strategy
chevron’s strategy is to leverage our strengths to safely deliver lower
carbon energy to a growing world
Our objective is to safely deliver higher returns, lower carbon and superior shareholder value in any business
environment. We are building on our capabilities, assets and customer relationships as we aim to lead in lower
carbon intensity oil, products and natural gas, as well as advance new products and solutions that reduce the
carbon emissions of major industries. We aim to grow our traditional oil and gas business, lower the carbon
intensity of our operations and grow new lower carbon businesses in renewable fuels, hydrogen, carbon
capture, offsets and other emerging technologies.

asset class: deepwater


We are a leader in applying new technologies to tap into the oil that lies deep beneath the ocean floor,
and doing so in a lower carbon way. Our deepwater assets include fields offshore of Angola, Australia,
Equatorial Guinea, Indonesia, Israel, Nigeria and Republic of Congo and in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, with
deepwater exploration activities ongoing offshore 12 countries. Our U.S. Gulf of Mexico facilities are some
of the lowest carbon intensity‑producing assets in the world.

The events of the past year have
defined the energy challenge facing
the world: meeting the energy
demands of today while building the
lower carbon energy system of
tomorrow. This will require advancing
technologies, accelerating solutions,
harnessing the power of markets and
unleashing human ingenuity. Progress
depends on scalable solutions that
deliver affordable, reliable and
ever‑cleaner energy.

the energy landscape
Post‑pandemic demand recovery, coupled with
supply uncertainty, created energy market volatility
during the past year. Geopolitical events
threatened to disrupt energy supply, OPEC spare
capacity declined and inventories were at low
levels relative to demand. At the same time, in
much of the world, strong consumer spending
and increased travel drove an oil demand increase
estimated at 2.3 million barrels per day. In 2023
demand is projected to grow to greater than 101
million barrels per day, an all‑time high.

Natural gas demand declined slightly last year, as


higher prices related to supply disruptions
resulting from the Russia‑Ukraine conflict
prompted fuel substitution and demand
destruction, especially in Europe. Global trade
flows of liquefied natural gas (LNG) pivoted to
Europe, keeping LNG capacity tight. Global
natural gas demand is projected to grow in
2023.

As growth in the global economy drives greater


overall energy demand, investment in lower
carbon energy technologies will also continue to
grow.

Business Environment and Outlook


Chevron Corporation is a global energy company with substantial business activities in the following countries: Angola,
Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Israel, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Nigeria,
the Partitioned Zone between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, the Philippines, Republic of Congo, Singapore, South Korea,
Thailand, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Venezuela.
The company’s objective is to safely deliver higher returns, lower carbon and superior shareholder value in any business
environment. Earnings of the company depend mostly on the profitability of its upstream business segment. The most
significant factor affecting the results of operations for the upstream segment is the price of crude oil, which is determined
in global markets outside of the company’s control. In the company’s downstream business, crude oil is the largest cost
component of refined products. Periods of sustained lower commodity prices could result in the impairment or write-off of
specific assets in future periods and cause the company to adjust operating expenses, including employee reductions, and
capital expenditures, along with other measures intended to improve financial performance.
Governments, companies, communities, and other stakeholders are increasingly supporting efforts to address climate
change. International initiatives and national, regional and state legislation and regulations that aim to directly or indirectly
reduce GHG emissions are in various stages of design, adoption, and implementation. These policies and programs, some
of which support the global net zero emissions ambitions of the Paris Agreement, can change the amount of energy
consumed, the rate of energy-demand growth, the energy mix, and the relative economics of one fuel versus another.
Implementation of jurisdiction-specific policies and programs can be dependent on, and can affect the pace of,
technological advancements, the granting of necessary permits by governing authorities, the availability of cost-effective,
verifiable carbon credits, the availability of suppliers that can meet sustainability and other standards, evolving regulatory
or other requirements affecting ESG standards or other disclosures, and evolving standards for tracking and reporting on
emissions and emission reductions and removals.
Some of these policies and programs include renewable and low carbon fuel standards, such as the Renewable Fuel
Standard program in the U.S. and California’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard; programs that price GHG emissions, including

Chevron Corporation 2022 Annual Report


32
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

California’s Cap-and-Trade Program; performance standards, including methane-specific regulation such as the U.S.
EPA’s forthcoming New Source Performance Standard and Emissions Guidelines for Existing Sources; and measures that
provide various incentives for lower carbon activities, including carbon capture and storage and the production of hydrogen
and sustainable aviation fuel, such as the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act. Requirements for these and other similar policies
and programs are complex, ever changing, program specific and encompass: (1) the blending of renewable fuels into
transportation fuels; (2) the purchasing, selling, utilizing and retiring of allowances and carbon credits; and (3) other
emissions reduction measures including efficiency improvements and capturing GHG emissions. While these compliance
policies and programs may have negative impacts on the company now and in the future including, but not limited to, the
displacement of hydrocarbon and other products, these policies have also enabled opportunities for Chevron as it grows
and aims to further grow its lower carbon businesses. For example, the acquisition of Renewable Energy Group, Inc.
(REG) in 2022 grew the company’s renewable fuels production capacity and increased the company’s carbon credit
generation activities. Although we expect the company’s costs to comply with these policies and programs to continue to
increase, these costs currently do not have a material impact on the company’s financial condition or results of operations.
Significant uncertainty remains as to the pace in which the transition to a lower carbon future will progress, which is
dependent, in part, on further advancements and changes in policy, technology, and customer and consumer preferences.
The level of expenditure required to comply with new or potential climate change-related laws and regulations and the
amount of additional investments needed in new or existing technology or facilities, such as carbon capture and storage, is
difficult to predict with certainty and is expected to vary depending on the actual laws and regulations enacted, available
technology options, customer and consumer preferences, the company’s activities, and market conditions. As discussed
below, in 2021, the company announced planned capital spend of approximately $10 billion through 2028 in lower carbon
investments. Although the future is uncertain, many published outlooks conclude that fossil fuels will remain a significant
part of an energy system that increasingly incorporates lower carbon sources of supply for many years to come.
Chevron supports the Paris Agreement’s global approach to governments addressing climate change and continues to take
actions to help lower the carbon intensity of its operations while continuing to meet the demand for energy. Chevron
believes that broad, market-based mechanisms are the most efficient approach to addressing GHG emission reductions.
Chevron integrates climate change-related issues and the regulatory and other responses to these issues into its strategy and
planning, capital investment reviews, and risk management tools and processes, where it believes they are applicable. They
are also factored into the company’s long-range supply, demand, and energy price forecasts. These forecasts reflect
estimates of long-range effects from climate change-related policy actions, such as electric vehicle and renewable fuel
penetration, energy efficiency standards, and demand response to oil and natural gas prices.
The company will continue to develop oil and gas resources to meet customers’ and consumers’ demand for energy. At the
same time, Chevron believes that the future of energy is lower carbon. The company will continue to maintain flexibility in
its portfolio to be responsive to changes in policy, technology, and customer and consumer preferences. Chevron aims to
grow its traditional oil and gas business, lower the carbon intensity of its operations and grow lower carbon businesses in
renewable fuels, hydrogen, carbon capture, offsets, and other emerging technologies. To grow its lower carbon businesses,
Chevron plans to target sectors of the economy where emissions are harder to abate or that cannot be easily electrified,
while leveraging the company’s capabilities, assets and customer relationships. The company’s traditional oil and gas
business may increase or decrease depending upon regulatory or market forces, among other factors.
In 2021, Chevron announced the following aspiration and targets that are aligned with its lower carbon strategy:
2050 Net Zero Upstream Aspiration Chevron aspires to achieve net zero for upstream production Scope 1 and 2 GHG
emissions on an equity basis by 2050. The company believes accomplishing this aspiration depends on, among other
things, partnerships with multiple stakeholders including customers, continuing progress on commercially viable
technology, government policy, successful negotiations for carbon capture and storage and nature-based projects,
availability and acceptability of cost-effective, verifiable offsets in the global market, and granting of necessary permits by
governing authorities.
2028 Upstream Production GHG Intensity Targets These metrics include Scope 1, direct emissions, and Scope 2, indirect
emissions from imported electricity and steam, and are net of emissions from exported electricity and steam. The targeted
2028 reductions from 2016 on an equity ownership basis include a:
• 40 percent reduction in oil production GHG intensity to 24 kilograms (kg) carbon dioxide equivalent per barrel of
oil-equivalent (CO2e/boe),
• 26 percent reduction in gas production GHG intensity to 24 kg CO2e/boe,

Chevron Corporation 2022 Annual Report


33
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

• 53 percent reduction in methane intensity to 2 kg CO2e/boe, and


• 66 percent reduction in flaring GHG intensity to 3 kg CO2e/boe.
The company also targets no routine flaring by 2030. We have set 2016 as our baseline to align with the year the Paris
Agreement entered into force, and the company plans to update the metrics every five years in line with the Paris
Agreement stocktakes. We believe these updates will provide additional transparency on the company’s progress toward its
net zero aspiration.
2028 Portfolio Carbon Intensity Target The company also introduced a portfolio carbon intensity (PCI) metric, which is a
measure of the carbon intensity across the full value chain of Chevron’s entire business. This metric encompasses the
company’s upstream and downstream business and includes Scope 1 (direct emissions), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from
imported electricity and steam), and certain Scope 3 (primarily emissions from use of sold products) emissions. The
company’s PCI target is 71 grams (g) carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per megajoule (MJ) by 2028, a greater than five
percent reduction from 2016.
Planned Lower-Carbon Capital Spend through 2028 In 2021, the company established planned capital spend of
approximately $10 billion through 2028 to advance its lower carbon strategy, which includes approximately $2 billion to
lower the carbon intensity of its traditional oil and gas operations, and approximately $8 billion for lower carbon
investments in renewable fuels, hydrogen and carbon capture and offsets. We anticipate setting additional capital spending
targets as the company progresses toward its 2050 upstream production Scope 1 and 2 net zero aspiration and further grows
its lower carbon business lines.
During 2021 and 2022, the company spent $4.8 billion in lower carbon investments, including $2.9 billion associated with
the acquisition of REG.
Refer to “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, on pages 20 through 26 of the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
further discussion of GHG regulation and climate change and the associated risks to Chevron’s business, including the
risks impacting Chevron’s lower carbon strategy and its aspirations, targets and plans.
Income Taxes The effective tax rate for the company can change substantially during periods of significant earnings
volatility. This is due to the mix effects that are impacted by both the absolute level of earnings or losses and whether they
arise in higher or lower tax rate jurisdictions. As a result, a decline or increase in the effective income tax rate in one period
may not be indicative of expected results in future periods. Additional information related to the company’s
effective income tax rate is included in Note 17 Taxes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), enacted in the United States on August 16, 2022, imposes several new taxes that will
be effective in 2023, including a 15 percent minimum tax on book income and a 1 percent excise tax on stock repurchases.
The IRA also implements various incentives for lower carbon activities, including carbon capture and storage and the
production of hydrogen and sustainable aviation fuel, and extends the federal biodiesel mixture excise tax credit through
December 31, 2024. We do not currently expect the IRA to have a material impact on our results of operations.
Supply Chain and Inflation Impacts The company is actively managing its contracting, procurement, and supply chain
activities to effectively manage costs and facilitate supply chain resiliency and continuity in support of the company’s
operational goals. Third party costs for capital, exploration, and operating expenses can be subject to external factors
beyond the company’s control including, but not limited to: severe weather or civil unrest, delays in construction, global
and local supply chain distribution issues, inflation, tariffs or other taxes imposed on goods or services, and market-based
prices charged by the industry’s material and service providers. Chevron utilizes contracts with various pricing
mechanisms, which may result in a lag before the company’s costs reflect changes in market trends.
Inflation continued to be a key factor impacting the economy over the last year. For key oil and gas industry inputs (e.g.
rigs, well services, etc.), markets are likely to remain tight with any upward pressure tied directly to possible increases in
activity. In contrast, inflationary pressures have started to reduce for non-oil and gas specific goods and services as a result
of reduced supply chain disruptions and a slowdown in economic activity. Chevron’s 2023 capital expenditure budget
assumes cost inflation that averages in the mid-single digits with certain areas higher, such as in the Permian Basin that
assumes low double-digit cost inflation. Chevron believes it is well positioned to manage its costs for 2023, in large part
due to indexed contracts and secured supplies for critical inputs.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Refer to the “Cautionary Statements Relevant to Forward-Looking Information” on page 2 and to “Risk Factors” in Part I,
Item 1A, on pages 20 through 26 of the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of some of the inherent
risks that could materially impact the company’s results of operations or financial condition.
Other Impacts The company continually evaluates opportunities to dispose of assets that are not expected to provide
sufficient long-term value and to acquire assets or operations complementary to its asset base to help augment the
company’s financial performance and value growth. Asset dispositions and restructurings may result in significant gains or
losses in future periods.
The company closely monitors developments in the financial and credit markets, the level of worldwide economic activity,
and the implications for the company of movements in prices for crude oil and natural gas. Management takes these
developments into account in the conduct of daily operations and for business planning.
The COVID-19 pandemic caused a significant decrease in demand for our products and created disruptions and volatility in
the global marketplace beginning late in first quarter 2020. Demand has largely recovered as of year-end 2022; however,
there continues to be uncertainty around the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our future results, which
could be material.
Earnings trends for the company’s major business areas are described as follows:
Upstream Earnings for the upstream segment are closely aligned with industry prices for crude oil and natural gas. Crude
oil and natural gas prices are subject to external factors over which the company has no control, including product demand
connected with global economic conditions, industry production and inventory levels, technology advancements,
production quotas or other actions imposed by OPEC+ countries, actions of regulators, weather-related damage and
disruptions, competing fuel prices, natural and human causes beyond the company’s control such as the COVID-19
pandemic, and regional supply interruptions or fears thereof that may be caused by military conflicts, civil unrest or
political uncertainty. Any of these factors could also inhibit the company’s production capacity in an affected region. The
company closely monitors developments in the countries in which it operates and holds investments and seeks to manage
risks in operating its facilities and businesses.
The longer-term trend in earnings for the upstream segment is also a function of other factors, including the company’s
ability to find or acquire and efficiently produce crude oil and natural gas, changes in fiscal terms of contracts, the pace of
energy transition, and changes in tax, environmental and other applicable laws and regulations.
Chevron has interests in Venezuelan assets operated by independent affiliates. Chevron has been conducting limited
activities in Venezuela consistent with the authorization provided pursuant to general licenses issued by the United States
government. In fourth quarter 2022, Chevron received License 41 from the United States government, enabling the
company to resume activity in Venezuela subject to certain limitations. The financial results for Chevron’s business in
Venezuela are being recorded as non-equity investments since 2020, where income is only recognized when cash is
received and production and reserves are not included in the company's results. Crude oil liftings in Venezuela commenced
in first quarter 2023, which are expected to positively impact the company’s results going forward.
Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC), an equity affiliate, operates a 935-mile crude oil export pipeline from the Tengiz Field
in Kazakhstan to tanker-loading facilities at Novorossiysk on the Russian coast of the Black Sea, providing the main export
route for crude oil production from TCO, Karachaganak and other producing fields in Kazakhstan. The tanker loading
facilities at Novorossiysk consist of three single point mooring facilities, with availability of two or more required to
operate at full capacity. CPC is capable of operating at approximately 70 percent of capacity with one single point mooring
facility in service. Two of the three offshore loading moorings at the CPC marine terminal were taken out of service during
August 2022 for equipment repairs identified during normal maintenance. Repairs were completed in fourth quarter 2022.
Production at TCO was not impacted by this CPC outage given turnaround activity at TCO and at other regional producers
that ship through CPC. However, there is a risk that production from TCO could be curtailed in the future should
availability of export facilities be constrained.
Governments (including Russia) have imposed and may impose additional sanctions and other trade laws, restrictions and
regulations that could lead to disruption in our ability to produce, transport and/or export crude in the region around Russia
and could have an adverse effect on CPC operations and/or the company’s financial position. The financial impacts of such
risks, including presently imposed sanctions, are not currently material for the company; however, it remains uncertain how
long these conditions may last or how severe they may become.

