PART I
Item 1. Business
General Development of Business
Summary Description of Chevron
Chevron Corporation,* a Delaware corporation, manages its investments in subsidiaries and affiliates and provides administrative, financial, management and technology support to U.S. and international subsidiaries that engage in integrated energy and chemicals operations. 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; transporting crude oil by major international oil export pipelines; transporting, storage and marketing of natural gas; and a gas-to-liquids plant. Downstream operations consist primarily of refining 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.
A list of the company’s major subsidiaries is presented on page E-2.E-1. As of December 31, 2017,2019, Chevron had approximately 51,90048,200 employees (including about 3,3003,500 service station employees). Approximately 25,20025,400 employees (including about 3,1003,200 service station employees), or 4953 percent, were employed in U.S. operations.
Overview of Petroleum Industry
Petroleum industry operations and profitability are influenced by many factors. Prices for crude oil, natural gas, petroleum products and petrochemicals are generally determined by supply and demand. Production levels from the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), Russia and the United States are the major factors in determining worldwide supply. Demand for crude oil and its products and for natural gas is largely driven by the conditions of local, national and global economies, although weather patterns and taxation relative to other energy sources also play a significant part. Laws and governmental policies, particularly in the areas of taxation, energy and the environment, affect where and how companies invest, conduct their operations and formulate their products and, in some cases, limit their profits directly.
Strong competition exists in all sectors of the petroleum and petrochemical industries in supplying the energy, fuel and chemical needs of industry and individual consumers. In the upstream business, Chevron competes with fully integrated, major global petroleum companies, as well as independent and national petroleum companies, for the acquisition of crude oil and natural gas leases and other properties and for the equipment and labor required to develop and operate those properties. In its downstream business, Chevron competes with fully integrated, major petroleum companies, as well as independent refining and marketing, transportation and chemicals entities and national petroleum companies in the refining, manufacturing, sale or acquisitionand marketing of various goods or services in many nationalfuels, lubricants, additives and international markets.petrochemicals.

Production Outlook
The company estimates its average worldwide oil-equivalent production in 20182020 will grow 4up to 73 percent compared to 2017,2019, assuming a Brent crude oil price of $60 per barrel and excluding the impact of anticipated 20182020 asset sales. This estimate is subject to many factors and uncertainties, as described beginning on page 32.30. Refer to the “Review of Ongoing Exploration and Production Activities in Key Areas,” beginning on page 8, for a discussion of the company’s major crude oil and natural gas development projects.
Average Sales Prices and Production Costs per Unit of Production
Refer to Table IV on page 9495 for the company’s average sales price per barrel of liquids (including crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquidsliquids) and per thousand cubic feet of natural gas produced, and the average production cost per oil-equivalent barrel for 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015.2017.

Delivery Commitments
The company sells crude oil and natural gas from its producing operations under a variety of contractual obligations. Most contracts generally commit the company to sell quantities based on production from specified properties, but some natural gas sales contracts specify delivery of fixed and determinable quantities, as discussed below.
In the United States, the company is contractually committed to deliver 151951 billion cubic feet of natural gas to third parties from 20182020 through 2020.2022. The company believes it can satisfy these contracts through a combination of equity production from the company’s proved developed U.S. reserves and third-party purchases. These commitments are allprimarily based on contracts with indexed pricing terms.
Outside the United States, the company is contractually committed to deliver a total of 2,3802,377 billion cubic feet of natural gas to third parties from 20182020 through 20202022 from operations in Australia, Colombia, Denmark, Indonesia and the Philippines. These sales contracts contain variable pricing formulas that are generally referenced to the prevailing market price for crude oil, natural gas or other petroleum products at the time of delivery. The company believes it can satisfy these contracts from quantities available from production of the company’s proved developed reserves in these countries.
Development Activities
Refer to Table I on page 9192 for details associated with the company’s development expenditures and costs of proved property acquisitions for 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015.2017.
The following table summarizes the company’s net interest in productive and dry development wells completed in each of the past three years, and the status of the company’s development wells drilling at December 31, 2017.2019. A “development well” is a well drilled within the known area of a crude oil or natural gas reservoir to the depth of a stratigraphic horizon known to be productive.

Review of Ongoing Exploration and Production Activities in Key Areas
Chevron has exploration and production activities in mostmany of the world'sworld’s major hydrocarbon basins. Chevron’s 20172019 key upstream activities, some of which are also discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, beginning on page 34,32, are presented below. The comments include references to “total production” and “net production,” which are defined under “Production” in Exhibit 99.1 on page E-8.E-7.
The discussion that follows references the status of proved reserves recognition for significant long-lead-time projects not on production as well as for projects recently placed on production. Reserves are not discussed for exploration activities or recent discoveries that have not advanced to a project stage, or for mature areas of production that do not have individual projects requiring significant levels of capital or exploratory investment. Amounts indicated for project costs represent total project costs, not the company’s share of costs for projects that are less than wholly owned.
United States
Upstream activities in the United States are primarily located in the midcontinent region, the Gulf of Mexico, California and the Appalachian Basin. Net daily oil-equivalent production in the United States during 20172019 averaged 681,000 barrels per day.929,000 barrels.
The company'scompany’s activities in the midcontinent region are primarily in Colorado, New Mexico and Texas. During 2017,2019, net daily production in these areas averaged 134,000259,000 barrels of crude oil, 505835 million cubic feet of natural gas and 50,000120,000 barrels of natural gas liquids (NGLs). In 2017, the company divested properties in areas including Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas. The company is pursuing selected opportunities and actively transacting to create value.
In the Permian Basin of West Texas and southeast New Mexico, the company holds approximately 500,000 and 1,200,000 net acres of shale and tight resources in the Midland and Delaware basins, respectively. This acreage includes multiple stacked formations that enable production from several layers of rock in different geologic zones. The stacked plays multiply the basin’s resource and economic potential by allowing for multiple horizontal wells to be developed from a single pad location using shared facilities and infrastructure, which reduces development costs and improves capital efficiency. Chevron has implemented a factory development strategy in the basin, which utilizes multiwell pads to drill a series of horizontal wells that are completed concurrently using hydraulic fracture stimulation. In 2017, the company deployed a new basis of design, resulting in improved economics. The company is also applying data analytics and petrophysical technology on its Permian well information to drive improvements in identifying well targets, in drilling and completions and in production performance. In 2019, the company’s net daily production in the basin averaged 244,000 barrels of crude oil, 735 million cubic feet of natural gas and 115,000 barrels of NGLs.

Chevron'sIn 2019, Chevron continued its involvement in the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative (OGCI), a global collaboration focused on the industry’s efforts to take actions to accelerate and participate in the energy transition. OGCI members seek to lower carbon footprints of energy, industry, and transportation value chains. This includes work to reduce methane emissions, reduce the carbon intensity of upstream oil and gas emissions, and facilitate large-scale commercial investment in carbon capture, use and storage. OGCI Climate Investments is a $1 billion-plus investment fund set up by the OGCI member companies. OGCI Climate Investments focuses on three objectives: reducing methane emissions during the production, delivery and usage of oil and gas; reducing carbon dioxide emissions by increasing energy efficiency in power, industry and transport; and recycling and storing carbon dioxide produced during power generation or industrial processes by using it in products or storing it. As a member of OGCI, Chevron has committed to contribute $100 million to this fund.

