The world relies on the Oil & Gas industry.

According to the US Energy Information Association,
America alone consumed a total of 6.87 billion barrels
(18.83 million barrels per day) in 2011.
This represents approximately 22% of total world
petroleum consumption.
But who are the key players in the oil and gas industry?
In recent years the traditional super majors have seen
stiff competition from the growing number of National
Oil Companies state owned entities that are
increasingly seizing sole rights to major oil reserves.
In this eBook we count down the eleven biggest oil and
gas companies in the world ranked by the volume of oil
and natural gas equivalent produced every day and take
a closer look at the visionaries who lead them.

and minister of petroleum under multiple cabinets.
ROKNODDIN JAVADI
Managing Director
The third largest oil and gas company is the National

Iranian Oil Co.
The company that was to become BP, AICO (AngloIranian Oil Company), initially owned rights to all
Persian oil resources. However they were ousted when
the Iranian oil industry was nationalised resulting in the
formation of the NIOC in 1951.
This meant the NIOC had exclusive rights to all Iranian
extraction, exploration, transportation and exportation
of crude oil, and all natural gas / LNG sales.
Remarkably the NIOC remains a major oil and gas
producer despite international sanctions targeting oil
revenues in an effort to stop Irans nuclear programme.
Its thought that some nations have been purchasing oil
from Iran with Gold to bypass sanction regulations.
Iran has threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz in
retaliation for U.S. and European sanctions which could
lead to a spike in oil prices globally.
The UAE in response is looking to the Fujairah Terminal
located on the Gulf of Oman as opposed to the Persian
Gulf, theoretically a perfect position to sidestep the
diplomatically tense chokepoint.
The MD is Roknoddin Javadi who in the past served as

the managing director of the National Iranian Gas
Exports Company (NIGEC) and director of Evic
Company, one of the Iranian oil and gas industries key
contractors.

The NIOC is currently contesting Saudi Aramco over the
name of the Arabian Gulf which it believes should be

At position four is ExxonMobil, the largest nongovernment owned oil and gas company.
The company was formed in 1999 following the merger
of Standard Oil descendants Exxon and Mobil in a
$73.7 billion deal, the biggest merger in US corporate
history.
Understanding the value of local branding, ExxonMobil
markets it products under the names Exxon, Mobil, and
Esso.
The company produces approximately 3 percent of the
world's oil and 2 percent of the world's energy.
Their public profile took a hit when the 1989 Exxon
Valdez incident cast a negative spotlight on the oil and
gas industry.
Tillerson holds a Bachelor of Science degree in civil

engineering at the University of Texas where he was
named a distinguished alumnus in 2007.
In 1975 he joined Exxon as a as a production engineer
and then went to on to become general manager of

Rosneft is a Russian, state owned NOC. The company

was formed in 1993 from assets previously held by
Rosneftegaz, the successor to the Soviet Union's
Ministry of Oil and Gas. Currently the state holds
69.50% in Rosneft.
In 1995 Rosneft was turned into an open joint stock
company. Plans to privatise the company in the late 90s
never materialised.
Rosneft operates in key regions of Russia: Western
Siberia, Southern and Central Russia, Timan-Pechora,
Eastern Siberia, Far East and is involved in exploration
projects in Kazakhstan and Algeria and has stakes in
four Germany refineries through Ruhr Oel GmbH.
The company was set to merge with Gazprom in 2005
but this was scrapped - allegedly because then
president Sergey Bogdanchikov would not take a
deferential role to Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller.
Rosneft ran one of the largest IPOs in history in 2006.
The IPO raised $10.7 billion (including over $1 billion
from oligarch Roman Abramovich) and Rosneft was
valued at $79.8 billion. Financier George Soros was
against the IPO and called for a boycott on ethical
grounds, and Andrei Illarionov, called the deal "a crime
against the Russian people," as none of the proceeds
went to the state budget.
Rozneft and BP were set to complete a partnership to

develop the East-Prinovozemelsky field on the Russian
arctic shelf. The deal was not completed as BP's Russian
partners in the TNK-BP joint venture, AAR, claimed the
deal breached their own contract with BP which
stipulated their partnership would be the principal
venture for BP's Russian oil and gas operations.
However in 2013, Rosneft completed a deal to acquire
TNK-BP. As part of the deal BP divested its stake for
$12.3 billion and 18.5% of Rosneft's share, while AAR
received $28 billion.
IGOR SECHIN
Chairman
Sechin graduated from Leningrad State University in

1984 and holds a PhD in Economics.
He has held the following roles: Deputy Head of the
Executive Office of the President of the Russian
Federation, Aide to the President of the Russian
Federation and Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian
Federation.
In May 2012 he was appointed President of Rosneft and
Chairman of Rosnefts Management Board. Sechin also
serves on the boards of a number of companies
including TNK-BP Limited. Sechin holds 9 million Rosneft
shares (0.085% of the share capital).

Corporation in 1980 as an umbrella organisation to
manage the countrys diversified oil interests.
KPC is made up of the following subsidiaries: Kuwait Oil
Company (KOC), Kuwait National Petroleum Company
(KNPC), Petrochemicals Industries Company (PIC),

BOB DUDLEY
Group Chief Executive
Although founded in 1954 British Petroleums roots go

back much further. The Anglo-Persian Oil Company
was formed in 1909, itself an offshoot of the Burmah
Oil Company. It later rebranded to the Anglo-Iranian
Oil Company and then finally to BP. 11 years later the
company became the first to strike oil in the north
seas
Other notable mergers and acquisitions following its
privatisation in 1979 / 1987 include Amoco in 1998 and
ARCO and Burmah Castrol in 2000.
Thanks to its 20,000 plus service stations, BP is one of
the most recognisable oil and gas companies.
The company rebranded in 2001, dropping its green
shield logo in favour of the Helios symbol designed
to represent event in all its forms.
The company also adopted the slogan "Beyond
Petroleum" highlighting their focus on all types of
energy and stressing their commitment to a lower
carbon future.
BP hit rock bottom when the 2010 Gulf of Mexico
disaster became a major global talking point and led to
the company pleading guilty on 11 counts of
manslaughter, two misdemeanours, and one count of
lying to Congress resulting in $4.5 billion in fines- the
largest criminal resolution in US history.
