CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
FOR THE PURPOSE OF SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS OF THE
PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
This quarterly report on
Form 10-Q
of Chevron Corporation contains forward-looking statements
relating to Chevrons operations that are based on
managements current expectations, estimates and
projections about the petroleum, chemicals and other
energy-related industries. Words such as
anticipates, expects,
intends, plans, targets,
projects, believes, seeks,
schedules, estimates,
budgets and similar expressions are intended to
identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are
not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain
risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond
the companys control and are difficult to predict.
Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially
from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking
statements. The reader should not place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of
this report. Unless legally required, Chevron undertakes no
obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
Among the important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements
are: changing crude oil and natural gas prices; changing
refining, marketing and chemical margins; actions of competitors
or regulators; timing of exploration expenses; timing of crude
oil liftings; the competitiveness of alternate-energy sources or
product substitutes; technological developments; the results of
operations and financial condition of equity affiliates; the
inability or failure of the companys joint-venture
partners to fund their share of operations and development
activities; the potential failure to achieve expected net
production from existing and future crude oil and natural gas
development projects; potential delays in the development,
construction or
start-up of
planned projects; the potential disruption or interruption of
the companys net production or manufacturing facilities or
delivery/transportation networks due to war, accidents,
political events, civil unrest, severe weather or crude oil
production quotas that might be imposed by the Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries; the potential liability for
remedial actions or assessments under existing or future
environmental regulations and litigation; significant investment
or product changes under existing or future environmental
statutes, regulations and litigation; the potential liability
resulting from other pending or future litigation; the
companys future acquisition or disposition of assets and
gains and losses from asset dispositions or impairments;
government-mandated sales, divestitures, recapitalizations,
industry-specific taxes, changes in fiscal terms or restrictions
on scope of company operations; foreign currency movements
compared with the U.S. dollar; the effects of changed
accounting rules under generally accepted accounting principles
promulgated by rule-setting bodies; and the factors set forth
under the heading Risk Factors on pages 30 through
32 of the companys 2009 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
In addition, such statements could be affected by general
domestic and international economic and political conditions.
Unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed in this report
could also have material adverse effects on forward-looking
statements.

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
|
Note 1.
|
Interim
Financial Statements
|
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Chevron
Corporation and its subsidiaries (the company) have not been
audited by an independent registered public accounting firm. In
the opinion of the companys management, the interim data
include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the
results for the interim periods. These adjustments were of a
normal recurring nature. The results for the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, are not necessarily
indicative of future financial results. The term
earnings is defined as net income attributable to
Chevron Corporation.
Effective January 1, 2010, Chevrons segment reporting
reflects the reclassification of certain businesses. Prior
period information was revised to conform to the 2010
presentation. Refer to Note 5. Operating Segments and
Geographic Data, beginning on page 9, for a
discussion of the changes.
Certain notes and other information have been condensed or
omitted from the interim financial statements presented in this
Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.
Therefore, these financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the companys 2009 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
Earnings for the first six months of 2010 included after-tax
charges of $175 million associated with employee reductions
in the downstream businesses and corporate staffs. Refer to
Note 16. Restructuring and Reorganization
Costs, on page 22, for further discussion.
Earnings for the second quarter and first six months of 2009
included $140 million and $540 million, respectively,
of after-tax gains on the sale of international downstream
assets.
In the first quarter 2010, the company began investing in bank
time deposits with maturities greater than 90 days. The
company believes that the investment in longer-term bank time
deposits is consistent with its cash management strategy to
preserve principal, maintain high levels of liquidity and earn a
competitive return.
|
|
Note 3.
|
Noncontrolling
Interests
|
Ownership interests in the companys subsidiaries held by
parties other than the parent are presented separately from the
parents 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.
Activity for the equity attributable to noncontrolling interests
for the first six months of 2010 and 2009 is presented in the
following table. Information for 2009 has been conformed to the
2010 presentation.

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 companys reportable segments
and operating segments as defined in accounting
standards for segment reporting (ASC 280). Upstream operations
consist primarily of exploring for, developing and producing
crude oil and natural gas; processing, liquefaction,
transportation and regasification associated with liquefied
natural gas (LNG); transporting crude oil by major international
oil export pipelines; transporting, storage and marketing of
natural gas; and a
gas-to-liquids
project. Downstream operations consist primarily of refining of
crude oil into petroleum products; marketing of crude oil and
refined products; transporting 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 mining operations,
power generation businesses, worldwide cash management and debt
financing activities, corporate administrative functions,
insurance operations, real estate activities, energy services,
alternative fuels and technology.
The segments are separately managed for investment purposes
under a structure that includes segment managers who
report to the companys chief operating decision
maker (CODM) (terms as defined in the accounting
standards). The CODM is the companys Executive Committee
(EXCOM), a committee of senior officers that includes the Chief
Executive Officer, and EXCOM reports to the Board of Directors
of Chevron Corporation.
The operating segments represent components of the company as
described in the accounting standards 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.
Segment managers for the reportable segments are directly
accountable to and maintain regular contact with the
companys CODM to discuss the segments operating
activities and financial performance. The CODM approves annual
capital and exploratory budgets at the reportable segment level,
as well as reviews capital and exploratory funding for major
projects and approves major changes to the annual capital and
exploratory budgets. However,
business-unit
managers within the operating segments are directly responsible
for decisions relating to project

implementation and all other matters connected with daily
operations. Company officers who are members of EXCOM also have
individual management responsibilities and participate in other
committees for purposes other than acting as the CODM.
The activities reported in Chevrons upstream and
downstream operating segments have changed effective
January 1, 2010. Chemicals businesses are now reported as
part of the downstream segment. In addition, the companys
significant upstream-enabling operations, primarily a
gas-to-liquids
project and major international export pipelines, have been
reclassified from the downstream segment to the upstream
segment. Prior period information in this report has been
revised to conform to the 2010 presentation.
The companys primary country of operation is the United
States of America, its country of domicile. Other components of
the companys 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 and
assets are not allocated to the operating segments. However,
operating segments are billed for the direct use of corporate
services. Nonbillable costs remain at the corporate level in
All Other. Earnings by major operating area for the
three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009
are presented in the following table:

Segment Sales and Other Operating Revenues Segment sales
and other operating revenues, including internal transfers, for
the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and
2009, are presented in the following table. 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 mining operations, power
generation businesses, insurance operations, real estate
activities and technology companies.

There were no restrictions on CTCs ability to pay
dividends or make loans or advances at June 30, 2010.
Taxes on income for the second quarter and first six months of
2010 were $3.3 billion and $6.4 billion, respectively,
compared with $1.6 billion and $2.9 billion for the
corresponding periods in 2009. The associated effective tax
rates (calculated as the amount of Income Tax Expense divided by
Income Before Income Tax Expense) for the second quarters of
2010 and 2009 were 38 percent and 47 percent,
respectively. For the comparative six-month periods, the
effective tax rates were 39 percent and 45 percent,
respectively.
The decline in the effective tax rates in both the quarterly and
six-month comparisons was primarily due to the impact of foreign
currency translation effects on Income Before Income Tax
Expense, with no corresponding impact on Income Tax Expense.
Also contributing to these declines was a lower effective tax
rate in the companys international upstream operations,
driven primarily by the increased utilization of tax credits
resulting from higher taxable profits in certain foreign tax
jurisdictions. Additionally, a smaller proportion of income was
earned in 2010 from international upstreams higher tax
rate jurisdictions.
Tax positions for Chevron and its subsidiaries and affiliates
are subject to income tax audits by many tax jurisdictions
throughout the world. For the companys major tax
jurisdictions, examinations of tax returns for certain prior tax
years had not been completed as of June 30, 2010. For these
jurisdictions, the latest years for which income tax
examinations had been finalized were as follows: United
States 2005, Nigeria 1994,
Angola 2001 and Saudi Arabia 2003.
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. However, it is
reasonably possible that developments on tax matters in certain
tax jurisdictions may result in significant increases or
decreases in the companys total unrecognized tax benefits
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, we are unable
to estimate the range of possible adjustments to the balance of
unrecognized tax benefits.

Employee
Benefits
|
Chevron 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 companys other investment alternatives.
The company also sponsors other postretirement (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 the retirees share the costs.
Medical coverage for Medicare-eligible retirees in the
companys main U.S. medical plan is

secondary to Medicare (including Part D) and the
increase to the 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.

Obligations for plans outside the U.S. are not significant

At the end of 2009, the company estimated it would contribute
$900 million to employee pension plans during 2010
(composed of $600 million for the U.S. plans and
$300 million for the international plans). Total estimated
contributions for 2010 remain unchanged. Through June 30,
2010, a total of $347 million was contributed (including
$272 million to the U.S. plans). Actual contribution
amounts are dependent upon investment returns, changes in
pension obligations, regulatory environments and other economic
factors. Additional funding may ultimately be required if
investment returns are insufficient to offset increases in plan
obligations.
During the first six months of 2010, the company contributed
$92 million to its OPEB plans. The company anticipates
contributing about $116 million during the remainder of
2010.