Our investments and partnerships have focused on areas such as alternative energy and emerging technologies, transportation and infrastructure, capturing and reducing emissions, and energy storage.
Some of the investments the company makes in the areas described above are in new or unproven technologies and business processes, and ultimate technical or commercial successes are not certain. Refer to Note 27 beginning25 on page 89 for a summary of the company'scompany’s research and development expenses.
Environmental ProtectionThe company designs, operates and maintains its facilities to avoid potential spills or leaks and to minimize the impact of those that may occur. Chevron requires its facilities and operations to have operating standards and processes and emergency response plans that address all credible and significant risks identified through site-specific risk and impact assessments. Chevron also requires that sufficient resources be available to execute these plans. In the unlikely event that a major spill or leak occurs, Chevron also maintains a Worldwide Emergency Response Team comprised of employees who are trained in various aspects of emergency response, including post-incident remediation.
To complement the company’s capabilities, Chevron maintains active membership in international oil spill response cooperatives, including the Marine Spill Response Corporation, which operates in U.S. territorial waters, and Oil Spill Response, Ltd., which operates globally. The company is a founding member of the Marine Well Containment Company, whose primary mission is to expediently deploy containment equipment and systems to capture and contain crude oil in the unlikely event of a future loss of control of a deepwater well in the Gulf of Mexico. In addition, the company is a member of
the Subsea Well Response Project, which has the objective to further develop the industry’s capability to contain and shut in subsea well control incidents in different regions of the world.
The company is committed to improving energy efficiency in its day-to-day operations and is required to comply with the greenhouse gas-related laws and regulations to which it is subject. Refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors on pages 1918 through 2221 for further discussion of greenhouse gas regulation and climate change and the associated risks to Chevron’s business.
Refer to Management'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on page 4544 for additional information on environmental matters and their impact on Chevron, and on the company's 2017company’s 2019 environmental expenditures.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Chevron is a global energy company and its operating and financial results are subject to a variety of risks inherent in the global oil, gas, and petrochemical businesses. Many of these risks are not within the company'scompany’s control and could materially impact the company’s results of operations and financial condition.
Chevron is exposed to the effects of changing commodity pricesChevron is primarily in a commodities business that has a history of price volatility. The single largest variable that affects the company’s results of operations is the price of crude oil, which can be influenced by general economic conditions, industry production and inventory levels, technology advancements, production quotas or other actions that might be imposed by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) or other producers, weather-related damage and disruptions due to other natural or human causes beyond our control, competing fuel prices, and geopolitical risks. Chevron evaluates the risk of changing commodity prices as a core part of its business planning process. An investment in the company carries significant exposure to fluctuations in global crude oil prices.
Extended periods of low prices for crude oil can have a material adverse impact on the company'scompany’s results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. Among other things, the company’s upstream earnings, cash flows, and capital and exploratory expenditure programs could be negatively affected, as could its production and proved reserves. Upstream assets may also become impaired. Downstream earnings could be negatively affected because they depend upon the supply and demand for refined products and the associated margins on refined product sales. A significant or sustained decline in liquidity could adversely affect the company’s credit ratings, potentially increase financing costs and reduce access to debtcapital markets. The company may be unable to realize anticipated cost savings, expenditure reductions and asset sales that are intended to compensate for such downturns. In some cases, liabilities associated with divested assets may return to the company when an acquirer of those assets subsequently declares bankruptcy. In addition, extended periods of low commodity prices can have a material adverse impact on the results of operations, financial condition and liquidity of the company’s suppliers, vendors, partners and equity affiliates upon which the company’s own results of operations and financial condition depends.
The scope of Chevron’s business will decline if the company does not successfully develop resourcesThe company is in an extractive business; therefore, if it is not successful in replacing the crude oil and natural gas it produces with good prospects for future organic opportunities or through acquisitions, the company’s business will decline. Creating and maintaining an inventory of projects depends on many factors, including obtaining and renewing rights to explore, develop and produce hydrocarbons; drilling success; reservoir optimization; ability to bring long-lead-time, capital-intensive projects to completion on budget and on schedule; and efficient and profitable operation of mature properties.
The company’s operations could be disrupted by natural or human causes beyond its control Chevron operates in both urban areas and remote and sometimes inhospitable regions. The company’s operations are therefore subject to disruption from natural or human causes beyond its control, including physical risks from hurricanes, severe storms, floods and other
forms of severe weather, war, accidents, civil unrest, political events, fires, earthquakes, system failures, cyber threats, and terrorist acts and epidemic or pandemic diseases such as the coronavirus, any of which could result in suspension of operations or harm to people or the natural environment.
Chevron'sChevron’s risk management systems are designed to assess potential physical and other risks to its operations and assets and to plan for their resiliency. While capital investment reviews and decisions incorporate potential ranges of physical risks such as storm severity and frequency, sea level rise, air and water temperature, precipitation, fresh water access, wind speed, and earthquake severity, among other factors, it is difficult to predict with certainty the timing, frequency or severity of such events, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the company's results of operations or financial condition.
Cyberattacks targeting Chevron’s process control networks or other digital infrastructure could have a material adverse impact on the company’s business and results of operations There are numerous and evolving risks to Chevron’s cybersecurity and privacy from cyber threat actors, including criminal hackers, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage and employee malfeasance. These cyber threat actors, whether internal or external to Chevron, are becoming more sophisticated and coordinated in their attempts to access the company’s information technology (IT) systems and data, including the IT systems of cloud providers and other third parties with whichwhom the company conducts business. Although Chevron devotes significant resources to prevent unwanted intrusions and to protect its systems and data, whether such data is housed internally or by external third parties, the company has experienced and will continue to experience cyber incidents of varying degrees in the conduct of its business. Cyber threat actors could compromise the company’s process control networks or other critical systems and infrastructure, resulting in disruptions to its business operations, injury to people, harm to the environment or its assets, disruptions in access to its financial reporting systems, or loss, misuse or corruption of its critical data and proprietary information, including without limitation its intellectual property and business information and that of its employees, customers, partners and other third parties. Any of the foregoing can be exacerbated by a delay or failure to detect a cyber incident. Further, the company has exposure to cyber incidents and the negative impacts of such incidents related to its critical data and proprietary information housed on third-party IT systems, including the cloud. Additionally, authorized third-party IT systems can be compromised and used to gain access or introduce malware to Chevron's IT systems during the normal course of business. The company has limited control and visibility over such third-party IT systems. Cyber events could result in significant financial losses, legal or regulatory violations, reputational harm, and legal liability and could ultimately have a material adverse effect on the company’s business and results of operations.
The company’s operations have inherent risks and hazards that require significant and continuous oversight Chevron’s results depend on its ability to identify and mitigate the risks and hazards inherent to operating in the crude oil and natural gas industry. The company seeks to minimize these operational risks by carefully designing and building its facilities and conducting its operations in a safe and reliable manner. However, failure to manage these risks effectively could impair our ability to operate and result in unexpected incidents, including releases, explosions or mechanical failures resulting in personal injury, loss of life, environmental damage, loss of revenues, legal liability and/or disruption to operations. Chevron has implemented and maintains a system of corporate policies, processes and systems, behaviors and compliance mechanisms to manage safety, health, environmental, reliability and efficiency risks; to verify compliance with applicable laws and policies; and to respond to and learn from unexpected incidents. In certain situations where Chevron is not the operator, the company may have limited influence and control over third parties, which may limit its ability to manage and control such risks.
Chevron’s business subjects the company to liability risks from litigation or government action The company produces, transports, refines and markets potentially hazardous materials, and it purchases, handles and disposes of other potentially hazardous materials in the course of its business. Chevron's operations also produce byproducts, which may be considered pollutants. Often these operations are conducted through joint ventures over which the company may have limited influence and control. Any of these activities could result in liability or significant delays in operations arising from private litigation or government action, either as aaction. For example, liability or delays could result offrom an accidental, unlawful discharge or as a result offrom new conclusions about the effects of the company’s operations on human health or the environment. In addition, to the extent that societal pressures or political or other factors are involved, it is possible that such liability could be imposed without regard to the company’s causation of or contribution to the asserted damage, or to other mitigating factors.
For information concerning some of the litigation in which the company is involved, see Note 1714 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, beginning on page 71.72.
The company does not insure against all potential losses, which could result in significant financial exposure The company does not have commercial insurance or third-party indemnities to fully cover all operational risks or potential liability in the event of a significant incident or series of incidents causing catastrophic loss. As a result, the company is, to a substantial extent, self-insured for such events. The company relies on existing liquidity, financial resources and borrowing capacity to meet short-term obligations that would arise from such an event or series of events. The occurrence of a significant incident or unforeseen liability for which the company is self-insured, not fully insured or for which insurance recovery is significantly delayed could have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations or financial condition.
Political instability and significant changes in the legal and regulatory environment could harm Chevron’s business The company’s operations, particularly exploration and production, can be affected by changing economic, regulatory and political environments in the various countries in which it operates. As has occurred in the past, actions could be taken by governments to increase public ownership of the company’s partially or wholly owned businesses, to force contract renegotiations, or to impose additional taxes or royalties. In certain locations, governments have proposed or imposed
restrictions on the company’s operations, export andtrade, currency exchange controls, burdensome taxes, and public disclosure requirements that might harm the company’s competitiveness or relations with other governments or third parties. In other countries, political conditions have existed that may threaten the safety of employees and the company’s continued presence in those countries, and internal unrest, acts of violence or strained relations between a government and the company or other governments may adversely affect the company’s operations. Those developments have, at times, significantly affected the company’s operations and results and are carefully considered by management when evaluating the level of current and future activity in such countries. Further, Chevron is required to comply with U.S. sanctions and other trade laws and regulations which, depending upon their scope, could adversely impact the company's operations in certain countries. For example, with respect to our operations in Venezuela as discussed in Note 22 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Other Contingencies and Commitments - Other Contingencies,” future events could result in the environment in Venezuela becoming more challenged, which could lead to increased business disruption and volatility in the associated financial results. In addition, litigation or changes in national, state or local environmental regulations or laws, including those designed to stop or impede the development or production of oil and gas, such as those related to the use of hydraulic fracturing or bans on drilling, could adversely affect the company'scompany’s current or anticipated future operations and profitability.
Regulation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has increased and could continue to increase Chevron’s operational costs and reduce demand for Chevron’s hydrocarbon and other productsIn the years ahead, companies in the energy industry, like Chevron, may be challenged by ana further increase in international and domestic regulation relating to GHG emissions. Like any significant changes in the regulatory environment, GHG regulation could have the impact of curtailing profitability in the oil and gas sector or rendering the extraction of the company’s oil and gas resources economically infeasible. Although the IEA’s World Energy Outlook scenarios anticipate oil and gas continuing to make up a significant portion of the global energy mix through 2040 and beyond given their respective advantages in transportation and power generation, if a new onset of regulation contributes to a decline in the demand for the company’s products, this could have a material adverse effect on the company and its financial condition.
International agreements and national, regional and state legislation (e.g., California AB32, SB32 and AB398) and regulatory measures that aim to limit or reduce GHG emissions are currently in various stages of implementation. For example, the Paris Agreement went into effect in November 2016, and a number of countries are studying and adoptingmay adopt additional policies to meet their Paris Agreement goals. In some jurisdictions, the company is already subject to currently implemented programs such as the U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard program, the European Union Emissions Trading System, and the California cap-and-trade program and related low carbon fuel standard obligations. Other jurisdictions are considering adopting or are in the process of implementing laws or regulations to directly regulate GHG emissions through similar or other mechanisms such as, for example, via a carbon tax (e.g., Singapore and Canada) or via a cap-and-trade program (e.g., California, Mexico and China). The landscape continues to be in a state of constant re-assessment and legal challenge with respect to these laws and regulations, making it difficult to predict with certainty the ultimate impact they will have on the company in the aggregate.
GHG emissions-related laws and related regulations and the effects of operating in a potentially carbon-constrained environment may result in increased and substantial capital, compliance, operating and maintenance costs and could, among other things, reduce demand for hydrocarbons and the company’s hydrocarbon-based products, make the company’s products more expensive, adversely affect the economic feasibility of the company’s resources, and adversely affect the company’s sales volumes, revenues and margins. GHG emissions (e.g., carbon dioxide and methane) that could be regulated include, among others, those associated with the company’s exploration and production of hydrocarbons such as crude oil and natural gas; the upgrading of production from oil sands into synthetic oil; power generation; the conversion of crude oil and natural gas into refined hydrocarbon products; the processing, liquefaction and regasification of natural gas; the transportation of crude oil, natural gas and related products and consumers’ or customers’ use of the company’s hydrocarbon products. Many of these activities, such as consumers’ and customers’ use of the company’s products and substitute products, as well as actions taken by the company’s competitors in response to such laws and regulations, are beyond the company’s control. In addition, increasing attention to climate change risks has resulted in an increased possibility of governmental investigations and additional private litigation against the company.
Consideration of GHG issues and the responses to those issues through international agreements and national, regional or state legislation or regulations are integrated into the company’s strategy and planning, capital investment reviews, and risk management tools and processes, where applicable. They are also factored into the company’s long-range supply, demand and energy price forecasts. These forecasts reflect long-range effects from renewable fuel penetration, energy efficiency standards, climate-related policy actions, and demand response to oil and natural gas prices. Additionally, the company assesses carbon pricing risks by considering carbon costs in these forecasts. The actual level of expenditure required to comply with new or potential climate change-related laws and regulations and amount of additional investments in new or
existing technology or facilities, such as carbon dioxide injection, is difficult to predict with certainty and is expected to vary depending on the actual laws and regulations enacted in a jurisdiction, the company’s activities in it and market conditions.
The ultimate effect of international agreements and national, regional and state legislation and regulatory measures to limit GHG emissions on the company’s financial performance, and the timing of these effects, will depend on a number of factors. Such factors include, among others, the sectors covered, the greenhouse gasGHG emissions reductions required, the extent to which Chevron would be entitled to receive emission allowance allocations or would need to purchase compliance instruments on the open market or through auctions, the price and availability of emission allowances and credits, and the extent to which the company is able to recover the costs incurred through the pricing of the company’s products in the competitive marketplace. Further, the ultimate impact of GHG emissions-related agreements, legislation and measures on the company’s financial performance is highly uncertain because the company is unable to predict with certainty, for a multitude of individual jurisdictions, the outcome of political decision-making processes and the variables and tradeoffs that inevitably occur in connection with such processes.
Increasing attention to environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters may impact our business Increasing attention to climate change, increasing societal expectations on companies to address climate change, and potential consumer and customer use of substitutes to Chevron’s products may result in increased costs, reduced demand for our products, reduced profits, increased investigations and litigation, and negative impacts on our stock price and access to capital markets. Increasing attention to climate change, for example, may result in demand shifts for our hydrocarbon products and additional governmental investigations and private litigation against the company.
In addition, organizations that provide information to investors on corporate governance and related matters have developed ratings processes for evaluating companies on their approach to ESG matters. Such ratings are used by some investors to inform their investment and voting decisions. Unfavorable ESG ratings may lead to increased negative investor sentiment toward Chevron and our industry and to the diversion of investment to other industries, which could have a negative impact on our stock price and our access to and costs of capital.
Changes in management’s estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements and financial or operational performance in any given periodIn preparing the company’s periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including its financial statements, Chevron’s management is required under applicable rules and regulations to make estimates and assumptions as of a specified date. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and experience as of that date and are subject to substantial risk and uncertainty. Materially different results may occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes known. Areas requiring significant estimates and assumptions by management include impairments to property, plant and equipment; estimates of crude oil and natural gas recoverable reserves; accruals for estimated liabilities, including litigation reserves; and measurement of benefit obligations for pension and other postretirement benefit plans. Changes in estimates or assumptions or the information underlying the assumptions, such as changes in the company’s business plans, general market conditions or changes in commodity prices, could affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities or expenses.