Commodity Prices The following chart shows the trend in benchmark prices for Brent crude oil, West Texas Intermediate
(WTI) crude oil and U.S. Henry Hub natural gas. The Brent price averaged $101 per barrel for the full-year 2022,
compared to $71 in 2021. As of mid-February 2023, the Brent price was $85 per barrel. The WTI price averaged $95 per
barrel for the full-year 2022, compared to $68 in 2021. As of mid-February 2023, the WTI price was $79 per barrel. The
majority of the company’s equity crude production is priced based on the Brent benchmark.

Crude prices increased in 2022 driven by geopolitical risk, supply decisions by OPEC+ and continued demand recovery
due to the further easing of COVID-19 restrictions. The company’s average realization for U.S. crude oil and natural gas
liquids in 2022 was $77 per barrel, up 37 percent from 2021. The company’s average realization for international crude oil
and natural gas liquids in 2022 was $91 per barrel, up 41 percent from 2021.
In contrast to price movements in the global market for crude oil, prices for natural gas are also impacted by regional
supply and demand and infrastructure conditions in local markets. In the United States, prices at Henry Hub averaged $6.36
per thousand cubic feet (MCF) during 2022, compared with $3.85 per MCF during 2021. As of mid-February 2023, the
Henry Hub spot price was $2.40 per MCF. (See page 43 for the company’s average natural gas realizations for the U.S.).
Outside the United States, prices for natural gas also depend on a wide range of supply, demand and regulatory
circumstances. The company’s long-term contract prices for liquefied natural gas (LNG) are typically linked to crude oil
prices. Most of the equity LNG offtake from the operated Australian LNG projects is committed under binding long-term
contracts, with some sold in the Asian spot LNG market. International natural gas realizations averaged $9.75 per MCF
during 2022, compared with $5.93 per MCF during 2021, mainly due to higher LNG prices.
Production The company’s worldwide net oil-equivalent production in 2022 was 3 million barrels per day. About 27
percent of the company’s net oil-equivalent production in 2022 occurred in OPEC+ member countries of Angola,
Equatorial Guinea, Kazakhstan, Nigeria, the Partitioned Zone between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait and Republic of Congo.
The company estimates its net oil-equivalent production in 2023, assuming a Brent crude oil price of $80 per barrel, to be
flat to up 3 percent compared to 2022. This estimate is subject to many factors and uncertainties, including quotas or other
actions that may be imposed by OPEC+; price effects on entitlement volumes; changes in fiscal terms or restrictions on the
scope of company operations; delays in construction; reservoir performance; greater-than-expected declines in production
from mature fields; start-up or ramp-up of projects; fluctuations in demand for crude oil and natural gas in various markets;
weather conditions that may shut in production; civil unrest; changing geopolitics; delays in completion of maintenance
turnarounds; storage constraints or economic conditions that could lead to shut-in production; or other disruptions to
operations. The outlook for future production levels is also affected by the size and number of economic investment
opportunities and the time lag between initial exploration and the beginning of production. The company has increased its
investment emphasis on short-cycle projects.

Proved Reserves Net proved reserves for consolidated companies and affiliated companies totaled 11.2 billion barrels of oil-
equivalent at year-end 2022, a slight decrease from year-end 2021. The reserve replacement ratio in 2022 was 97
percent. The 5 and 10 year reserve replacement ratios were 92 percent and 99 percent, respectively. Refer to Table V for a
tabulation of the company’s proved net oil and gas reserves by geographic area, at the beginning of 2020 and each year-
end from 2020 through 2022, and an accompanying discussion of major changes to proved reserves by geographic area for
the three-year period ending December 31, 2022.
Refer to the “Results of Operations” section on pages 39 and 40 for additional discussion of the company’s upstream
business.
Downstream Earnings for the downstream segment are closely tied to margins on the refining, manufacturing and
marketing of products that include gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, lubricants, fuel oil, fuel and lubricant additives, petrochemicals
and renewable fuels. Industry margins are sometimes volatile and can be affected by the global and regional supply-and-
demand balance for refined products and petrochemicals, and by changes in the price of crude oil, other refinery and
petrochemical feedstocks, and natural gas. Industry margins can also be influenced by inventory levels, geopolitical events,
costs of materials and services, refinery or chemical plant capacity utilization, maintenance programs, and disruptions at
refineries or chemical plants resulting from unplanned outages due to severe weather, fires or other operational events.
Other factors affecting profitability for downstream operations include the reliability and efficiency of the company’s
refining, marketing and petrochemical assets, the effectiveness of its crude oil and product supply functions, and the
volatility of tanker-charter rates for the company’s shipping operations, which are driven by the industry’s demand for
crude oil and product tankers. Other factors beyond the company’s control include the general level of inflation and energy
costs to operate the company’s refining, marketing and petrochemical assets, and changes in tax, environmental, and other
applicable laws and regulations.
Refining margins were higher in 2022 because of recovering demand for refined products, low product inventories, lower
industry refining capacity and lower product exports from Russia and China. Refining utilization was strong in 2022 to
keep pace with demand growth. Although refining margins were elevated and still remain above historical levels, they fell
considerably in late 2022. There are signs that higher refined product prices and concerns over macroeconomic conditions
are slowing demand.
The company’s most significant marketing areas are the West Coast and Gulf Coast of the United States and Asia Pacific.
Chevron operates or has significant ownership interests in refineries in each of these areas. Additionally, the company has a
growing presence in renewable fuels after acquiring REG.
Refer to the “Results of Operations” section on page 40 for additional discussion of the company’s downstream operations.
All Other consists of worldwide cash management and debt financing activities, corporate administrative functions,
insurance operations, real estate activities and technology companies.

U.S. Upstream
Millions of dollars 2022 2021 2020
Earnings (Loss) $ 12,621 $ 7,319 $ (1,608)

U.S. upstream reported earnings of $12.6 billion in 2022, compared with $7.3 billion in 2021. The increase was due to
higher realizations of $6.6 billion and higher sales volumes of $380 million, partially offset by higher operating
expenses of $1.1 billion largely due to an early contract termination at Sabine Pass and lower asset sale gains of $670
million.
The company’s average realization for U.S. crude oil and natural gas liquids in 2022 was $76.71 per barrel compared with
$56.06 in 2021. The average natural gas realization was $5.55 per thousand cubic feet in 2022, compared with $3.11 in
2021.
Net oil-equivalent production in 2022 averaged 1.18 million barrels per day, up 4 percent from 2021. The increase was
primarily due to net production increases in the Permian Basin.
The net liquids component of oil-equivalent production for 2022 averaged 888,000 barrels per day, up 3 percent from 2021.
Net natural gas production averaged 1.76 billion cubic feet per day in 2022, an increase of 4 percent from 2021.

Earnings (Loss)* $ 17,663 $ 8,499 $ (825)
*
Includes foreign currency effects: $ 816 $ 302 $ (285)

International upstream reported earnings of $17.7 billion in 2022, compared with $8.5 billion in 2021. The increase was
primarily due to higher realizations of $10.0 billion, lower operating expenses, lower depreciation, depletion and
amortization related to end of concessions in Indonesia and Thailand of $1.3 billion and asset sale gains of $220 million.
This was partially offset by lower sales volumes of $1.3 billion (also largely associated with the end of concessions in
Indonesia and Thailand) and write-off and impairment charges of $1.1 billion. Foreign currency effects had a favorable
impact on earnings of $514 million between periods.
The company’s average realization for international crude oil and natural gas liquids in 2022 was $90.71 per barrel
compared with $64.53 in 2021. The average natural gas realization was $9.75 per thousand cubic feet in 2022 compared
with $5.93 in 2021.
International net oil-equivalent production was 1.82 million barrels per day in 2022, down 7 percent from 2021. The
decrease was primarily due to lower production following expiration of the Erawan concession in Thailand and Rokan
concession in Indonesia.
The net liquids component of international oil-equivalent production was 831,000 barrels per day in 2022, a decrease of 13
percent from 2021. International net natural gas production of 5.92 billion cubic feet per day in 2022, a decrease of 2
percent from 2021.
U.S. Downstream
Millions of dollars 2022 2021 2020
Earnings (Loss) $ 5,394 $ 2,389 $ (571)

U.S. downstream reported earnings of $5.4 billion in 2022, compared with $2.4 billion in 2021. The increase was primarily
due to higher margins on refined product sales of $4.4 billion, partially offset by lower earnings from the 50 percent-owned
CPChem of $790 million and higher operating expenses of $790 million, largely due to planned turnarounds.
Total refined product sales of 1.23 million barrels per day in 2022 increased 8 percent from 2021, mainly due to higher
renewable fuel sales following the REG acquisition and higher jet fuel demand.
International Downstream

Earnings* $ 2,761 $ 525 $ 618
*
Includes foreign currency effects: $ 235 $ 185 $ (152)

International downstream earned $2.8 billion in 2022, compared with $525 million in 2021. The increase in earnings was
mainly due to higher margins on refined product sales of $2.7 billion and a favorable swing in foreign currency effects
of
$50 million between periods, partially offset by higher operating expenses of $650 million, largely due to transportation
costs.
Total refined product sales of 1.39 million barrels per day in 2022 were up 5 percent from 2021, mainly due to higher jet
fuel demand as travel restrictions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic continue to ease.

All Other consists of worldwide cash management and debt financing activities, corporate administrative functions,
insurance operations, real estate activities, and technology companies.
Net charges in 2022 decreased $133 million from 2021. The change between periods was mainly due to lower pension
settlement expense, loss on early debt retirement and lower interest expense, partially offset by the absence of 2021
favorable tax items and higher interest income. Foreign currency effects increased net charges by $201 million between
periods.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The increase in income tax expense in 2022 of $8.1 billion is due to the increase in total income before tax for the company
of $28.0 billion. The increase in income before taxes for the company is primarily the result of higher upstream realizations
and downstream margins.
U.S. income before tax increased from $9.7 billion in 2021 to $21.0 billion in 2022. This $11.3 billion increase in income
was primarily driven by higher upstream realizations and downstream margins, partially offset by higher operating
expenses and lower asset sale gains. The increase in income had a direct impact on the company’s U.S. income tax
resulting in an increase to tax expense of $2.9 billion between year-over-year periods, from $1.6 billion in 2021 to $4.5
billion in 2022.
International income before tax increased from $12.0 billion in 2021 to $28.7 billion in 2022. This $16.7 billion increase in
income was primarily driven by higher upstream realizations and downstream margins. The increased income primarily
drove the $5.2 billion increase in international income tax expense between year-over-year periods, from $4.3 billion in
2021 to $9.6 billion in 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


Sources and Uses of Cash The strength of the company’s balance sheet enables it to fund any timing differences
throughout the year between cash inflows and outflows.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities Total balances were $17.9 billion and $5.7 billion at December 31,
2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities in 2022 was $49.6 billion, compared to $29.2 billion in
2021, primarily due to higher upstream realizations and refining margins. Cash provided by operating activities was net of
contributions to employee pension plans of approximately $1.3 billion in 2022 and $1.8 billion in 2021. Proceeds and
deposits related to asset sales totaled $1.4 billion in each of the last two years. Returns of investment totaled $1.2 billion
and $439 million in 2022 and 2021, respectively. The returns of investment in 2022 were primarily from Angola LNG. As
of third quarter 2022, Angola LNG distributions were, and are expected to continue to be, largely reflected in cash
flow from operations. Cash flow from financing activities includes proceeds from shares issued for stock options of $5.8
billion in 2022, compared with $1.4 billion in 2021. Future cash proceeds from option exercises are expected to be lower
than in 2022.
Restricted cash of $1.4 billion and $1.2 billion at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, was held in cash and short-
term marketable securities and recorded as “Deferred charges and other assets” and “Prepaid expenses and other current
assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. These amounts are generally associated with upstream decommissioning
activities, tax payments and funds held in escrow for tax-deferred exchanges.
Dividends Dividends paid to common stockholders were $11.0 billion in 2022 and $10.2 billion in 2021.
Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities Total debt and finance lease liabilities were $23.3 billion at December 31, 2022, down
from $31.4 billion at year-end 2021.
The $8.1 billion decrease in total debt and finance lease liabilities during 2022 was primarily due to the repayment of long-
term notes that matured during the year and the early retirement of long-term notes. The company’s debt and finance lease
liabilities due within one year, consisting primarily of the current portion of long-term debt and redeemable long-term
obligations, totaled $6.0 billion at December 31, 2022, compared with $8.0 billion at year-end 2021. Of these amounts,
$4.1 billion and $7.8 billion were reclassified to long-term debt at the end of 2022 and 2021, respectively.
At year-end 2022, settlement of these obligations was not expected to require the use of working capital in 2023, as the
company had the intent and the ability, as evidenced by committed credit facilities, to refinance them on a long-term basis.
The company has access to a commercial paper program as a financing source for working capital or other short-term
needs. The company had no commercial paper outstanding as of December 31, 2022.
The company has an automatic shelf registration statement that expires in August 2023 for an unspecified amount of
nonconvertible debt securities issued by Chevron Corporation or Chevron U.S.A. Inc. (CUSA).