Accounting
for Suspended Exploratory Wells
|
Accounting standards for the costs of exploratory wells (ASC
932) provide that exploratory well costs continue to be
capitalized after the completion of drilling when (a) the
well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its
completion as a producing well and (b) the entity is making
sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and
operating viability of the project. If either condition is not
met or if an entity 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. (Note that an entity is not required to complete the
exploratory or exploratory-type stratigraphic well as a
producing well.) The companys capitalized cost of
suspended wells at June 30, 2010, was $2.6 billion, an
increase of $174 million from year-end 2009, primarily due
to drilling activities in Australia. For the category of
exploratory well costs at year-end 2009 that were suspended more
than one year, a total of $7 million was expensed in the
first six months of 2010.
MTBE Chevron and many other companies in the petroleum
industry have used methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) as a
gasoline additive. Chevron is a party to 53 pending lawsuits and
claims, the majority of which involve numerous other petroleum
marketers and refiners. Resolution of these lawsuits and claims
may ultimately require the company to correct or ameliorate the
alleged effects on the environment of prior release of MTBE by
the company or other parties. Additional lawsuits and claims
related to the use of MTBE, including personal-injury claims,
may be filed in the future. The companys ultimate exposure
related to pending lawsuits and claims is not determinable, but
could be material to net income in any one period. The company
no longer uses MTBE in the manufacture of gasoline in the United
States.
Ecuador Chevron is a defendant in a civil lawsuit before
the Superior Court of Nueva Loja in Lago Agrio, Ecuador, brought
in May 2003 by plaintiffs who claim to be representatives of
certain residents of an area where an oil production consortium
formerly had operations. The lawsuit alleges damage to the
environment from the oil exploration and production operations
and seeks unspecified damages to fund environmental remediation
and restoration of the alleged environmental harm, plus a health
monitoring program. Until 1992, Texaco Petroleum Company
(Texpet), a subsidiary of Texaco Inc., was a minority member of
this consortium with Petroecuador, the Ecuadorian state-owned
oil company, as the majority partner; since 1990, the operations
have been conducted solely by Petroecuador. At the conclusion of
the consortium and following an independent third-party
environmental audit of the concession area, Texpet entered into
a formal agreement with the Republic of Ecuador and Petroecuador
for Texpet to remediate specific sites assigned by the
government in proportion to Texpets ownership share of the
consortium. Pursuant to that agreement, Texpet conducted a
three-year remediation program at a cost of $40 million.
After certifying that the sites were properly remediated, the
government granted Texpet and all related corporate entities a
full release from any and all environmental liability arising
from the consortium operations.
Based on the history described above, Chevron believes that this
lawsuit lacks legal or factual merit. As to matters of law, the
company believes first, that the court lacks jurisdiction over
Chevron; second, that the law under which plaintiffs bring the
action, enacted in 1999, cannot be applied retroactively; third,
that the claims are barred by the statute of limitations in
Ecuador; and, fourth, that the lawsuit is also barred by the
releases from liability previously given to Texpet by the
Republic of Ecuador and Petroecuador. With regard to the facts,
the company believes that the evidence confirms that
Texpets remediation was properly conducted and that the
remaining environmental damage reflects Petroecuadors
failure to timely fulfill its legal obligations and
Petroecuadors further conduct since assuming full control
over the operations.
In April 2008, a mining engineer appointed by the court to
identify and determine the cause of environmental damage, and to
specify steps needed to remediate it, issued a report
recommending that the court assess $8 billion, which would,
according to the engineer, provide financial compensation for
purported damages, including wrongful death claims, and pay for,
among other items, environmental remediation, health care
systems and additional infrastructure for Petroecuador. The
engineers report also asserted that an additional
$8.3 billion could
16
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
be assessed against Chevron for unjust enrichment. The
engineers report is not binding on the court. Chevron also
believes that the engineers work was performed and his
report prepared in a manner contrary to law and in violation of
the courts orders. Chevron submitted a rebuttal to the
report in which it asked the court to strike the report in its
entirety. In November 2008, the engineer revised the report and,
without additional evidence, recommended an increase in the
financial compensation for purported damages to a total of
$18.9 billion and an increase in the assessment for
purported unjust enrichment to a total of $8.4 billion.
Chevron submitted a rebuttal to the revised report, which the
court dismissed. In September 2009, following the disclosure by
Chevron of evidence that the judge participated in meetings in
which businesspeople and individuals holding themselves out as
government officials discussed the case and its likely outcome,
the judge presiding over the case petitioned to be recused. In
late September 2009, the judge was recused, and in October 2009,
the full chamber of the provincial court affirmed the recusal,
resulting in the appointment of a new judge. In February 2010,
in accordance with local court process, another judge was
elected as president of the provincial court and now presides
over the trial.
The court has completed most of the procedural aspects of the
case and could render a judgment at any time. Chevron will
continue a vigorous defense of any attempted imposition of
liability. In the event of an adverse trial court judgment,
Chevron would expect to pursue its appeals in Ecuador. Because
Chevron has no substantial assets in Ecuador, Chevron would
expect enforcement actions following any adverse judgment to be
brought in other jurisdictions. Chevron would expect to contest
any such actions. The ultimate outcome, including any financial
effect on Chevron, remains uncertain.
Management does not believe an estimate of a reasonably possible
loss (or a range of loss) can be made in this case. Due to the
defects associated with the engineers report, management
does not believe the report has any utility in calculating a
reasonably possible loss (or a range of loss). Moreover, the
highly uncertain legal environment surrounding the case provides
no basis for management to estimate a reasonably possible loss
(or a range of loss).

Other
Contingencies and Commitments
|
Guarantees The company and its subsidiaries have certain
other contingent liabilities with respect to guarantees, direct
or indirect, of debt of affiliated companies or third parties.
Under the terms of the guarantee arrangements, generally the
company would be required to perform should the affiliated
company or third party fail to fulfill its obligations under the
arrangements. In some cases, the guarantee arrangements may have
recourse provisions that would enable the company to recover any
payments made under the terms of the guarantees from assets
provided as collateral.
Off-Balance-Sheet Obligations The company and its
subsidiaries have certain other contingent liabilities relating
to long-term unconditional purchase obligations and commitments,
including throughput and
take-or-pay
agreements, some of which relate to suppliers financing
arrangements. The agreements typically provide goods and
services, such as pipeline and storage capacity, drilling rigs,
utilities, and petroleum products, to be used or sold in the
ordinary course of the companys business.
Indemnifications The company provided certain indemnities
of contingent liabilities of Equilon and Motiva to Shell and
Saudi Refining, Inc., in connection with the February 2002 sale
of the companys interests in those investments. The
company would be required to perform if the indemnified
liabilities become actual losses. Were that to occur, the
company could be required to make future payments up to
$300 million. Through June 2010, the company paid
$48 million under these indemnities and continues to be
obligated for possible additional indemnification payments in
the future.
The company has also provided indemnities relating to contingent
environmental liabilities related to assets originally
contributed by Texaco to the Equilon and Motiva joint ventures
and environmental conditions that existed prior to the formation
of Equilon and Motiva or that occurred during the period of
Texacos ownership interest in the joint ventures. In
general, the environmental conditions or events that are subject
to these indemnities must have arisen prior to December 2001.
Claims had to be asserted by February 2009 for Equilon
indemnities and must be asserted no later than February 2012 for
Motiva indemnities. Under the terms of these indemnities, there
is no maximum limit on the amount of potential future payments.
In February 2009, Shell delivered a letter to the
17
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
company purporting to preserve unmatured claims for certain
Equilon indemnities. The letter itself provides no estimate of
the ultimate claim amount. Management does not believe this
letter or any other information provides a basis to estimate the
amount, if any, of a range of loss or potential range of loss
with respect to either the Equilon or the Motiva indemnities.
The company posts no assets as collateral and has made no
payments under the indemnities.
The amounts payable for the indemnities described in the
preceding paragraph are to be net of amounts recovered from
insurance carriers and others and net of liabilities recorded by
Equilon or Motiva prior to September 30, 2001, for any
applicable incident.
In the acquisition of Unocal, the company assumed certain
indemnities relating to contingent environmental liabilities
associated with assets that were sold in 1997. The acquirer of
those assets shared in certain environmental remediation costs
up to a maximum obligation of $200 million, which had been
reached at December 31, 2009. Under the indemnification
agreement, after reaching the $200 million obligation,
Chevron is solely responsible until April 2022, when the
indemnification expires. The environmental conditions or events
that are subject to these indemnities must have arisen prior to
the sale of the assets in 1997.
Although the company has provided for known obligations under
this indemnity that are probable and reasonably estimable, the
amount of additional future costs may be material to results of
operations in the period in which they are recognized. The
company does not expect these costs will have a material effect
on its consolidated financial position or liquidity.
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, including MTBE, by the company or other parties.
Such contingencies may exist for various sites, including, but
not limited to, federal Superfund sites and analogous sites
under state laws, refineries, crude oil fields, service
stations, terminals, land development areas, and mining
operations, whether operating, closed or divested. These 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 companys liability in proportion to
other responsible parties, and the extent to which such costs
are recoverable from third parties.
Although the company has provided for known environmental
obligations that are probable and reasonably estimable, the
amount of additional future costs may be material to results of
operations in the period in which they are recognized. The
company does not expect these costs will have a material effect
on its consolidated financial position or liquidity. Also, the
company does not believe its obligations to make such
expenditures have had, or will have, any significant impact on
the companys competitive position relative to other
U.S. or international petroleum or chemical companies.
Financial Instruments The company believes it has no
material market or credit risks to its operations, financial
position or liquidity as a result of its commodities and other
derivative activities.
Equity Redetermination For crude oil and natural gas
producing operations, ownership agreements may provide for
periodic reassessments of equity interests in estimated crude
oil and natural gas reserves. These activities, individually or
together, may result in gains or losses that could be material
to earnings in any given period. One such equity redetermination
process has been under way since 1996 for Chevrons
interests in four producing zones at the Naval Petroleum Reserve
at Elk Hills, California, for the time when the remaining
interests in these zones were owned by the U.S. Department
of Energy. A wide range remains for a possible net settlement
amount for the four zones. For this range of settlement, Chevron
estimates its maximum possible net before-tax liability at
approximately $200 million, and the possible maximum net
amount that could be owed to Chevron is estimated at about
$150 million. The timing of the settlement and the exact
amount within this range of estimates are uncertain.
Other Contingencies On April 26, 2010, a California
appeals court issued a ruling related to the adequacy of an
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) supporting the issuance of

