Worldwide

It's correct only for North America and West Europe not worldwide. Softy (talk)

Colors

What do the different colors mean? Rossi27530 (talk) 01:14, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Seriously what do the colours mean, it's annoying the hell out of me. --Kevlar (talkcontribs) 05:14, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I too would like to know what the colors mean. 75.60.64.137 (talk) 23:01, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It might just be a mistake. 18:33, 28 May 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mgasparin (talkcontribs)

Correction

The Esso Brand owned by ExxonMobil should read that Esso is used worldwide, except for the US (due to the Standard Oil breakup).TEG (talk) 16:41, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The Caltex brand is also missing, which is a major player in Asia and Australia/NZ and should be included as part of Chevron, as it was originally a partnership between Chevron and Texaco. TEG (talk) 20:41, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mobil

The chart shows Mobil as being a brand of both ExxonMobil and Total S.A. The Wikipedia entry for Total does not have any information on this, and on the Mobil page, it is explicitly stated as being a merged company with Exxon and there is no mention of Total S.A. 208.71.48.62 (talk) 19:09, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
While I have nothing to back it up, I believe that in some countries, like the US, Total markets Mobil, much like how prior to 2005, Shell marketed Texaco in the US. TEG (talk) 16:16, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This seems to be a mere mistake. I'm not aware of any control of Total S.A. over Mobil, and Petrofina is missing in the Total break-up. I think there have been a confusion between Petrofina and Mobil. --Napishtim (talk) 14:06, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Some employees of Mobil were absorbed by BP in 1996 upon dissolution of a joint venture. --Esparita (talk) 10:19, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Unocal (formerly Union Oil of California) was absorbed into Chevron not Conoco Phillips —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.226.184.224 (talk) 23:05, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Total S.A. revenue

This page: Financial Overview shows a revenue of 153.8 billions of Euro, not USD, in the year 2006. Also the Forbes Global 2000 shows a revenue of 199 billions USD in 2008. Even in the 2007 list, Total S.A is ahead of Conoco. Ark25 (talk) 06:44, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Where's Amoco?

Amoco was acquired and absorbed into BP, but is not mentioned in the chart. Please make the appropriate correction. Steelbeard1 (talk) 18:56, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
