The American Jobs Plan

On Wednesday, March 31 at an event in Pittsburgh, the president of the United States of America, Mr. Joe Biden has introduced out his next big proposal: a roughly $2 trillion plan for improving USA's infrastructure and shifting to greener energy over the next 8 years while ending gender gap and race injustice. The president Joe Biden Plan aim to address the crumbling US’s road, bridges and water systems, the vulnerable electric grid and the lack to access to affordable high-speed internet and to quality housing. According to the White House, it has never been more important for the USA to invest in strengthening their infrastructure and competitiveness, and in creating the good-paying, union jobs of the future. But unlike past major investments, the plan prioritizes addressing long-standing and persistent racial injustice. The plan targets 40% of the benefits of climate and clean infrastructure investments to disadvantaged communities. And, the plan invests in rural communities and communities impacted by the market-based transition to clean energy. The White House plans to pay for the proposal by raising corporate taxes and eliminating tax breaks for fossil fuels over the next 15 years. Furthermore, the US President Joe Biden has welcomed any other ideas for raising funds for the American Jobs Plan as far as they do not impose any tax increase on people making less than $400,000 dollars.

Alongside the American Jobs Plan, President Biden is releasing a Made in America Tax Plan to make sure corporations pay their fair share in taxes and encourage job creation at home. A recent study found that 91 Fortune 500 companies paid $0 in federal taxes on U.S. income in 2018. Another study found that the average corporation paid just 8% in taxes. President Biden believes that profitable corporations should not be able to get away with paying little or no tax by shifting jobs and profits overseas. President Biden’s plan will reward investment at home, stop profit shifting, and ensure other nations won’t gain a competitive edge by becoming tax havens. Together these corporate tax changes will raise over $2 trillion over the next 15 years and more than pay for the mostly one-time investments in the American Jobs Plan and then reduce deficits on a permanent basis: • set the Corporate Tax Rate at 28 percent; • discourage Offshoring by Strengthening the Global Minimum Tax for U.S. Multinational Corporations; • end the Race to the Bottom Around the World; • prevent U.S. Corporations from inverting or claiming tax havens as their residence; • deny Companies Expense Deductions for Offshoring Jobs and Credit Expenses for Onshoring; • eliminate a Loophole for Intellectual Property that Encourages Offshoring Jobs and Invest in Effective R&D Incentives; • enact A Minimum Tax on Large Corporations’ Book Income; • eliminate Tax Preferences for Fossil Fuels and Make Sure Polluting Industries Pay for Environmental Clean Up; • ramping Up Enforcement Against Corporations. The American Jobs Plan launched by President Joe Biden is a very ambitious plan that has the noble scope to overcome social and racial injustices and the economic disaster accentuated by the Covid-19 pandemic. It is an exciting step towards an inclusive economic recovery. The President Joe Biden plan is a very complex plan and it won’t be easy to make it succeed considering his vastity and all the different actors and interest groups involved. But it worth to fight and make it happen effectively.

Finance and insurance; healthcare and social assistance; and administrative and support and waste management and remediation services were the leading contributors to the increase in real GDP nationally. Other highlights

• Finance and insurance increased 12.9 percent nationally and contributed to the increases in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. This industry was the leading contributor to the increases in 25 states including South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and Connecticut, the states with the four largest increases. • Healthcare and social assistance increased 8.3 percent nationally and contributed to the increases in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. This industry was the leading contributor to the increase in seven states including Tennessee, the state with the fifth largest increase. • Administrative and support and waste management and remediation services increased 21.1 percent nationally and contributed to the increases in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. • Accommodation and food services decreased 7.1 percent nationally. This industry moderated increases in real GDP in 38 states. Coronavirus (COVID-19) Impact on Fourth-Quarter 2020 and Annual 2020 GDP by State Estimates The increases in fourth-quarter GDP by state reflect both the continued economic recovery from the sharp declines earlier in the year and the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including new restrictions and closures that took effect in some areas of the United States. The annual 2020 estimates of GDP by state reflect the rapid shifts in activity, as business and schools switched to remote work, consumers and businesses canceled, restricted, or redirected their spending, governments issued and lifted "stay-at-home" orders and government pandemic assistance payments were distributed to households and businesses. The full economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be quantified in the GDP by state estimates because the impacts are generally embedded in source data and cannot be separately identified.