Business Environment and Outlook
Chevron is a global energy company with substantial business activities in the following countries: Angola, Argentina, Australia, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Denmark, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Myanmar, Mexico, Nigeria, the Partitioned Zone between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, the Philippines, Republic of Congo, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Thailand, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Venezuela.
Earnings of the company depend mostly on the profitability of its upstream business segment. The biggestmost significant factor affecting the results of operations for the upstream segment is the price of crude oil. The price of crude oil, has fallen significantly since mid-year 2014. The downturnwhich is determined in the price of crude oil has impacted the company's results of operations, cash flows, leverage, capital and exploratory investment program and production outlook. A sustained lower price environment could result in the impairment or write-off of specific assets in future periods. The company has responded with reductions in operating expenses, pacing and re-focusing of capital and exploratory expenditures, and increased asset sales. The company anticipates that crude oil prices will increase in the future, as continued growth in demand and a slowing in supply growth should bring global markets into balance; however,outside of the timing of any such increase is unknown.company’s control. In the company'scompany’s downstream business, crude oil is the largest cost component of refined products. It is the company'scompany’s objective to deliver competitive results and shareholderstockholder value in any business environment. Periods of sustained lower prices could result in the impairment or write-off of specific assets in future periods and cause the company to adjust operating expenses and capital and exploratory expenditures, along with other measures intended to improve financial performance. Similarly, impairments or write-offs may occur as a result of managerial decisions not to progress certain projects in the company's portfolio.
The effective tax rate for the company can change substantially during periods of significant earnings volatility. This is due to the mix effects that are impacted both by the absolute level of earnings or losses and whether they arise in higher or lower tax rate jurisdictions. As a result, a decline or increase in the effective income tax rate in one period may not be indicative of expected results in future periods. Note 1815 provides the company’s effective income tax rate for the last three years.

