Chevron had a net profit of US$12.07 billion in the second quarter of 2026, multiple times greater than the gain of US$2.49 billion recorded in the same period last year, according to a balance sheet released this Friday (31). With adjustments, the second largest oil company in the United States recorded earnings per share of US$6.06 between April and June, above the projection of analysts consulted by FactSet, of US$5.55.

Revenue totaled US$70.06 billion in the quarter, also above the FactSet consensus of US$62.72 billion.

The company also highlighted that production in the United States reached a record level, while global production grew 20% compared to the same period in 2025. In American refineries, there was a record level of crude oil processing, with a unit utilization rate of 97%.

“In the face of geopolitical uncertainty and market volatility, Chevron teams remain focused on safely delivering the reliable energy the world needs,” said CEO Mike Wirth. “Our strong performance in the second quarter is the result of disciplined investments and solid execution, which drove record U.S. upstream production, record crude oil processing at our U.S. refineries, and exceptional reliability at key assets,” he added.
