  • Chevron's Q1 Oil Production Rises 15% but Earnings Fall on Timing and Regional Issues
    May 2, 2026, 3:50 PM EDT. Chevron's first-quarter production surged 15% to nearly 3.9 million barrels of oil equivalent per day, driven by acquisitions and U.S. growth. However, adjusted earnings declined to $2.8 billion from $3.8 billion a year ago despite higher Brent oil prices averaging $81 per barrel. Profit setbacks stemmed from production dips in the Middle East and Kazakhstan downtime, coupled with a $2.9 billion unfavorable timing impact from financial derivative recognition mismatches. Underlying operations remained strong with U.S. refining at record throughput and ongoing cost-saving measures. Chevron also advanced long-term growth through Venezuela expansion, Texas gas power deals, and new projects in Israel and Equatorial Guinea.
