US-OIL-EARNINGS-EXXONMOBIL-FILES
(FILES) An Exxon sign is seen at a station in this September 20, 2008 file photo in Manassas, Virginia. US energy giant ExxonMobil reported slightly higher third-quarter earnings on October 31, 2014 better results in refining and chemicals offset lower profits from exploration and production. The largest US publicly-traded oil company, Exxon reported net income of $8.1 billion, up 2.5 percent from the same period a year ago. Earnings from the upstream division, which finds and produces oil and gas, fell $297 million to $6.4 billion as oil-equivalent production dropped 4.7 percent from last year. Chemical profits increased 17 percent to $1.2 billion. Friday's results "demonstrate the strength of our integrated business model," said chief executive Rex Tillerson. "Integration across upstream, downstream and chemical gives us competitive advantages in scale, efficiency, technical and commercial capabilities, regardless of market fluctuations over the business cycle."