How Covid19- triggered a Latin American e-commerce boom

– Covid-19 drove significant growth in e-commerce across Latin America – As one of the fastest-growing markets, retail e-commerce expanded by 37% in 2020 – A number of local players, led by Mercado Libre, dominate the regional market – The increase in activity has attracted the attention of international competitors

Mirroring global trends, the coronavirus pandemic led to a rapid increase in online payment activity in Latin America over the course of 2020, turning the region into one of the fastest-growing e-commerce markets in the world. Prior to the outbreak of the virus, e-commerce penetration was comparatively low across Latin America, with uptake hindered by the region’s substantial unbanked population, complicated logistics connections and general lack of trust in online methods. However, with many stores forced to suspend physical operations, Covid19- has helped drive VLJQL²FDQW JURZWK LQ WKLV DUHD It has been estimated that 13m people across Latin America made an online transaction for the ²UVW WLPH ODVW \HDU ZKLOH UHWDLO H FRPPHUFH JUHZ E\ %36.7 to around 85$bn, according to data FRPSDQ\ 6WDWLVWD 2Q D QDWLRQDO EDVLV SDUWLFXODUO\ VLJQL²FDQW JURZWK ZDV VHHQ LQ $UJHQWLQD (%79), Brazil (%35) and Mexico (%27). :KLOH VWLOO ZHOO EHORZ FRPSDUDWLYH ²JXUHV LQ $VLD 3DFL²F 2.4$trn), North America (750$bn) and Western Europe (500$EQ /DWLQ $PHULFD QHYHUWKHOHVV PDGH VLJQL²FDQW SURJUHVV WKURXJK out 2020. “Quarantine and social distancing measures greatly accelerated the trust and adoption of digital platforms, helping Latin America catch up with more digitally mature markets like the US or China,” Carlos Garcia Ottati, the founder and CEO of Mexican online vehicle platform Kavak, told OBG. Homegrown players While multinational e-commerce and digital payments companies have experienced rapid growth throughout the pandemic, in Latin America a number of homegrown options have capitalised on the shift in demand. Chief among those is online marketplace Mercado Libre, which allows individuals and businesses to buy, sell, advertise and pay for goods on its online platform. First established in Argentina in 1999, the company now operates in 18 different countries across the region. Dubbed the “Amazon of Latin America”, it is the largest e-commerce company in the region. Mercado Libre has been one of the big winners of the pandemic, with its value more than doubling over the past year. “At the beginning of the pandemic sales were driven by Covid-19-related items like protective gear and hygiene products, whereas from May onwards, most other categories also experienced sustained growth in sales,” David Geisen, country lead of Mercado Libre Mexico, told OBG. “In the second quarter, not only did we register 3m new customers on our platform, but purchasing frequency increased sharply, with customers transacting in a quarter what they formerly did in a year.” 2YHU WKH ²UVW QLQH PRQWKV RI 2020, the number of unique active users increased by %84.3 year-on-year, from 61.1m to 112.5m, and gross merchandise value rose by %41.8, while the total payment volume grew by %71.5 to 33.8$bn. This saw the company increase its share in the Latin American e-commerce market to %28, according to Morgan Stanley estimates, up from %19 in 2015. Another key player is Colombian super app Rappi, which is active in nine countries across the region. Established in 2015, the company offers a variety of services, allowing consumers to order groceries, restaurant meals, medication and fashion, among other things. It also allows users to transfer money and has its own delivery service.

Expansion of services A number of e-commerce firms in the region have expanded into services beyond purchase and delivery. In 2019 Rappi announced a partnership with Visa to offer prepaid cards linked to its digital wallet in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico, while in June last year the company created a financial services joint venture with Mexican bank Banorte. Mercado Libre has also expanded beyond its core online marketplace business in recent years, with the company now consisting of a logistics division, a credit service, a financial technology platform and an advertising agency. In fact, in November last year the company’s credit arm was granted a permit to operate as a financial institution in Brazil, a decision the company says will allow it to expand its credit offerings and financial services in the region’s largest market. Elsewhere, investments have gone into developing Mercado Libre’s logistics capabilities following the surge in demand in 2020. “We have significantly expanded our warehousing and distribution footprint in Mexico, increasing our storage capacity from 30 sq km two years ago to 200 sq km in 2020,” Geisen told OBG. Expansion of services and markets has been seen across the board, with Mexican company Kavak becoming the country’s first tech unicorn in September after reaching a valuation of $1.15bn in its funding round. The company also expanded into Argentina through a merger with used-car platform Checkars.