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The major debt rating agencies routinely evaluate the company’s debt, and the company’s cost of borrowing can increase
or decrease depending on these debt ratings. The company has outstanding public bonds issued by Chevron Corporation,
CUSA, Noble Energy, Inc. (Noble), and Texaco Capital Inc. Most of these securities are the obligations of, or guaranteed
by, Chevron Corporation and are rated AA- by Standard and Poor’s Corporation and Aa2 by Moody’s Investors Service.
The company’s U.S. commercial paper is rated A-1+ by Standard and Poor’s and P-1 by Moody’s. All of these ratings
denote high-quality, investment-grade securities.
The company’s future debt level is dependent primarily on results of operations, cash that may be generated from asset
dispositions, the capital program, lending commitments to affiliates and shareholder distributions. Based on its high-quality
debt ratings, the company believes that it has substantial borrowing capacity to meet unanticipated cash requirements.
During extended periods of low prices for crude oil and natural gas and narrow margins for refined products and
commodity chemicals, the company has the ability to modify its capital spending plans and discontinue or curtail the stock
repurchase program. This provides the flexibility to continue paying the common stock dividend and remain committed to
retaining the company’s high-quality debt ratings.
Committed Credit Facilities Information related to committed credit facilities is included in Note 19 Short-Term Debt.
Summarized Financial Information for Guarantee of Securities of Subsidiaries CUSA issued bonds that are fully and
unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis by Chevron Corporation (together, the “Obligor Group”). The tables
below contain summary financial information for Chevron Corporation, as Guarantor, excluding its consolidated
subsidiaries, and CUSA, as the issuer, excluding its consolidated subsidiaries. The summary financial information of the
Obligor Group is presented on a combined basis, and transactions between the combined entities have been eliminated.
Financial information for non-guarantor entities has been excluded.

Common Stock Repurchase Program The Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program in 2019, with a
maximum dollar limit of $25 billion and no set term limits (the “2019 Program”). During 2022, the company purchased
69.9 million shares for $11.25 billion under the 2019 Program. As of December 31, 2022, the company had purchased a
total of 131.4 million shares for $18.1 billion, resulting in $6.9 billion remaining under the 2019 Program. The company
currently expects to repurchase $3.75 billion of its common stock during the first quarter of 2023 under the 2019 Program
and will incur an additional one percent excise tax on such purchases as required by the IRA.
On January 25, 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of the company’s shares of common stock in an
aggregate amount of $75 billion. The $75 billion authorization takes effect on April 1, 2023 and does not have a fixed
expiration date (the “2023 Program”). It replaces the Board’s previous repurchase authorization of $25 billion from January
2019, which will terminate on March 31, 2023, after the completion of the company’s repurchases in the first quarter of
2023.
Repurchases of shares of the company’s common stock may be made from time to time in the open market, by block
purchases, in privately negotiated transactions or in such other manner as determined by the company. The timing of the

Chevron Corporation 2022 Annual Report

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

repurchases and the actual amount repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of the
company’s shares, general market and economic conditions, and other factors. The stock repurchase program does not
obligate the company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any
time.
Capital Expenditures Capital expenditures (Capex) primarily includes additions to fixed asset or investment accounts for
the company’s consolidated subsidiaries and is disclosed in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Capex by business
segment for 2022, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

Year ended December 31


Capex 2022 2021 2020
Millions of dollars U.S. Int’l. Total U.S. Int’l. Total U.S. Int’l. Total
Upstream $ 6,847 $ 2,718 $ 9,565 $ 4,554 $ 2,221 $ 6,775 $ 4,933 $ 2,555 $ 7,488

Capex for 2022 was $12.0 billion, 49 percent higher than 2021 due to increased upstream spend in the Permian Basin along
with higher spend in downstream, largely related to the formation of the Bunge North America, Inc. (Bunge) joint venture
and acquisition of the remaining interest in Beyond6, LLC (Beyond6).
The company estimates that 2023 Capex will be approximately $14 billion. In the upstream business, Capex is estimated to
be $11.5 billion and includes more than $4 billion for Permian Basin development and roughly $2 billion for other shale &
tight assets. More than 20 percent of upstream Capex is planned for projects in the Gulf of Mexico. Worldwide
downstream spending in 2023 is estimated to be $1.9 billion. Investments in technology businesses and other corporate
operations in 2023 are budgeted at $0.6 billion. Lower carbon Capex across all segments totals around $2 billion, including
approximately $0.5 billion to lower the carbon intensity of Chevron’s traditional operations and about $1 billion to increase
renewable fuels production capacity.
Affiliate capital expenditures (Affiliate Capex), which does not require cash outlays by the company, is expected to be $3
billion in 2023. Nearly half of Affiliate Capex is for Tengizchevroil’s FGP / WPMP Project in Kazakhstan and about a
third is for CPChem.
Capital and Exploratory Expenditures Capital and exploratory expenditures (C&E) is a key performance indicator and
provides the company’s investment level in its consolidated companies. This metric includes additions to fixed asset or
investment accounts along with exploration expense for its consolidated companies. Management uses this metric along
with Affiliate C&E (as defined below) to manage the allocation of capital across the company’s entire portfolio, funding
requirements and ultimately shareholder distributions.
The components of C&E are presented in the following table:

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

C&E for 2022 was $12.3 billion, 44 percent higher than 2021 due to increased upstream spend in the Permian Basin along
with higher spend in downstream, largely related to the formation of the Bunge joint venture and acquisition of the
remaining interest in Beyond6. The acquisitions of Renewable Energy Group Inc. and Noble are not included in the
company’s C&E or Capex.

Affiliate Capital and Exploratory Expenditures Equity affiliate capital and exploratory expenditures (Affiliate C&E) is
also a key performance indicator that provides the company’s share of investments in its significant equity affiliate
companies. This metric includes additions to fixed asset and investment accounts along with exploration expense in the
equity affiliate companies’ financial statements. Management uses this metric to assess possible funding needs and/or
shareholder distribution capacity of the company’s equity affiliate companies. Together with C&E, management also uses
Affiliate C&E to manage allocation of capital across the company’s entire portfolio, funding requirements and ultimately
shareholder distributions.
Affiliate C&E, which is the same as Affiliate Capex spend, by business segment for 2022, 2021 and 2020 is as follows:

Financial Ratios and Metrics


The following represent several metrics the company believes are useful measures to monitor the financial health of the
company and its performance over time:
Current Ratio Current assets divided by current liabilities, which indicates the company’s ability to repay its short-term
liabilities with short-term assets. The current ratio in all periods was adversely affected by the fact that Chevron’s
inventories are valued on a last-in, first-out basis. At year-end 2022, the book value of inventory was lower than
replacement costs, based on average acquisition costs during the year, by approximately $9.1 billion.

Current assets $ 50,343 $ 33,738 $ 26,078
Current liabilities 34,208 26,791 22,183
Current Ratio 1.5 1.3

Interest Coverage Ratio Income before income tax expense, plus interest and debt expense and amortization 1.2 of capitalized
interest, less net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, divided by before-tax interest costs. This ratio indicates the
company’s ability to pay interest on outstanding debt. The company’s interest coverage ratio in 2022 was higher than 2021
due to higher income.

Financial and Derivative Instrument Market Risk
The market risk associated with the company’s portfolio of financial and derivative instruments is discussed below. The
estimates of financial exposure to market risk do not represent the company’s projection of future market changes. The
actual impact of future market changes could differ materially due to factors discussed elsewhere in this report, including
those set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A.

Chevron Corporation 2022 Annual Report


49
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Derivative Commodity Instruments Chevron is exposed to market risks related to the price volatility of crude oil, refined
products, natural gas liquids, natural gas, liquefied natural gas and refinery feedstocks. The company uses
derivative commodity instruments to manage these exposures on a portion of its activity, including firm commitments and
anticipated transactions for the purchase, sale and storage of crude oil, refined products, natural gas liquids, natural
gas, liquefied natural gas and feedstock for company refineries. The company also uses derivative commodity
instruments for limited trading purposes. The results of these activities were not material to the company’s financial
position, results of operations or cash flows in 2022.
The company’s market exposure positions are monitored on a daily basis by an internal Risk Control group in accordance
with the company’s risk management policies. The company’s risk management practices and its compliance with policies
are reviewed by the Audit Committee of the company’s Board of Directors.
Derivatives beyond those designated as normal purchase and normal sale contracts are recorded at fair value on
the Consolidated Balance Sheet with resulting gains and losses reflected in income. Fair values are derived principally
from published market quotes and other independent third-party quotes. The change in fair value of Chevron’s
derivative commodity instruments in 2022 was not material to the company’s results of operations.
The company uses the Monte Carlo simulation method as its Value-at-Risk (VaR) model to estimate the
maximum potential loss in fair value, at the 95 percent confidence level with a one-day holding period, from the effect
of adverse changes in market conditions on derivative commodity instruments held or issued. Based on these inputs, the
VaR for the company’s primary risk exposures in the area of derivative commodity instruments at December 31, 2022
and 2021 was not material to the company’s cash flows or results of operations.
Foreign Currency The company may enter into foreign currency derivative contracts to manage some of its
foreign currency exposures. These exposures include revenue and anticipated purchase transactions, including foreign
currency capital expenditures and lease commitments. The foreign currency derivative contracts, if any, are recorded at fair
value on the balance sheet with resulting gains and losses reflected in income. There were no material open
foreign currency derivative contracts at December 31, 2022.
Interest Rates The company may enter into interest rate swaps from time to time as part of its overall strategy to manage
the interest rate risk on its debt. Interest rate swaps, if any, are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet with
resulting gains and losses reflected in income. At year-end 2022, the company had no interest rate swaps.

Transactions With Related Parties


Chevron enters into a number of business arrangements with related parties, principally its equity affiliates.
These arrangements include long-term supply or offtake agreements and long-term purchase agreements. Refer to
“Other Information” in Note 15 Investments and Advances for further discussion. Management believes these
agreements have been negotiated on terms consistent with those that would have been negotiated with an unrelated party.

Litigation and Other Contingencies

The company records asset retirement obligations when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of long-
lived assets and the liability can be reasonably estimated. These asset retirement obligations include costs related to

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

environmental issues. The liability balance of approximately $12.7 billion for asset retirement obligations at year-end 2022
is related primarily to upstream properties.
For the company’s other ongoing operating assets, such as refineries and chemicals facilities, no provisions are made for
exit or cleanup costs that may be required when such assets reach the end of their useful lives unless a decision to sell or
otherwise decommission the facility has been made, as the indeterminate settlement dates for the asset retirements prevent
estimation of the fair value of the asset retirement obligation.

Environmental Matters
The company is subject to various international and U.S. federal, state and local environmental, health and safety laws,
regulations and market-based programs. These laws, regulations and programs continue to evolve and are expected to
increase in both number and complexity over time and govern not only the manner in which the company conducts its
operations, but also the products it sells. Consideration of environmental issues and the responses to those issues through
international agreements and national, regional or state legislation or regulations are integrated into the company’s strategy
and planning, capital investment reviews and risk management tools and processes, where applicable. They are also
factored into the company’s long-range supply, demand and energy price forecasts. These forecasts reflect long-range
effects from renewable fuel penetration, energy efficiency standards, climate-related policy actions, and demand response
to oil and natural gas prices. In addition, legislation and regulations intended to address hydraulic fracturing also continue
to evolve in many jurisdictions where we operate. Refer to “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, on pages 20 through 26 of
the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of some of the inherent risks of increasingly restrictive
environmental and other regulation that could materially impact the company’s results of operations or financial condition.
Refer to Business Environment and Outlook on pages 32 and 33 for a discussion of legislative and regulatory efforts to
address climate change.
Most of the costs of complying with existing laws and regulations pertaining to company operations and products
are embedded in the normal costs of doing business. However, it is not possible to predict with certainty the
amount of additional investments in new or existing technology or facilities or the amounts of increased operating costs to
be incurred in the future to prevent, control, reduce or eliminate releases of hazardous materials or other
pollutants into the environment; remediate and restore areas damaged by prior releases of hazardous materials;
or comply with new environmental laws or regulations. Although these costs may be significant to the results of
operations in any single period, the company does not presently expect them to have a material adverse effect on the
company’s liquidity or financial position.
Accidental leaks and spills requiring cleanup may occur in the ordinary course of business. The company may
incur expenses for corrective actions at various owned and previously owned facilities and at third-party-owned waste
disposal sites used by the company. An obligation may arise when operations are closed or sold or at non-Chevron
sites where company products have been handled or disposed of. Most of the expenditures to fulfill these obligations relate
to facilities and sites where past operations followed practices and procedures that were considered acceptable at
the time but now require investigative or remedial work or both to meet current standards.
Using definitions and guidelines established by the American Petroleum Institute, Chevron estimated its
worldwide environmental spending in 2022 at approximately $2.0 billion for its consolidated companies.
Included in these expenditures were approximately $0.2 billion of environmental capital expenditures and $1.8 billion
of costs associated with the prevention, control, abatement or elimination of hazardous substances and pollutants from
operating, closed or divested sites, and the decommissioning and restoration of sites.

Chevron Corporation 2022 Annual Report

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

For 2023, total worldwide environmental capital expenditures are estimated at $0.2 billion. These capital costs are in
addition to the ongoing costs of complying with environmental regulations and the costs to remediate previously
contaminated sites.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions


