About Beaumont

With a population of more than 118,000, Beaumont, Texas, is located in the Gulf Coast region of the United States, on the Neches River, about 85 miles east of Houston, the nation’s fourth-largest city. Beaumont has been home to the oil industry since the days of the Spindletop oil boom and, along with nearby Port Arthur and Orange, is part of the Golden Triangle industrial area on the Texas Gulf Coast.

Those who live and work in Beaumont will find a close-knit community with friendly people and opportunities to explore the area through its many restaurants, businesses, museums, and nature parks.

Built along the banks of the Neches River in 1903, the original ExxonMobil Beaumont refining facilities have grown into an integrated petrochemical complex spanning 2,700 acres and have contributed significantly to the economic and social landscape of southeast Texas. In fact, 1 in 7 jobs in Jefferson County are linked to ExxonMobil, making it an integral part of the community.

With a workforce of more than 5,500, the Beaumont complex includes a refinery, chemical plant, polyethylene plant, and lubricant blending and packaging plant. The complex is part of ExxonMobil’s current building and expansion plans for the U.S. Gulf Coast.

Not only does Beaumont produce Mobil 1, the world’s leading synthetic motor oil, it is also the only manufacturer of Mobil Aviation Greases. Other products include fuels and chemical compounds used in a diverse range of products, including plastics, nylon, shrink wrap, and more.
