:::Exxon buys Mobil for a reported $76 billion, a transaction that is expected to reshape the global oil industry. The deal creates the worlds largest energy company, surpassing the Royal Dutch / Shell Group. Exxon is the biggest U.S. oil company and Mobil is the second. The merged company, to be called Exxon Mobil Corp., will have an estimated 22% of the U.S. gasoline market and refine more oil than any other company in the world. It would reportedly have oil and gas reserves of 20 billion barrels. The terms of the deal indicate that Exxon shareholders will own 70% of the new entity. The companies have said that they will retain both brands. Initial announcements report that corporate headquarters will be in Irving, Texas. Worldwide downstream headquarters will be in Fairfax, Virginia; upstream and chemical headquarters will be in Houston, Texas.

--- Begin Message --- Here ya go tard. You can stop ROTFLMAO now. Amsoil is manufactured in house. You also proved my point... Exxon owns Mobil or Mobil owns Exxon. There is only one company and you are left with two names; one is a manufacturer and one has become merely a marketed name. Like I said before, I'm not 100% sure if Mobil is the owner or a marketing name now. I don't use Amsoil but I buy Castrol cheap at Costco which is merely a marketed name, probably made by Exxon or Mobil or Amsoil. Just stop before you look even more stupid Tommy.
ClayThank you for your question (s).
All AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants are manufactured at our corporate headquarter in Superior, Wisconsin. We currently do not know where
Castrol is packaging their products.We hope this is helpful,

operations around the world have merged their operations. There is
only one company now. It would be reasonable to assume that some of
the operations will be redundant in nature and end up being sold off
- - clearly in the retail end of things, having a Mobil station right
across the street from an Exxon station won't make much sense from a
business perspective.Do you guys really not read newspapers? None of this is a secret.