court for entry of a final judgment consistent with the appeals
courts decision. The company is evaluating the ruling and
its options going forward, which may include requesting the city
to revise the EIR to address the issues identified by the Court
of Appeal or other actions. Management believes the outcomes
associated with the potential options for the project are
uncertain. Due to the uncertainty of the companys future
course of action, or potential outcomes of any action or
combination of actions, management does not believe an estimate
of the financial effects, if any, of the ruling can be made at
this time. However, the companys ultimate exposure may be
significant to net income in any one future period.
Chevron receives claims from and submits claims to customers;
trading partners; U.S. federal, state and local regulatory
bodies; governments; contractors; insurers; and suppliers. The
amounts of these claims, individually and in the aggregate, may
be significant and take lengthy periods to resolve.
The company and its affiliates also continue to review and
analyze their operations and may close, abandon, 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 gains or losses in future periods.

Fair
Value Measurements
|
Accounting standards for fair-value measurement (ASC
820) establish a framework for measuring fair value and
stipulate disclosures about fair-value measurements. The
standards apply to recurring and nonrecurring financial and
nonfinancial assets and liabilities that require or permit
fair-value measurements. Among the required disclosures is the
fair-value hierarchy of inputs the company uses to value an
asset or a liability. The three levels of the fair-value
hierarchy are described as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for
identical assets and liabilities. For the company, Level 1
inputs include exchange-traded futures contracts for which the
parties are willing to transact at the exchange-quoted price and
marketable securities that are actively traded.
Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are
observable, either directly or indirectly. For the company,
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities, prices obtained through third-party broker quotes
and prices that can be corroborated with other observable inputs
for substantially the complete term of a contract.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs. The company does not use
Level 3 inputs for any of its recurring fair-value
measurements. Level 3 inputs may be required for the
determination of fair value associated with certain nonrecurring
measurements of nonfinancial assets and liabilities.

Marketable Securities The company calculates fair value
for its marketable securities based on quoted market prices for
identical assets and liabilities. The fair values reflect the
cash that would have been received if the instruments were sold
at June 30, 2010.
Derivatives The company records its derivative
instruments other than any commodity derivative
contracts that are designated as normal purchase and normal
sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair
value, with virtually all the offsetting amount to the
Consolidated Statement of Income. For derivatives with identical
or similar provisions as contracts that are publicly traded on a
regular basis, the company uses the market values of the
publicly traded instruments as an input for fair-value
calculations.
The companys derivative instruments principally include
crude oil, natural gas and refined product futures, swaps,
options and forward contracts. Derivatives classified as
Level 1 include futures, swaps and options contracts traded
in active markets such as the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Derivatives classified as Level 2 include swaps, options,
and forward contracts principally with financial institutions
and other oil and gas companies, the fair values for 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. The company incorporates
internal review, evaluation and assessment procedures, including
a comparison of Level 2 fair values derived from the
companys internally developed forward curves (on a sample
basis) with the pricing information to document reasonable,
logical and supportable fair-value determinations and proper
level of classification.
Impairments of Properties, plant and equipment
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a
nonrecurring basis were not material to the companys
financial position, results of operations or liquidity in the
three- and six-month periods of 2010. Before-tax losses
associated with the impairment of property, plant and equipment
held and used and held for sale in the second quarter 2009 were
$155 million and $48 million, respectively, and for
the six months ended June 30, 2009, were $265 million
and $92 million, respectively. The losses in 2009 were the
result of fair values determined both from internal cash-flow
models, using discount rates consistent with those used by the
company to evaluate cash flows of other assets of a similar
nature, and from bids received from prospective buyers of assets
held for sale.

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
Assets and Liabilities not Required to be Measured at Fair
Value The company holds cash equivalents and bank time
deposits in U.S. and
non-U.S. portfolios.
The instruments classified as cash equivalents are primarily
bank time deposits with maturities of 90 days or less and
money market funds. Cash and cash equivalents had
carrying/fair values of $9.4 billion and $8.7 billion
at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
The instruments held in Time deposits are bank time
deposits with maturities greater than 90 days, and had
carrying/fair values of $3.8 billion at June 30, 2010.
The fair values of cash, cash equivalents and bank time deposits
reflect the cash that would have been received or paid if the
instruments were settled at June 30, 2010.
Cash and cash equivalents does not include
investments with a carrying/fair value of $36 million and
$123 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31,
2009, respectively. These investments are restricted funds
related to an international upstream development project and
Pascagoula Refinery projects, which are reported in
Deferred charges and other assets on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet. Long-term debt of $5.6 billion
and $5.7 billion had estimated fair values of
$6.3 billion and $6.2 billion at June 30, 2010
and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Fair values of other financial instruments at June 30, 2010
were not material.

Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities
|
The companys derivative instruments principally include
crude oil, natural gas and refined product futures, swaps,
options and forward contracts. None of the companys
derivative instruments are designated as a hedging instrument,
although certain of the companys affiliates make such
designation. The companys derivatives are not material to
the companys 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 commodities and other derivatives activities.
Derivative instruments measured at fair value at June 30,
2010 and December 31, 2009, and their classification on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Income

Transfers and Servicing (ASC 860), Accounting for Transfers
of Financial Assets (ASU
2009-16)
The FASB issued ASU
2009-16 in
December 2009. This standard became effective for the company on
January 1, 2010. ASU
2009-16
changes how companies account for transfers of financial assets
and eliminates the concept of qualifying special-purpose
entities. Adoption of the guidance did not have an effect on the
companys results of operations, financial position or
liquidity.
Consolidation (ASC 810), Improvements to Financial Reporting
by Enterprises Involved With Variable Interest Entities (ASU
2009-17)
The FASB issued ASU
2009-17 in
December 2009. This standard became effective for the company on
January 1, 2010. ASU
2009-17
requires the enterprise to qualitatively assess if it is the
primary beneficiary of a variable-interest entity (VIE), and, if
so, the VIE must be consolidated. Adoption of the standard did
not have an impact on the companys results of operations,
financial position or liquidity.
|
|
Note 16.
|
Restructuring
and Reorganization Costs
|
In the first quarter 2010, the company announced employee
reduction programs related to the restructuring and
reorganization of its downstream businesses and corporate
staffs. Approximately 3,200 employees in the refining,
marketing, and supply and trading operations, and
600 employees from corporate staffs, are expected to be
terminated under the programs. About 1,900 of the affected
positions are located in the United States. It is anticipated
that 2,400 employees of the total covered under the
programs will be terminated during 2010, and the programs are
expected to be completed by the end of 2011.
A before-tax charge of $244 million ($175 million
after-tax) was recorded in the first quarter 2010, with
$191 million reported as Operating expenses and
$53 million as Selling, general and administrative
expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Income. The
accrued liability is classified as current on the Consolidated
Balance Sheet.
Approximately $80 million ($50 million after-tax) is
associated with terminations in the U.S. Downstream,
$127 million ($100 million after-tax) in International
Downstream and $37 million ($25 million after-tax) in
All Other.
During second quarter 2010, the company made payments of
$6 million associated with these liabilities. The majority
of the payments were in Downstream.

