Random information on the term “OPEC”:

Big Oil is a name used to describe the world’s six or seven largest publicly traded and investor-owned oil and gas companies, also known as supermajors. The term, particularly in the United States, emphasizes their economic power and influence on politics. Big Oil is often associated with the fossil fuels lobby and also used to refer to the industry as a whole in a pejorative or derogatory manner.

Sources conflict on the exact makeup of Big Oil today, though the companies which are most frequently mentioned as supermajors are ExxonMobil, Chevron, BP, Shell, Eni and TotalEnergies, with ConocoPhillips frequently being included as well prior to spinning off its downstream operations into Phillips 66. The phrase “Super-Major” emanated from a report published by Douglas Terreson of Morgan Stanley in February 1998. The report foretold a substantial consolidation phase of “Major” Oil companies which would result in a group of dominant “Super-Major” entities. Big Oil previously referred to seven oil companies which formed the Consortium for Iran; such “Seven Sisters” were the Anglo-Persian Oil Company (a predecessor of BP), Shell plc, three of Chevron’s predecessors (Standard Oil of California, Gulf Oil and Texaco), and two of ExxonMobil’s predecessors (Jersey Standard and Standard Oil of New York).
