Exxon Mobil operates 37 oil refineries in 20 countries; in the USA, it owns and operates about 12,000 service stations.
Exxon Mobil mostly evaded any significant financial responsibility for the 1989 Exxon Valdez tanker crash, the 2nd worst oil spill in US history (since eclipsed by the 2010 Deepwater Horizon blowout. That disaster cost the company about $4.5 billion, paid out over 20 years (or roughly 2% of profits over that time period).

Utility beer
Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
