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.

In addition to its traditional oil and gas ventures, Chevron is actively pursuing initiatives in renewable energy.

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.
