Esso

Esso (stylized as Ɛsso) is a trading name for ExxonMobil and its related companies. The name is the phonetic pronunciation of the initials 'S' and 'O' in the name Standard Oil. The company began as Standard Oil of New Jersey following the breakup of Standard Oil. In 1972, the name was largely replaced in the U.S. by the Exxon brand after the company bought Humble Oil, while the Esso name remained widely used elsewhere. In most of the world, the Esso brand and the Mobil brand are the primary brand names of ExxonMobil, with the Exxon brand name still in use only in the United States alongside Mobil. more »