Management makes many estimates and assumptions in the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (GAAP) that may have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements and
related disclosures and on the comparability of such information over different reporting periods. Such estimates and
assumptions affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as disclosures of contingent assets
and liabilities. Estimates and assumptions are based on management’s experience and other information available prior to
the issuance of the financial statements. Materially different results can occur as circumstances change and additional
information becomes known.
The discussion in this section of “critical” accounting estimates and assumptions is according to the disclosure guidelines
of the SEC, wherein:
1. the nature of the estimates and assumptions is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment
necessary to account for highly uncertain matters, or the susceptibility of such matters to change; and
2. the impact of the estimates and assumptions on the company’s financial condition or operating performance is
material.
The development and selection of accounting estimates and assumptions, including those deemed “critical,” and the
associated disclosures in this discussion have been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The
areas of accounting and the associated “critical” estimates and assumptions made by the company are as follows:
Oil and Gas Reserves Crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserves are estimates of future production that impact
certain asset and expense accounts included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Proved reserves are the estimated
quantities of oil and gas that geoscience and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be economically
producible in the future under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations. Proved
reserves include both developed and undeveloped volumes. Proved developed reserves represent volumes expected to be
recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Proved undeveloped reserves are
volumes expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled proved acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively
major expenditure is required for recompletion. Variables impacting Chevron’s estimated volumes of crude oil and natural
gas reserves include field performance, available technology, commodity prices, and development, production and carbon
costs.
The estimates of crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserves are important to the timing of expense recognition
for costs incurred and to the valuation of certain oil and gas producing assets. Impacts of oil and gas reserves on Chevron’s
Consolidated Financial Statements, using the successful efforts method of accounting, include the following:
3. Amortization - Capitalized exploratory drilling and development costs are depreciated on a unit-of-production
(UOP) basis using proved developed reserves. Acquisition costs of proved properties are amortized on a UOP
basis using total proved reserves. During 2022, Chevron’s UOP Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization
(DD&A) for oil and gas properties was $10.8 billion, and proved developed reserves at the beginning of 2022
were 6.6 billion barrels for consolidated companies. If the estimates of proved reserves used in the UOP
calculations for consolidated operations had been lower by five percent across all oil and gas properties, UOP
DD&A in 2022 would have increased by approximately $600 million.
4. Impairment - Oil and gas reserves are used in assessing oil and gas producing properties for impairment. A
significant reduction in the estimated reserves of a property would trigger an impairment review. Proved
reserves (and, in some cases, a portion of unproved resources) are used to estimate future production volumes
in the cash flow model. For a further discussion of estimates and assumptions used in impairment
assessments, see Impairment of Properties, Plant and Equipment and Investments in Affiliates below.
Refer to Table V, “Reserve Quantity Information,” for the changes in proved reserve estimates for each of the three years
ended December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022, and to Table VII, “Changes in the Standardized Measure of Discounted Future
Net Cash Flows From Proved Reserves” for estimates of proved reserve values for each of the three years ended December
31, 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Oil and Gas Reserves commentary should be read in conjunction with the Properties, Plant and Equipment section of
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, which includes a description of the “successful efforts” method
of accounting for oil and gas exploration and production activities.
Impairment of Properties, Plant and Equipment and Investments in Affiliates The company assesses its properties, plant
and equipment (PP&E) for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
value of the assets may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows
expected from the asset, an impairment charge is recorded for the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its
estimated fair value.
Determination as to whether and how much an asset is impaired involves management estimates on highly uncertain
matters, such as future commodity prices, operating expenses, carbon costs, production profiles, the pace of the energy
transition, and the outlook for global or regional market supply-and-demand conditions for crude oil, natural gas liquids,
natural gas, commodity chemicals and refined products. However, the impairment reviews and calculations are based on
assumptions that are generally consistent with the company’s business plans and long-term investment decisions.
Refer also to the discussion of impairments of properties, plant and equipment in Note 18 Properties, Plant and Equipment
and to the section on Properties, Plant and Equipment in Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
The company performs impairment assessments when triggering events arise to determine whether any write-down in the
carrying value of an asset or asset group is required. For example, when significant downward revisions to crude oil,
natural gas liquids and natural gas reserves are made for any single field or concession, an impairment review is performed
to determine if the carrying value of the asset remains recoverable. Similarly, a significant downward revision in the
company’s crude oil, natural gas liquids or natural gas price outlook would trigger impairment reviews for impacted
upstream assets. In addition, impairments could occur due to changes in national, state or local environmental regulations
or laws, including those designed to stop or impede the development or production of oil and gas. Also, if the expectation
of sale of a particular asset or asset group in any period has been deemed more likely than not, an impairment review is
performed, and if the estimated net proceeds exceed the carrying value of the asset or asset group, no impairment charge is
required. Such calculations are reviewed each period until the asset or asset group is disposed. Assets that are not impaired
on a held-and-used basis could possibly become impaired if a decision is made to sell such assets. That is, the assets would
be impaired if they are classified as held-for-sale and the estimated proceeds from the sale, less costs to sell, are less than
the assets’ associated carrying values.
Investments in common stock of affiliates that are accounted for under the equity method, as well as investments in other
securities of these equity investees, are reviewed for impairment when the fair value of the investment falls below the
company’s carrying value. When this occurs, a determination must be made as to whether this loss is other-than-temporary,
in which case the investment is impaired. Because of the number of differing assumptions potentially affecting whether an
investment is impaired in any period or the amount of the impairment, a sensitivity analysis is not practicable.
A sensitivity analysis of the impact on earnings for these periods if other assumptions had been used in impairment reviews
and impairment calculations is not practicable, given the broad range of the company’s PP&E and the number of
assumptions involved in the estimates. That is, favorable changes to some assumptions might have avoided the need to
impair any assets in these periods, whereas unfavorable changes might have caused an additional unknown number of other
assets to become impaired, or resulted in larger impacts on impaired assets.
Asset Retirement Obligations In the determination of fair value for an asset retirement obligation (ARO), the company
uses various assumptions and judgments, including such factors as the existence of a legal obligation, estimated amounts
and timing of settlements, discount and inflation rates, and the expected impact of advances in technology and process
improvements. A sensitivity analysis of the ARO impact on earnings for 2022 is not practicable, given the broad range of
the company’s long-lived assets and the number of assumptions involved in the estimates. That is, favorable changes to
some assumptions would have reduced estimated future obligations, thereby lowering accretion expense and amortization
costs, whereas unfavorable changes would have the opposite effect. Refer to Note 25 Asset Retirement Obligations
for additional discussions on asset retirement obligations.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Note 23 Employee Benefit Plans includes information on the
funded status of the company’s pension and other postretirement benefit (OPEB) plans reflected on the Consolidated
Balance Sheet; the components of pension and OPEB expense reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Income; and the
related underlying assumptions.

Chevron Corporation 2022 Annual Report

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The determination of pension plan expense and obligations is based on a number of actuarial assumptions. Two critical
assumptions are the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets and the discount rate applied to pension plan
obligations. Critical assumptions in determining expense and obligations for OPEB plans, which provide for certain health
care and life insurance benefits for qualifying retired employees and which are not funded, are the discount rate and the
assumed health care cost-trend rates. Information related to the company’s processes to develop these assumptions
is included in Note 23 Employee Benefit Plans under the relevant headings. Actual rates may vary significantly
from estimates because of unanticipated changes beyond the company’s control.
For 2022, the company used an expected long-term rate of return of 6.6 percent and a discount rate for service costs of 3.5
percent and a discount rate for interest cost of 2.7 percent for the primary U.S. pension plan. The actual return for 2022 was
(17.8) percent. For the 10 years ended December 31, 2022, actual asset returns averaged 5.7 percent for this plan.
Additionally, with the exception of three years within this 10-year period, actual asset returns for this plan equaled or
exceeded 6.6 percent during each year.
Total pension expense for 2022 was $763 million. An increase in the expected long-term return on plan assets or the
discount rate would reduce pension plan expense, and vice versa. As an indication of the sensitivity of pension expense to
the long-term rate of return assumption, a 1 percent increase in this assumption for the company’s primary U.S. pension
plan, which accounted for about 55 percent of companywide pension expense, would have reduced total pension plan
expense for 2022 by approximately $75 million. A 1 percent increase in the discount rates for this same plan would have
reduced pension expense for 2022 by approximately $177 million.
The aggregate funded status recognized at December 31, 2022, was a net liability of approximately $1.8 billion. An
increase in the discount rate would decrease the pension obligation, thus changing the funded status of a plan. At December
31, 2022, the company used a discount rate of 5.2 percent to measure the obligations for the primary U.S. pension plan. As
an indication of the sensitivity of pension liabilities to the discount rate assumption, a 0.25 percent increase in the discount
rate applied to the company’s primary U.S. pension plan, which accounted for about 63 percent of the companywide
pension obligation, would have reduced the plan obligation by approximately $239 million, and would have decreased the
plan’s underfunded status from approximately $475 million to $236 million.
For the company’s OPEB plans, expense for 2022 was $89 million, and the total liability, all unfunded at the end of 2022,
was $1.9 billion. For the primary U.S. OPEB plan, the company used a discount rate for service cost of 3.1 percent and a
discount rate for interest cost of 2.1 percent to measure expense in 2022, and a 5.2 percent discount rate to measure the
benefit obligations at December 31, 2022. Discount rate changes, similar to those used in the pension sensitivity analysis,
resulted in an immaterial impact on 2022 OPEB expense and OPEB liabilities at the end of 2022.
Differences between the various assumptions used to determine expense and the funded status of each plan and
actual experience are included in actuarial gain/loss. Refer to page 90 in Note 23 Employee Benefit Plans for more
information on the $3.4 billion of before-tax actuarial losses recorded by the company as of December 31, 2022. In
addition, information related to company contributions is included on page 93 in Note 23 Employee Benefit Plans
under the heading “Cash Contributions and Benefit Payments.”
Contingent Losses Management also makes judgments and estimates in recording liabilities for claims, litigation, tax
matters and environmental remediation. Actual costs can frequently vary from estimates for a variety of reasons. For
example, the costs for settlement of claims and litigation can vary from estimates based on differing interpretations of laws,
opinions on culpability and assessments on the amount of damages. Similarly, liabilities for environmental remediation are
subject to change because of changes in laws, regulations and their interpretation, the determination of additional
information on the extent and nature of site contamination, and improvements in technology.
Under the accounting rules, a liability is generally recorded for these types of contingencies if management determines the
loss to be both probable and estimable. The company generally reports these losses as “Operating expenses” or “Selling,
general and administrative expenses” on the Consolidated Statement of Income. An exception to this handling is for
income tax matters, for which benefits are recognized only if management determines the tax position is more likely than
not (i.e., likelihood greater than 50 percent) to be allowed by the tax jurisdiction. For additional discussion of income tax
uncertainties, refer to Note 24 Other Contingencies and Commitments under the heading “Income Taxes.” Refer also to the
business segment discussions elsewhere in this section for the effect on earnings from losses associated with certain
litigation, environmental remediation and tax matters for the three years ended December 31, 2022.
An estimate as to the sensitivity to earnings for these periods if other assumptions had been used in recording these
liabilities is not practicable because of the number of contingencies that must be assessed, the number of underlying

assumptions and the wide range of reasonably possible outcomes, both in terms of the probability of loss and the estimates
of such loss. For further information, refer to “Changes in management’s estimates and assumptions may have a material
impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements and financial or operational performance in any given period”

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Chevron Corporation
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Chevron Corporation and its subsidiaries (the
“Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of income, of comprehensive
income, of equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, including the
related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to
as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013)
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material
respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in
Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective
internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial
reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our
responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal
control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the
Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of
material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material
misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that
respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated
financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating
the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies
and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on
the financial statements.

Chevron Corporation 2022 Annual Report


58
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated
financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates
to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially
challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way
our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical
audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it
relates.
The Impact of Proved Crude Oil and Natural Gas Reserves on Upstream Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net
As described in Notes 1 and 18 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s upstream property, plant and
equipment, net balance was $125.6 billion as of December 31, 2022, and depreciation, depletion and amortization
expense was $14.8 billion for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company follows the successful efforts method
of accounting for crude oil and natural gas exploration and production activities. Depreciation and depletion of all
capitalized costs of proved crude oil and natural gas producing properties, except mineral interests, are expensed using
the unit-of-production method, generally by individual field, as the proved developed reserves are produced. Depletion
expenses for capitalized costs of proved mineral interests are recognized using the unit-of-production method by
individual field as the related proved reserves are produced. As disclosed by management, variables impacting the
Company’s estimated volumes of crude oil and natural gas reserves include field performance, available technology,
commodity prices, and development, production and carbon costs. Reserves are estimated by Company asset teams
composed of earth scientists and engineers. As part of the internal control process related to reserves estimation, the
Company maintains a Reserves Advisory Committee (RAC) (the Company’s earth scientists, engineers and RAC are
collectively referred to as “management’s specialists”).

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impact of proved crude
oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserves on upstream property, plant, and equipment, net is a critical audit matter
are (i) the significant judgment by management, including the use of management’s specialists, when developing the
estimates of proved crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserve volumes, which in turn led to (ii) a high degree
of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence obtained related to
the data, methods and assumptions used by management and its specialists in developing the estimates of proved crude
oil and natural gas reserve volumes.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our
overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls
relating to management’s estimates of proved crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserve volumes. The work
of management’s specialists was used in performing the procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of the proved crude
oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserve volumes. As a basis for using this work, the specialists’ qualifications
were understood and the Company’s relationship with the specialists was assessed. The procedures performed also
included evaluation of the methods and assumptions used by the specialists, tests of the data used by the specialists and
an evaluation of the specialists’ findings.

Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
General The company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. These require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the
assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in the financial statements, as well as amounts included in the notes
thereto, including discussion and disclosure of contingent liabilities. Although the company uses its best estimates and
judgments, actual results could differ from these estimates as circumstances change and additional information becomes
known. Prior years’ data have been reclassified in certain cases to conform to the 2022 presentation basis.
Subsidiary and Affiliated Companies The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of controlled subsidiary
companies more than 50 percent-owned and any variable interest entities in which the company is the primary beneficiary.
Undivided interests in oil and gas joint ventures and certain other assets are consolidated on a proportionate basis.
Investments in and advances to affiliates in which the company has a substantial ownership interest of approximately
20 percent to 50 percent, or for which the company exercises significant influence but not control over policy decisions, are
accounted for by the equity method.
Investments in affiliates are assessed for possible impairment when events indicate that the fair value of the investment
may be below the company’s carrying value. When such a condition is deemed to be other than temporary, the carrying
value of the investment is written down to its fair value, and the amount of the write-down is included in net income. In
making the determination as to whether a decline is other than temporary, the company considers such factors as the
duration and extent of the decline, the investee’s financial performance, and the company’s ability and intention to retain its
investment for a period that will be sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the investment’s market value. The
new cost basis of investments in these equity investees is not changed for subsequent recoveries in fair value.
Differences between the company’s carrying value of an equity investment and its underlying equity in the net assets of the
affiliate are assigned to the extent practicable to specific assets and liabilities based on the company’s analysis of the
various factors giving rise to the difference. When appropriate, the company’s share of the affiliate’s reported earnings is
adjusted quarterly to reflect the difference between these allocated values and the affiliate’s historical book values.
Noncontrolling Interests Ownership interests in the company’s subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent are
presented separately from the parent’s equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The amount of consolidated net income
attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interests are both presented on the face of the Consolidated Statement of
Income and Consolidated Statement of Equity. Included within noncontrolling interest is redeemable noncontrolling
interest.
Fair Value Measurements The three levels of the fair value hierarchy of inputs the company uses to measure the fair value
of an asset or a liability are as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable for the
asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are inputs that are not observable in the market.
Derivatives The majority of the company’s activity in derivative commodity instruments is intended to manage the
financial risk posed by physical transactions. For some of this derivative activity, the company may elect to apply fair value
or cash flow hedge accounting with changes in fair value recorded as components of accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss). For other similar derivative instruments, generally because of the short-term nature of the contracts or their
limited use, the company does not apply hedge accounting, and changes in the fair value of those contracts are reflected in
current income. For the company’s commodity trading activity, gains and losses from derivative instruments are reported
in current income. The company may enter into interest rate swaps from time to time as part of its overall strategy to
manage the interest rate risk on its debt. Interest rate swaps related to a portion of the company’s fixed-rate debt, if any,
may be accounted for as fair value hedges. Interest rate swaps related to floating-rate debt, if any, are recorded at fair value
on the balance sheet with resulting gains and losses reflected in income. Where Chevron is a party to master netting
arrangements, fair value receivable and payable amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same
counterparty are generally offset on the balance sheet.
Inventories Crude oil, products and chemicals inventories are generally stated at cost, using a last-in, first-out method. In
the aggregate, these costs are below market. “Materials, supplies and other” inventories are primarily stated at cost or net
realizable value.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts

