oil sands resources. Natural gas supply represents the largest component of growth in aggregate energy supply, driven by unconventional resources. Nuclear and renewable sources will likely have the highest growth rates, becoming more prominent sources of energy in many countries.

New energy efficient technology and innovative processes need to be developed. ExxonMobil employs more than 19.000 scientists and engineers, and more than 2.200 Ph.Ds. Exxon Mobil Corporation has since 2000, invested around USD 9 billion in research, development and technology application. Of this amount nearly 7 billion is spent on technology to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including on energy efficiency, cogeneration, flare reduction, carbon capture and sequestration, and research on lower-emission energy solutions. Our research has given the company a competitive edge in business areas like exploration, oil and gas production, project development, and in the refining and chemicals industries.

ExxonMobil takes the environmental challenge seriouslyExxonMobil’s corporate citizenship approach focuses on addressing the challenge of sustainability – balancing

ExxonMobil operates the Ringhorne, Balder, Jotun and Sigyn fields on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS). Total daily production from these fields in 2015 was 64,000 barrels of o.e.

ExxonMobil has been an active exploration player since 1965, when Esso Exploration Norway Inc. was awarded the first three exploration licenses on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS).

Exploration

Production – Operated fields

BalderThe Balder field is developed with a floating production, storage, and offloading vessel (FPSO) and several subsea production systems. The field is located in the North Sea, approximately 190 km northwest of Stavanger. The Ringhorne platform is tied back to the Balder FPSO for processing and export. Balder exports gas to Statpipe via the production vessel, Jotun A.

Numerous upgrades to the Balder FPSO process and compression systems have been carried out during the last few years, resulting in significantly improved reliability. In 2015 the Balder FPSO processed 48,000 barrels of oil per day; 33,000 barrels from the Balder field and 15,000 barrels from the Ringhorne field.

Seismic surveys in the Balder area were carried out in 2009 and in 2012 to prepare for a drilling campaign, which commenced in the first quarter of 2013 using the semi-submersible drilling unit “West Alpha”. Until now, 6 new wells have been put into production, which has boosted production significantly. The drilling program has continued into 2016, and new wells will increase production.

ExxonMobil is the operator and has 100 percent ownership in the Balder field.

Ringhorne The Ringhorne field is located about 9 km north of the Balder FPSO and includes a platform with initial processing and water injection capabilities. Production is routed to the Balder and Jotun installations for final processing, storage and offloading.

Production commenced in February 2003. After production start-up two discoveries in the western and eastern part of the field were included. The latter became on-stream in 2006. In 2015 the Ringhorne field produced an average of 22,000 barrels of oil per day.

ExxonMobil is the operator and has 100 percent ownership in the Ringhorne field, except for Ringhorne East where ExxonMobil’s equity is 77.4 percent. The other Ringhorne East partners are Statoil (14.8 percent) and Faroe Petroleum (7.8 percent).

50 years of exploration activities have resulted in many oil and gas discoveries, both as an operator and license partner. The success can be explained by the use of advanced, exploration technology, highly qualified employees, and access to ExxonMobil’s worldwide technical expertise.

economic growth, social development and environmental protection. The company acknowledges the necessity to work towards a global aim of reducing foot-print, a focus ExxonMobil includes in our own operations in the countries and environments we operate in. Responsible energy development – critical to social and economic progress – also requires a commitment to protect the environment. Our environmental stewardship processes are based on detailed analyses that include environmental and social impact assessments.

The climate convention in Paris in 2015 contributed to an international focus on reducing carbon emissions in order to manage the climate change risk. Both people and countries look for practical solutions to reduce emissions, along with continued

JotunThe Jotun field is developed with two installations; a wellhead platform (Jotun B), which transfers resources to production vessel Jotun A. The field is located in the North Sea, 200 km west of Stavanger. The average production rate in 2015 was 1,600 oil equivalent barrels per day. Jotun production has been on the decline over the last few years, thus resulting in spare production capacity. In order to utilize this capacity, Balder has been connected to Jotun via a gas pipeline, while pipelines were installed between Ringhorne and Jotun thereafter, allowing parts of the Ringhorne field to produce to the Jotun FPSO, in addition to the Balder FPSO.

In 2015 Ringhorne sent an average of 6,400 barrels of oil per day to Jotun for final processing and storage prior to export. In addition 11 million standard cubic feet per day (MCFD) of gas was exported to Jotun from Balder and Ringhorne for further gas export to Statpipe. As operator of the Jotun field, ExxonMobil has 90 percent ownership interests. Other partners are Det norske (7 percent) and Faroe Petroleum (3 percent).