The company closely monitors developments in the financial and credit markets, the level of worldwide economic activity, and the implications for 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.
Comments related to earnings trends for the company’s major business areas are as follows:
UpstreamEarnings for the upstream segment are closely aligned with industry prices 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 production and inventory levels, technology advancements, production quotas or other actions imposed by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) or other producers, actions of regulators, 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. Any of these factors could also inhibit the company’s production capacity in an affected region. The company closely monitors developments in the countries in which it operates and holds investments, and seeks to manage risks in operating its facilities and businesses. The longer-term trend in earnings for the upstream segment is also a function of other factors, including the company’s ability to find or acquire and efficiently produce crude oil and natural gas, changes in fiscal terms of contracts, and changes in tax and other applicable laws and regulations.
The company continues to actively manage its schedule of work, contracting, procurement, and supply-chain activities to effectively manage costs. However, pricecosts and support operational goals. Price levels for capital, and exploratory costs, and operating expenses associated with the production of crude oil and natural gas can be subject to external factors beyond the company’s control including, among other things,but not limited to: the general level of inflation, commodity pricestariffs or other taxes imposed on goods or services, and commoditized prices charged by the industry’s material and service providers, which can be affected by the volatility of the industry’s own supply-and-demand conditionsproviders. The spot markets for suchmany services and materials and services. Industry cost inflationfell as overall industry drilling activity in most onshore segments, including North America unconventionals, starteddeclined in 2019, particularly onshore. However, as industry activity contracts, financial pressure on suppliers has increased, which may limit further de-escalation and/or lead to modestly riseconsolidation across the supplier community impacting costs. The international and offshore rig markets are also showing some signs of weaknesses as activity has pulled back; however, pricing for some products and services remains resilient as many suppliers have reset expectations of higher industry spend and instead are looking to higher pricing and margins on a more limited scope of work. Chevron utilizes contracts with various pricing mechanisms, so there may be a delay in 2017 with increaseswhen the company’s costs reflect the changes in commodity prices and higher levels of activity and investment. Offshore costs continue to decline driven by lower offshore activity levels and increased competition among suppliers. market trends.
Capital and exploratory expenditures and operating expenses could also be affected by damage to production facilities caused by severe weather or civil unrest, delays in construction, or other factors.
The chart above shows the trend in benchmark prices for Brent crude oil, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil and U.S. Henry Hub natural gas. The Brent price averaged $54 per barrel for the full-year 2017, compared to $44 in 2016. As of mid-February 2018, the Brent price was $62 per barrel. The majority of the company’s equity crude production is priced based on the Brent benchmark. Crude oilThe Brent price averaged $64 per barrel for the full-year 2019, compared to $71 in 2018. Brent prices were better supported in 2017 amid firming demand, rising geopolitical tensions, and ongoing output reductions by OPEC and certain non-OPEC producers. However, upside was limited as rebounding U.S. and other non-OPEC production resulted in ongoing oversupplied conditions. Prices weakened gradually overincreased through the first half of 20172019 due to OPEC production cuts and U.S. sanctions on Iran and Venezuela. Prices then started to decline due to heightened concerns that OPEC cuts would be allowed to expire in June 2017, but firmed overabout a slowing macro economy and weakening oil demand growth amid trade tensions between the