Properties, Plant and Equipment The successful efforts method is used for crude oil and natural gas exploration and
production activities. All costs for development wells, related plant and equipment, proved mineral interests in crude oil
and natural gas properties, and related asset retirement obligation (ARO) assets are capitalized. Costs of exploratory wells
are capitalized pending determination of whether the wells found proved reserves. Costs of wells that are assigned proved
reserves remain capitalized. Costs also are capitalized for exploratory wells that have found crude oil and natural gas
reserves even if the reserves cannot be classified as proved when the drilling is completed, provided the exploratory well
has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well and the company is making
sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. All other
exploratory wells and costs are expensed. Refer to Note 21 Accounting for Suspended Exploratory Wells for additional
discussion of accounting for suspended exploratory well costs.
Long-lived assets to be held and used, including proved crude oil and natural gas properties, are assessed for
possible impairment by comparing their carrying values with their associated undiscounted, future net cash flows.
Events that can trigger assessments for possible impairments include write-downs of proved reserves based on
field performance, significant decreases in the market value of an asset (including changes to the commodity price forecast
or carbon costs), significant change in the extent or manner of use of or a physical change in an asset, and a more likely
than not expectation that a long-lived asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly
sooner than the end of its previously estimated useful life. Impaired assets are written down to their estimated fair values,
generally their discounted, future net cash flows. For proved crude oil and natural gas properties, the company
performs impairment reviews on a country, concession, PSC, development area or field basis, as appropriate. In
downstream, impairment reviews are performed on the basis of a refinery, a plant, a marketing/lubricants area or
distribution area, as appropriate. Impairment amounts are recorded as incremental “Depreciation, depletion and
amortization” expense.
Long-lived assets that are held for sale are evaluated for possible impairment by comparing the carrying value of the asset
with its fair value less the cost to sell. If the net book value exceeds the fair value less cost to sell, the asset is considered
impaired and adjusted to the lower value. Refer to Note 9 Fair Value Measurements relating to fair value
measurements. The fair value of a liability for an ARO is recorded as an asset and a liability when there is a legal
obligation associated with the retirement of a long-lived asset and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Refer
also to Note 25 Asset Retirement Obligations relating to AROs.
Depreciation and depletion of all capitalized costs of proved crude oil and natural gas producing properties, except mineral
interests, are expensed using the unit-of-production method, generally by individual field, as the proved developed reserves
are produced. Depletion expenses for capitalized costs of proved mineral interests are recognized using the unit- of-
production method by individual field as the related proved reserves are produced. Impairments of capitalized costs
of unproved mineral interests are expensed.
The capitalized costs of all other plant and equipment are depreciated or amortized over their estimated useful lives. In
general, the declining-balance method is used to depreciate plant and equipment in the United States; the straight-
line method is generally used to depreciate international plant and equipment and to amortize finance lease right-of-use
assets.
Gains or losses are not recognized for normal retirements of properties, plant and equipment subject to composite
group amortization or depreciation. Gains or losses from abnormal retirements are recorded as expenses, and from sales as
“Other income.”
Expenditures for maintenance (including those for planned major maintenance projects), repairs and minor renewals
to maintain facilities in operating condition are generally expensed as incurred. Major replacements and renewals
are capitalized.
Leases Leases are classified as operating or finance leases. Both operating and finance leases recognize lease liabilities and
associated right-of-use assets. The company has elected the short-term lease exception and therefore only recognizes right-
of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term greater than one year. The company has elected the
practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components for most asset classes except for
certain asset classes that have significant non-lease (i.e., service) components.
Where leases are used in joint ventures, the company recognizes 100 percent of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities
when the company is the sole signatory for the lease (in most cases, where the company is the operator of a joint
venture). Lease costs reflect only the costs associated with the operator’s working interest share. The lease term includes
the committed lease term identified in the contract, taking into account renewal and termination options that management is

Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts

reasonably certain to exercise. The company uses its incremental borrowing rate as a proxy for the discount rate based on
the term of the lease unless the implicit rate is available.
Goodwill Goodwill resulting from a business combination is not subject to amortization. The company tests such goodwill
at the reporting unit level for impairment annually at December 31, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances
change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount.
Environmental Expenditures Environmental expenditures that relate to ongoing operations or to conditions caused by past
operations are expensed. Expenditures that create future benefits or contribute to future revenue generation are capitalized.
Liabilities related to future remediation costs are recorded when environmental assessments or cleanups or both are
probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. For crude oil, natural gas and mineral-producing properties, a liability
for an ARO is made in accordance with accounting standards for asset retirement and environmental obligations. Refer to
Note 25 Asset Retirement Obligations for a discussion of the company’s AROs.
For U.S. federal Superfund sites and analogous sites under state laws, the company records a liability for its designated
share of the probable and estimable costs, and probable amounts for other potentially responsible parties when mandated
by the regulatory agencies because the other parties are not able to pay their respective shares. The gross amount of
environmental liabilities is based on the company’s best estimate of future costs using currently available technology and
applying current regulations and the company’s own internal environmental policies. Future amounts are not discounted.
Recoveries or reimbursements are recorded as assets when receipt is reasonably assured.
Currency Translation The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for substantially all of the company’s consolidated
operations and those of its equity affiliates. For those operations, all gains and losses from currency remeasurement are
included in current period income. The cumulative translation effects for those few entities, both consolidated and
affiliated, using functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are included in “Currency translation adjustment” on the
Consolidated Statement of Equity.
Revenue Recognition The company accounts for each delivery order of crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemical
products as a separate performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, which
typically occurs at the point in time when control of the product transfers to the customer. Payment is generally due within
30 days of delivery. The company accounts for delivery transportation as a fulfillment cost, not a separate performance
obligation, and recognizes these costs as an operating expense in the period when revenue for the related commodity is
recognized.
Revenue is measured as the amount the company expects to receive in exchange for transferring commodities to the
customer. The company’s commodity sales are typically based on prevailing market-based prices and may include
discounts and allowances. Until market prices become known under terms of the company’s contracts, the transaction price
included in revenue is based on the company’s estimate of the most likely outcome.
Discounts and allowances are estimated using a combination of historical and recent data trends. When deliveries contain
multiple products, an observable standalone selling price is generally used to measure revenue for each product. The
company includes estimates in the transaction price only to the extent that a significant reversal of revenue is not probable
in subsequent periods.
Stock Options and Other Share-Based Compensation The company issues stock options and other share-based
compensation to certain employees. For equity awards, such as stock options, total compensation cost is based on the grant
date fair value, and for liability awards, such as stock appreciation rights, total compensation cost is based on the settlement
value. The company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all awards over the service period required to earn
the award, which is the shorter of the vesting period or the time period in which an employee becomes eligible to retain the
award at retirement. The company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) awards include stock options and stock appreciation
rights, which have graded vesting provisions by which one-third of each award vests on each of the first, second and third
anniversaries of the date of grant. In addition, performance shares granted under the company’s LTIP will vest at the end of
the three-year performance period. For awards granted under the company’s LTIP beginning in 2017, stock options and

Fair Value Measurements
The tables below show the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and
nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Marketable Securities The company calculates fair value for its marketable securities based on quoted market prices for
identical assets. The fair values reflect the cash that would have been received if the instruments were sold at December 31,
2022.
Derivatives The company records most of its derivative instruments – other than any commodity derivative contracts that
are accounted for as normal purchase and normal sale – on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value, with the offsetting

amount to the Consolidated Statement of Income. The company designates certain derivative instruments as cash flow
hedges that, if applicable, are reflected in the table below. Derivatives classified as Level 1 include futures, swaps and
options contracts valued using quoted prices from active markets such as the New York Mercantile Exchange. Derivatives
classified as Level 2 include swaps, options and forward contracts, the fair values of which are obtained from third-party
broker quotes, industry pricing services and exchanges. The company obtains multiple sources of pricing information for
the Level 2 instruments. Since this pricing information is generated from observable market data, it has historically been
very consistent. The company does not materially adjust this information.
Properties, Plant and Equipment The company did not have any individually material impairments of long-lived assets
measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis to report in 2022 or 2021.
Investments and Advances The company did not have any material impairments of investments and advances measured at
fair value on a nonrecurring basis to report in 2022 or 2021.

Financial and Derivative Instruments
Derivative Commodity Instruments The company’s derivative commodity instruments principally include crude oil,
natural gas, liquefied natural gas and refined product futures, swaps, options, and forward contracts. The company applies
cash flow hedge accounting to certain commodity transactions, where appropriate, to manage the market price risk
associated with forecasted sales of crude oil. The company’s derivatives are not material to the company’s financial
position, results of operations or liquidity. The company believes it has no material market or credit risks to its operations,
financial position or liquidity as a result of its commodity derivative activities.
The company uses derivative commodity instruments traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange and on electronic
platforms of the Inter-Continental Exchange and Chicago Mercantile Exchange. In addition, the company enters into swap
contracts and option contracts principally with major financial institutions and other oil and gas companies in the “over- the-
counter” markets, which are governed by International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreements and other master
netting arrangements. Depending on the nature of the derivative transactions, bilateral collateral arrangements may also be
required.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts

Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as “Accounts and notes receivable”,
“Long-term receivables”, “Accounts payable”, and “Deferred credits and other noncurrent obligations”. Amounts not offset
on the Consolidated Balance Sheet represent positions that do not meet all the conditions for “a right of offset.”
Concentrations of Credit Risk The company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk
consist primarily of its cash equivalents, marketable securities, derivative financial instruments and trade receivables. The
company’s short-term investments are placed with a wide array of financial institutions with high credit ratings. Company
investment policies limit the company’s exposure both to credit risk and to concentrations of credit risk. Similar policies on
diversification and creditworthiness are applied to the company’s counterparties in derivative instruments. For a discussion
of credit risk on trade receivables, see Note 28 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses.

Note 11
Assets Held for Sale
At December 31, 2022, the company classified $436 of net properties, plant and equipment as “Assets held for sale” on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet. These assets are associated with upstream operations that are anticipated to be sold in the next
12 months. The revenues and earnings contributions of these assets in 2022 were not material.

Note 12
Equity
Retained earnings at December 31, 2022 and 2021, included $33,570 and $28,876, respectively, for the company’s share of
undistributed earnings of equity affiliates.
At December 31, 2022, about 104 million shares of Chevron’s common stock remained available for issuance from the 104
million shares that were reserved for issuance under the 2022 Chevron Long-Term Incentive Plan. In addition, 597,152
shares remain available for issuance from the 1,600,000 shares of the company’s common stock that were reserved for
awards under the Chevron Corporation Non-Employee Directors’ Equity Compensation and Deferral Plan.

Note 13
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is based upon “Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Chevron Corporation” (“earnings”)
and includes the effects of deferrals of salary and other compensation awards that are invested in Chevron stock units by
certain officers and employees of the company. Diluted EPS includes the effects of these items as well as the dilutive
effects of outstanding stock options awarded under the company’s stock option programs (refer to Note 22 Stock Options

Operating Segments and Geographic Data
Although each subsidiary of Chevron is responsible for its own affairs, Chevron Corporation manages its investments in
these subsidiaries and their affiliates. The investments are grouped into two business segments, Upstream and Downstream,
representing the company’s “reportable segments” and “operating segments.” Upstream operations consist primarily of
exploring for, developing, producing and transporting crude oil and natural gas; liquefaction, transportation and
regasification associated with liquefied natural gas (LNG); transporting crude oil by major international oil export
pipelines; processing, transporting, storage and marketing of natural gas; and a gas-to-liquids plant. Downstream operations
consist primarily of refining of crude oil into petroleum products; marketing of crude oil, refined products, and lubricants;
manufacturing and marketing of renewable fuels; transporting of crude oil and refined products by pipeline, marine vessel,
motor equipment and rail car; and manufacturing and marketing of commodity petrochemicals, plastics for industrial uses,
and fuel and lubricant additives. All Other activities of the company include worldwide cash management and debt
financing activities, corporate administrative functions, insurance operations, real estate activities, and technology
activities.
The company’s segments are managed by “segment managers” who report to the “chief operating decision
maker” (CODM). The segments represent components of the company that engage in activities (a) from which revenues
are earned and expenses are incurred; (b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the CODM, which makes
decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assesses their performance; and (c) for which discrete
financial information is available.
The company’s primary country of operation is the United States of America, its country of domicile. Other components of
the company’s operations are reported as “International” (outside the United States).
Segment Earnings The company evaluates the performance of its operating segments on an after-tax basis, without
considering the effects of debt financing interest expense or investment interest income, both of which are managed by the
company on a worldwide basis. Corporate administrative costs are not allocated to the operating segments. However,
operating segments are billed for the direct use of corporate services. Non-billable costs remain at the corporate level in
“All Other.” Earnings by major operating area are presented in the following table:

Segment Sales and Other Operating Revenues Operating segment sales and other operating revenues, including internal
transfers, for the years 2022, 2021 and 2020, are presented in the table on the next page. Products are transferred between
operating segments at internal product values that approximate market prices.
Revenues for the upstream segment are derived primarily from the production and sale of crude oil and natural gas, as well
as the sale of third-party production of natural gas. Revenues for the downstream segment are derived from the refining and
marketing of petroleum products such as gasoline, jet fuel, gas oils, lubricants, residual fuel oils and other products derived
from crude oil. This segment also generates revenues from the manufacture and sale of fuel and lubricant additives and the
transportation and trading of refined products and crude oil. “All Other” activities include revenues from insurance
operations, real estate activities and technology companies.

Descriptions of major equity affiliates and non-equity investments, including significant differences between the
company’s carrying value of its investments and its underlying equity in the net assets of the affiliates, are as follows:
Tengizchevroil Chevron has a 50 percent equity ownership interest in Tengizchevroil (TCO), which operates the Tengiz
and Korolev crude oil fields in Kazakhstan. At December 31, 2022, the company’s carrying value of its investment in TCO
was about $90 higher than the amount of underlying equity in TCO’s net assets. This difference results from Chevron
acquiring a portion of its interest in TCO at a value greater than the underlying book value for that portion of TCO’s net
assets. Included in the investment is a loan to TCO to fund the development of the FGP/WPMP with a principal balance of
$4,500.
Petropiar Chevron has a 30 percent interest in Petropiar, a joint stock company which operates the heavy oil Huyapari
Field and upgrading project in Venezuela’s Orinoco Belt. In 2020, the company fully impaired its investments in the
Petropiar affiliate and, effective July 1, 2020, began accounting for this venture as a non-equity method investment.
Petroboscan Chevron has a 39.2 percent interest in Petroboscan, a joint stock company which operates the Boscan Field in
Venezuela. In 2020, the company fully impaired its investments in the Petroboscan affiliate and, effective July 1, 2020,
began accounting for this venture as a non-equity method investment. The company also has an outstanding long-term loan
to Petroboscan of $560, which remains fully provisioned for at year-end 2022.
Caspian Pipeline Consortium Chevron has a 15 percent interest in the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, which provides the
critical export route for crude oil from both TCO and Karachaganak.
Angola LNG Limited Chevron has a 36.4 percent interest in Angola LNG Limited, which processes and liquefies natural
gas produced in Angola for delivery to international markets.
Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC Chevron owns 50 percent of Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC.
Included in the investment balance is a loan with a principal balance of $59 to fund a portion of the Golden Triangle
Polymers Project in Orange, Texas, in which Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC owns 51 percent.

