ExxonMobil has finalized corporate plans through 2027, estimating maintaining a capital budget of $20-25 billion for each year.

Exxon will also increase spending to $15 billion on greenhouse gas emission-reduction projects over the next six years while maintaining disciplined capital investments in its industry-leading portfolio.