International competition While the e-commerce market is currently dominated by regional operators, recent growth, along with substantial potential, has already attracted a number of international competitors. Among them is US giant Amazon, which has been active in the region since 2015. Although it has so far been kept in check by local players, the company has nevertheless doubled its PDUNHW VKDUH LQ /DWLQ $PHULFD RYHU WKH SDVW ²YH \HDUV WR DURXQG %4. In an effort to increase the company’s footprint, last year Amazon announced plans to open its largest distribution centre in Brazil and launched Amazon Cash in Mexico, a payment option that allows customers to make purchases with cash at participating convenience stores. Elsewhere, Shopee, the largest e-commerce platform in South-east Asia, which is owned by Singaporean company Sea, also recently increased its presence in the region. After initially establishing operations in Brazil in 2019, in February Shopee announced the launch of an app in Mexico, with plans to offer online sales in the near future. In a bid to win over market share, the app states that Shopee will offer free shipping throughout Mexico. It comes as shares in parent company Sea jumped by %400 last year, and market capitalisation reached around 130$bn.

US National Association of Manufacturers’ CEO welcomed President Joe Biden’s infrastructure framework

On March 31 in Pittsburgh President Joe Biden has launched his ‘’American Jobs Plan’’ announcing a $2.25 trillion climate change-centric infrastructure plan meant to repair the U.S’s roads and bridges and guarantee access to broadband internet and safe drinking water across USA. The President and CEO Jay Timmons of U.S. National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) has released the following statement on Joe Biden’s infrastructure framework. “The President’s proposal for historic levels of infrastructure investment reflects many of the investment priorities in the NAM’s ‘Building to Win’ plan, and we look forward to reviewing the details. President Biden’s clear focus on strengthening manufacturing and the workforce of the future shows that he is truly committed to building the next post-pandemic world—one that is stronger and more resilient than in pre-pandemic times. Mr. Jay Timmons commented: ‘’manufacturers have played a leading role in the fight against COVID-19, and we will continue to play a leading role in our economic recovery. When manufacturing is strong, America is strong’’. The NAM President and CEO has raised its concern about tax raising on manufacturer to finance the ‘’American Jobs Plas’’. He reported: “raising taxes on manufacturers would fundamentally undermine our ability to lead this recovery. Our industry fought for decades to achieve a tax system that includes competitive rates and modern international tax provisions. As a result of the 2017 reforms, manufacturers kept our promises: we raised wages and benefits, we hired American workers, and we invested in our communities. Raising taxes on manufacturers here at home would jeopardize all of that and make it more difficult for them to compete in the global economy—putting investment, jobs and livelihoods at risk. We believe strongly in bold infrastructure investment, and we know it can be achieved through a combination of revenue sources like those we identified in the NAM’s ‘Building to Win,’ which includes user fees and bond financing for capital projects. We also know that making the men and women who make things in America pay for the infrastructure projects that will benefit all Americans just doesn’t make sense and would harm their future. Let’s keep moving forward and not turn back the clock to the archaic tax policies that gave other countries an advantage over America. Mr. Timmons concluded his statement with the following: “to be sure, President Biden’s proposal on infrastructure investment is strong, necessary and welcome. Achieving our shared goals will be the result of debate, discussion and collaboration with the administration and both parties in Congress. We can achieve the President’s investment objectives while holding firm against financing proposals that would severely harm the ability of manufacturers to invest and hire workers here in the U.S. We look forward to engaging with all stakeholders to achieve an outcome that benefits all economic sectors and all Americans.”

Chemical Recycling of Solid Plastic Wastes to Hydrogen, Fuels and Chemicals.

Chemical recycling of solid plastic waste (SPW) is a paramount opportunity to reduce marine and land pollution and to enable the incorporation of the circular economy principle in today’s society and in the chemical process industry. In addition to more conscious behaviors and wiser product design (“design for recycling”), a key challenge is the identification of the leading recycling technologies, minimizing the global warming potential in an industrially relevant context. Chemical recycling technologies based on pyrolysis and gasification (Figure 1) are leading the way because of their robustness and good economics, but an improved understanding of the chemistry and more innovative reactor designs are required to realize a potential reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of more than 100 million tonnes CO2-eq., primarily by more efficient use of valuable natural resources. In particular, gasification to H2 and CO can also strongly contribute to the energy transition to hydrogen utilization.

