Background
On March 24, 1989, the tanker Exxon Valdez grounded on Bligh Reef in Alaska's Prince William Sound, rupturing its hull and spilling nearly 11 million gallons of Prudhoe Bay crude oil into a remote, scenic, and biologically productive body of water. It was the largest single oil spill in U.S. coastal waters. In the weeks and months that followed, the oil spread over a wide area in Prince William Sound and beyond, resulting in an unprecedented response and cleanup.[1] Recent trends show that oil spills and environmental issues of this nature can come with big price tags and significant threats to reputational risk. Examples include the $20 billion fund set up in the aftermath of the BP Gulf Oil Spill; the $18 billion holding in the Chevron-Ecuador case; and the criminal and civil fines being threatened for recent off-shore oil spills in Brazil. Additionally, the oil industry is increasingly confronting challenges of compliance with regulations related to climate change, air, and pollution, among other environmental issues, such as the cap and trade programs.
Exxon Mobil Corporation is an integrated energy company that operates in numerous
environments and markets throughout the hemisphere and the world. It faces local and
global environmental challenges daily that gain significant legal attention. Dialogue
with the individuals from Exxon will discuss the corporate lessons from these constant
challenges and the ways in which environmental laws affect its business. We will discuss the environmental protections adopted in the aftermath of the Exxon Valdez spill, together with a range of topics including the
environmental protections and processes that ExxonMobil implements globally, the effects of the environmental challenges on the service station industry, the use of oxygenates and the
liability associated with them, and the approach ExxonMobil has taken towards enhanced
conservation in conjunction with its disposal of surplus property.