Litigation
Ecuador
In 2003, Chevron was sued in Ecuador for environmental harm allegedly caused by an oil consortium formerly operated by
a Texaco subsidiary. The subsidiary previously had been released from environmental claims by Ecuador after it completed
a three-year remediation program, which Ecuador certified. Nonetheless, in February 2011, the Ecuadorian trial court
entered judgment against Chevron for approximately $9.5 billion, plus punitive damages. An appellate panel affirmed, and
Ecuador’s National Court of Justice ratified the judgment but nullified the punitive damages. Ecuador’s highest
Constitutional Court rejected Chevron’s final appeal in July 2018.
In 2011, Chevron sued the Ecuadorian plaintiffs and several of their lawyers and cohorts in the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York (SDNY) for violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act
and state law. The SDNY ruled that the Ecuadorian judgment had been procured through fraud, bribery, and corruption,
and prohibited the defendants from seeking to enforce the judgment in the United States or profiting from their illegal acts.
The Second Circuit affirmed, and the U.S. Supreme Court denied certiorari in 2017. The Ecuadorian plaintiffs sought to
have the Ecuadorian judgment recognized and enforced in Canada, Brazil, and Argentina, but all of those actions were
dismissed in Chevron’s favor.
In 2009, Chevron filed an arbitration claim against Ecuador before an arbitral tribunal administered by the Permanent Court
of Arbitration in The Hague, under the United States-Ecuador Bilateral Investment Treaty. In 2018, the Tribunal ruled that
the Ecuadorian judgment was procured through fraud, bribery, and corruption, and was based on environmental claims that
Ecuador had already settled and released. According to the Tribunal, the Ecuadorian judgment “violates international
public policy” and “should not be recognized or enforced by the courts of other States.” The Tribunal ordered Ecuador to
remove the judgment’s status of enforceability and to compensate Chevron for its injuries. The arbitration’s final phases, to
determine the amount of compensation owed to Chevron and to allocate the arbitration’s costs, remain pending. In 2020,
the District Court of The Hague denied Ecuador’s request to set aside the Tribunal’s award. Based on Ecuador’s
admissions during the litigation, the Court stated that it now is “common ground” between Ecuador and Chevron that the
Ecuadorian judgment is fraudulent. In June 2022, The Hague Court of Appeals dismissed Ecuador’s appeal. In September

Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts

2022, Ecuador appealed to the Dutch Supreme Court. In a separate proceeding before the Office of the United States Trade
Representative, Ecuador also admitted in July 2020 that the Ecuadorian judgment is fraudulent.
Management continues to believe that the Ecuadorian judgment is illegitimate and unenforceable and will vigorously
defend against any further attempts to have it recognized or enforced.
Climate Change
Governmental and other entities in various jurisdictions across the United States have filed legal proceedings against fossil
fuel producing companies, including Chevron entities, purporting to seek legal and equitable relief to address alleged
impacts of climate change. Chevron entities are or were among the codefendants in 23 separate lawsuits brought by 17 U.S.
cities and counties, three U.S. states, the District of Columbia, a group of municipalities in Puerto Rico and a trade group.
One of the city lawsuits was dismissed on the merits, and one of the county lawsuits was voluntarily dismissed by the
plaintiff. The lawsuits assert various causes of action, including public nuisance, private nuisance, failure to warn, fraud,
conspiracy to commit fraud, design defect, product defect, trespass, negligence, impairment of public trust, violations of
consumer protection statutes, violations of a federal antitrust statute, and violations of the RICO Act, based upon, among
other things, the company’s production of oil and gas products and alleged misrepresentations or omissions relating to
climate change risks associated with those products. The unprecedented legal theories set forth in these proceedings entail
the possibility of damages liability (both compensatory and punitive), injunctive and other forms of equitable relief,
including without limitation abatement and disgorgement of profits, civil penalties and liability for fees and costs of suits,
that, while we believe remote, could have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations and financial
condition. Further such proceedings are likely to be filed by other parties. Management believes that these proceedings are
legally and factually meritless and detract from constructive efforts to address the important policy issues presented by
climate change, and will vigorously defend against such proceedings.
Louisiana
Seven coastal parishes and the State of Louisiana have filed lawsuits in Louisiana against numerous oil and gas companies
seeking damages for coastal erosion in or near oil fields located within Louisiana’s coastal zone under Louisiana’s State
and Local Coastal Resources Management Act (SLCRMA). Chevron entities are defendants in 39 of these cases. The
lawsuits allege that the defendants’ historical operations were conducted without necessary permits or failed to comply
with permits obtained and seek damages and other relief, including the costs of restoring coastal wetlands allegedly
impacted by oil field operations. Plaintiffs’ SLCRMA theories are unprecedented; thus, there remains significant
uncertainty about the scope of the claims and alleged damages and any potential effects on the company’s results of
operations and financial condition. Management believes that the claims lack legal and factual merit and will continue to
vigorously defend against such proceedings.

The company’s effective tax rate is reflective of equity income reported on an after-tax basis as part of the “Total Income (Loss) Before Income Tax%
Expense,” in accordance
with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Chevron’s share of its equity affiliates’ total income tax expense in 2022 was $2,281.

The 2022 increase in income tax expense of $8,116 is a result of the year-over-year increase in total income before income
tax expense, which is primarily due to higher upstream realizations and downstream margins. The company’s effective tax
rate changed from 27.5 percent in 2021 to 28.3 percent in 2022. The change in effective tax rate is mainly due to mix
effects resulting from the absolute level of earnings or losses and whether they arose in higher or lower tax rate
jurisdictions.
The company records its deferred taxes on a tax-jurisdiction basis. The reported deferred tax balances are composed of the
following:

Deferred tax assets valuation allowance 19,532 17,651
Total deferred taxes, net $ 12,626 $ 9,006
Deferred tax liabilities increased by $1,513 from year-end 2021, primarily driven by an increase to properties, plant and
equipment. Deferred tax assets decreased by $226 from year-end 2021. This decrease was primarily related to decreases in
employee benefits and tax loss carryforwards for various locations, partially offset by the increase in foreign tax credits.
The overall valuation allowance relates to deferred tax assets for U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards, tax loss
carryforwards and temporary differences. The valuation allowance reduces the deferred tax assets to amounts that are, in
management’s assessment, more likely than not to be realized. At the end of 2022, the company had gross tax loss
carryforwards of approximately $9,850 and tax credit carryforwards of approximately $440, primarily related to various
international tax jurisdictions. Whereas some of these tax loss carryforwards do not have an expiration date, others expire
at various times from 2023 through 2041. U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards of $12,599 will expire between 2023 and
2033.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts

At December 31, 2022 and 2021, deferred taxes were classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as follows:
At December 31
2022 2021
Deferred charges and other assets $ (4,505) $ (5,659)
Noncurrent deferred income taxes 17,131 14,665
Total deferred income taxes, net $ 12,626 $
9,006
Income taxes, including U.S. state and foreign withholding taxes, are not accrued for unremitted earnings of international
operations that have been or are intended to be reinvested indefinitely. The indefinite reinvestment assertion continues to
apply for the purpose of determining deferred tax liabilities for U.S. state and foreign withholding tax purposes.
Undistributed earnings of international consolidated subsidiaries and affiliates for which no deferred income tax provision
has been made for possible future remittances totaled approximately $51,300 at December 31, 2022. This amount
represents earnings reinvested as part of the company’s ongoing international business. It is not practicable to estimate the
amount of state and foreign withholding taxes that might be payable on the possible remittance of earnings that are
intended to be reinvested indefinitely. The company does not anticipate incurring significant additional taxes on
remittances of earnings that are not indefinitely reinvested.
Uncertain Income Tax Positions The company recognizes a tax benefit in the financial statements for an uncertain tax
position only if management’s assessment is that the position is more likely than not (i.e., a likelihood greater than 50
percent) to be allowed by the tax jurisdiction based solely on the technical merits of the position. The term “tax position” in
the accounting standards for income taxes refers to a position in a previously filed tax return or a position expected to be
taken in a future tax return that is reflected in measuring current or deferred income tax assets and liabilities for interim or
annual periods.
The following table indicates the changes to the company’s unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31,
2022, 2021 and 2020. The term “unrecognized tax benefits” in the accounting standards for income taxes refers to the
differences between a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the benefit measured and recognized in
the financial statements. Interest and penalties are not included.

The company engages in ongoing discussions with tax authorities regarding the resolution of tax matters in the various
jurisdictions. Both the outcome of these tax matters and the timing of resolution and/or closure of the tax audits are highly
uncertain. Of the amount of unrecognized tax benefits the company has identified as of December 31, 2022, it is reasonably
possible that developments on tax matters in certain tax jurisdictions may result in decreases of approximately 20 percent
within the next 12 months. Given the number of years that still remain subject to examination and the number of matters
being examined in the various tax jurisdictions, the company is unable to estimate the range of possible adjustments to the
balance of unrecognized tax benefits beyond the next 12 months.
On the Consolidated Statement of Income, the company reports interest and penalties related to liabilities for uncertain tax
positions as “Income Tax Expense (Benefit).” As of December 31, 2022, accrued expense of $112 for anticipated interest

Redeemable long-term obligations consist primarily of tax-exempt variable-rate put bonds that are included as current
liabilities because they become redeemable at the option of the bondholders during the year following the balance sheet
date.
The company may periodically enter into interest rate swaps on a portion of its short-term debt. At December 31, 2022, the
company had no interest rate swaps on short-term debt.
At December 31, 2022, the company had $8,495 in 364-day committed credit facilities with various major banks that
enable the refinancing of short-term obligations on a long-term basis. The credit facilities allow the company to convert
any amounts outstanding into a term loan for a period of up to one year. This supports commercial paper borrowing and
can also be used for general corporate purposes. The company’s practice has been to continually replace expiring
commitments with new commitments on substantially the same terms, maintaining levels management believes
appropriate. Any borrowings under the facility would be unsecured indebtedness at interest rates based on the Secured
Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), or an average of base lending rates published by specified banks and on terms reflecting
the company’s strong credit rating. No borrowings were outstanding under this facility at December 31, 2022.
The company classified $4,050 and $7,759 of short-term debt as long-term at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Settlement of these obligations is not expected to require the use of working capital within one year, and the company has
both the intent and the ability, as evidenced by committed credit facilities, to refinance them on a long-term basis.

Note 21
Accounting for Suspended Exploratory Wells
The company continues to capitalize exploratory well costs after the completion of drilling when the well has found a
sufficient quantity of reserves to justify completion as a producing well, and the business unit is making sufficient progress
assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. If either condition is not met or if the
company obtains information that raises substantial doubt about the economic or operational viability of the project, the
exploratory well would be assumed to be impaired, and its costs, net of any salvage value, would be charged to expense.

Certain projects have multiple wells or fields or both.

Of the $1,554 of exploratory well costs capitalized for more than one year at December 31, 2022, $945 is related to seven
projects that had drilling activities underway or firmly planned for the near future. The $609 balance is related to five
projects in areas requiring a major capital expenditure before production could begin and for which additional drilling
efforts were not underway or firmly planned for the near future. Additional drilling was not deemed necessary because the
presence of hydrocarbons had already been established, and other activities were in process to enable a future decision on
project development.
The projects for the $609 referenced above had the following activities associated with assessing the reserves and the
projects’ economic viability: (a) $194 (three projects) – undergoing front-end engineering and design with final investment
decision expected within four years; (b) $415 (two projects) – development alternatives under review. While progress was
being made on all 12 projects, the decision on the recognition of proved reserves under SEC rules in some cases may not
occur for several years because of the complexity, scale and negotiations associated with the projects. More than three-
quarters of these decisions are expected to occur in the next five years.
The $1,554 of suspended well costs capitalized for a period greater than one year as of December 31, 2022, represents 71
exploratory wells in 12 projects. The tables below contain the aging of these costs on a well and project basis:

Cash received in payment for option exercises under all share-based payment arrangements for 2022, 2021 and 2020 was
$5,835, $1,274 and $226, respectively. Actual tax benefits realized for the tax deductions from option exercises were $216,
$(15) and $8 for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Cash paid to settle performance shares, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights was $556, $163 and $95 for
2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
On May 25, 2022, stockholders approved the Chevron 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (2022 LTIP). Awards under the
2022 LTIP may take the form of, but are not limited to, stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock
appreciation rights, performance shares and non-stock grants. From May 2022 through May 2032, no more than 104
million shares may be issued under the 2022 LTIP. For awards issued on or after May 25, 2022, no more than 48 million of
those shares may be issued in the form of full value awards such as share-settled restricted stock, share-settled restricted
stock units and other share-settled awards that do not require full payment in cash or property for shares underlying such
awards by the award recipient. For the major types of awards issued before January 1, 2017, the contractual terms vary
between three years for the performance shares and restricted stock units, and 10 years for the stock options and stock
appreciation rights. For awards issued after January 1, 2017, contractual terms vary between three years for the
performance shares and special restricted stock units, five years for standard restricted stock units and 10 years for the
stock options and stock appreciation rights. Commencing for grants issued in January 2023 and after, standard restricted
stock units vest ratably on an annual basis over a three-year period. Forfeitures of performance shares, restricted stock
units, and stock appreciation rights are recognized as they occur. Forfeitures of stock options are estimated using historical
forfeiture data dating back to 1990.
Noble Share-Based Plans (Noble Plans) When Chevron acquired Noble in October 2020, outstanding stock options
granted under various Noble Plans were exchanged for Chevron options. These awards retained the same provisions as the
original Noble Plans. Awards issued may be exercised for up to five years after termination of employment, depending
upon the termination type, or the original expiration date, whichever is earlier. Other awards issued under the Noble Plans
included restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and performance shares, which retained the same provisions as the
original Noble Plans. Upon termination of employment due to change-in-control, all unvested awards issued under the
Noble Plans, including stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and performance shares vested on the
termination date. If not exercised, awards will expire between 2023 and 2029.
Fair Value and Assumptions The fair market values of stock options and stock appreciation rights granted in 2022, 2021
and 2020 were measured on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-

As of December 31, 2022, there was $78 of total unrecognized before-tax compensation cost related to nonvested share-
based compensation arrangements granted under the plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average
period of 1.8 years.
At January 1, 2022, the number of LTIP performance shares outstanding was equivalent to 5,023,065 shares. During 2022,
1,552,624 performance shares were granted, 1,652,839 shares vested with cash proceeds distributed to recipients and
169,584 shares were forfeited. At December 31, 2022, there were 4,753,266 performance shares outstanding that are
payable in cash. The fair value of the liability recorded for these instruments was $996 and was measured largely using the
Monte Carlo simulation method.
At January 1, 2022, the number of restricted stock units outstanding was equivalent to 4,386,637 shares. During 2022,
989,715 restricted stock units were granted, 979,382 units vested with cash proceeds distributed to recipients and 109,144
units were forfeited. At December 31, 2022, there were 4,287,826 restricted stock units outstanding that are payable in
cash. The fair value of the liability recorded for the vested portion of these instruments was $548, valued at the stock
price as of December 31, 2022. In addition, outstanding stock appreciation rights that were granted under the LTIP totaled
686,573 equivalent shares as of December 31, 2022. The fair value of the liability recorded for the vested portion of these
instruments was $50.