The feed flexibility of thermal processes supports the potential of pyrolysis and gasification, however, the strong variability in time and space of blending partners such as multiple and co-polymers, additives, and contaminants (such as inorganic materials) calls for accurate assessment through fundamental experiments and models. Such complex and variable mixtures are strongly sensitive to the process design and conditions: temperature, residence time, heating rates – severity, mixing level, heat and mass transfer strongly affect the thermal degradation of SPW and its selectivity to valuable products. A prerequisite in improving design and performance is the ability to model conversion profiles and product distributions based on accurate rate coefficients for the dominating reaction families established using first-principle derived transport and thermodynamic properties. These models should also help with the “design for recycling” strategy to increase recyclability, for example by identifying additives that make chemical recycling difficult. Fundamental experiments of increased quality (accuracy, integrity, validity, replicability, completeness) together with improved deterministic kinetic models, systematically developed according to the reaction classes and rate rules approach, provide insights to identify optimal process conditions. This will allow shedding some light upon the important pathways involved in the thermal degradation of the feedstock and the formation/disappearance of desired or unwanted products. In parallel, the intrinsic kinetics of the dominating elementary reaction steps should be determined with higher accuracy, moving beyond single step kinetics retrieved from thermogravimetric analysis experiments. Together with more accurate kinetic parameters, better models to account for heat and mass transfer limitations also need to be further developed, since plastic degradation involves at least three phases (solid, liquid, gas), whose interactions should be accounted for in a more rigorous way. Novel experimental approaches (e.g. detailed feedstock and product characterization using comprehensive chromatographic techniques and photoionization mass spectrometry) and available computational tools (e.g. kinetic Monte Carlo, liquid phase, and heterogeneous theoretical kinetics) are needed to tackle these problems and improve our fundamental understanding of chemical recycling of SPW. A recent paper from Ghent University (Belgium) and Politecnico di Milano (Italy) discusses in details all of the existing challenges, from a priori model parameter determination, to kinetic model development and reduction and to experimental techniques, where industrial and academic efforts should be focused so as to rapidly allow a full scale implementation of chemical recycling technologies.

Tim White, GE Renewable Energy’s CEO, Onshore Americas, said, “GE Renewable Energy is delighted to be a part of this exciting endeavor, which is the largest combined onshore wind project in GE’s history. We have a long partnership with Invenergy and AEP and look forward to working closely with them to help bring a significant amount of affordable, sustainable energy to the region. As the US and the world have adopted increasing amounts of renewable energy, Invenergy and GE are helping to accelerate this change by being the partners of choice for utilities and other leading companies that want to be part of the ongoing and critical transition to affordable, sustainable renewable energy.“ “It is critical that Invenergy work with trusted partners as we develop and build the North Central Wind Energy Facilities; including Traverse, the largest wind farm in the country, and especially during the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Jim Shield, EVP and Chief Commercial Officer at Invenergy. “Invenergy is proud to deepen our long-standing partnership with GE Renewable Energy to deliver the benefits these projects will bring to AEP and the nation.” North Central Wind is the second 1GW+ onshore project in the western hemisphere that GE will build out continuously this year, reinforcing both the demand for clean, renewable wind energy and GE’s strong position in the market. GE Renewable Energy was recognized by the American Clean Power Association (ACP) as the top manufacturer of wind turbines in the US in 2020, for the third year in a row. Of the total onshore wind installed nationwide, ACPA reported that GE technology was deployed in 53% of new capacity additions, as well as in 31% of new projects under construction or in advanced development that have selected an OEM. GE Energy Financial Services (“GE EFS”) invested in the Traverse project during the construction phase and provided creative structuring to enable financing of this build transfer opportunity, demonstrating GE’s ability to solve problems for our customers.

ExxonMobil tests advanced recycling of plastic waste at Baytown facilities

• Developing capability to convert plastic waste into valuable products at scale • Proprietary process leverages existing integrated facilities • 3ODQV WR PDUNHW ,6&& FHUWL²HG FLUFXODU SRO\PHUV later this year