In 2012, modifications were made to the Jotun facilities to tie-in the Jette field. Production from Jette commenced in spring 2013, and Det norske oljeselskap, operator of Jette, has entered into a production handling agreement with ExxonMobil.

SigynThe Sigyn field, which is located in the Sleipner area in the North Sea, commenced production in 2002. The field consists of two gas/condensate producers and one oil producer that are connected to the Sleipner A platform via a subsea template. In 2015, the average production on Sigyn was 18 million standard cubic feet of gas per day and 2,400 barrels of condensate per day.

ExxonMobil is the operator with 40 percent ownership. The other license partner is Statoil (60 percent).

ExxonMobil has participated in many discoveries on the Norwegian shelf, also throughout the last years. The discoveries are located near existing producing fields, and the time period from discovery to production has therefore been short.

access to affordable and reliable energy. Many countries have already reduced their CO2 emissions relative to the GDP, as a result of energy efficiency and transition to less carbon intensive energy sources.

ExxonMobil’s analyses expect global energy related emissions of CO2 to reach its highest around 2030, for then to reduce. Emissions in OECD is anticipated to decline aligned with 20 percent reduction from 2014 to 2040. In countries with economic growth and carbon intensive energy mix based on coal, emissions will continue to rise – such as China where peak emissions are expected in 2030.

ExxonMobil’s refinery at Slagentangen near Tønsberg, inaugurated in 1961, is located in a sheltered location by the Oslo Fjord.

ExxonMobil markets products both under the Esso and Mobil brands through a nationwide chain of around 250 retail service stations, of which 14 are automated stations under the name Esso Express. At 107 sites NorgesGruppen is the operator of store concepts and car wash facilities.

ExxonMobil has ownership interests in over 20 producing fields on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS), which are operated by others (Statoil and Shell). ExxonMobil’s net production from these fields per day in 2015 was about 177,000 o.e. barrels.

Refining and logistics

Marketing

Production – Fields Operated By Others (OBO)

The refinery processes crude oil, mainly from the North Sea, into fuel products for consumption and industrial purposes. The annual processing capacity is 6 million tons of crude oil. The production of petroleum products represent more than half of Norway’s total consumption. The lightest products are propane and butane, followed by petrol, kerosene, diesel and light fuel oil. The heaviest product is heavy oil. The Slagentangen refinery produces of course sulphur free diesel (less than 10 ppm sulphur), which is a prerequisite for modern, environmentally friendly cars with catalyst treatment of exhaust gases.

In 2007, the refinery installed a plant for blending of biodiesel. It supplies diesel with up to 7 percent blend of a bio component based on rapeseed oil. This low blend biodiesel may be used by all diesel cars without causing engine trouble, nor is it in conflict with guarantees given by the car manufacturers. As of January 2016, in order to comply with increased legally mandated bio portion, Slagen blends ethanol into Mogas, in accordance with car manufacturers’ specifications. The refinery is also in the process of building a new process unit for the upgrading of

heavy fuel oil, which will increase the value of the Slagen product portfolio.

Approximately 60 percent of the refinery ’s production of petroleum products are exported, which makes the refinery one of Norway’s largest onshore export businesses. All crude oil and around 90 percent of the total production is offloaded and loaded at the jetty, which can receive ships up to 190.000 ton deadweight. Every year around 700 ships call on the port.

The Slagentangen office also manages the Supply, Transportation and Distribution businesses. Transportation & Supply conduct all ExxonMobil’s trade of crude oil and petroleum products, both refinery production and production from the fields in the North Sea. The Distribution department manages the company’s three main storage terminals located in Fredrikstad, Bergen and Trondheim, and the refinery ’s truck loading facilities.

ExxonMobil’s sales organization serves the wholesale segment directly. The end user segment is partly based on sales directly to customers, and partly through Esso Energi AS and other dealers. All kinds of products are sold, but there is a special focus on low sulphur and environmentally friendly heating products. The company will continue its major focus on the private residential market. In the Marine segment, ExxonMobil is an active marketer of low sulphur heavy fuel oil, which meets the ECA-specifications and is produced at the Slagentangen refinery.

ExxonMobil is also an important player in the lubes and special products markets. Our scientifically manufactured synthetic quality lubricants are

marketed mainly under the brands Mobil 1, Mobil Delvac 1 and Mobil SHC for the passenger car, heavy duty vehicle and industrial segments respectively. ExxonMobil is selling lubricants and special products both directly to commercial customers and through selective distributors and partners.

ExxonMobil has an overall market share of 21 percent for petroleum products in the segments it serves.*

*Based on data from Statistics Norway.

Åsgard Subsea Compression project started up late 2015, which was a significant milestone reflecting new technology that can be important for further development on the NCS.