OPEC announced additional production cuts in December 2019, leading toa price increase with Brent prices at $67 at the end of 2017 after OPEC’s decision on May 25, 2017,the year. As of mid-February 2020, the Brent price was $57 per barrel, having declined more than 10 percent since December 2019, primarily due to extend cuts throughconcerns about demand erosion following the first quarter of 2018. Price support was reinforced on November 30, 2017, when OPEC and their non-OPEC partners agreed to further extend output cuts through December 2018.coronavirus outbreak.
The WTI price averaged $51$57 per barrel for the full-year 2017,2019, compared to $43$65 in 2016. As of mid-February 2018, the WTI price was $59 per barrel.2018. WTI traded at a discount to Brent throughout 2017. After starting 2017 at a $2 discount2019. Differentials to Brent the WTI discount expandedhave ranged between $4 to about $6 by year-end$10 in 2019, primarily due to rising U.S. crude production, rebounding inventories, and growing concerns that pipeline infrastructure constraints would again restrictwhich have restricted flows of inland crude to export outlets on the Gulf Coast. Variability in other factors impacting supply and demand of each benchmark crude also affect price differential. As of mid-February 2020, the WTI price was $52 per barrel.
A differential in crude oil prices exists between high-gravity, low-sulfur crudes and low-gravity, high-sulfur crudes. The amount of the differential in any period is associated with the relative supply/demand balances for each crude type. In second-half 2017, the differential held generally steady in North America as robust refinery demand supported heavy crude values, while light sweet crude pricesChevron has interests in the U.S. were supported by rising exportsproduction of domestic production. Outside of North America, differentials were steady to modestly wider amid well-supplied light sweet crude markets in the Atlantic Basin, while rising U.S. exports to Asia increased competitive pressure on Middle East exports to the region. Chevron has producing interests in heavy crude oil in California, 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.China. (See page 3937 for the company’s average U.S. and international crude oil realizations.sales prices.)
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 seasonal supply-and-demand and infrastructure conditions in thoselocal markets. Fluctuations in the price of natural gas in the United States are closely associated with customer demand relative to the volumes produced and stored in North America. In the United States, prices at Henry Hub averaged $2.97$2.53 per thousand cubic feet (MCF) during 2017,2019, compared with $2.46$3.12 during 2016.2018. As of mid-February 2018,2020, the Henry Hub spot price was $2.57$1.84 per MCF. Increased production in the Permian Basin has resulted in insufficient gas pipeline and fractionation capacity in the near-term, and over-supply conditions, leading to depressed natural gas and natural gas liquids prices in West Texas. A sizable portion of Chevron’s U.S. natural gas production comes from the Permian Basin, resulting in natural gas realizations that are significantly lower than the Henry Hub price.
Outside the United States, price changes for natural gas depend on a wide range of supply, demand and regulatory circumstances. Chevron sells natural gas into the domestic pipeline market in mostmany locations. In some locations, Chevron has invested in long-term projects to produce and liquefy natural gas for transport by tanker to other markets. The company'scompany’s long-term contract prices for liquefied natural gas (LNG) are typically linked to crude oil prices. Most of the equity LNG offtake from the operated Australian LNG projects is committed under binding long-term contracts, with the remainder to be sold in the Asian spot LNG market. The Asian spot market reflects the supply and demand for LNG in the Pacific Basin and is not directly linked to crude oil prices. International natural gas realizations averaged $4.62$5.83 per MCF during 2017,2019, compared with $4.02$6.29 per MCF during 2016.2018. (See page 3937 for the company’s average natural gas realizations for the U.S. and international regions.)
The company’s worldwide net oil-equivalent production in 20172019 averaged 2.7283.058 million barrels per day. About one-sixth15 percent of the company’s net oil-equivalent production in 20172019 occurred in the OPEC-member countries of Angola, Nigeria, Republic of Congo and Venezuela. OPEC quotas had no material effect on the company’s net crude oil production in 20172019 or 2016.2018.
The company estimates that net oil-equivalent production in 20182020 will grow 4up to 73 percent compared to 2017,2019, assuming a Brent crude oil price of $60 per barrel and excluding the impact of anticipated 20182020 asset sales. This estimate is subject to many factors and uncertainties, including quotas or other actions that may be imposed by OPEC; tariffs and trade sanctions; price effects on entitlement volumes; changes in fiscal terms or restrictions on the scope of company operations; delays in construction,construction; reservoir performance; greater-than-expected declines in production from mature fields; start-up or ramp-up of projects; 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.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The company has increased its investment emphasis on short-cycle projects. In the Partitioned Zone between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, production was shut-in beginning in May 2015 as a result of difficulties in securing work and equipment permits. Net oil-equivalent production in the Partitioned Zone in 2014 was 81,000 barrels per day. During 2015, net oil-equivalent production averaged 28,000 barrels per day. AsIn December 2019, the governments of early 2018, production remains shut in and the exact timing of a production restart is uncertain and dependent on dispute resolution between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.Kuwait signed a memorandum of understanding to resolve the dispute and allow production to restart in the Partitioned Zone. In mid-February 2020, pre-startup activities commenced. The financial effects from the loss of production in 20172019 were not significant and are not expected to be significant in 2018.2020.
Chevron has interests in Venezuelan crude oil production assets operated by independent equity affiliates. While the operating environment in Venezuela has been deteriorating for some time, the equity affiliates have continued to operate consistent with the authorization provided pursuant to general licenses issued by the United States government. It remains uncertain when the environment in Venezuela will stabilize, but the company remains committed to its personnel and operations in

Venezuela. Refer to Note 22 on page 88 under the heading “Other Contingencies” for more information on the company’s activities in Venezuela.
Net proved reserves for consolidated companies and affiliated companies totaled 11.711.4 billion barrels of oil-equivalent at year-end 2017, an increase2019, a decrease of 5 percent from year-end 2016.2018. The reserve replacement ratio in 20172019 was 15544 percent. The 5 and 10 year reserve replacement ratios were 106 percent and 101 percent, respectively.

Refer to the “Results of Operations” section on pages 3432 through 3734 for additional discussion of the company’s 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 crude oil, other refinery and petrochemical feedstocks, and natural gas. Industry margins can also be influenced by inventory levels, geopolitical events, costs 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 company’s refining, marketing and petrochemical assets, the effectiveness of its crude oil and product supply functions, and the volatility of tanker-charter rates for the company’s shipping operations, which are driven by the industry’s demand for crude oil and product tankers. Other factors beyond the company’s control include the general level of inflation and energy costs to operate the company’s refining, marketing and petrochemical assets.assets and changes in tax laws and regulations.
The company’s most significant marketing areas are the West Coast and Gulf Coast of the United States Asia and southern Africa.Asia. Chevron operates or has significant ownership interests in refineries in each of these areas.

The decline in income tax benefit in 2017 of $1.68 billion is due to the increase in total income before tax for the company of $11.38 billion and the remeasurement impacts of U.S. tax reform. U.S. losses before tax decreased from a loss of $4.32$15.84 billion in 20162018 to a loss of $441 million$11.02 billion in 2017.2019. This decrease in losses before tax was primarily driven by the effecteffects of higherupstream project write-off and impairment charges and lower crude oil prices. The U.S. tax benefit increasedand natural gas prices, partially offset by $650 million between year-over-year periods from $2.32 billion in 2016 to $2.97 billion in 2017. The U.S. tax benefit for 2017 included a $2.02 billion benefit from U.S. tax reform, which primarily reflected the remeasurement of U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities, and a reduction of $1.37 billion as result of the impact of a decrease in losses before tax of $3.88 billion. International income before tax increased from $2.16 billion in 2016 to $9.66 billion in 2017. This $7.50 billion increase was primarily driven by the effect of higher crude oil prices and gains on asset sales primarily in Indonesia and Canada.sales. The higher crude priceslower before-tax income primarily drove the $2.34$1.13 billion increasedecrease in international income tax expense, between year-over-year periods, from $588 million in 2016 to $2.93$4.99 billion in 2017. 2018 to $3.86 billion in 2019.
Refer also to the discussion of the effective income tax rate in Note 1815 beginning on page 75.74.
The decline in income tax expense in 2016 of $1.86 billion is consistent with the decline in total income before tax for the company of $7.00 billion. U.S. losses before tax increased from a loss of $2.88 billion in 2015 to a loss of $4.32 billion in 2016. This $1.44 billion increase in losses was primarily driven by the effect of lower crude oil prices. The increase in losses had a direct impact on the company’s U.S. income tax benefit, resulting in an increase of $624 million between year-over-year periods, from a tax benefit of $1.69 billion in 2015 to a tax benefit of $2.32 billion in 2016. International income before tax was reduced between calendar years from $7.72 billion in 2015 to $2.16 billion in 2016. This $5.56 billion decline was also primarily driven by the effect of lower crude oil prices. This effect drove the $1.24 billion reduction in international income tax expense between year-over-year periods, from $1.83 billion in 2015 to $588 million in 2016. Refer also to the discussion of the effective income tax rate in Note 18 on page 75.