IRVING, February 25, 2021: ExxonMobil has completed the initial phase of a plant trial of a proprietary advanced recycling process for converting plastic waste into raw materials for production of high-value polymers. The trial, at the company’s existing facilities in Baytown, Texas, marks another step in ExxonMobil’s efforts to help reduce plastic waste in the environment and maximize resource recovery. ExxonMobil intends to use results from the Baytown trial to scale-up advanced recycling capabilities at other global facilities, targeting a circular solution for converting difficult-to-recycle plastic waste into feedstock for virgin-quality plastic. “ExxonMobil is taking action to help address the issue of plastic waste,” said Karen McKee, president of ExxonMobil Chemical Company. “This advanced recycling initiative brings together the strength of ExxonMobil’s integrated petrochemical facilities and our deep technology expertise in chemical processing to capture value from plastic waste and meet our customers’ growing demand for high-performance, certified circular polymers.” ExxonMobil has already obtained certifications through the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification Plus (ISCC+) process. ISCC+ is widely recognized by industry as an effective system to certify products that result from advanced recycling of plastic waste. Pending a successful completion of the next phase of the Baytown plant trial, the company plans to market commercial volumes of certified circular plastics later this year. ExxonMobil has also formed a joint venture with Agilyx Corporation, Cyclyx International LLC, focused on developing innovative solutions for aggregating and pre-processing large volumes of plastic waste that can be converted into feedstocks for valuable products. Cyclyx will help supply ExxonMobil’s advanced recycling projects, and will aim to do the same for other customers. The company supports making the most of resources and minimizing waste, which are the underlying principles of the circular economy concept. Advanced recycling, along with innovation and new processes, will play an important role in reducing plastic waste. ExxonMobil is founding member of the Alliance to End Plastic Waste, which is focused on accelerating investment in safe, scalable and economically viable solutions to help address the challenge of plastic waste in the environment.

Anomaly Detection For Industry 4.0

Louis Fabrice Tshimanga Former bioengineer, data scientist in fieri, ex museum guide, with a passion for research, cybernetics, and science popularization

As it is renowned, the global industries are evolving through their Fourth Revolution: Industry 4.0. The umbrella term refers to the collection of cutting-edge technologies and their co impacts on the industrial processes. The factories are more and more automated facilities, where smart becoming m industrial robots operate under the guidance and control of algorithms optimized for the sake of secure, steady, faultless and efficient production. The integration of physical and information systems is called Internet of Things, the connection of objects, sensors, actuators, with streaming of data and online processing. The possibilities of such technology are yet to be explored, and an aspect that might be overlooked by the general public (at least) is that of anomaly detection through sensors or other data recordings from machinery, or from direct and undirect inspection of the production line. In this framework of extreme coordination in space, time, and between complex goal-oriented agents and schedules, errors and unexpected phenomena have a disruptive effect that should be prevented. Anomaly detection is a branch of data science, where models are developed in order to recognize unexpected, undesired, or new behaviors and features of the systems under inspection, mainly based on knowledge and characterizations of normal data. Defect detection is a sub-field, or a specific task, in anomaly detection. While an anomaly can only be defined implicitly as a type of deviation from the norm, a defect is a specified, classifiable kind of anomaly. One of the key differences between artisanal production and industrial manufacturing is that the latter implements an intense standardization of processes and products. In this context, anomalies are undesirable and translate to problems such as faulty machinery, or faulty products. After the methods of management and organization of industrial systems introduced by the likes of Frederick Winslow Taylor, Henry Ford, William Edwards Deming, Kaoru Ishikawa, many Fourth Revolution novelties will heavily rely in the optimization, analysis and control of the smart factory through data science technologies. The timely intervention in substituting faulty machinery is essential to the maintenance of a proper production stream. To reduce costs from extreme events, periodic maintenance and monitoring of industrial machines and robots is common, EXW PRUH SURJUHVV FRXOG EH GRQH WRZDUGV D FRVW HI²FLHQW IDXOW SUHYHQWLRQ ZKHQ instruments more prone to failure are targetable and recognizable as such by properties of their activity, or by data they happen to generate continuously and without human constant supervision, which requires expertise, patience and yet is not safe from error. This new framework of target prevention is called predictive

