The new five-year agreement builds on the oil and gas major’s participation in Princeton’s E-filliates Partnership, which started in 2015.
Princeton’s E-filliates Partnership is a corporate membership programme that aims to help accelerate research, as well as develop and deploy energy and environmental technologies.
ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company research and development vice-president Vijay Swarup said: “We collaborate with leading universities and institutions around the world to find meaningful and scalable solutions to develop lower-emission technologies.
“Our work with Princeton University’s Andlinger Center builds on decades-long interactions with the university, supporting the essential research in science, engineering and humanities needed to address national and global issues.”

By GlobalDataExxonMobil noted that Princeton University scientists are also working with the company on the carbonate fuel cells development.
Andlinger Center director Yueh-Lin (Lynn) Loo said: “We challenge ExxonMobil scientists to explore the fundamental scientific questions that underpin technology development in new ways, and they challenge our scientists to think about the practical considerations of scaling technologies.
“It’s a win-win and ultimately helps us carry out a core tenet of our mission, which is to reduce emissions globally while improving access to energy around the world.”
In April this year, ExxonMobil said it is field testing eight detection technologies to reduce methane gas emissions.
In April 2019, ExxonMobil decided to invest more than $1bn to expand the capacity of the Fawley refinery in the UK.