Cash flow from operations increased $7.7 billion in 2017 primarily due to higher crude oil prices. The company also continued to reduce cash outlays and increase asset sales. Progress on these actions during 2017 included:
Reducing cash capital expenditures to $13.4 billion, a 26 percent decrease compared to 2016,
Reducing operating and administrative expenses by $1.1 billion, a 4 percent decrease compared to 2016, and
Realizing net proceeds from asset sales of $5.2 billion during 2017.
The strength of the company’s balance sheet enabled it to fund any timing differences throughout the year between cash inflows and outflows.

Of these amounts, $10.0$9.75 billion and $9.0$9.9 billion were reclassified to long-term debt at the end of 20172019 and 2016,2018, respectively.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
At year-end 2017,2019, settlement of these obligations was not expected to require the use of working capital in 2018,2020, as the company had the intent and the ability, as evidenced by committed credit facilities, to refinance them on a long-term basis.

Based on its high-quality debt ratings, the company believes that it has substantial borrowing capacity to meet unanticipated cash requirements. During extended periods of low prices for crude oil and natural gas and narrow margins for refined products and commodity chemicals, the company can also modify capital spending plans and discontinue or curtail the stock repurchase program to provide flexibility to continue paying the common stock dividend and also remain committed to retaining the company’s high-quality debt ratings.

Financial and Derivative Instrument Market Risk
The market risk associated with the company’s portfolio of financial and derivative instruments is discussed below. The estimates of financial exposure to market risk do not represent the company’s projection of future market changes. The actual impact of future market changes could differ materially due to factors discussed elsewhere in this report, including those set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of the company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K.1A.
Derivative Commodity Instruments Chevron is exposed to market risks related to the price volatility of crude oil, refined products, natural gas, natural gas liquids, liquefied natural gas and refinery feedstocks. The company uses derivative commodity instruments to manage these exposures on a portion of its activity, including firm commitments and anticipated transactions for the purchase, sale and storage of crude oil, refined products, natural gas, natural gas liquids and feedstock for company refineries. The company also uses derivative commodity instruments for limited trading purposes. The results of these activities were not material to the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows in 2017.2019.
The company’s market exposure positions are monitored on a daily basis by an internal Risk Control group in accordance with the company’s risk management policies. The company'scompany’s risk management practices and its compliance with policies are reviewed by the Audit Committee of the company’s Board of Directors.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Derivatives beyond those designated as normal purchase and normal sale contracts are recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheet with resulting gains and losses reflected in income. Fair values are derived principally from published market quotes and other independent third-party quotes. The change in fair value of Chevron’s derivative commodity instruments in 20172019 was not material to the company'scompany’s results of operations.
The company uses the Monte Carlo simulation method as its Value-at-Risk (VaR) model to estimate the maximum potential loss in fair value, at the 95% confidence level with a one-day holding period, from the effect of adverse changes in market

conditions on derivative commodity instruments held or issued. Based on these inputs, the VaR for the company'scompany’s primary risk exposures in the area of derivative commodity instruments at December 31, 20172019 and 20162018 was not material to the company'scompany’s cash flows or results of operations.
Foreign CurrencyThe company may enter into foreign currency derivative contracts to manage some of its foreign currency exposures. These exposures include revenue and anticipated purchase transactions, including foreign currency capital expenditures and lease commitments. The foreign currency derivative contracts, if any, are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet with resulting gains and losses reflected in income. There were no open foreign currency derivative contracts at December 31, 2017.2019.
Interest RatesThe company may enter into interest rate swaps from time to time as part of its overall strategy to manage the interest rate risk on its debt. Interest rate swaps, if any, are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet with resulting gains and losses reflected in income. At year-end 2017,2019, the company had no interest rate swaps.
Transactions With Related Parties
Chevron enters into a number of business arrangements with related parties, principally its equity affiliates. These arrangements include long-term supply or offtake agreements and long-term purchase agreements. Refer to “Other Information” on page 71, in Note 16,13, Investments and Advances, for further discussion. Management believes these agreements have been negotiated on terms consistent with those that would have been negotiated with an unrelated party.

The company records asset retirement obligations when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of long-lived assets and the liability can be reasonably estimated. These asset retirement obligations include costs related to environmental issues. The liability balance of approximately $14.2$12.8 billion for asset retirement obligations at year-end 20172019 related primarily to upstream properties.
For the company’s other ongoing operating assets, such as refineries and chemicals facilities, no provisions are made for exit or cleanup costs that may be required when such assets reach the end of their useful lives unless a decision to sell or otherwise abandondecommission the facility has been made, as the indeterminate settlement dates for the asset retirements prevent estimation of the fair value of the asset retirement obligation.

