The region's energy sector came roaring back in this year's top 150 list of publicly traded companies.

The annual ranking, compiled by Bloomberg for The Dallas Morning News, compares public companies from a seven-county area in North Texas., based on revenue at the end of 2017.

At the top of the list for 2018 was Irving-based Exxon Mobil, which raked in $237.2 billion in revenues last year. But all 38 energy companies that made the list saw their revenues grow.

This comes after two consecutive years of falling revenues in the industry as the price of oil languished below $50 a barrel. Now, with prices hovering around $70 a barrel, the industry is booming.
