With that being said, one of the largest rivalries is no doubt Shell and Exxon.

So how did his stack up against each other?

Well, Exxon Mobil is an American multinational oil and gas corporation based in Irving, Texas.

It traces its roots all the way back to Rockefeller's standard oil company that dominate the market throughout the late 18 hundreds and early 19 hundreds in an effort to break down their monopoly and interest competition.

S Justice Sports put the company into 34 different companies, And many of these companies have guns.

The gas giants that we know today, like Chevron, which is formally the standard oil company of California. 00:00:50.220 --> 00:01:9.970  The eventual merging of the standard oil companies of New Jersey and New York Examiner Mobile, respectively in November of 1999 is what created the exam mobile that we know today from 10 to 2017 Exam Mobile has been a prominent plan the Fortune 500 list, bearing from the first to sixth largest publicly traded company by market cap.

Just last year, Exxon Mobil ranked second Fortune 500 Rankings of the largest Nice to his corporation spiked revenue.

They're agree on April of 1907 when rival companies the Royal Dutch Petroleum Company of the Netherlands and the Shell Transport Trading Company LTD.

Of the UK United about the first World War.

Shell was the main supplier of fuel for the Bridge Expeditionary Force.

It was also the only supplier of aviation fuel and supplies 80% of the bridge armies TNT.

They would sustain tremendous losses when the Germans invade Romanian 1916 which result in 17%.

The groups worldwide production being destroyed after that.

While they did recover and become a big player, they were never a market leader. 00:01:53.540 --> 00:02:0.330  Up until very recently, they first entered the Fortune 500 list of world's largest companies in 2013. 00:02:0.660 --> 00:02:1.380  Fun fact. 00:02:1.550 --> 00:02:2.250  This year. 00:02:2.260 --> 00:02:17.220  Well, a duck show made up 84% of the Dutch national GDP and ever since have aggressively made their way up the global fortune 500 list on which they have ranked number three in revenue in 2018 even been your exam mobile by over $100 billion.

In 2018 Royal Dutch Shell pulled in $396.6 billion while Exxon Mobil pulled in $290.2 billion.

But despite this vast difference revenue, their profits were much closer, with Royal Dutch Shell profiting $23.4 billion and exam logo profiting $20.8 billion.

As for physical locations, Shell has 43,000 gas stations across 70 countries, with 14,000 just in the US alone at his own mobile.

Another hand has been quickly exited in gas station market as profits or simply very low and start to focus on background work like refining and extracting oil.

After a peak in 1998 over 48,000 gas stations world by.

But by 2009 they only had 28,600 gas station's current world, where numbers are unknown, but they have roughly 12,000 US, which comes close to shelves 14,000 locations worldwide.

However, Shell tramples Exxon Mobil in terms of locations looking at employees examined 71,000 while Schellas 81,000.

Not only does show have slightly more employees, but it seems like showing put her slightly happier than eggs and employees as well.

On Glass Door, Shell has a 3.9 star rating with 4800 reviews, while Exxon Mobil has a 3.6 star rating with 3100 reviews.

But locations and employees aren't everything returning.

So how much gas does each of them produce?

Well, Exxon Mobil produces 2.4 million barrels of oil per day, but Royal Dutch Shell destroys that statistic, producing 3.9 billion bills per day.

Who has the better gas as gas? 00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:5.750  Coy does indeed very buy brand well top tear gas were developed in 2004 to go beyond the minimum standard for detergent additives. 00:04:5.930 --> 00:04:11.370  Better detergent additives are supposed to protect increasingly sophisticated engines from carbon buildup.

It is also supposed to reduce to pause on the intake valves, which would reduce fuel economy.

But this list is not decisive as Costco and even Puma gas make the cut.

Not to say they offer bad guests, but gas is clearly not remain business.

So an independent testing company named Paragon Laboratories put the gas clears head to head.

Using unwashed come tests scientists Boyle samples of gas from each station and measured the residue left behind, which is indicative of how much detergent was added in T gas.

This doesn't necessarily mean that one is better for your engine than the other, but does provide some objective data to look at.

After the tests were completed for regular unleaded 87 octane gas, it was determined that Exxon had the highest level of adjectives off all gas stations. 00:04:54.200 --> 00:05:0.870  Tested eggs on measured in at 20 milligrams per 100 mill liters of gas shell have significant lesson Exanta. 00:05:0.880 --> 00:05:5.590  Only 81 person of them with 16.2 milligrams per one familiars of gas. 00:05:5.800 --> 00:05:11.600  BP gas actually took second place containing 17.2 milligrams per 100 millions of gas.

But the story changes when looking at premium unleaded 92 or 93 octane gas.

Here, Shell leads the way with 31 milligrams for 100 millions of gas, almost double the regular gas, while Exxon always slightly improved to 21.2 milligrams per 100 milliliters.

BP gas is against second place with 26.4 milligrams per 100 millilitres.

But this does not mean that you should put premium fuel.

It's at a regular car, as test overto over again have proved that this provides no real benefit.

At the same time, though, don't put regular fuel into a premium fuel only card because that can have detrimental effects as well.