maintenance. Many instruments, as a by-product of their movements and functions, generate vibrations, sounds, or other physical and information signals that encode hints about their status and health. Collecting large amounts of data, that often are already available to some extent, allows for modelling what “normal” and desired activity present itself and should be like. It is then possible to detect eventual phenomena that stand out of the background of normality and that might be sources or effects of machine damage, problematic issues that could affect the production, but that could go unnoticed or be absent during the periodic but limited assessments and safety controls. There are already platform and services suited for storage and analysis of data through automated machine learning, and of course an internal data science team could develop systems adapted to UHVRXUFHV DQG JRDOV RI VSHFL²F LQGXVWULHV DQG SODQWV Anomalies present themselves also in the manufactured products and could cause a range of problems from recalling lots already on the market, to refunding clients and paying reparations, with added reputational costs, waste of material resources, time and energy. Moreover, anomalous products might be of concern for the health and safety of end-users. Generally, quality controls rely on sampling and recording information about variation of products. This variation characterizes the production processes but does not, per se, prevent nor programmatically detect and eliminate anomalies from manufacturing. Operators for continuous and complete quality checks undergo more stressful and attention-absorbing routines than RWKHU WHFKQLFLDQV ZKLOH WKHLU HUURU SURQHQHVV LV GLI²FXOW WR FKDUDFWHUL]H 7KXV VHQVRU DQG information processing aid might heavily reduce human labour while keeping results up to VSHFL²HG VWDQGDUGV )RU H[DPSOH FRPSXWHU YLVLRQ PDFKLQH OHDUQLQJ DQG $, DUH QRZ DEOH WR recognize, localize and classify a wide range of objects and features under diverse conditions and could share inspection duties with human operators, complementing their respective strengths, namely for automated systems the absence of fatigue and the computing power. $QRPDO\ GHWHFWLRQ LV DOVR HVVHQWLDO IRU EDQNLQJ LQVXUDQFH ²UPV DV ZHOO DV VHUYHU DGPLQLVWUD tors to monitor and timely react to fraud, crime, and hacking. Abnormal purchasing behavior, money transactions or log patterns may signal non-random variations caused by external agents introduced in the system. This is of industrial interest, especially with the relevance of cybersecurity for the many information facets a smart factory generates, stores and relies upon, with attacks that could cause direct money loss or the perturbation of machinery and manufacturing products. Whether solutions are offered by external providers or developed internally, anomaly detection is a powerful tool to maintain the negative sides of unexpectedness under control. Some models and pipelines translate well across industries and tasks, patents and UHVHDUFK FRXOG XQUDYHO JRRG LQYHVWPHQWV LQ GLIIHUHQW ²HOGV DQG DW WKH VDPH time discoveries from academic research, for medical applications and so forth could be adapted to industry relevant problems. The world system needs us to produce more and better for a lesser general cost, and anomaly detection is one of our tools for smarter, greener, safer, and faster factories.

Pandemic management in the oil and gas industry

April 7, 2021: IPIECA and IOGP have published new guidance on Pandemic management in the oil and gas industry. This document is a culmination of the good practices, information and strategies developed by IPIECA and IOGP members to respond to the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Throughout a pandemic, the role of the global energy sector is to maintain energy security for society, while ensuring the health and safety of personnel as well as contributing to societal responses in areas of operations. By deploying effective risk mitigating measures to reduce the international and local transmission of infectious disease, the industry’s workforce can be protected, and companies can actively contribute to societal priorities. The document provides guidance for business decision makers and medical personnel to plan effective responses to pandemic-scale infectious diseases. To aid organizations’ ability to operate and effectively contribute to societal responses, specific oil and gas-related risks and strategies are considered in the context of global, national and local responses to pandemic outbreaks. The document also identifies external organizations that can support management and operational personnel in the event of a pandemic.

ConocoPhillips Completes Acquisition of Concho Resources

January 15, 2021 HOUSTON – ConocoPhillips today announced that it has completed its acquisition of Concho Resources (“Concho”) following approval by shareholders of both companies. “We appreciate the strong support for this transaction from the shareholders of both companies, which we view as further affirmation of the significant benefits it will deliver,” said Ryan Lance, ConocoPhillips chairman and chief executive officer. “This acquisition results in the combination of two premier companies that can lead the structural change for our vital industry that’s critical to investors. We expect the company to deliver differential performance on three key mandates: providing affordable energy to the world, generating superior returns on and of capital and demonstrating ESG leadership.” Lance added, “I also welcome Tim Leach to ConocoPhillips’ board of directors and executive leadership team. Tim and his organization built a best-in-class Permian company and we both look forward to creating significant value from this transaction. Thanks to the considerable efforts of our transition teams over these past few months, we’re off to a fast start toward seamlessly integrating our two companies and building momentum as a sector leader.” ConocoPhillips and Concho will each file the vote results for their respective special shareholder meetings on a Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, each share of Concho common stock was converted into the right to receive 1.46 shares of ConocoPhillips common stock at the effective time of the merger.