Net income attributable to Chevron Corporation for the
second quarter 2010 was $5.41 billion ($2.70 per
share diluted), compared with $1.75 billion
($0.87 per share diluted) in the corresponding 2009
period. Net income attributable to Chevron Corporation for the
first six months of 2010 was $9.96 billion ($4.97 per
share diluted), versus $3.58 billion ($1.79 per
share diluted) in the first six months of 2009.
The activities reported in Chevrons upstream and
downstream operating segments have changed effective
January 1, 2010. Results for the chemicals businesses are
now reported as part of the downstream segment. In addition, the
companys significant upstream-enabling operations,
primarily a
gas-to-liquids
project and major international export pipelines, have been
reclassified from the downstream segment to the upstream
segment. Prior period information in this report has been
revised to conform to the 2010 presentation.
Upstream earnings in the second quarter 2010 were
$4.54 billion, compared with $1.66 billion in the 2009
quarter. Earnings for the first six months of 2010 were
$9.27 billion, versus $3.04 billion a year earlier.
The increase between both comparative periods was due mainly to
higher prices for crude oil and natural gas, and increased
production of crude oil.
Downstream earnings were $975 million in the second
quarter 2010, compared with $131 million in the
year-earlier period. Earnings for the first six months of 2010
were $1.17 billion, versus $884 million in the
corresponding 2009 period. The increase between both comparative
periods was primarily associated with favorable changes in
effects on derivative instruments, improved margins on refined
products, and higher earnings from chemicals
operations primarily from the 50 percent-owned
Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC. Earnings for the second
quarter
23
and first half of 2009 included $140 million and
$540 million, respectively, of gains on sales of marketing
businesses outside the United States.
Refer to pages 28 through 31 for additional discussion of
results by business segment and All Other activities
for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 versus the
same periods in 2009.
Business
Environment and Outlook
Chevron is a global energy company with significant business
activities in the following countries: Angola, Argentina,
Australia, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Brazil, Cambodia, Canada,
Chad, China, Colombia, Democratic Republic of the Congo,
Denmark, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Myanmar, the Netherlands,
Nigeria, Norway, the Partitioned Zone between Saudi Arabia and
Kuwait, the Philippines, Republic of the Congo, Singapore, South
Africa, South Korea, Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago, the United
Kingdom, the United States, Venezuela, and Vietnam.
Earnings of the company depend largely on the profitability of
its upstream and downstream business segments. The single
biggest factor that affects the results of operations for both
segments is movement in the price of crude oil. In the
downstream business, crude oil is the largest cost component of
refined products. The overall trend in earnings is typically
less affected by results from the companys other
activities and investments. Earnings for the company in any
period may also be influenced by events or transactions that are
infrequent or unusual in nature.
The companys operations, especially upstream, can also be
affected by changing economic, regulatory and political
environments in the various countries in which it operates,
including the United States. Civil unrest, acts of violence or
strained relations between a government and the company or other
governments may impact the companys operations or
investments. Those developments have at times significantly
affected the companys operations and results and are
carefully considered by management when evaluating the level of
current and future activity in such countries.
To sustain its long-term competitive position in the upstream
business, the company must develop and replenish an inventory of
projects that offer attractive financial returns for the
investment required. Identifying promising areas for
exploration, acquiring the necessary rights to explore for and
to produce crude oil and natural gas, drilling successfully, and
handling the many technical and operational details in a safe
and cost-effective manner are all important factors in this
effort. Projects often require long lead times and large capital
commitments. From time to time, certain governments have sought
to renegotiate contracts or impose additional costs on the
company. Governments may attempt to do so in the future. The
company will continue to monitor these developments, take them
into account in evaluating future investment opportunities, and
otherwise seek to mitigate any risks to the companys
current operations or future prospects.
The company also continually evaluates opportunities to dispose
of assets that are not expected to provide sufficient long-term
value or to acquire assets or operations complementary to its
asset base to help augment the companys financial
performance and growth. Asset dispositions and restructurings
may also occur in future periods and could result in significant
gains or losses.
In recent years, Chevron and the oil and gas industry generally
experienced an increase in certain costs that exceeded the
general trend of inflation in many areas of the world. This
increase in costs affected the companys operating expenses
and capital programs for all business segments, but particularly
for upstream. Softening of these cost pressures started in late
2008 and continued through most of 2009. Industry costs began to
level out in the fourth quarter 2009 and rose slightly in the
second quarter of 2010. The company continues to actively manage
its schedule of work, contracting, procurement and supply-chain
activities to effectively manage costs. (Refer to the
Upstream section below for a discussion of the trend
in crude oil prices.)
The company closely monitors developments in the financial and
credit markets, the level of worldwide economic activity and the
implications to 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 company remains confident of its underlying
financial strength to address potential challenges presented in
the current environment. (Refer also to the Liquidity and
Capital Resources section beginning on page 35.)
24
Comments related to earnings trends for the companys major
business areas are as follows:
Upstream Earnings for the upstream segment are
closely aligned with industry price levels 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 inventory levels, production quotas imposed
by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC),
weather-related damage and disruptions, competing fuel prices,
and regional supply interruptions or fears thereof that may be
caused by military conflicts, civil unrest or political
uncertainty. Moreover, any of these factors could also inhibit
the companys production capacity in an affected region.
The company monitors developments closely in the countries in
which it operates and holds investments, and attempts to manage
risks in operating its facilities and businesses. Besides the
impact of the fluctuation in prices for crude oil and natural
gas, the longer-term trend in earnings for the upstream segment
is also a function of other factors, including the
companys ability to find or acquire and efficiently
produce crude oil and natural gas, changes in fiscal terms of
contracts and changes in tax laws and regulations.
Price levels for capital and exploratory costs and operating
expenses associated with the production of crude oil and natural
gas can also be subject to external factors beyond the
companys control. External factors include not only the
general level of inflation but also commodity prices and prices
charged by the industrys material and service providers,
which can be affected by the volatility of the industrys
own
supply-and-demand
conditions for such materials and services. Capital and
exploratory expenditures and operating expenses also can be
affected by damage to production facilities caused by severe
weather or civil unrest.
The chart below shows the trend in benchmark prices for West
Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil and U.S. Henry Hub
natural gas. During 2009, industry price levels for WTI ranged
from $34 to $81 per barrel and finished the year at $79 per
barrel. The WTI price in the first half of 2010 averaged $78 and
ended July at $79.

