What the ExxonMobil Logo Colors Mean?
The ExxonMobil logo colors were set by Raymond Loewy, who drew the Exxon logotype with two overlapping red X's, a shape distinctive enough to trademark on its own. Red carries the wordmark; blue is the calmer color used for Mobil and for corporate text. The old Esso tiger, from early 1900s Norway, is a separate mascot rather than part of the logo.
ExxonMobil Logo Color History
ExxonMobil logo color history begins in 1972, when Esso, Enco and Humble were folded into the single red Exxon mark. The 1999 merger added Mobil, whose own logo keeps a red o in a blue word, so red stayed the lead color for the combined company.
ExxonMobil Logo Fonts
ExxonMobil logo fonts are a custom logotype by Loewy, never released. A firm slab or a bold grotesque is the nearest match.

Brand colors are chosen for recognition, not for legibility. A failing value here is normal. It means use it as a fill, not as text.
