Does EXXON MOBIL CORP have an economic moat?

We don't publish a Moat Score for EXXON MOBIL CORP (XOM): its SEC filings don't provide enough comparable data to score at least four of the five filters, and the Index records each gap rather than a guessed number. Missing inputs: revenue and EPS trend, pricing power, returns on capital, balance-sheet safety, capital discipline.
