ENEOS Corporation (ENEOS株式会社,ENEOSU kabushiki gaisha), formerlyJXTG Nippon Oil & Energy Corporation (JXTGエネルギー株式会社,JXTG Enerugī Kabushiki-gaisha), orNOC orShin-Nisseki (新日石) is a Japanesepetroleum company. Its businesses include exploration, importation, and refining of crude oil; the manufacture and sale of petroleum products, including fuels and lubricants; and other energy-related activities. It is the largest oil company in Japan, and in recent years it has been expanding its operations in other countries.

Its products are sold under the ENEOS brand, which is also used for service stations. It also previously operated service stations under theEsso andMobil brands under license fromExxonMobil. In 2019, as a result of JX Holdings' merger with TonenGeneral Group in 2017 to formJXTG Holdings, both brands were phased out in favour of ENEOS EneJet.^[1]

The company was established 1888 as the "Nippon Oil" (日本石油,Nihon Sekiyu), or "Nisseki" (日石) for short. In 1999, the company merged with and absorbed the former "Mitsubishi Oil" (三菱石油,Mitsubishi Sekiyu). The merged company was called "Nippon Mitsubishi Oil" (日石三菱,Nisseki Mitsubishi) until 2002, when it was renamed back to Nippon Oil Corporation. In 2010, NOC merged withNippon Mining to formJX Holdings, and Nippon Oil was renamed JX Nippon Oil & Energy. In 2017, JX and TonenGeneral were merged into JXTG Holdings. The company's name was slightly modified to JXTG Nippon Oil & Energy. In June 2020, ENEOS Corporation was adopted as the current name.

While developing the Rang Don Oil Field and Helang Gas Field NOEX, part of the Nippon Oil Corporation, conducted environmental impact assessments. These assessments helped them implement management plans based on the results of the assessments, specifically, how to reduce the impact of the fields on surrounding sea areas.^[6]

In 2005, Nippon Oil and Ebara-Ballard announced they were going to start field testing a 1 kW household proton-exchange membrane fuel cell system that usescoal oil as fuel. It was the world's first household test with the system. The system achieves a greater power-generation efficiency than normal heating. The system can operate in temperatures as low as -10 deg C.^[7]
