Thai program
promotes learning
To help students learn more about
science and technology outside
the classroom, Esso Thailand
sponsors full-day seminars for
about 1,500 teachers each year.
The program, organized by
the country’s National Science
Museum (NSM), encourages educators
to promote learning in other
venues, particularly by visiting science
and technology museums
and facilitites run by NSM.
A number of Esso Thailand managers
participate, and take turns
giving the Energy Outlook and
Advanced Fuels presentations to
educators attending the seminars.
“This is a unique program,”
says Mongkolnimit Auacherdkul,
public affairs manager, “and our
speakers are always pleased to
get involved and meet the science
teachers from across the country.
The teachers share what they
learn with students, who not only
increase their knowledge of technical
subjects, but also gain a better
understanding of ExxonMobil and
the energy business.”
Mongkolnimit Auacherdkul, public
affairs manager for Esso Thailand,
answers a question from a teacher
about the company’s energy outlook.

The jetty at South
Hook LNG receiving
terminal allows berthing
of the world’s
largest LNG vessels.
First South Hook cargo
The first liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo has arrived at the
South Hook LNG receiving terminal in Milford Haven, Wales.
The terminal adds to the United Kingdom’s LNG import capacity
and energy diversity with the ability to deliver up to 2 billion
cubic feet of gas daily into the natural gas grid when it reaches
full operational capacity later this year.
South Hook LNG Terminal Company Ltd. is owned by Qatar
Petroleum (67.5 percent), ExxonMobil (24.15 percent) and Total
(8.35 percent).
An inauguration ceremony commemorating South Hook
was held last month, attended by HM The Queen of the United
Kingdom, His Highness Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani,
Amir of the State of Qatar, other members of both royal families
and other dignitaries. Rex W. Tillerson represented ExxonMobil
at the event.
Dr. Bernard
Harris entertains
and encourages
students in Detroit
as part of The
Dream Tour,
presented by
ExxonMobil.
Second year of Dream Tour
ExxonMobil, in conjunction with Dr. Bernard Harris and
The Harris Foundation, has announced the schedule for
the second year of The Dream Tour, a program designed
to help middle school students across the country reach
their potential through the power of strong math and science
skills.
“Today’s students are different from my generation in
that they’ve had technology in their hands since birth,”
said Dr. Harris, a former NASA astronaut and the first
African American to walk in space.
This year’s tour is expected to draw more than
12,200 students at schools in Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit,
Houston, Indianapolis, Miami, Minneapolis/St. Paul,
Mobile, Oakland and Seattle.
