(FILES) (COMBO) This combination of file pictures created on July 28, 2023 shows, an Exxon gas station in Woodbridge, Virginia, on January 5, 2016; and a Chevron gas station in El Segundo, California, on January 26, 2022 . ExxonMobil and Chevron both reported a dip in profits on April 26, 2024, on lower refining margins and natural gas prices, but ExxonMobil's big takeover appears on track to close before Chevron's.
