ExxonMobil Signs a New Production Sharing Contract in Indonesia

Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE:XOM) subsidiary, ExxonMobil
Exploration and Production Indonesia (Mandar) Limited, has signed a
Production Sharing Contract (PSC) with the government of Indonesia for
the Mandar block located in the Makassar Straits offshore West
Sulawesi. This contract will enable exploration activities on the
block to begin. ExxonMobil was announced the successful bidder for the
Mandar block in the 2006 Indonesian Exploration Tender Round by the
government of Indonesia with a 100 percent participating interest.

The Mandar block, which comprises 1 million acres (4,200 square
kilometers), is located in the Southern Makassar Basin in water depths
ranging from the coastline to more than 6,000 feet (2,000 meters).

"The Mandar block augments ExxonMobil's acreage position in the
Makassar Straits where we have a PSC in place for the Surumana block
from the previous tender round," said Steve Greenlee, vice president
of ExxonMobil Exploration Company.

Subsidiaries and predecessors of Exxon Mobil Corporation have been
operating in Indonesia for more than 100 years. Since 1968, ExxonMobil
companies have invested more than $17 billion in the country.
