Fortune 500 rank: 1

2011 profit: $41.6 billion

????It looks as if Exxon Mobil has it all. It's not only No. 1 on this year's Fortune 500 list, it has also topped our list of most profitable companies. With a total profit of $41 billion for 2011, Exxon surpassed all of its Big Oil competitors, including BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, and Shell.

????The company repurchased 278 million shares of its common stock at a gross of $22.1 billion. It also struck a deal with oil giant Rosneft to explore for oil in Russian-controlled portions of the Arctic Ocean and Black Sea.

Chevron

財富美國五百強排名：3

2011年盈利：269億美元

????雪佛龍公司保住了今年財富美國五百強的第三名位置，在盈利能力最強20家公司的榜單上上升至第二名。2011年第四季度的銷售額及其他營運收益為580億美元，去年同期為520億美元，主要源自原油價格和成品油價格的增長。

Fortune 500 rank: 3

2011 profit: $26.9 billion

????Chevron held on to its third place spot on the Fortune 500 this year but moved up to No. 2 on our most profitable list. Sales and other operating revenues in the fourth quarter of 2011 were at $58 billion, up from $52 billion in the previous year's quarter, thanks to higher prices for crude oil and refined products.

????The oil company is still dealing with accusations from Brazilian authorities that it had not taken full responsibility for an oil spill off the coast of Rio de Janeiro last November.