The company participates in finalization of the Ormen Lange Onshore Compression Project at Nyhamna, and several larger projects near existing fields, e.g. Trestakk, Snorre Expansion Project and GRAND, in the Grane area.

In 2015 ExxonMobil participated in around 25 production and injection wells, including two exploration wells.

The systematic work on safety, health and environment has continued also in 2015.

Safety, health and environment

ExxonMobil’s overall environmental objectives include: • zero acute pollution • maintain zero harmful discharges to sea • reduce emissions to air • achieve high segregation of waste • minimize the risk of undesirable environmental

incidents • efficient use of energy

Environment - Exploration and Production 2015 A series of measures continued to maintain discharges to sea at the ExxonMobil operated fields at a minimum level. Among other things, the Jotun, Balder and Ringhorne fields have been designed with solutions for discharging produced water and drilling waste through injection back into the ground. Substituting chemicals with more environmentally friendly alternatives have also made it possible to further reduce environmental risks of discharges to sea.

Regarding emissions to air, ExxonMobil focuses on reducing the emissions of CO2, NOx, CH4 and other volatile organic compounds (nmVOC). ExxonMobil has participated in CO2 quota trading since 2008, and also in 2015 quotas were bought for all CO2 emissions.

All of ExxonMobil’s operated licenses on the Norwegian Continental Shelf have participated in the Business Sector’s NOx Fund. The fund was established in 2008 to support the implementation of cost-effective measures in order to reduce NOx emissions across all business sectors. The fund is financed by companies contributing based on the size of their own NOx emissions. All of the four diesel generators at Balder have been modified to low NOx operation, and the costs of this have partially been financed by the NOx Fund.

The nmVOC recovery facilities regarding storage of oil on the Balder and Jotun production vessels have had an efficiency of 98 and 100 percent. Cooperation with other operators to ensure efficient reduction of emissions to air of nmVOC in relation to offshore oil loading to shuttle tankers has continued in 2015.

Systematic sorting and handling of waste are performed on all ExxonMobil’s operated offshore installations. All installations met the 2015 objective of minimum 75% of all waste to be sorted.

SafetyIn the Upstream business, we have maintained a good safety performance and avoided serious personnel injuries. The number of minor injuries continues to be at a very low level. Our main priority is to avoid serious incidents, and one of the main tools for this is our “Life Saving Actions”. These are related to activities with higher risk exposure, which historically have led to serious incidents. The tool describes necessary actions that must be identified in order to safely execute such activities. The program addresses seven areas, including energy isolation, working at heights, crane and lifting operations, etc. All employees receive training in the requirements of “Life Saving Actions” and must have a fundamental understanding of these. In addition, there are initiatives to raise awareness on how important it is to maintain barriers to prevent incidents from happening, improve learning from global ExxonMobil incidents and industry in general. Although the Upstream organization has not experienced any serious incidents in recent years, the potential for this is always present, underling the importance of this preventive effort.

For several years we have had an objective to improve our overall safety culture. Three key drivers for this were identified: leadership, good safety tools and alignment with contractors. The program has been strengthened every year through improve-ments of the basic safety tools. Based on the strong results that have been achieved so far, the program will be continued also in the years to come.

Also Refining, Supply and Distribution have introduced systematic efforts to reduce the probability for high potential incidents. We have developed a well-established system for reporting and analyzing incidents that are typical to cause major incidents. Our Loss Prevention System (LPS) has been effective since 1999. The system is an important tool to further develop our safety culture. An important aspect is to mobilize employees and contractors to actively participate in identifying and reporting hazards

Environment - Refining 2015 The refinery experienced two onshore discharges above 160 liters in 2015. An exceedance of our discharge permit to sea in regards to concentrations of oil and ammonia and oil. The deviations have been reported to the authorities. Other emissions to air and discharges to sea were within the permit limits. Relevant emission figures and environmental focus areas for the refinery are further described in the annual status report “Miljø og samfunnsansvar” (in Norwegian).

International comparisons show that the ExxonMobil refinery at Slagentangen is one of the most energy efficient refineries in the world. Since the early 1990s, the refinery has implemented internal measures to save energy, and the use of energy today is 25 percent more efficient than it was in 1990. The reason why CO2 emissions nevertheless have increased during this time period is mainly due to new environmental requirements to products e.g. increased desulphurization. Furthermore, the refinery has increased its processing capacity for crude oil. The refinery at Slagentangen has low emissions of CO2 compared to other refineries’ emissions in Europe.

Key activities/focus areas in 2015:• A full day safety awareness session for all

daytime employees and site contractors first week of January 2015

• A risk tolerance program with the intention to improve risk perception and tolerance among all employees and contractors.

