Here's What Exxon 'Lost' From Russia Sanctions

Western sanctions against Russia are costing America's most powerful company a few hundred million bucks. A billion to be exact.
Exxon Mobil XOM +0.08% said in a 10-k filing with the SEC on Wednesday that it lost a maximum of $1 billion from sanctions.  In July 2014, the European Union and United States imposed sanctions on the Russian energy sector. The West believes Russia is behind much of the civil unrest in eastern Ukraine. Sanctions began in March 2014 following Russia's annexation of Crimea, a Black Sea peninsula that was once part of Ukraine. But the punishment was kicked up a notch in July with sanctions banning American companies from doing business with Russian oil and gas drillers. That hurt a new $723 million joint venture between Exxon and Rosneft , Russia's largest state owned oil company. This year, the two companies were to start drilling for oil in the Kara Sea, located in the Arctic Circle in northern Russia.