A differential in crude oil prices exists between high quality
(high-gravity, low-sulfur) crudes and those of lower quality
(low-gravity, high-sulfur). The amount of the differential in
any period is associated with the supply of heavy crude
available versus the demand that is a function of the number of
refineries that are able to process this lower quality feedstock
into light products (motor gasoline, jet fuel, aviation gasoline
and diesel fuel). The differential widened in the first half of
2010
|
primarily due to greater availability of lower quality crudes.
Chevron produces or shares in the production of heavy crude oil
in California, Chad, Indonesia, the Partitioned Zone between
Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, Venezuela and in certain fields in
Angola, China and the United Kingdom sector of the North Sea.
(See page 34 for the companys average U.S. and
international crude oil realizations.)
|
In contrast to price movements in the global market for crude
oil, price changes for natural gas in many regional markets are
more closely aligned with
supply-and-demand
conditions in those markets. In the United States, prices at
Henry Hub averaged about $4.70 per thousand cubic feet (MCF) in
the first half of 2010, compared with about $4.00 during the
first half of 2009. At the end of July 2010, the Henry Hub spot
price was about $4.80 per MCF. Fluctuations in the price
for natural gas in the United States are closely associated with
customer demand relative to the volumes produced in North
America and the level of inventory in underground storage.
Certain international natural gas markets in which the company
operates have different supply, demand and regulatory
circumstances, which historically have resulted in lower average
sales prices for the companys production of natural gas in
these locations. Chevron continues to invest in long-term
projects in these locations to install infrastructure to produce
and liquefy natural gas for transport by tanker to other markets
where greater demand results in higher prices. International
natural gas realizations averaged about $4.50 per MCF during
first half of 2010, compared with about $4.00 in the same period
last year. (See page 34 for the companys average
natural gas realizations for the U.S. and international
regions.)
25
The companys worldwide net oil-equivalent production in
the first half of 2010 averaged 2.76 million barrels per
day. During the period, about one-fifth of the companys
net oil-equivalent production occurred in the OPEC-member
countries of Angola, Nigeria and Venezuela and in the
Partitioned Zone between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. OPEC quotas
had no effect on the companys net crude oil production for
the first half of 2010, while production in the corresponding
2009 period was reduced by approximately 40,000 barrels per
day due to quota limitations. At the most recent meeting in
March 2010, members of OPEC supported maintaining production
quotas in effect since December 2008.
The company currently estimates that oil-equivalent production
in 2010 will average approximately 2.78 million barrels per
day based on the 2009 average WTI price of $62 per barrel,
representing an increase of nearly 3 percent over 2009
average daily oil-equivalent production. The full-year outlook
for oil-equivalent production based on the first half 2010
average price of $78 per barrel is estimated at
2.75 million barrels per day. This estimate is subject to
many factors and uncertainties, including additional quotas that
may be imposed by OPEC, price effects on production volumes
calculated under production-sharing and variable-royalty
provisions of certain agreements, changes in fiscal terms or
restrictions on the scope of company operations, delays in
project startups, fluctuations in demand for natural gas in
various markets, weather conditions that may shut in production,
civil unrest, changing geopolitics, delays in completion of
maintenance turnarounds,
greater-than-expected
declines in production from mature fields, or other disruptions
to operations. The outlook for future production levels is also
affected by the size and number of economic investment
opportunities and, for new large-scale projects, the time lag
between initial exploration and the beginning of production.
Investments in upstream projects generally begin well in advance
of the start of the associated crude oil and natural gas
production. A significant majority of Chevrons upstream
investment is made outside the United States.
Gulf of Mexico Update On April 20, 2010, an accident
occurred on the Transocean Deepwater Horizon, a deepwater
drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico, resulting in loss of life,
the sinking of the rig and a significant oil spill. The rig was
drilling an exploratory well at the BP-operated Macondo
prospect. Chevron is not a participant in the well. Subsequent
to the event, the U.S. Department of the Interior initially
issued a moratorium to halt drilling in specified water depths,
which was lifted by a federal district court after being
challenged by certain offshore service and supply companies. The
Department of the Interior then issued a more narrow decision
memorandum suspending drilling of wells using subsea blowout
preventers (BOPs) or surface BOPs on a floating facility in the
Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific regions. This suspension extends
through November 30, 2010 or until the Secretary of the
Interior determines that deepwater drilling operations can
proceed safely, whichever is earlier. The company currently
participates on two joint industry task groups which made
initial recommendations to the Department of the Interior to
revise industry operating and equipment standards. Chevron
already uses many of these new proposed standards. Chevron will
continue to work closely with these industry task groups and the
government to learn from this accident and improve overall
safety and environmental performance of the industry. Chevron
remains committed to deepwater exploration and development in
the Gulf of Mexico and other deepwater basins around the world.
The accident and resulting administrative actions have not
affected the companys current upstream production in the
Gulf of Mexico. However, the actions have impacted development
drilling at the recently commissioned nonoperated Perdido
project and some exploration wells. The company does not expect
there to be a material impact on production for the full year
2010. The company was able to temporarily subcontract two of
three deepwater drill ships that were idled. Two shallow water
drilling rigs are on stand-by, pending issuance of permits from
the U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation, and
Enforcement to drill wells on the Gulf of Mexico Shelf. The
financial impacts of the deepwater drilling suspension and
delays in shallow water permitting on the companys results
of operations are currently immaterial. The future effects of
this incident, including any new or additional regulations that
may be adopted in response, are not known at this time.
On July 21, 2010, Chevron and three other companies
announced plans to build and deploy a rapid response system that
will be available to capture and contain crude oil in the event
of a future well blowout in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico. The
new system will be engineered to be used in water depths up to
10,000 feet and designed to have initial capacity to
contain 100,000 barrels per day, with potential for
expansion. The companies committed to equally fund the initial
$1 billion investment in the system. There will be
additional ongoing costs for operations and maintenance of the
system components. Existing equipment is expected to be secured
and available within six months with the new system targeted for
completion within 18 months. The four companies intend to
form a non-
26
profit organization, the Marine Well Containment Company, to
operate and maintain this system. Other companies will be
invited and encouraged to participate in this organization.
Refer to the Results of Operations section on pages
28-30 for
additional discussion of the companys 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, and
petrochemicals. 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 refinery crude oil feedstocks, petrochemical
feedstocks and fuel costs. Industry margins can also be
influenced by inventory levels, geopolitical events, cost 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 companys
refining and marketing network, the effectiveness of the crude
oil and product-supply functions and the volatility of
tanker-charter rates for the companys shipping operations,
which are driven by the industrys demand for crude oil and
product tankers. Other factors beyond the companys control
include the general level of inflation and energy costs to
operate the companys refinery and distribution network.
The companys most significant marketing areas are the West
Coast of North America, the U.S. Gulf Coast, Latin America,
Asia, southern Africa and the United Kingdom. Chevron operates
or has significant ownership interests in refineries in each of
these areas except Latin America. The company plans to
discontinue, by the end of the third quarter 2010, sales of
Chevron- and Texaco-branded motor fuels in the District of
Columbia, Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, New
Jersey, Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia,
West Virginia and parts of Tennessee, where the company sold to
retail customers through approximately 1,100 stations and to
commercial and industrial customers through supply arrangements.
During 2009, sales in these markets represented approximately
8 percent of the companys total U.S. retail fuel
sales volumes. Additionally, in January 2010, the company sold
the rights to the Gulf trademark in the United States and its
territories that it had previously licensed for use in the
U.S. Northeast and Puerto Rico.
The companys refining and marketing margins in second
quarter 2010 improved over the same period in 2009, but remain
relatively weak due to the economic slowdown, excess refined
product supplies and surplus refining capacity. Expecting these
conditions to continue for several years, in the first quarter
2010, the company announced that its downstream businesses would
be restructured to improve operating efficiency and achieve
sustained improvement in financial performance. As part of this
restructuring, employee-reduction programs were announced for
the United States and international downstream operations.
Approximately 3,200 employees in the refining, marketing,
and supply and trading operations are expected to be terminated
under the programs. About 1,300 of the affected positions are
located in the United States. It is anticipated that
2,000 employees will be terminated during 2010, and the
programs are expected to be completed by the end of 2011. Refer
to Note 16 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, on
page 22, for further discussion. The company is also
soliciting bids for 13 U.S. terminals and certain
operations in Europe (including the companys Pembroke
Refinery), the Caribbean and select Central America markets.
These potential market exits, dispositions of assets and other
actions may result in gains or losses in future periods.
Refer to the Results of Operations section on pages
30-31 for
additional discussion of the companys downstream
operations.
All Other consists of mining operations, power
generation businesses, worldwide cash management and debt
financing activities, corporate administrative functions,
insurance operations, real estate activities, alternative fuels,
and technology companies. In the first quarter 2010,
employee-reduction programs were announced for the corporate
staffs. Approximately 600 employees from the corporate
staffs are expected to be terminated under the programs by the
end of 2011, including 400 that will be terminated during 2010.
Refer to Note 16 of the Consolidated Financial Statements,
on page 22, for further discussion.

U.S. upstream earnings of $1.09 billion in the second
quarter of 2010 increased $810 million from the same period
last year. Higher prices for crude oil and natural gas increased
earnings by about $630 million between periods, and higher
liquids production in the 2010 quarter benefited earnings by
$60 million.
Earnings for the first six months of 2010 were approximately
$2.25 billion, up about $1.94 billion from the
corresponding period in 2009. Higher prices for crude oil and
natural gas increased earnings by about $1.68 billion
between periods, while an increase in net oil-equivalent
production in the 2010 period benefited income by about
$200 million. Other items of lesser significance were
largely offsetting between periods.
The average realization per barrel for crude oil and natural gas
liquids in the second quarter of 2010 was approximately $71,
compared with $50 a year earlier. For the six-month periods,
average realizations were about $71 and $43 for 2010 and 2009,
respectively. The average natural gas realization in the second
quarter 2010 was
28
$4.01 per thousand cubic feet, compared with $3.27 in the
year-ago period. The average six-month realizations were $4.66
in 2010 and $3.70 in 2009.
Net oil-equivalent production of 708,000 barrels per day in
the second quarter 2010 was up 8,000 barrels per day, or
1 percent, from the corresponding period in 2009. The
increase in production was primarily associated with
start-up of
the Tahiti Field in second quarter 2009, along with the
restoration of volumes that were offline in the second quarter
of 2009 due to 2008 hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico, partly
offset by natural field declines.
First-half 2010 production was 721,000 barrels per day, up
35,000 from the corresponding 2009 period. The increase was
primarily associated with new production, mostly from the
start-up of
the Tahiti Field in second quarter 2009 and
ramp-up of
the Blind Faith Field, which began production in late 2008,
along with the restoration of volumes that were offline in the
first half of 2009 due to 2008 hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico.
The net liquids component of oil-equivalent production was
488,000 barrels per day and 496,000 barrels per day
for the second quarter and six months of 2010, respectively.
Those volumes were 4 percent and 9 percent higher than
the corresponding 2009 periods. Net natural gas production of
1.32 billion cubic feet per day in the second quarter 2010
and 1.35 billion cubic feet per day in first half of 2010
decreased 6 percent and 3 percent from the comparative
2009 periods.

