XOM is focused on core capabilities, committing capital to assets only when cost of supply is below $35/bbl, while assessingadditional opportunities internationally. Highlights: •XOM points to several mitigating factors that have moderated oil price jumps in the short term including: sanctioned oil on water beingreleased, inventories being depleted acting as a buffer, and the release of SPRs from various countries. As inventory levels diminish tocritical levels, XOM expects an inflection of oil price to the $150/bbl range. •XOM sees depressed gas prices continuing into the future as Neil contends there exists ample additional supply at the $3.5 marginal costlevel that will supplement the market, even with demand increases.•XOM expects significant gains to resource recovery rates in unconventional wells, to 50% by the end of the decade, up from traditionally10% recovered oil.