• Implement LPS (Loss Prevention System) across the site.

The refinery had three lost time injuries in 2015, whereof two from contractors. Although the injury potential was limited on all of these, this is a disappointing result. The company places great emphasis on learning from incidents, and these incidents are subject to thorough scrutiny and associated corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

Marketing experienced no incidents involving any injuries in 2015.

HealthHealth and Working Environment is governed by management systems in line with regulations and internal guidelines. This involves a systematic identification and monitoring of the physical working environment and other exposure conditions. Employees with potential occupational illness or exposed to health hazards, are especially monitored. Preventing MSDs for office employees is a high priority. The departments have trained ergonomic contacts who can advise on properly adapted workplace and computer equipment.

ExxonMobil’s statistics for sick leave in Norway has for many years been low. In 2015 average sickness was 2.3 percent, which is significantly lower than the national average.

Environment The environmental program of ExxonMobil in Norway is fully integrated with the planning process and execution of all activities. The environmental management system, which is aligned with the international standard ISO 14001, is designed to ensure systematic and continuous improvement within the environmental area.

Cooperation with “Ungt Entreprenørskap” (JA – Junior Achievement) on mathematics and scienceAs part of ExxonMobil’s global initiative for the promotion of STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education, the company has cooperated with the organization JA Europe since 2010. Together we have developed a pan-European program for the purpose of motivating upper secondary pupils to opt for scientific subjects. In the US, ExxonMobil has for several years successfully run a similar project, the aim of which is to attract attention to the significance of mathematics, natural science and technological skills in our society. Ten European countries currently participate in the project.

Cooperation on the teaching of geoscience For several years, ExxonMobil has cooperated with St. Olav upper secondary school in Stavanger on geoscience. Geoscientists from our company have contributed in the creation of an educational program partly based on authentic data from one of the company’s fields in the North Sea. The pupils work on a project to be presented to ExxonMobil professionals, for which they receive an award.

Museums Science centers are experiential centers of popular science, which aim is to stimulate the interest of children and young people in technology and natural science, by means of activating and inspiring methods. ExxonMobil provides annual operational support to the Science Factory in the municipality of Sandnes, and to the Norwegian Petroleum Museum in Stavanger. In addition, the company has donated both a “laser fussball game” and a “ScreamOmeter” to the Science Factory. ExxonMobil has also provided technical and financial support to a new exhibition on oil and gas at the Technical Museum in Oslo, which opened in the spring of 2014 in collaboration with the trade association Norwegian Oil and Gas.

Title sponsor of ExxonMobil Bislett Games ExxonMobil is in 2016 the title sponsor of ExxonMobil Bislett Games for the 29th time, an international track and field event in Oslo. Featuring in the Diamond League series, it renders Norway an

important nation in the world of athletics, strengthening at the same time its position with the public in our country. In addition to financial support, the event provides an opportunity to raise awareness in the fight against malaria.

Cooperation with the Norwegian Red Cross in the fight against malaria ExxonMobil and the Norwegian Red Cross have for several years cooperated on the athletics event at Bislett Stadium to collect funds to combat malaria. Since 2011 we have together organized the relay contest ‘Race Against Malaria’ in Oslo, where participating companies have paid a starting fee to fund the Red Cross malaria work. During 2012– 2014 ExxonMobil provided earmarked funding in support of a pilot project by the Norwegian Red Cross to apply mobile phone technology for surveying and measuring results from the distribution of insecticidal nets in several countries in Africa. ExxonMobil is the world’s largest non-pharmaceutical contributor in the fight against malaria.

Main sponsor of the athletic clubs Sandnes Idrettslag and IL Skjalg In order to support recruitment and wide partici-pation in local athletics, the company has been the main sponsor of Skjalg Friidrett in Stavanger and Sandnes IL Friidrett for several years, where the main focus is the promotion of young, talented athletes.

Flint fotball (soccer club)After having been a sponsor of the Esso Cup arranged by Flint Fotball in Tønsberg for several years, the company extended its commitment in Flint Fotball in 2014 to support among other things the building of a new club house. The club has more than 90 teams in different leagues and has a wide-ranging offer to all age groups including active talent development.

Domkirken Musikk, Stavanger A significant part of the activities of the Cathedral of Stavanger and its traditions of choral singing and concerts boast a long history. ExxonMobil supports the five Cathedral choirs with the aim to create high quality church music for the enrichment of services and concert experiences.

ExxonMobil contributes to society in many ways through significant taxes, investments, creation of jobs, participation in development and technology research projects, sharing knowledge and providing local societies with development opportunities. Furthermore, we contribute financially to local communities through our contribution to sports, culture, education and social activities.
