TotalEnergies SE (NYSE: TTE) is a French multinational integrated energy company engaged across the full energy value chain. Founded in 1924 as Compagnie Française des Pétroles, the company grew through a series of mergers and expansions—most notably with Petrofina and Elf Aquitaine around the turn of the millennium—and rebranded to TotalEnergies in 2021 to reflect a broader focus on multiple energy sources. It is organized to operate across upstream and downstream activities while pursuing a transition toward lower-carbon energy solutions.
In upstream, TotalEnergies explores for and produces crude oil and natural gas globally. Its midstream and downstream operations include liquefied natural gas (LNG), refining, petrochemicals and the manufacture of fuels, lubricants and bitumen. The company also maintains global trading and shipping operations to support commodity flows and supply chains. In recent years TotalEnergies has substantially expanded its Gas, Renewables & Power segment, investing in solar and wind projects, electricity generation, hydrogen, biofuels and energy storage as part of a strategy to grow its low-carbon energy offerings alongside traditional hydrocarbons.
TotalEnergies operates in a large number of countries worldwide and serves markets across Europe, the Americas, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Its integrated business model combines exploration and production, refining and chemistry, marketing and services, and trading to meet diverse energy needs. The company is led by Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Patrick Pouyanné. TotalEnergies positions itself to balance near-term energy demand with a strategic shift toward decarbonization and diversified energy solutions for industrial and consumer customers globally.