Note 23
Employee Benefit Plans
The company has defined benefit pension plans for many employees. The company typically prefunds defined benefit
plans as required by local regulations or in certain situations where prefunding provides economic advantages. In
the United States, all qualified plans are subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) minimum
funding standard. The company does not typically fund U.S. nonqualified pension plans that are not subject to funding
requirements under laws and regulations because contributions to these pension plans may be less economic and
investment returns may be less attractive than the company’s other investment alternatives.
The company also sponsors other postretirement benefit (OPEB) plans that provide medical and dental benefits, as well as
life insurance for some active and qualifying retired employees. The plans are unfunded, and the company and retirees
share the costs. For the company’s main U.S. medical plan, the increase to the pre-Medicare company contribution for
retiree medical coverage is limited to no more than 4 percent each year. Certain life insurance benefits are paid by the
company.
The company recognizes the overfunded or underfunded status of each of its defined benefit pension and OPEB plans as an
asset or liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the decrease in benefit obligations was primarily due to actuarial gains caused by
higher discount rates used to value the obligations and benefit payments paid to retirees in 2022. For the year ended
December 31, 2021, the decrease in benefit obligations was primarily due to actuarial gains caused by higher discount rates
used to value the obligations and large benefit payments paid to retirees in 2021.
Amounts recognized on a before-tax basis in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” for the company’s pension and
OPEB plans were $3,446 and $4,979 at the end of 2022 and 2021, respectively. These amounts consisted of:

Expected Return on Plan Assets The company’s estimated long-term rates of return on pension assets are driven primarily
by actual historical asset-class returns, an assessment of expected future performance, advice from external actuarial firms
and the incorporation of specific asset-class risk factors. Asset allocations are periodically updated using pension plan
asset/liability studies, and the company’s estimated long-term rates of return are consistent with these studies. For 2022, the
company used an expected long-term rate of return of 6.6 percent for U.S. pension plan assets, which account for 67
percent of the company’s pension plan assets.
The market-related value of assets of the main U.S. pension plan used in the determination of pension expense was based
on the market values in the three months preceding the year-end measurement date. Management considers the three-month
time period long enough to minimize the effects of distortions from day-to-day market volatility and still be
contemporaneous to the end of the year. For other plans, market value of assets as of year-end is used in calculating the
pension expense.

Discount Rate The discount rate assumptions used to determine the U.S. and international pension and OPEB plan
obligations and expense reflect the rate at which benefits could be effectively settled, and are equal to the equivalent single
rate resulting from yield curve analysis. This analysis considered the projected benefit payments specific to the company’s
plans and the yields on high-quality bonds. The projected cash flows were discounted to the valuation date using the yield
curve for the main U.S. pension and OPEB plans. The effective discount rates derived from this analysis were 5.2 percent,
2.8 percent, and 2.4 percent for 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively, for both the main U.S. pension and OPEB plans.
Other Benefit Assumptions For the measurement of accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2022,
for the main U.S. OPEB plan, the assumed health care cost-trend rates start with 6.6 percent in 2023 and gradually decline
to 4.5 percent for 2032 and beyond. For this measurement at December 31, 2021, the assumed health care cost-trend rates
started with 6.2 percent in 2022 and gradually declined to 4.5 percent for 2031 and beyond.

The primary investment objectives of the pension plans are to achieve the highest rate of total return within prudent levels
of risk and liquidity, to diversify and mitigate potential downside risk associated with the investments, and to provide
adequate liquidity for benefit payments and portfolio management.
The company’s U.S. and U.K. pension plans comprise 94 percent of the total pension assets. Both the U.S. and U.K. plans
have an Investment Committee that regularly meets during the year to review the asset holdings and their returns. To assess
the plans’ investment performance, long-term asset allocation policy benchmarks have been established.
For the primary U.S. pension plan, the company’s Investment Committee has established the following approved asset
allocation ranges: Equities 35–65 percent, Fixed Income 25–45 percent, Real Estate 5–25 percent, Alternative Investments
0–5 percent and Cash 0–15 percent. For the U.K. pension plan, the U.K. Board of Trustees has established the following
asset allocation guidelines: Equities 5–15 percent, Fixed Income 35–45 percent, Real Estate 5–15 percent, and Cash 0–5
percent. The other significant international pension plans also have established maximum and minimum asset allocation
ranges that vary by plan. Actual asset allocation within approved ranges is based on a variety of factors, including market
conditions and illiquidity constraints. To mitigate concentration and other risks, assets are invested across multiple asset
classes with active investment managers and passive index funds.
The company does not prefund its OPEB obligations.
Cash Contributions and Benefit Payments In 2022, the company contributed $1,164 and $158 to its U.S. and international
pension plans, respectively. In 2023, the company expects contributions to be approximately $1,000 to its U.S. plans and
$100 to its international pension plans. Actual contribution amounts are dependent upon investment returns, changes in
pension obligations, regulatory environments, tax law changes and other economic factors. Additional funding may
ultimately be required if investment returns are insufficient to offset increases in plan obligations.
The company anticipates paying OPEB benefits of approximately $150 in 2023; $158 was paid in 2022.
The following benefit payments, which include estimated future service, are expected to be paid by the company in the
next 10 years:

Benefit Plan Trusts Prior to its acquisition by Chevron, Texaco established a benefit plan trust for funding obligations
under some of its benefit plans. At year-end 2022, the trust contained 14.2 million shares of Chevron treasury stock. The
trust will sell the shares or use the dividends from the shares to pay benefits only to the extent that the company does
not pay such benefits. The company intends to continue to pay its obligations under the benefit plans. The trustee will vote
the shares held in the trust as instructed by the trust’s beneficiaries. The shares held in the trust are not considered
outstanding for earnings-per-share purposes until distributed or sold by the trust in payment of benefit obligations.
Prior to its acquisition by Chevron, Unocal established various grantor trusts to fund obligations under some of its benefit
plans, including the deferred compensation and supplemental retirement plans. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, trust
assets of $35 and $36, respectively, were invested primarily in interest-earning accounts.
Employee Incentive Plans The Chevron Incentive Plan is an annual cash bonus plan for eligible employees that links
awards to corporate, business unit and individual performance in the prior year. Charges to expense for cash bonuses were
$1,169, $1,165 and $462 in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Chevron also has the LTIP for officers and other regular
salaried employees of the company and its subsidiaries who hold positions of significant responsibility. Awards under the
LTIP consist of stock options and other share-based compensation that are described in Note 22 Stock Options and Other
Share-Based Compensation.

Note 24
Other Contingencies and Commitments
Income Taxes The company calculates its income tax expense and liabilities quarterly. These liabilities generally are
subject to audit and are not finalized with the individual taxing authorities until several years after the end of the
annual period for which income taxes have been calculated. Refer to Note 17 Taxes for a discussion of the periods for
which tax returns have been audited for the company’s major tax jurisdictions and a discussion for all tax
jurisdictions of the differences between the amount of tax benefits recognized in the financial statements and the amount
taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
Settlement of open tax years, as well as other tax issues in countries where the company conducts its businesses, are not
expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the company and, in the opinion of
management, adequate provisions have been made for all years under examination or subject to future examination.
Guarantees The company has one guarantee to an equity affiliate totaling $175. This guarantee is associated with certain
payments under a terminal use agreement entered into by an equity affiliate. Over the approximate 5-year remaining term
of this guarantee, the maximum guarantee amount will be reduced as certain fees are paid by the affiliate. There are
numerous cross-indemnity agreements with the affiliate and the other partners to permit recovery of amounts paid under
the guarantee. Chevron has recorded no liability for this guarantee.
Indemnifications The company often includes standard indemnification provisions in its arrangements with its partners,
suppliers and vendors in the ordinary course of business, the terms of which range in duration and sometimes are not
limited. The company may be obligated to indemnify such parties for losses or claims suffered or incurred in connection
with its service or other claims made against such parties.
Long-Term Unconditional Purchase Obligations and Commitments, Including Throughput and Take-or-Pay
Agreements The company and its subsidiaries have certain contingent liabilities with respect to long-term unconditional
purchase obligations and commitments, including throughput and take-or-pay agreements, some of which may relate to
suppliers’ financing arrangements. The agreements typically provide goods and services, such as pipeline and storage
capacity, utilities, and petroleum products, to be used or sold in the ordinary course of the company’s business. The
aggregate amounts of required payments under throughput and take-or-pay agreements are: 2023 – $897; 2024 – $959;
2025 – $941; 2026 – $1,002; 2027 – $1,053 ; after 2027 – $6,489. The aggregate amount of required payments for other
unconditional purchase obligations are: 2023 – $349; 2024 – $425; 2025 – $322; 2026 – $358; 2027 – $311; after 2027 –
$1,233. A portion of these commitments may ultimately be shared with project partners. Total payments under the
agreements were $1,866 in 2022, $861 in 2021 and $514 in 2020.
Environmental The company is subject to loss contingencies pursuant to laws, regulations, private claims and legal
proceedings related to environmental matters that are subject to legal settlements or that in the future may require the
company to take action to correct or ameliorate the effects on the environment of prior release of chemicals or petroleum
substances by the company or other parties. Such contingencies may exist for various operating, closed and divested sites,

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts

including, but not limited to, U.S. federal Superfund sites and analogous sites under state laws, refineries, chemical plants,
marketing facilities, crude oil fields, and mining sites.
Although the company has provided for known environmental obligations that are probable and reasonably estimable, it is
likely that the company will continue to incur additional liabilities. The amount of additional future costs are not fully
determinable due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination, the unknown timing and extent of
the corrective actions that may be required, the determination of the company’s liability in proportion to other responsible
parties, and the extent to which such costs are recoverable from third parties. These future costs may be material to results
of operations in the period in which they are recognized, but the company does not expect these costs will have a material
effect on its consolidated financial position or liquidity.
Chevron’s environmental reserve as of December 31, 2022, was $868. Included in this balance was $218 related to
remediation activities at approximately 143 sites for which the company had been identified as a potentially responsible
party under the provisions of the U.S. federal Superfund law or analogous state laws which provide for joint and several
liability for all responsible parties. Any future actions by regulatory agencies to require Chevron to assume other
potentially responsible parties’ costs at designated hazardous waste sites are not expected to have a material effect on the
company’s results of operations, consolidated financial position or liquidity.
Of the remaining year-end 2022 environmental reserves balance of $650, $384 is related to the company’s U.S.
downstream operations, $44 to its international downstream operations, and $222 to its upstream operations. Liabilities at
all sites were primarily associated with the company’s plans and activities to remediate soil or groundwater contamination
or both.
The company manages environmental liabilities under specific sets of regulatory requirements, which in the United States
include the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and various state and local regulations. No single remediation site at
year-end 2022 had a recorded liability that was material to the company’s results of operations, consolidated financial
position or liquidity.
Refer to Note 25 Asset Retirement Obligations for a discussion of the company’s asset retirement obligations.
Other Contingencies Chevron receives claims from and submits claims to customers; trading partners; joint venture
partners; U.S. federal, state and local regulatory bodies; governments; contractors; insurers; suppliers; and individuals. The
amounts of these claims, individually and in the aggregate, may be significant and take lengthy periods to resolve, and may
result in gains or losses in future periods.
The company and its affiliates also continue to review and analyze their operations and may close, retire, sell, exchange,
acquire or restructure assets to achieve operational or strategic benefits and to improve competitiveness and profitability.
These activities, individually or together, may result in significant gains or losses in future periods.

Note 25
Asset Retirement Obligations
The company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (ARO) both as an asset and a liability
when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset and the liability can be
reasonably estimated. The legal obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional, even though
uncertainty may exist about the timing and/or method of settlement that may be beyond the company’s control. This
uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement is factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient
information exists to reasonably estimate fair value. Recognition of the ARO includes: (1) the present value of a liability
and offsetting asset, (2) the subsequent accretion of that liability and depreciation of the asset, and (3) the periodic review
of the ARO liability estimates and discount rates.
AROs are primarily recorded for the company’s crude oil and natural gas producing assets. No significant AROs associated
with any legal obligations to retire downstream long-lived assets have been recognized, as indeterminate settlement dates
for the asset retirements prevent estimation of the fair value of the associated ARO. The company performs periodic
reviews of its downstream long-lived assets for any changes in facts and circumstances that might require recognition of a
retirement obligation.

Note 28
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses
Chevron’s expected credit loss allowance balance was $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2022 and $745 million as of
December 31, 2021, with a majority of the allowance relating to non-trade receivable balances.
The majority of the company’s receivable balance is concentrated in trade receivables, with a balance of $18.2 billion as of
December 31, 2022, which reflects the company’s diversified sources of revenues and is dispersed across the company’s
broad worldwide customer base. As a result, the company believes the concentration of credit risk is limited. The company
routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. When the financial strength of a customer is not considered
sufficient, alternative risk mitigation measures may be deployed, including requiring prepayments, letters of credit or other
acceptable forms of collateral. Once credit is extended and a receivable balance exists, the company applies a quantitative
calculation to current trade receivable balances that reflects credit risk predictive analysis, including probability of default
and loss given default, which takes into consideration current and forward-looking market data as well as the company’s
historical loss data. This statistical approach becomes the basis of the company’s expected credit loss allowance for current
trade receivables with payment terms that are typically short-term in nature, with most due in less than 90 days.
Chevron’s non-trade receivable balance was $4.3 billion as of December 31, 2022, which includes receivables from certain
governments in their capacity as joint venture partners. Joint venture partner balances that are paid as per contract terms or
not yet due are subject to the statistical analysis described above while past due balances are subject to additional
qualitative management quarterly review. This management review includes review of reasonable and supportable
repayment forecasts. Non-trade receivables also include employee and tax receivables that are deemed immaterial and low
risk. Loans to equity affiliates and non-equity investees are also considered non-trade and associated allowances of $560
million are included within “Investments and Advances” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at both December 31, 2022
and December 31, 2021.

Note 29
Acquisition of Renewable Energy Group, Inc.
On June 13, 2022, the company acquired Renewable Energy Group, Inc. (REG), an independent company focused on
converting natural fats, oils and greases into advanced biofuels. REG utilizes a global integrated production, procurement,
distribution and logistics network to operate 11 biorefineries in the U.S. and Europe. Ten biorefineries produce biodiesel
and one produces renewable diesel. The acquisition combines REG’s growing renewable fuels production and leading
feedstock capabilities with Chevron’s large manufacturing, distribution and commercial marketing position.
Chevron acquired outstanding shares of REG in an all-cash transaction valued at $3.15 billion, or $61.50 per share. As part
of the transaction, the company recognized long-term debt and finance leases with a fair value of $590 million.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, which requires assets acquired and liabilities
assumed to be measured at their acquisition date fair values. Provisional fair value measurements were made for acquired
assets and liabilities, and adjustments to those measurements may be made in subsequent periods, up to one year from the
acquisition date, as information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained. Tangible and intangible assets were valued
using a combination of replacement cost approach and discounted cash flows that incorporated internally generated price
assumptions and production profiles together with appropriate operating and capital cost assumptions. Debt assumed in the

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts

acquisition was valued based on observable market prices for REG’s debt. As a result of measuring the assets acquired and
the liabilities assumed at fair value, the company recognized $293 million of goodwill.
The following table summarizes the values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
At June 13, 2022

World Petroleum Congress and the American Association of Petroleum Geologists. The company classifies discovered
recoverable hydrocarbons into six categories based on their status at the time of reporting – three deemed commercial and
three potentially recoverable. Within the commercial classification are proved reserves and two categories of unproved
reserves: probable and possible. The potentially recoverable categories are also referred to as contingent resources. For
reserves estimates to be classified as proved, they must meet all SEC and company standards.
Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities that geoscience and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable
certainty to be economically producible in the future from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating
methods and government regulations. Net proved reserves exclude royalties and interests owned by others and reflect
contractual arrangements and royalty obligations in effect at the time of the estimate.
Proved reserves are classified as either developed or undeveloped. Proved developed reserves are the quantities expected to
be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods, or in which the cost of the required
equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well. Proved undeveloped reserves are the quantities expected
to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is
required for recompletion.
Due to the inherent uncertainties and the limited nature of reservoir data, estimates of reserves are subject to change as
additional information becomes available.