International upstream earnings of $3.45 billion in the
second quarter 2010 increased about $2.08 billion from the
corresponding period in 2009. Higher prices for crude oil and
natural gas increased earnings by about $1.16 billion, and
higher liquids production in the second quarter 2010 benefited
earnings by about $260 million. Foreign currency effects
increased earnings by $107 million in the 2010 quarter,
compared with a decrease of $467 million a year earlier.
Earnings for the first six months of 2010 were
$7.02 billion, up $4.29 billion from the same period
in 2009. Higher prices for crude oil and natural gas increased
earnings by $2.87 billion, while an increase in net
oil-equivalent production in the 2010 period benefited income by
about $430 million. A favorable change in tax items also
benefited earnings by about $400 million in the 2010
period. Foreign currency effects increased earnings by
$5 million in the 2010 period, compared with a reduction of
$434 million a year earlier.
The average realization per barrel of crude oil and natural gas
liquids in the second quarter 2010 and six-month period was
about $71, compared with $53 and $46 in the corresponding 2009
periods. The average natural gas realization in the 2010 second
quarter was $4.40 per thousand cubic feet, up from $3.73 in the
second quarter last year. Between the six-month periods, the
average natural gas realization increased to $4.50 from $3.97.
Net oil-equivalent production was about 2.04 million
barrels per day in the second quarter 2010, up approximately
68,000 barrels per day from the year-ago period. The
increase included approximately 72,000 barrels per day
associated with
ramp-up of
two projects the expansion at Tengiz in Kazakhstan
and Frade in Brazil. The impact of higher prices on
cost-recovery volumes and other contractual provisions decreased
net production from last years second quarter.
Net oil-equivalent production for the six-months of 2010 was
2.04 million barrels per day, up 62,000 barrels per
day from the 2009 period. The increase included approximately
117,000 barrels per day associated with the
start-up and
ramp-up of
several major capital projects the expansion at
Tengiz in Kazakhstan, Agbami in Nigeria,
Tombua-Landana
and Mafumeira Norte in Angola, and Frade in Brazil. Normal field
declines and the impact of higher prices on cost-recovery
volumes and other contractual provisions decreased net
production from last years comparative period.
The net liquids component of oil-equivalent production was
1.42 million barrels per day in the second quarter 2010 and
1.43 million barrels per day in the six-month period, an
increase of 4 and 3 percent for the respective periods.

U.S. downstream earned $433 million in the second
quarter 2010, compared with a loss of $51 million a year
earlier. Improved margins on refined products increased earnings
by $260 million, while a favorable change in effects on
derivative instruments contributed about $100 million.
Higher earnings from chemicals operations primarily
from improved margins at the 50 percent-owned Chevron
Phillips Chemical Company LLC (CPChem) also
increased earnings by about $90 million.
Earnings for the first six months of 2010 were
$515 million, compared with $85 million in the same
period of 2009. Earnings from chemicals operations increased
about $180 million, primarily from higher margins at
CPChem. Improved margins on refined products benefited earnings
by about $100 million and a favorable change in effects on
derivative instruments contributed about $80 million.
Refinery crude-input of 917,000 barrels per day in the
second quarter 2010 decreased 6,000 barrels per day from
the year-ago period. Inputs of 903,000 barrels per day for
the six months of 2010 decreased about 3 percent from the
corresponding 2009 period.
Refined product sales of 1.41 million barrels per day for
the quarterly period and 1.38 million barrels per day for
the six-month period of 2010 declined 2 percent and
3 percent, respectively. The declines were mainly due to
lower jet fuel and fuel oil sales for both periods. Branded
gasoline sales decreased to 605,000 and 593,000 barrels per
day for the second quarter and six months in 2010, each
representing an approximate 5 percent decrease from the
corresponding 2009 periods.

International downstream earned $542 million in the second
quarter 2010, compared with $182 million a year earlier.
The increase was due to a favorable change in effects on
derivative instruments of about $530 million, partially
offset by the absence of $140 million in gains from asset
sales in 2009. Foreign currency effects increased earnings by
$131 million in the 2010 quarter, compared with a reduction
of $28 million a year earlier.
Earnings for the first six months of 2010 were
$656 million, down $143 million from the corresponding
2009 period. The decline was due mainly to the absence of 2009
gains on asset sales of about $540 million and higher
charges of $250 million, primarily related to employee
reductions and transportation costs. A favorable change in
effects on derivative instruments benefited earnings by about
$440 million and higher margins on the sale of gasoline and
other refined products increased earnings by about
$150 million. Foreign currency effects benefited earnings
by $35 million in 2010, compared with a reduction of
$86 million a year earlier.
The companys share of crude oil inputs to refineries was
954,000 barrels per day in the 2010 second quarter, down
16,000 from the year-ago period. For the six months of 2010,
crude oil inputs were 973,000 barrels per day, down 4,000
from the year-ago period. The decrease for both comparative
periods was attributable mainly to greater planned and unplanned
refinery downtime.
30
Refined product sales volumes of 1.78 million barrels per
day in the 2010 second quarter were 3 percent lower than a
year earlier, due mainly to lower sales of gas oil and fuel oil.
Total refined product sales of about 1.75 million barrels
per day for the first six months of 2010 were about
7 percent lower than in the corresponding periods of 2009,
mainly due to asset sales in certain countries in Africa and
Latin America. Excluding the impact of asset sales, refined
product sales were down 2 percent between quarters and
3 percent between the six-month periods on reduced volumes
of jet fuel and fuel oil.

Net charges in the second quarter 2010 were $108 million,
compared with $43 million in the year-ago period. The
change between periods was mainly due to higher charges for
employee compensation and benefits partly offset by lower other
net charges. Foreign currency effects reduced net charges by
$3 million in the 2010 quarter, compared with a
$42 million reduction in net charges last year. For the six
months of 2010, net charges were $476 million, compared
with $337 million a year earlier. Net charges for corporate
tax items and employee compensation and benefits were higher in
the 2010 six-month period.

Income from equity affiliates increased between the quarterly
and six-month periods due mainly to higher upstream-related
earnings from Tengizchevroil in Kazakhstan and Petropiar and
Petroboscan in Venezuela, principally related to higher prices
for crude oil and increased crude oil production.
Downstream-related earnings were also higher between the
comparative periods due primarily to improved margins on refined
products and a favorable swing in foreign currency effects at GS
Caltex in South Korea, and higher earnings from Chevron Phillips
Chemical Company LLC, as a result of higher margins on sales of
commodity chemicals.

Other income for the quarterly period in 2010 increased mainly
due to foreign currency gains and higher gains on asset sales.
The increase for the six-month period was primarily the result
of a favorable swing in foreign currency effects, partially
offset by lower gains on asset sales.

increased approximately $475 million between quarters and
$783 million between the six-month periods. Higher expenses
were primarily related to equipment rentals, fuel, employee
compensation and benefits, environmental remediation, and
transportation. These accounted for approximately
$330 million and $565 million of the increase between
the quarterly and six-month periods, respectively. In addition,
charges of $244 million related to employee reductions
recorded in the first quarter are included in the 2010 six-month
period.

The increase in expenses for the second quarter and six-month
periods mainly reflected $200 million and $500 million
in higher costs associated with higher crude oil and natural gas
production, respectively. Partially offsetting these effects
were lower upstream impairments in both comparative periods.

