About Chevran
Corporation:
Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX Euronext: CHTEX) is an American multinational energycorporation. Headquartered
in San Ramon, California, and active in more than 180 countries, it is engaged in every aspect of the
oil, gas, and geothermalenergy industries,
including explorationand production; refining, marketing and transport;
chemicals manufacturing and sales; and power
generation. Chevron is one of the world's six
"supermajor" oil companies. For the
past five years, Chevron has been continuously ranked as one of America's 5 largest corporations
by Fortune 500.[1]
Chevron traditionally traces its roots to
an oildiscovery in Pico Canyon (now
the Pico Canyon
Oilfield) north of Los Angeles. The discovery
led to the formation, in 1879, of the Pacific Coast Oil Company, the oldest predecessor of Chevron
Corporation.
In 1895, the company initiated its enduring marine history when
it launched California's first steel tanker, the George Loomis, which could ship 6,500 barrels of crude between
Ventura and San Francisco.[2] Another side of
the genealogical chart points to the founding of The Texas Fuel Company in 1901, a modest enterprise that
started out in three rooms of a corrugated iron building in Beaumont, Texas. This company was known as the Texas Company and later Texaco.
Chevron Corporation was originally known
as Standard Oil of
California, or SoCal, and was formed amid the antitrustbreakup
of John D.
Rockefeller's Standard Oilcompany in 1911. It was one of the "Seven Sisters"that dominated the world oil industry in the early 20th century. In 1933, Saudi Arabiagranted SoCal a concession to find oil, and oil was found in 1938. In the early 1950s, SoCal
discovered the world's largest oil field (Ghawar) in Saudi Arabia. SoCal's
subsidiary, California-Arabian Standard Oil Company, developed over years, to become the Arabian American Oil
Company (ARAMCO) in 1944. In 1973, the Saudi government began buying into ARAMCO. By 1980, the company was
entirely owned by the Saudis, and in 1988, the name was changed to Saudi Arabian Oil Company
(Saudi Aramco).
Standard Oil of California and Gulf Oil merged in 1984, the largest merger in history at that time. Under the antitrust regulation,
SoCal divested many of Gulf's operating subsidiaries, and sold some Gulf stations and a refinery in the eastern
United States. SoCal changed the name to Chevron Corporation.[3]
In June 1992, Dynegy,
Inc.(NYSE: DYN) was created from the merger of Chevron's former natural gas and natural
gas liquids business with Dynegy's predecessor, NGC Corp. (formerly NYSE: NGL). NGC had been an integrated natural gas services company since around
1994.[ 4]
In a merger completed February 1, 2000, Illinova Corp.
(formerly NYSE: ILN) became a wholly owned subsidiary of Dynegy Inc., in which Chevron also
took a 28% stake.[ 4] However, Chevron in 2007 sold its 19 percent (at the time) common
stock investment in the company for approximately $940 million, resulting in a gain of $680
million.[5] In 2001, Chevron
Corporation acquiredTexacoto form ChevronTexaco.
On May 9, 2005, ChevronTexaco announced it would drop the
Texaco monikerand return to the Chevron name.
Texaco remains as a brand under the Chevron Corporation. On August 19, 2005, Chevron acquired
the Unocal
Corporation. Because of Unocal's large
South East Asian geothermal operations, Chevron became the world's largest producer of geothermal energy. On mid-2007,Chevron Corporation sold all Conocostations in Mississippi to
the Texaco brand a process to be
complete at the end of 2007.[6]
In July 2010, Chevron ended retail operations in the Mid
Atlantic US, removing the Chevron and Texaco names from 1,100 stations in Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, North
Carolina, New Jersey, Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Washington, D.C., and
parts of Tennessee.[7]
In November123 2010, Chevron Corp. (NYSE:CVX) acquired
Pennsylvania based Atlas Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:ATLS) for $3.2 billion in cash and additional $1.1 billion in existing
debt owed by Atlas.[8]
