Connection April 2024

In this month’s edition of Connection, we highlight our participation at this year’s Australian Domestic Gas Outlook Conference. ExxonMobil Australia’s Commercial Director, Dave Berman, spoke at the event about what it means to take responsibility for our own energy security in Australia and what ExxonMobil Australia and our Joint Venture partners are doing to ensure ongoing reliable and affordable energy supply into the future.

In the latest update from our Longford Plant and Offshore operations, Manager Clinton Gentle discusses decommissioning works underway in the Bass Strait and the work being done to further our transformation to a modern gas business, preparing for the future with ongoing planning of CO2 capture and storage and supplying CO2 directly to industry.

This month, we feature the Melbourne Terminal Community Bulletin, which highlights investments being made to support our reliable supply of fuel from the terminal and projects we’re proud to be involved in as part of our partnerships with community organisations.                                                

In community news, we announce Mobil’s new partnership with local Victorian Football League club Williamstown FC for the 2024/2025 season. As part of the Melbourne Terminal’s community contributions program, Mobil provided a grant towards the Williamstown Women’s VFL team to help build awareness of the women’s game in the community and to support the installation of new goal nets at the club’s home ground in Williamstown.

We hope you enjoy this edition of Connection.
