JUNEAU, Alaska — An antitrust lawsuit filed Monday against Exxon Mobil Corp. and BP PLC claims the two oil giants are restricting the nation’s supply of natural gas and keeping prices at record highs.

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Fairbanks, says the two companies acted together to eliminate competition for the exploration, development and marketing of natural gas from Alaska’s North Slope to U.S. markets.