Effective income tax rates for the 2010 and 2009 second quarters
were 38 percent and 47 percent, respectively. For the
year-to-date
periods, the effective tax rates were 39 and 45 percent,
respectively.
The decline in the effective tax rates in both the quarterly and
six-month comparisons was primarily due to the impact of foreign
currency translation effects on Income Before Income Tax
Expense, with no corresponding impact on Income Tax Expense.
Also contributing to these declines was a lower effective tax
rate in the companys international upstream operations,
driven primarily by the increased utilization of tax credits
resulting from higher taxable profits in certain foreign tax
jurisdictions. Additionally, a smaller proportion of income was
earned in 2010 from international upstreams higher tax
rate jurisdictions.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Cash, cash equivalents, time deposits and marketable
securities totaled approximately $13.2 billion at
June 30, 2010, up $4.4 billion from year-end 2009.
Cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of
2010 was $15.1 billion, compared with $5.7 billion in
the year-ago period. Operating cash flows generated funds in
excess of the requirements for the companys
$8.8 billion capital and exploratory program and
$2.8 billion of dividend payments to common shareholders
during the first six months of 2010.
Dividends The company paid dividends of $2.8 billion
to common stockholders during the first six months of 2010. In
July 2010, the company declared a quarterly dividend of 72 cents
per common share payable in September 2010.
Debt and Capital Lease Obligations Chevrons total
debt and capital lease obligations were $10.5 billion at
June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
The companys debt and capital lease obligations due within
one year, consisting primarily of commercial paper and the
current portion of long-term debt, totaled $4.6 billion at
both June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. Of this
amount, $4.2 billion was reclassified to long-term at the
end of both periods. At June 30, 2010, settlement of these
obligations was not expected to require the use of working
capital within one year, as the company had the intent and the
ability, as evidenced by committed credit facilities, to
refinance them on a long-term basis.
At June 30, 2010, the company had $6.0 billion in
committed credit facilities with various major banks, which
enable the refinancing of short-term obligations on a long-term
basis. These facilities support commercial paper borrowing and
can also be used for general corporate purposes. The
companys 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 facilities would be unsecured indebtedness
at interest rates based on London Interbank Offered Rate or an
average of base lending rates published by specified banks and
on terms reflecting the companys strong credit rating. No
borrowings were outstanding under these facilities at
June 30, 2010. In addition, the company has an automatic
shelf registration statement that expires in March 2013 for an
unspecified amount of nonconvertible debt securities issued or
guaranteed by the company.
The major debt rating agencies routinely evaluate the
companys debt, and the companys cost of borrowing
can increase or decrease depending on these debt ratings. The
company has outstanding public bonds issued by Chevron
Corporation, Chevron Corporation Profit Sharing/Savings Plan
Trust Fund, Texaco Capital Inc. and Union Oil Company of
California. All of these securities are the obligations of, or
guaranteed by, Chevron Corporation and are rated AA by Standard
and Poors Corporation and Aa1 by Moodys Investors
Service. The companys U.S. commercial paper is rated
A-1+ by
Standard and Poors and
P-1 by
Moodys. All of these ratings denote high-quality,
investment-grade securities.
The companys future debt level is dependent primarily on
results of operations, the capital-spending program and cash
that may be generated from asset dispositions. Based on its
high-quality debt ratings, the company believes that it has
substantial borrowing capacity to meet unanticipated cash
requirements. The company also can modify capital-spending plans
during periods of low prices for crude oil and natural gas and
narrow margins for refined products and commodity chemicals to
provide flexibility to continue paying the common stock dividend
and maintain the companys high-quality debt ratings.
Common Stock Repurchase Program In July 2010, the company
terminated the $15 billion share repurchase program
initiated in September 2007. No share repurchases occurred in
2010 prior to the termination of this program. From the
inception of the program, the company acquired 119 million
shares at a cost of $10.1 billion. In its place, the Board
of Directors approved a new, ongoing share repurchase program
with no set term or monetary limits. Under the new program, the
company will acquire its common shares at prevailing prices, as
permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements and
subject to market conditions and other factors. The company does
not plan to purchase any shares in the third quarter 2010.
Noncontrolling Interests The company reported
noncontrolling interests of $722 million and
$647 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31,
2009, respectively. Distributions to noncontrolling interests
totaled $31 million during the first six months of 2010.
35
Current Ratio current assets divided by
current liabilities. The current ratio was 1.6 at June 30,
2010, and 1.4 at December 31, 2009. The current ratio is
adversely affected by the fact that Chevrons inventories
are valued on a
Last-In,
First-Out basis. At June 30, 2010, the book value of
inventory was lower than replacement costs.
Debt Ratio total debt as a percentage of
total debt plus Chevron Corporation Stockholders Equity.
This ratio was 9.5 percent at June 30, 2010, and
10.3 percent at year-end 2009.
Pension Obligations At the end of 2009, the company
estimated it would contribute $900 million to employee
pension plans during 2010 (composed of $600 million for the
U.S. plans and $300 million for the international
plans). Total estimated contributions for 2010 remain unchanged.
Through June 30, 2010, a total of $347 million was
contributed (including $272 million to the
U.S. plans). Actual contribution amounts are dependent upon
investment returns, changes in pension obligations, regulatory
environments and other economic factors. Additional funding may
ultimately be required if investment returns are insufficient to
offset increases in plan obligations.
Capital and Exploratory Expenditures Total expenditures,
including the companys share of spending by affiliates,
were $9.4 billion in the first six months of 2010, compared
with $11.4 billion in the corresponding 2009 period. The
amounts included the companys share of affiliates
expenditures of about $600 million in both the 2010 and
2009 periods. Outlays in the 2009 period included
$2 billion for the extension of an upstream concession.
Expenditures for upstream projects in the first six months of
2010 were about $8.3 billion, representing 88 percent
of the companywide total.

