Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) is a renowned American multinational energy corporation headquartered in San Ramon, California. As the second-largest direct descendant of Standard Oil, Chevron is a significant player in the global oil and gas industry, operating in over 180 countries. The company's core business includes the exploration, production, and refining of oil and natural gas. Chevron's production activities span North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia, with a daily output of 3.1 million barrels of oil equivalent, encompassing 7.7 million cubic feet of natural gas and 1.8 million barrels of liquids.
Chevron's refining operations are primarily based in the United States and Asia, boasting a total refining capacity of 1.8 million barrels of oil per day. As of the end of 2023, the company reported proven reserves of 11.1 billion barrels of oil equivalent, including 6.0 billion barrels of liquids and 30.4 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
In addition to its traditional oil and gas ventures, Chevron is actively pursuing initiatives in renewable energy. A notable example is its partnership with Brightmark Fund Holdings LLC, forming Brightmark RNG Holdings LLC. This venture focuses on producing renewable natural gas (RNG) from dairy manure using anaerobic digestion technology. The latest project under this initiative is the Eloy Renewable Natural Gas center in Eloy, Arizona, which aims to capture methane from local dairy operations, converting it into RNG, fertilizer, and water. This circular approach not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions but also enhances agricultural and energy systems.
The project has significant environmental and economic benefits, including reducing carbon-dioxide equivalent emissions by over 900,000 tons through anaerobic digestion. It also supports the local economy by creating jobs and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
Chevron continues to innovate and adapt in the rapidly evolving energy sector. The company is committed to lowering the carbon intensity of its operations and expanding into new, lower-carbon businesses such as hydrogen, carbon capture, and other emerging technologies.

Chevron Shipping and Wärtsilä have partnered to convert engines on six LNG carriers from dual-fuel to spark gas operation, aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by lowering methane slip. This industry-first initiative supports Chevron's efforts to reduce the carbon intensity of its operations. The conversion project, designed to modify engines for optimized combustion, is expected to reduce methane emissions intensity of Chevron's LNG fleet. Methane, although shorter-lived in the atmosphere than CO₂, traps 25-30 times more heat over a 100-year period. The order for the first two vessels was booked by Wärtsilä in Q3 2024. This technology complements Wärtsilä's portfolio of solutions for reducing methane emissions from vessels, leveraging their nearly three decades of experience in LNG technology.
Chevron Shipping Company and Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) have agreed to install the Wind Challenger, a hard sail wind-assisted propulsion system, on a new LNG carrier. This marks the world's first LNG carrier equipped with such a system. The vessel, under construction at Hanwha Ocean's Geoje Shipyard, is scheduled for delivery in 2026.
The Wind Challenger system, developed by MOL and Oshima Shipbuilding, aims to reduce fuel consumption and GHG emissions using telescopic sails. The installation is designed to minimize impact on existing LNG carrier designs and maintain ship-shore compatibility. This collaboration represents a significant step towards reducing carbon intensity in the LNG fleet and aligns with MOL's goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