Proved reserves are estimated by company asset teams composed of earth scientists and engineers. As part of the internal
control process related to reserves estimation, the company maintains a Reserves Advisory Committee (RAC) that is
chaired by the Manager of Global Reserves, an organization that is separate from the business units that estimate reserves.
The Manager of Global Reserves has more than 30 years of experience working in the oil and gas industry and holds both
undergraduate and graduate degrees in geoscience. His experience includes various technical and management roles in
providing reserve and resource estimates in support of major capital and exploration projects, and more than 10 years of
overseeing oil and gas reserves processes. He has been named a Distinguished Lecturer by the American Association of
Petroleum Geologists and is an active member of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, the SEPM Society of
Sedimentary Geologists and the Society of Petroleum Engineers.
All RAC members are degreed professionals, each with more than 10 years of experience in various aspects of reserves
estimation relating to reservoir engineering, petroleum engineering, earth science or finance. The members are
knowledgeable in SEC guidelines for proved reserves classification and receive annual training on the preparation of
reserves estimates.
The RAC has the following primary responsibilities: establish the policies and processes used within the business units to
estimate reserves; provide independent reviews and oversight of the business units’ recommended reserves estimates and
changes; confirm that proved reserves are recognized in accordance with SEC guidelines; determine that reserve quantities
are calculated using consistent and appropriate standards, procedures and technology; and maintain the Chevron
Corporation Reserves Manual, which provides standardized procedures used corporatewide for classifying and reporting
hydrocarbon reserves.
During the year, the RAC is represented in meetings with each of the company’s business units to review and discuss
reserve changes recommended by the various asset teams. Major changes are also reviewed with the company’s senior
leadership team including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. The company’s annual reserve
activity is also reviewed with the Board of Directors. If major changes to reserves were to occur between the annual
reviews, those matters would also be discussed with the Board.
RAC subteams also conduct in-depth reviews during the year of many of the fields that have large proved reserves
quantities. These reviews include an examination of the proved reserve records and documentation of their compliance
with the Chevron Corporation Reserves Manual.
Technologies Used in Establishing Proved Reserves Additions In 2022, additions to Chevron’s proved reserves were
based on a wide range of geologic and engineering technologies. Information generated from wells, such as well logs, wire
line sampling, production and pressure testing, fluid analysis, and core analysis, was integrated with seismic data, regional
geologic studies, and information from analogous reservoirs to provide “reasonably certain” proved reserves estimates.
Both proprietary and commercially available analytic tools, including reservoir simulation, geologic modeling and seismic
processing, have been used in the interpretation of the subsurface data. These technologies have been utilized extensively
by the company in the past, and the company believes that they provide a high degree of confidence in establishing reliable
and consistent reserves estimates.

In 2022, revisions include an increase of 257 million BOE in Israel, due to new wells and performance revisions in the
Leviathan and Tamar fields. This increase was largely offset by decreases of 145 million BOE from the United States
primarily from portfolio optimizations in the Midland and Delaware basins, 69 million BOE in Kazakhstan primarily at
TCO as higher prices reduced entitlement (Entitlement effects) and changes in operating assumptions reduced estimated

undeveloped reserves, and 31 million BOE in Nigeria due to lower expected offtake of natural gas relative to contracted
volumes.
In 2022, extensions and discoveries of 578 million BOE in the United States were primarily due to the increase of activity
and planned development of new locations in shale and tight assets in the Midland, Delaware and DJ basins. In Other
Americas, 34 million BOE of extensions and discoveries were from shale and tight assets in Argentina and Canada.
The difference in 2022 extensions and discoveries of 122 million BOE, between the net quantities of proved reserves of
754 million BOE as reflected on pages 107 to 109 and net quantities of proved undeveloped reserves of 632 million
BOE, is primarily due to proved extensions and discoveries that were not recognized as proved undeveloped reserves in the
prior year and were recognized directly as proved developed reserves in 2022.
Purchases of 61 million BOE in 2022 are primarily from the acquisition of various properties in the Midland and Delaware
basins in the United States.
Transfers to proved developed reserves in 2022 include 309 million BOE in the United States, primarily from the Midland,
Delaware and DJ basin developments, 207 million BOE in Australia, and 141 million BOE in Kazakhstan, Angola,
Canada, Argentina and other international locations. These transfers are the consequence of development expenditures on
completing wells and facilities.
During 2022, investments totaling approximately $7.5 billion in oil and gas producing activities and about $0.1 billion in
non-oil and gas producing activities were expended to advance the development of proved undeveloped reserves. The
United States accounted for about $3.7 billion primarily related to various development activities in the Midland and
Delaware basins and the Gulf of Mexico. In Asia, expenditures during the year totaled approximately $2.6 billion,
primarily related to development projects for TCO in Kazakhstan. An additional $0.2 billion were spent on development
activities in Australia. In Africa, about $0.5 billion was expended on various offshore development and natural gas projects
in Nigeria, Angola and Republic of Congo. Development activities in Canada and other international locations were
primarily responsible for about $0.5 billion of expenditures.
Reserves that remain proved undeveloped for five or more years are a result of several factors that affect optimal project
development and execution. These factors may include the complex nature of the development project in adverse and
remote locations, physical limitations of infrastructure or plant capacities that dictate project timing, compression projects
that are pending reservoir pressure declines, and contractual limitations that dictate production levels.
At year-end 2022, the company held approximately 1.3 billion BOE of proved undeveloped reserves that have remained
undeveloped for five years or more. The majority of these reserves are in locations where the company has a proven track
record of developing major projects. In Australia, approximately 235 million BOE remain undeveloped for five years or
more related to the Gorgon and Wheatstone Projects. Further field development to convert the remaining proved
undeveloped reserves is scheduled to occur in line with operating constraints, reservoir depletion and infrastructure
optimization. In Africa, approximately 167 million BOE have remained undeveloped for five years or more, primarily due
to facility constraints at various fields and infrastructure associated with the Escravos gas projects in Nigeria. Affiliates
account for about 776 million BOE of proved undeveloped reserves with about 726 million BOE that have remained
undeveloped for five years or more. Approximately 647 million BOE are related to TCO in Kazakhstan and about 79
million BOE are related to Angola LNG. At TCO and Angola LNG, further field development to convert the remaining
proved undeveloped reserves is scheduled to occur in line with reservoir depletion and facility constraints.
Annually, the company assesses whether any changes have occurred in facts or circumstances, such as changes to
development plans, regulations, or government policies, that would warrant a revision to reserve estimates. In 2022,
improvements in commodity prices positively impacted the economic limits of oil and gas properties, resulting in proved
reserve increases, and negatively impacted proved reserves due to entitlement effects. The year-end reserves quantities
have been updated for these circumstances and significant changes have been discussed in the appropriate reserves
sections. Over the past three years, the ratio of proved undeveloped reserves to total proved reserves has ranged between 31
percent and 35 percent.
Proved Reserve Quantities For the three years ending December 31, 2022, the pattern of net reserve changes shown in the
following tables are not necessarily indicative of future trends. Apart from acquisitions, the company’s ability to add
proved reserves can be affected by events and circumstances that are outside the company’s control, such as delays in
government permitting, partner approvals of development plans, changes in oil and gas prices, OPEC constraints,
geopolitical uncertainties, and civil unrest.

At December 31, 2022, proved reserves for the company were 11.2 billion BOE. The company’s estimated net proved
reserves of liquids, including crude oil, condensate and synthetic oil for the years 2020, 2021 and 2022, are shown in the
table on page 107. The company’s estimated net proved reserves of natural gas liquids are shown on page 108, and the
company’s estimated net proved reserves of natural gas are shown on page 109.
Noteworthy changes in crude oil, condensate and synthetic oil proved reserves for 2020 through 2022 are discussed below
and shown in the table on the following page:
Revisions In 2020, capital reductions and commodity price effects in the Midland and Delaware basins and Anchor in the
Gulf of Mexico were primarily responsible for the 279 million barrels decrease in the United States. Reserves in Venezuela
affiliates decreased by 149 million barrels, primarily due to impairments and accounting methodology change. Entitlement
effects and performance revisions in TCO were primarily responsible for the 180 million barrels increase. Entitlement
effects primarily contributed to an increase of 77 million barrels of synthetic oil at the Athabasca Oil Sands in Canada and
74 million barrels at multiple locations in Asia.
In 2021, the 206 million barrels increase in United States was primarily in the Gulf of Mexico and the Midland and
Delaware basins. The higher commodity price environment led to the increase of 126 million barrels in the Gulf of Mexico
primarily from Anchor and a 68 million barrels increase in the Midland and Delaware basins due to higher planned
development activity. In TCO, entitlement effects and technical changes in field operating assumptions, reservoir model,
and project schedule were primarily responsible for the 208 million barrels decrease in Kazakhstan. Entitlement effects
primarily contributed to a decrease of 106 million barrels of synthetic oil at the Athabasca Oil Sands project in Canada. In
the Other Americas, performance revisions and price effects, mainly in Canada and Argentina, were primarily responsible
for the 41 million barrels increase.
In 2022, entitlement effects primarily contributed to a decrease of 49 million barrels of synthetic oil at the Athabasca Oil
Sands project in Canada. In TCO, entitlement effects and changes in operating assumptions were primarily responsible for
the 35 million barrels decrease in Kazakhstan.
Extensions and Discoveries In 2020, extensions and discoveries in the Midland and Delaware basins were primarily
responsible for the 105 million barrels increase in the United States.
In 2021, extensions and discoveries in the Midland and Delaware basins, and at the Whale Project in the Gulf of Mexico,
were primarily responsible for the 349 million barrels increase in the United States.
In 2022, extensions and discoveries in the Midland, Delaware and DJ basins, and approval of the Ballymore Project in the
Gulf of Mexico, were primarily responsible for the 264 million barrels increase in the United States. In Other Americas, the
32 million barrels of extensions and discoveries were from Argentina and Canada.
Purchases In 2020, the acquisition of Noble assets contributed 227 million barrels in the DJ basin, Midland and Delaware
basins in the United States.
In 2022, the company exercised its option to acquire additional land acreage in the Athabasca Oil Sands project in Canada
contributing 168 million barrels in synthetic oil. The extension of deepwater licenses in Nigeria and the Republic of Congo
contributed 36 million barrels in Africa.
Sales In 2020, sales of 99 million barrels in Asia were in Azerbaijan.
In 2021, sales of 32 million barrels in the United States were in the Midland and Delaware basins.

Noteworthy changes in natural gas proved reserves for 2020 through 2022 are discussed below and shown in the table on
the following page:
Revisions In 2020, the demotion of Jansz Io compression project reserves and lower field performance, partially offset by
positive revisions at Gorgon, were mainly responsible for the net 2.5 TCF decrease in Australia. Capital reductions and
commodity price effects in various fields of the Midland and Delaware basins were mainly responsible for the 509 BCF
decrease in the United States. In Africa, a 229 BCF decrease was primarily due to reduced demand and development plan
changes at Meren in Nigeria.
In 2021, the approval of the Jansz Io Compression project was mainly responsible for the 1.2 TCF increase in Australia.
Higher commodity prices, resulting in the increase of planned development activity in the Midland and Delaware basins,
were mainly responsible for the 829 BCF increase in the United States. In TCO, entitlement effects and technical changes
in field operating assumptions, reservoir model, and project schedule were primarily responsible for the 179 BCF decrease.
In 2022, the performance of the Leviathan and Tamar fields in Israel and the Bibiyana and Jalalabad fields in Bangladesh
were mainly responsible for the 1.8 TCF increase in Asia. In Australia, the 377 BCF decrease was mainly due to updated
reservoir characterization of the Wheatstone field. In TCO, entitlement effects and changes in operating assumptions were
primarily responsible for the 285 BCF decrease.

Table VI - Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Related to Proved Oil and Gas Reserves
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is calculated in accordance with SEC and FASB
requirements. This includes using the average of first-day-of-the-month oil and gas prices for the 12-month period prior to
the end of the reporting period, estimated future development and production costs assuming the continuation of existing
economic conditions, estimated costs for asset retirement obligations (includes costs to retire existing wells and facilities in
addition to those future wells and facilities necessary to produce proved undeveloped reserves), and estimated future
income taxes based on appropriate statutory tax rates. Discounted future net cash flows are calculated using 10 percent mid-
period discount factors. Estimates of proved reserve quantities are imprecise and change over time as new information
becomes available. Probable and possible reserves, which may become proved in the future, are excluded from the
calculations. The valuation requires assumptions as to the timing and amount of future development and production costs.
The calculations are made as of December 31 each year and do not represent management’s estimate of the company’s
future cash flows or value of its oil and gas reserves. In the following table, the caption “Standardized Measure Net Cash
Flows” refers to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows.

the people behind the patents
At Chevron, we’re innovating for today and tomorrow. Technology and human ingenuity have never been
more important as we safely work to meet the world’s growing demand for affordable, reliable, ever‑cleaner
energy. In 2022, we were proud to honor 463 Chevron inventors (from 29 locations around the world) who
were granted
U.S. patents or submitted patent applications. Chevron holds more than 4,800 U.S. patents on technology
solutions, with another 2,100 pending, making us one of the leading patent holders in the industry
worldwide.

This Annual Report contains forward‑looking statements – identified by words such as “advances,” “aim,” “ambitions,” “anticipates,”
“approaches,” “aspiration,” “believe,” “budgets,” “can,” “commit,” “commits,” “drives,” “estimates,” “expect,” “focus,” “forecast,” “goal,”
“intend,” “may,” “on track,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “position,” “potential,” “progress,” “project,” “schedule,” “seeks,” “should,” “strategy,”
“target,” “will” and similar phrases – that reflect management’s current estimates and beliefs, but are not guarantees of future results.

There are many paths the
future could take, but a few
things are certain: the global
demand for energy continues
to grow; more affordable and
reliable energy is needed;
current energy forms are
becoming cleaner; and new
energy solutions are emerging.
