Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) is a renowned American multinational energy corporation headquartered in San Ramon, California. As the second-largest direct descendant of Standard Oil, Chevron is a significant player in the global oil and gas industry, operating in over 180 countries. The company's core business includes the exploration, production, and refining of oil and natural gas. Chevron's production activities span North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia, with a daily output of 3.1 million barrels of oil equivalent, encompassing 7.7 million cubic feet of natural gas and 1.8 million barrels of liquids.

In addition to its traditional oil and gas ventures, Chevron is actively pursuing initiatives in renewable energy. A notable example is its partnership with Brightmark Fund Holdings LLC, forming Brightmark RNG Holdings LLC. This venture focuses on producing renewable natural gas (RNG) from dairy manure using anaerobic digestion technology. The latest project under this initiative is the Eloy Renewable Natural Gas center in Eloy, Arizona, which aims to capture methane from local dairy operations, converting it into RNG, fertilizer, and water. This circular approach not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions but also enhances agricultural and energy systems.
The project has significant environmental and economic benefits, including reducing carbon-dioxide equivalent emissions by over 900,000 tons through anaerobic digestion. It also supports the local economy by creating jobs and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
Chevron continues to innovate and adapt in the rapidly evolving energy sector. The company is committed to lowering the carbon intensity of its operations and expanding into new, lower-carbon businesses such as hydrogen, carbon capture, and other emerging technologies.