Environmental Matters
The company is subject to various international, federal, state and local environmental, health and safety laws, regulations and market-based programs. These laws, regulations and programs continue to evolve and are expected to increase in both number and complexity over time and govern not only the manner in which the company conducts its operations, but also the products it sells. For example, international agreements and national, regional, and state legislation (e.g., California AB32, SB32 and AB398) and regulatory measures that aim to limit or reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are currently in various stages of implementation. Consideration of GHG issues and the responses to those issues through international agreements and national, regional or state legislation or regulations are integrated into the company’s strategy and planning, capital investment reviews and risk management tools and processes, where applicable. They are also factored into the company’s long-range supply, demand and energy price forecasts. These forecasts reflect long-range effects from renewable fuel penetration, energy efficiency standards, climate-related policy actions, and demand response to oil and natural gas prices. In addition, legislation and regulations intended to address hydraulic fracturing also continue to evolve at the national, state and local levels. Refer to “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, on pages 1918 through 2221 for a discussion of some of the inherent risks of increasingly restrictive environmental and other regulation that could materially impact the company’s results of operations or financial condition.
Most of the costs of complying with existing laws and regulations pertaining to company operations and products are embedded in the normal costs of doing business. However, it is not possible to predict with certainty the amount of additional investments in new or existing technology or facilities or the amounts of increased operating costs to be incurred in the future to: prevent, control, reduce or eliminate releases of hazardous materials or other pollutants into the environment; remediate and restore areas damaged by prior releases of hazardous materials; or comply with new environmental laws or regulations. Although these costs may be significant to the results of operations in any single period, the company does not presently expect them to have a material adverse effect on the company'scompany’s liquidity or financial position.
Accidental leaks and spills requiring cleanup may occur in the ordinary course of business. The company may incur expenses for corrective actions at various owned and previously owned facilities and at third-party-owned waste disposal sites used by the company. An obligation may arise when operations are closed or sold or at non-Chevron sites where company products have been handled or disposed of. Most of the expenditures to fulfill these obligations relate to facilities and sites where past operations followed practices and procedures that were considered acceptable at the time but now require investigative or remedial work or both to meet current standards.
Using definitions and guidelines established by the American Petroleum Institute, Chevron estimated its worldwide environmental spending in 20172019 at approximately $2.0 billion for its consolidated companies. Included in these expenditures were approximately $0.5$0.6 billion of environmental capital expenditures and $1.5$1.4 billion of costs associated with the prevention, control, abatement or elimination of hazardous substances and pollutants from operating, closed or divested sites, and the abandonmentdecommissioning and restoration of sites.
For 2018,2020, total worldwide environmental capital expenditures are estimated at $0.5$0.4 billion. These capital costs are in addition to the ongoing costs of complying with environmental regulations and the costs to remediate previously contaminated sites.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Assumptions
Management makes many estimates and assumptions in the application of accounting principles generally accepted accounting principlesin the United States of America (GAAP) that may have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and on the comparability of such information over different reporting periods. Such estimates and assumptions affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates and assumptions are based on management’s experience and other information available prior to the issuance of the financial statements. Materially different results can occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes known.
The discussion in this section of “critical” accounting estimates and assumptions is according to the disclosure guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), wherein:
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
| |
| 1. | the nature of the estimates and assumptions is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters, or the susceptibility of such matters to change; and |
| |
| 2. | the impact of the estimates and assumptions on the company’s financial condition or operating performance is material. |
The development and selection of accounting estimates and assumptions, including those deemed “critical,” and the associated disclosures in this discussion have been discussed by management with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The areas of accounting and the associated “critical” estimates and assumptions made by the company are as follows:
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Oil and Gas Reserves Crude oil and natural gas reserves are estimates of future production that impact certain asset and expense accounts included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Proved reserves are the estimated quantities of oil and gas that geoscience and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be economically producible in the future under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations. Proved reserves include both developed and undeveloped volumes. Proved developed reserves represent volumes expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Proved undeveloped reserves are volumes expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled proved acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion. Variables impacting Chevron'sChevron’s estimated volumes of crude oil and natural gas reserves include field performance, available technology, commodity prices, and development and production costs.
The estimates of crude oil and natural gas reserves are important to the timing of expense recognition for costs incurred and to the valuation of certain oil and gas producing assets. Impacts of oil and gas reserves on Chevron'sChevron’s Consolidated Financial Statements, using the successful efforts method of accounting, include the following:
| |
| 1. | Amortization - Capitalized exploratory drilling and development costs are depreciated on a unit-of-production (UOP) basis using proved developed reserves. Acquisition costs of proved properties are amortized on a UOP basis using total proved reserves. During 2017, Chevron's2019, Chevron’s UOP Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (DD&A) for oil and gas properties was $14.8$14.2 billion, and proved developed reserves at the beginning of 20172019 were 6.26.3 billion barrels for consolidated companies. If the estimates of proved reserves used in the UOP calculations for consolidated operations had been lower by 5 percent across all oil and gas properties, UOP DD&A in 20172019 would have increased by approximately $800$700 million. |
| |
| 2. | Impairment - Oil and gas reserves are used in assessing oil and gas producing properties for impairment. A significant reduction in the estimated reserves of a property would trigger an impairment review. Proved reserves (and, in some cases, a portion of unproved resources) are used to estimate future production volumes in the cash flow model. For a further discussion of estimates and assumptions used in impairment assessments, see Impairment of Properties, Plant and Equipment and Investments in Affiliates below. |
Refer to Table V, “Reserve Quantity Information,” beginning on page 95,96, for the changes in proved reserve estimates for the three years ended December 31, 2017,2019, and to Table VII, “Changes in the Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows From Proved Reserves” on page 101103 for estimates of proved reserve values for each of the three years ended December 31, 2017.2019.
This Oil and Gas Reserves commentary should be read in conjunction with the Properties, Plant and Equipment section of Note 1, beginning on page 57, which includes a description of the “successful efforts” method of accounting for oil and gas exploration and production activities.
Impairment of Properties, Plant and Equipment and Investments in Affiliates The company assesses its properties, plant and equipment (PP&E) for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows expected from the asset, an impairment charge is recorded for the excess of carrying value of the asset over its estimated fair value.
Determination as to whether and how much an asset is impaired involves management estimates on highly uncertain matters, such as future commodity prices, the effects of inflation and technology improvements on operating expenses, production profiles, and the outlook for global or regional market supply-and-demand conditions for crude oil, natural gas, commodity chemicals and refined products. However, the impairment reviews and calculations are based on assumptions that are generally consistent with the company’s business plans and long-term investment decisions. Refer also to the discussion of impairments of properties, plant and equipment in Note 2416 on page 8777 and to the section on Properties, Plant and Equipment in Note 1, "Summary“Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,"” beginning on page 57.
The company routinely performs impairment reviews when triggering events arise to determine whether any write-down in the carrying value of an asset or asset group is required. For example, when significant downward revisions to crude oil and natural
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
gas reserves are made for any single field or concession, an impairment review is performed to determine if the carrying value of the asset remains recoverable. Similarly, a significant downward revision in the company'scompany’s crude oil or natural gas price outlook would trigger impairment reviews for impacted upstream assets. In addition, impairments could occur due to changes in national, state or local environmental regulations or laws, including those designed to stop or impede the development or production of oil and gas. Also, if the expectation of sale of a particular asset or asset group in any period has been deemed more likely than not, an impairment review is performed, and if the estimated net proceeds exceed the carrying value of the asset or asset group, no impairment charge is required. Such calculations are reviewed each period until the asset or asset group is disposed of.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
disposed. Assets that are not impaired on a held-and-used basis could possibly become impaired if a decision is made to sell such assets. That is, the assets would be impaired if they are classified as held-for-sale and the estimated proceeds from the sale, less costs to sell, are less than the assets’ associated carrying values.
Investments in common stock of affiliates that are accounted for under the equity method, as well as investments in other securities of these equity investees, are reviewed for impairment when the fair value of the investment falls below the company’s carrying value. When this occurs, a determination must be made as to whether this loss is other-than-temporary, in which case the investment is impaired. Because of the number of differing assumptions potentially affecting whether an investment is impaired in any period or the amount of the impairment, a sensitivity analysis is not practicable.
