Exxon Mobil unveiled its Corporate Plan to 2030, targeting an additional $20 billion in earnings and $30 billion in cash flow by the end of the decade compared to 2019 levels. This growth is expected from advantaged Upstream assets and high-value Product Solutions.

The company forecasts annual project spending of $27 billion to $29 billion in 2025, and $28 billion to $33 billion annually from 2026 through 2030. This disciplined investment is focused on competitively advantaged, high-return projects.

Upstream production is targeted to reach 5.4 million oil-equivalent barrels per day by 2030, an increase from 4.3 million boepd currently. More than 60% of this production is expected to come from advantaged assets, with per-barrel profit increasing from $10 in 2024 to $13.

The plan also includes increasing Pioneer acquisition synergies by 50% to over $3 billion annually and growing new business earnings to $3 billion from lower-emission investments. These new ventures, including carbon capture, hydrogen, and lithium, are expected to generate earnings insulated from commodity price cycles.

ExxonMobil aims to grow high-value product sales by 80% by 2030, reaching over 40% of total Product Solutions earnings. Cumulative structural cost savings are targeted to reach $18 billion by 2030 relative to 2019 levels, with $12.7 billion already achieved through Q1 2025.

The company reiterated its commitment to competitive shareholder returns through a growing dividend and a $20 billion per year share repurchase program through 2026, assuming reasonable market conditions.