Contingencies
and Significant Litigation
MTBE Chevron and many other companies in the petroleum
industry have used methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) as a
gasoline additive. Chevron is a party to 53 pending lawsuits and
claims, the majority of which involve numerous other petroleum
marketers and refiners. Resolution of these lawsuits and claims
may ultimately require the company to correct or ameliorate the
alleged effects on the environment of prior release of MTBE by
the company or other parties. Additional lawsuits and claims
related to the use of MTBE, including personal-injury claims,
may be filed in the future. The companys ultimate exposure
related to pending lawsuits and claims is not determinable, but
could be material to net income in any one period. The company
no longer uses MTBE in the manufacture of gasoline in the United
States.
Ecuador Chevron is a defendant in a civil lawsuit before
the Superior Court of Nueva Loja in Lago Agrio, Ecuador, brought
in May 2003 by plaintiffs who claim to be representatives of
certain residents of an area where an oil production consortium
formerly had operations. The lawsuit alleges damage to the
environment from the oil exploration and production operations
and seeks unspecified damages to fund environmental remediation
and
36
restoration of the alleged environmental harm, plus a health
monitoring program. Until 1992, Texaco Petroleum Company
(Texpet), a subsidiary of Texaco Inc., was a minority member of
this consortium with Petroecuador, the Ecuadorian state-owned
oil company, as the majority partner; since 1990, the operations
have been conducted solely by Petroecuador. At the conclusion of
the consortium and following an independent third-party
environmental audit of the concession area, Texpet entered into
a formal agreement with the Republic of Ecuador and Petroecuador
for Texpet to remediate specific sites assigned by the
government in proportion to Texpets ownership share of the
consortium. Pursuant to that agreement, Texpet conducted a
three-year remediation program at a cost of $40 million.
After certifying that the sites were properly remediated, the
government granted Texpet and all related corporate entities a
full release from any and all environmental liability arising
from the consortium operations.
Based on the history described above, Chevron believes that this
lawsuit lacks legal or factual merit. As to matters of law, the
company believes first, that the court lacks jurisdiction over
Chevron; second, that the law under which plaintiffs bring the
action, enacted in 1999, cannot be applied retroactively; third,
that the claims are barred by the statute of limitations in
Ecuador; and, fourth, that the lawsuit is also barred by the
releases from liability previously given to Texpet by the
Republic of Ecuador and Petroecuador. With regard to the facts,
the company believes that the evidence confirms that
Texpets remediation was properly conducted and that the
remaining environmental damage reflects Petroecuadors
failure to timely fulfill its legal obligations and
Petroecuadors further conduct since assuming full control
over the operations.
In April 2008, a mining engineer appointed by the court to
identify and determine the cause of environmental damage, and to
specify steps needed to remediate it, issued a report
recommending that the court assess $8 billion, which would,
according to the engineer, provide financial compensation for
purported damages, including wrongful death claims, and pay for,
among other items, environmental remediation, health care
systems and additional infrastructure for Petroecuador. The
engineers report also asserted that an additional
$8.3 billion could be assessed against Chevron for unjust
enrichment. The engineers report is not binding on the
court. Chevron also believes that the engineers work was
performed and his report prepared in a manner contrary to law
and in violation of the courts orders. Chevron submitted a
rebuttal to the report in which it asked the court to strike the
report in its entirety. In November 2008, the engineer revised
the report and, without additional evidence, recommended an
increase in the financial compensation for purported damages to
a total of $18.9 billion and an increase in the assessment
for purported unjust enrichment to a total of $8.4 billion.
Chevron submitted a rebuttal to the revised report, which the
court dismissed. In September 2009, following the disclosure by
Chevron of evidence that the judge participated in meetings in
which businesspeople and individuals holding themselves out as
government officials discussed the case and its likely outcome,
the judge presiding over the case petitioned to be recused. In
late September 2009, the judge was recused, and in October 2009,
the full chamber of the provincial court affirmed the recusal,
resulting in the appointment of a new judge. In February 2010,
in accordance with local court process, another judge was
elected as president of the provincial court and now presides
over the trial.
The court has completed most of the procedural aspects of the
case and could render a judgment at any time. Chevron will
continue a vigorous defense of any attempted imposition of
liability. In the event of an adverse trial court judgment,
Chevron would expect to pursue its appeals in Ecuador. Because
Chevron has no substantial assets in Ecuador, Chevron would
expect enforcement actions following any adverse judgment to be
brought in other jurisdictions. Chevron would expect to contest
any such actions. The ultimate outcome, including any financial
effect on Chevron, remains uncertain.
Management does not believe an estimate of a reasonably possible
loss (or a range of loss) can be made in this case. Due to the
defects associated with the engineers report, management
does not believe the report has any utility in calculating a
reasonably possible loss (or a range of loss). Moreover, the
highly uncertain legal environment surrounding the case provides
no basis for management to estimate a reasonably possible loss
(or a range of loss).
Guarantees The company and its subsidiaries have certain
other contingent liabilities with respect to guarantees, direct
or indirect, of debt of affiliated companies or third parties.
Under the terms of the guarantee arrangements, generally the
company would be required to perform should the affiliated
company or third party fail to fulfill its obligations under the
arrangements. In some cases, the guarantee arrangements may have
recourse provisions that
37
would enable the company to recover any payments made under the
terms of the guarantees from assets provided as collateral.
Off-Balance-Sheet Obligations The company and its
subsidiaries have certain other contingent liabilities relating
to long-term unconditional purchase obligations and commitments,
including throughput and
take-or-pay
agreements, some of which relate to suppliers financing
arrangements. The agreements typically provide goods and
services, such as pipeline and storage capacity, drilling rigs,
utilities, and petroleum products, to be used or sold in the
ordinary course of the companys business.
Indemnifications The company provided certain indemnities
of contingent liabilities of Equilon and Motiva to Shell and
Saudi Refining, Inc., in connection with the February 2002 sale
of the companys interests in those investments. The
company would be required to perform if the indemnified
liabilities become actual losses. Were that to occur, the
company could be required to make future payments up to
$300 million. Through June 2010, the company paid
$48 million under these indemnities and continues to be
obligated for possible additional indemnification payments in
the future.
The company has also provided indemnities relating to contingent
environmental liabilities related to assets originally
contributed by Texaco to the Equilon and Motiva joint ventures
and environmental conditions that existed prior to the formation
of Equilon and Motiva or that occurred during the period of
Texacos ownership interest in the joint ventures. In
general, the environmental conditions or events that are subject
to these indemnities must have arisen prior to December 2001.
Claims had to be asserted by February 2009 for Equilon
indemnities and must be asserted no later than February 2012 for
Motiva indemnities. Under the terms of these indemnities, there
is no maximum limit on the amount of potential future payments.
In February 2009, Shell delivered a letter to the company
purporting to preserve unmatured claims for certain Equilon
indemnities. The letter itself provides no estimate of the
ultimate claim amount. Management does not believe this letter
or any other information provides a basis to estimate the
amount, if any, of a range of loss or potential range of loss
with respect to either the Equilon or the Motiva indemnities.
The company posts no assets as collateral and has made no
payments under the indemnities.
The amounts payable for the indemnities described in the
preceding paragraph are to be net of amounts recovered from
insurance carriers and others and net of liabilities recorded by
Equilon or Motiva prior to September 30, 2001, for any
applicable incident.
In the acquisition of Unocal, the company assumed certain
indemnities relating to contingent environmental liabilities
associated with assets that were sold in 1997. The acquirer of
those assets shared in certain environmental remediation costs
up to a maximum obligation of $200 million, which had been
reached at December 31, 2009. Under the indemnification
agreement, after reaching the $200 million obligation,
Chevron is solely responsible until April 2022, when the
indemnification expires. The environmental conditions or events
that are subject to these indemnities must have arisen prior to
the sale of the assets in 1997.
Although the company has provided for known obligations under
this indemnity that are probable and reasonably estimable, the
amount of additional future costs may be material to results of
operations in the period in which they are recognized. The
company does not expect these costs will have a material effect
on its consolidated financial position or liquidity.
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, including MTBE, by the company or other parties.
Such contingencies may exist for various sites, including, but
not limited to, federal Superfund sites and analogous sites
under state laws, refineries, crude oil fields, service
stations, terminals, land development areas, and mining
operations, whether operating, closed or divested. These 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 companys liability in proportion to
other responsible parties, and the extent to which such costs
are recoverable from third parties.
Although the company has provided for known environmental
obligations that are probable and reasonably estimable, the
amount of additional future costs may be material to results of
operations in the period in which they
38
are recognized. The company does not expect these costs will
have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or
liquidity. Also, the company does not believe its obligations to
make such expenditures have had, or will have, any significant
impact on the companys competitive position relative to
other U.S. or international petroleum or chemical companies.
Financial Instruments The company believes it has no
material market or credit risks to its operations, financial
position or liquidity as a result of its commodities and other
derivative activities.
Equity Redetermination For crude oil and natural gas
producing operations, ownership agreements may provide for
periodic reassessments of equity interests in estimated crude
oil and natural gas reserves. These activities, individually or
together, may result in gains or losses that could be material
to earnings in any given period. One such equity redetermination
process has been under way since 1996 for Chevrons
interests in four producing zones at the Naval Petroleum Reserve
at Elk Hills, California, for the time when the remaining
interests in these zones were owned by the U.S. Department
of Energy. A wide range remains for a possible net settlement
amount for the four zones. For this range of settlement, Chevron
estimates its maximum possible net before-tax liability at
approximately $200 million, and the possible maximum net
amount that could be owed to Chevron is estimated at about
$150 million. The timing of the settlement and the exact
amount within this range of estimates are uncertain.
Income Taxes Tax positions for Chevron and its
subsidiaries and affiliates are subject to income tax audits by
many tax jurisdictions throughout the world. For the
companys major tax jurisdictions, examinations of tax
returns for certain prior tax years had not been completed as of
June 30, 2010. For these jurisdictions, the latest years
for which income tax examinations had been finalized were as
follows: United States 2005, Nigeria
1994, Angola 2001 and Saudi Arabia 2003.
Settlement of open tax years, as well as tax issues in other
countries where the company conducts its businesses, is not
expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial
position or liquidity of the company and, in the opinion of
management, adequate provision has been made for income and
franchise taxes for all years under examination or subject to
future examination.
Other Contingencies On April 26, 2010, a California
appeals court issued a ruling related to the adequacy of an
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) supporting the issuance of
certain permits by the city of Richmond, California, to replace
and upgrade certain facilities at Chevrons refinery in
Richmond. The case has been remanded to the trial court for
entry of a final judgment consistent with the appeals
courts decision. The company is evaluating the ruling and
its options going forward, which may include requesting the city
to revise the EIR to address the issues identified by the Court
of Appeal or other actions. Management believes the outcomes
associated with the potential options for the project are
uncertain. Due to the uncertainty of the companys future
course of action, or potential outcomes of any action or
combination of actions, management does not believe an estimate
of the financial effects, if any, of the ruling can be made at
this time. However, the companys ultimate exposure may be
significant to net income in any one future period.
Chevron receives claims from and submits claims to customers;
trading partners; U.S. federal, state and local regulatory
bodies; governments; contractors; insurers; and suppliers. The
amounts of these claims, individually and in the aggregate, may
be significant and take lengthy periods to resolve.
The company and its affiliates also continue to review and
analyze their operations and may close, abandon, 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 gains or losses in future periods.
New
Accounting Standards
Transfers and Servicing (ASC 860), Accounting for Transfers
of Financial Assets (ASU
2009-16)
The FASB issued ASU
2009-16 in
December 2009. This standard became effective for the company on
January 1, 2010. ASU
2009-16
changes how companies account for transfers of financial assets
and eliminates the concept of qualifying special-purpose
entities. Adoption of the guidance did not have an effect on the
companys results of operations, financial position or
liquidity.
39
Consolidation (ASC 810), Improvements to Financial Reporting
by Enterprises Involved With Variable Interest Entities (ASU
2009-17)
The FASB issued ASU
2009-17 in
December 2009. This standard became effective for the company on
January 1, 2010. ASU
2009-17
requires the enterprise to qualitatively assess if it is the
primary beneficiary of a variable-interest entity (VIE), and, if
so, the VIE must be consolidated. Adoption of the standard did
not have an impact on the companys results of operations,
financial position or liquidity.

|
Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|
Information about market risks for the three months ended
June 30, 2010, does not differ materially from that
discussed under Item 7A of Chevrons 2009 Annual
Report on
Form 10-K.

Item 4.
|
Controls
and Procedures
|
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
The companys management has evaluated, with the
participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, the effectiveness of the companys disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in
Rule 13a-15(e)
and
15d-15(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of
the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded
that the companys disclosure controls and procedures were
effective as of June 30, 2010.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, there were no
changes in the companys internal control over financial
reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, the companys internal control
over financial reporting.

OTHER
INFORMATION

Item 1.
|
Legal
Proceedings
|
Government Proceedings Chevron has entered into
negotiations with the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) with respect to alleged air pollution violations at
the companys Perth Amboy, New Jersey refinery identified
in a September 16, 2008 Compliance Order issued by the EPA.
The alleged violations relate to certain management and
reporting requirements set forth in the EPAs Leak
Detection and Repair regulations (these regulations pertain to
the control and monitoring of fugitive emissions from refinery
process equipment). Based on recent discussions with the EPA, it
appears that the resolution of this matter will result in the
payment of a civil penalty exceeding $100,000.
Chevron is a global energy company with a diversified business
portfolio, a strong balance sheet, and a history of generating
sufficient cash to fund capital and exploratory expenditures and
to pay dividends. Nevertheless, some inherent risks could
materially impact the companys financial results of
operations or financial condition.
Information about risk factors for the three months ended
June 30, 2010, does not differ materially from that set
forth in Part I, Item 1A, of Chevrons 2009
Annual Report on
Form 10-K.

In July 2010, the company terminated the $15 billion share
repurchase program initiated in September 2007. No share
repurchases occurred in 2010 prior to the termination of this
program. From the inception of the program, the company acquired
118,996,749 shares at a cost of $10.1 billion. In its
place, the Board of Directors approved a new, ongoing share
repurchase program with no set term or monetary limits. Under
the new program, the company will acquire its common shares at
prevailing prices, as permitted by securities laws and other
legal requirements and subject to market conditions and other
factors. |
