Exxon did not disclose whether it received any compensation for assets worth more than $4 billion. A spokesman for Exxon declined to comment on whether the company had taken steps to bring the case to international arbitration. This is the option mentioned in August.
 
"We have made every effort to engage with the Russian government and other stakeholders," an Exxon Mobil spokesman said.
“我們已盡一切努力與俄羅斯政府和其他利益相關(guān)者接觸，”?？松梨诎l(fā)言人說。
 
The company said it had "safely left Russia" after the government "unilaterally terminated" its interest in the Sakhalin-1 oil and gas project, the country's largest project.