So on paper exam has the best quality got from most people and shell us at best quality gas for people who need premium gas.

But this is only significant for people who plan to keep their cars for several years. 00:05:58.610 --> 00:06:5.480  In an age where people only keep your car from our view of six years and PG may very well be more important than gas quality for many. 00:06:5.560 --> 00:06:7.480  So who has the better mpg? 00:06:7.690 --> 00:06:12.620  Well, there's no decisive answer for this, as there are no professional studies comparing the two.

But even if the studies were conducted, there would be no clear answer, as a truth is that there is no answer in New York show, maybe better.

This is because the oil refining process for the two companies is almost identical, and outside factors influence a gas mileage much more than either after refining processes.

Experts say that one of the most important factors determine gas.

Mollet is the freshness of the gas, so to shell gas stations that get their gas in the same place may very well provide different gas mileage.

If one is located in a small village on the other, one was looking in a sprawling urban city.

If your local shell is really popular, chance are your local shell gas station will provide you with better mpg than Exxon.

But if you were in a city where Exxon gets significantly more traffic, that day would be the better bet. 00:06:59.630 --> 00:07:8.170  So while you may find cheaper price at an unpopular examiner shell outside of town, you will probably get much better value for your money at one with much more traffic. 00:07:8.280 --> 00:07:9.500  Overall examples. 00:07:9.500 --> 00:07:12.270  Better regular gas while shell had better premium guests.

But despite this to get the most miles for your money, the smartest choice would be to go to whichever one has more traffic for all of you environmentally conscious folks, which company is more environmentally friendly?

Well, if you didn't know, just 100 companies were responsible for 71% of all worldwide greenhouse gas emissions.

And, of course, both of these companies are in the top 10 with Exxon Mobil placing number five cumulatively contributing to 1.9% of Minos gases, while Roldos showplaces number nine cumulatively contributed to 1.67%.

This statistic is a cumulative Green House gas emissions of either company from 1988 to 2015.

So while you may be thinking Shell is more environmentally friendly as they produce more barrels of Walden exam mobile per day, yet they have contributed lesson greenhouse gases. 00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:0.490  You would be mistaken. 00:08:0.710 --> 00:08:7.910  You have to remember that Shell has only become a market leader over the past decade, while Exxon Mobil has been a market leader since the 19 nineties. 00:08:8.110 --> 00:08:13.150  Despite this, ExxonMobil's only contributed 0.31% more than World Dutch Shell.

Both companies make promises to cut back admissions, but the effectiveness of the changes is unclear.

However, we can take a look at how many oil spills out of these companies have had to see how environmentally conscious JUHR exam has had a total of six oil spills, of which for relatively minor, with only a couple 1000 barrels of oil being released.

Exons Brooklyn and Valdez Oil spill, however, were devastating, spelling 20 and 11 million gallons of oil kind tens of thousands of sea creatures.

As for Royal Dutch Shell, they have had a total of only three oils pose, with the biggest one being on Lee 88,000 gallons of well, significantly less than Exxon. 00:08:48.620 --> 00:09:4.860  There are several reports of poor maintenance or pipelines in Nigeria, though, so you make the decision either eggs on who is more efficient and releases less greenhouse gas on a regular basis, but has been behind a couple of devastating oils both in the past or show who is constantly releasing more greenhouse gases. 00:09:5.020 --> 00:09:9.590  Clearly, neither cos is ST when it comes to the environment, as they're both oil companies. 00:09:9.800 --> 00:09:13.480  But what about the future of both companies as they move toward electric vehicles?

Will those mark the end of thes gas giants?

First of all, only 45.5% of gas consumption, the U.

In other words, only 45.5% is used as gas by ordinary people for their vehicles.

While that is a significant proportion, it isn't even the majority of gasoline use.

Think about all the other vehicles that use gas from trains and ships.

It's going to be a long wall before we see electric ships and planes, and it's going to take an even longer time for airlines to completely replace their fleets.

On top of this, producing gas is not the only thing these companies are involved in, especially eggs on who has continuously moved away from this arena.

Both companies were also heavily involved in the extraction of finding of oil, which is used for several purposes. 00:09:55.840 --> 00:10:4.960  I have nothing to do with gas, from clothing and furniture to fertilizer, insulation and plastic, our reliance on oil simply much deeper than just gas for cars. 00:10:5.140 --> 00:10:13.000  Furthermore, both companies are also heavily investing in their elected vehicle charging stations, so neither of them are going anywhere anytime soon.

In the end, Exxon Mobil, as well as its predecessor, Standard Oil Company, have had a pretty big stronghold of the U.

But over the past decade, real Dutch Shell is really about right.

It's going to become even bigger than Exxon Mobil.

But despite this, they're still two of the biggest gas companies in the world.

You may very well see eggs and rice a top once again, but that's what hard for us eggs on versus shell.

Which of these gas stations do you guys go to, or is it something completely different, like Costco or Sam's Club measure?

Also, if you like this video, they make shit up alike and consider subscribing in Florida Seymore video just like this one.

 But until then, I'm hurry and I'll see you guys on the next one.
