Big Oil is ExxonMobil, Shell, BP, Aramco, Total, Chevron—companies of that magnitude.
Regardless, Vermillion is the only oil company that sued anyone and did it a few years ago. Where’s the evidence of Big Oil currently suing?
- gomijacogeo 4y agoMy impression is this is a technique of the 2nd tier energy companies (e.g. https://www.isds.bilaterals.org/vattenfall-vs-germany-i-coal-fired https://www.isds.bilaterals.org/vattenfall-vs-germany-i-coal...). Companies like BP, Total, etc operate more like nation-states and have other tools available. I'd still call them "Big Energy" however.
