Statements of future events or conditions in this report, including projections, targets, expectations, estimates, and business plans, are forward-looking statements. Actual future results, including demand growth and energy mix; capacity growth; the impact of new technologies; capital expenditures; project plans, dates, costs, and capacities; resource additions, production rates, and resource recoveries; efficiency gains; cost savings; product sales; and financial results could differ materially due to, for example, changes in oil and gas prices or other market conditions affecting the oil and gas industry; reservoir performance; timely completion of development projects; war and other political or security disturbances; changes in law or government regulation; the actions of competitors and customers; unexpected technological developments; general economic conditions, including the occurrence and duration of economic recessions; the outcome of commercial negotiations; unforeseen technical difficulties; unanticipated operational disruptions; and other factors discussed in this report and in Item 1A of ExxonMobil’s most recent Form 10-K. Definitions of certain financial and operating measures and other terms used in this report are contained in the section titled “Frequently Used Terms” on pages 90 through 93. In the case of financial measures, the definitions also include information required by SEC Regulation G. “Factors Affecting Future Results” and “Frequently Used Terms” are also available on the “investors” section of our website. Prior years’ data have been reclassified in certain cases to conform to the 2013 presentation basis. The term “project” as used in this publication can refer to a variety of different activities and does not necessarily have the same meaning as in any government payment transparency reports. 2013: Financial & Operating Summary We achieved strong financial and operating results in 2013, highlighted by our continued ability to generate strong cash flows that enable industry-leading shareholder distributions.

  • Backgrounder – Imperial Kearl Oil Sands Mine Hearings Affidavit Extracted from Federal Court of Canada Affidavit of Simon Dyer, Pembina Institute
    Backgrounder – Imperial Kearl Oil Sands Mine Hearings Affidavit Extracted from Federal Court of Canada Affidavit of Simon Dyer, Pembina Institute January 11, 2008 The Imperial Kearl Oil Sands Mine The Kearl Project is a proposed surface oil sands mine and processing facility north of Fort McMurray in Alberta. The Kearl Project is designed to produce more than 300,000 barrels per day of bitumen for a period of 50 years. Oil production is expected by 2010 and full capacity by 2018. The proposed Kearl Project will cover roughly 20,000 hectares (200 square kilometres) of land in northeast Alberta. For comparison, the Canadian Encyclopedia states that the West Edmonton Mall covers 49 hectares. This means that the landscape “footprint” of the Kearl Project will be approximately 400 times greater than that of the West Edmonton Mall. Assessment of Environmental Impacts On July 13, 2006, the federal Minister of Environment and the Chair of the Alberta Energy and Utilities Board signed the Agreement to Establish a Joint Panel for the Kearl Oil Sands Project. In November of 2006, the Panel held hearings, at which the Oil Sands Environmental Coalition (OSEC) appeared and made submissions. The Pembina Institute, as a member of OSEC, participated in and gave evidence at the hearings. On February 27, 2007, the Joint Panel published its report and recommendations concerning the Kearl Project, entitled Imperial Oil Resources Ventures Limited: Application for an Oil Sands Mine and Bitumen Process Facility (Kearl Oil Sands Project) in the Fort McMurray Area (the “Report”).

Green Introduction Recent events have elevated the importance of how we transport energy—spe- cifically oil—to high profile status. The long-stalled approval of the Keystone XL pipeline is probably the highest profile political event that has caused oil trans- port to surge to the fore in energy policy discussions today, but more prosaic economic issues also have played a role. Most importantly, because of limita- tions in the ability to ship oil to coastal refiners and overseas markets, Canada is forced to sell crude oil into the US market at a considerable discount relative to world oil price markers such as Brent.1 This is costing Canadians at least $15 billion each year (Beltrame, 2003, Apr. 13). Among other things, this shortfall has been blamed (wrongly, we believe) for problems with the balance sheet of Alberta’s government, bringing the issue to still greater prominence (Milke, 2013). Economic research has shown that eliminating bottlenecks (whether physical or political) can reduce oil price discounting similar to that which Canada currently endures (Bausell Jr.