In 2019, the company recorded impairments and write-offs for certain oil and gas properties following the review and approval of its business plan and capital expenditure program. As a result of the company’s disciplined approach to capital allocation and a downward revision in its longer-term commodity price outlook, the company will reduce funding to various natural gas-related upstream opportunities including Appalachia shale, Kitimat LNG and other international projects. In addition, the revised long-term oil price outlook resulted in an impairment of Big Foot. No individually material impairments of PP&E or Investments were recorded for the year2018 or 2017. The company reported impairments for certain oil and gas properties during 2016 due to reservoir performance and lower crude oil prices. The company reported impairments for certain oil and gas properties during 2015 primarily as a result of downward revisions in the company's longer-term crude oil price outlook. The impairments for the years 2016 and 2015 were primarily in Brazil and the United States. A sensitivity analysis of the impact on earnings for these periods if other assumptions had been used in impairment reviews and impairment calculations is not practicable, given the broad range of the company’s PP&E and the number of assumptions involved in the estimates. That is, favorable changes to some assumptions might have avoided the need to impair any assets in these periods, whereas unfavorable changes might have caused an additional unknown number of other assets to become impaired, or resulted in larger impacts on impaired assets.
Asset Retirement Obligations In the determination of fair value for an asset retirement obligation (ARO), the company uses various assumptions and judgments, including such factors as the existence of a legal obligation, estimated amounts and timing of settlements, discount and inflation rates, and the expected impact of advances in technology and process improvements. A sensitivity analysis of the ARO impact on earnings for 20172019 is not practicable, given the broad range of the company'scompany’s long-lived assets and the number of assumptions involved in the estimates. That is, favorable changes to some assumptions would have reduced estimated future obligations, thereby lowering accretion expense and amortization costs, whereas unfavorable changes would have the opposite effect. Refer to Note 263 on page 89 for additional discussions on asset retirement obligations.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit PlansNote 23,21, beginning on page 82, includes information on the funded status of the company’s pension and other postretirement benefit (OPEB) plans reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheet; the components of pension and OPEB expense reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Income; and the related underlying assumptions.
The determination of pension plan expense and obligations is based on a number of actuarial assumptions. Two critical assumptions are the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets and the discount rate applied to pension plan obligations. Critical assumptions in determining expense and obligations for OPEB plans, which provide for certain health care and life insurance benefits for qualifying retired employees and which are not funded, are the discount rate and the assumed health care cost-trend rates. Information related to the company’s processes to develop these assumptions is included on page 84 in Note 2321 under the relevant headings. Actual rates may vary significantly from estimates because of unanticipated changes inbeyond the world's financial markets.company’s control.
For 2017,2019, the company used an expected long-term rate of return of 6.75 percent and a discount rate for service costs of 4.24.4 percent and a discount rate for interest cost of 3.03.7 percent for U.S. pension plans. The actual return for 20172019 was 15.718.3 percent. For the 10 years endingended December 31, 2017,2019, actual asset returns averaged 5.28.1 percent for the plan.these plans. Additionally, with the exception of three years within this 10-year period, actual asset returns for this planthese plans equaled or exceeded 6.75 percent during each year.
Total pension expense for 20172019 was $1.2$0.9 billion. An increase in the expected long-term return on plan assets or the discount rate would reduce pension plan expense, and vice versa. As an indication of the sensitivity of pension expense to the long-term rate of return assumption, a 1 percent increase in this assumption for the company’s primary U.S. pension plan, which accounted for about 6159 percent of companywide pension expense, would have reduced total pension plan expense for 2017
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
2019 by approximately $79 million. A 1 percent increase in the discount rates for this same plan would have reduced pension expense for 20172019 by approximately $305$197 million.
The aggregate funded status recognized at December 31, 2017,2019, was a net liability of approximately $4.4$5.2 billion. An increase in the discount rate would decrease the pension obligation, thus changing the funded status of a plan. At December 31, 2017,2019, the company used a discount rate of 3.53.1 percent to measure the obligations for the U.S. pension plans. As an indication of the
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
sensitivity of pension liabilities to the discount rate assumption, a 0.25 percent increase in the discount rate applied to the company’s primary U.S. pension plan, which accounted for about 62 percent of the companywide pension obligation, would have reduced the plan obligation by approximately $478$401 million, and would have decreased the plan’s underfunded status from approximately $2.0$2.5 billion to $1.5$2.1 billion.
For the company’s OPEB plans, expense for 20172019 was $94$101 million, and the total liability, all unfunded at the end of 2017,2019, was $2.8$2.5 billion. For the main U.S. OPEB plan, the company used a discount rate for service cost of 4.64.5 percent and a discount rate for interest cost of 3.43.9 percent to measure expense in 2017,2019, and a 3.63.1 percent discount rate to measure the benefit obligations at December 31, 2017.2019. Discount rate changes, similar to those used in the pension sensitivity analysis, resulted in an immaterial impact on 20172019 OPEB expense and OPEB liabilities at the end of 2017.2019. For information on the sensitivity of the health care cost-trend rate, refer to page 84 in Note 2321 under the heading “Other Benefit Assumptions.”
Differences between the various assumptions used to determine expense and the funded status of each plan and actual experience are included in actuarial gain/loss. Refer to page 8483 in Note 2321 for a description of the method used to amortize the $5.5$6.5 billion of before-tax actuarial losses recorded by the company as of December 31, 2017,2019, and an estimate of the costs to be recognized in expense during 2018.2020. In addition, information related to company contributions is included on page 86 in Note 2321 under the heading “Cash Contributions and Benefit Payments.”
Contingent Losses Management also makes judgments and estimates in recording liabilities for claims, litigation, tax matters and environmental remediation. Actual costs can frequently vary from estimates for a variety of reasons. For example, the costs for settlement of claims and litigation can vary from estimates based on differing interpretations of laws, opinions on culpability and assessments on the amount of damages. Similarly, liabilities for environmental remediation are subject to change because of changes in laws, regulations and their interpretation, the determination of additional information on the extent and nature of site contamination, and improvements in technology.
Under the accounting rules, a liability is generally recorded for these types of contingencies if management determines the loss to be both probable and estimable. The company generally reports these losses as “Operating expenses” or “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the Consolidated Statement of Income. An exception to this handling is for income tax matters, for which benefits are recognized only if management determines the tax position is “more likely than not” (i.e., likelihood greater than 50 percent) to be allowed by the tax jurisdiction. For additional discussion of income tax uncertainties, refer to Note 252 beginning on page 87. Refer also to the business segment discussions elsewhere in this section for the effect on earnings from losses associated with certain litigation, environmental remediation and tax matters for the three years ended December 31, 2017.2019.
An estimate as to the sensitivity to earnings for these periods if other assumptions had been used in recording these liabilities is not practicable because of the number of contingencies that must be assessed, the number of underlying assumptions and the wide range of reasonably possible outcomes, both in terms of the probability of loss and the estimates of such loss. For further information, refer to “Changes in management’s estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements and financial or operational performance in any given period” in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, on page 21.

| | Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm | |
| | To theBoard of Directors and Shareholders of Chevron Corporation:
| |
| | Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting | |
| We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheetssheet of Chevron Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, and the related consolidated statements of income, of comprehensive income, of equity and of cash flows and equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017,2019, including the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2)(collectively (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).We also have audited the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017,2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework(2013)issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). | |
| In our opinion, the consolidatedfinancial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 20172019 and 20162018, and the results of theirits operations and theirits cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 20172019 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017,2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework(2013)issued by the COSO.
| |
| | Basis for Opinions The Company'sCompany’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management'sthe accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control overOver Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A.Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB")(PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidatedfinancial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
| |
| | Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. | |
| | |
|
| | |
| Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. | |
| | /s/ PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS LLPThe Impact of Crude Oil and Natural Gas Reserves and Other Factors on Upstream Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net As described in Notes 1 and 16 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s upstream property, plant and equipment, net balance was $133.7 billion as of December 31, 2019, and related depreciation, depletion and amortization expense was $27.8 billion, including impairments of $10.8 billion for the year ended December 31, 2019. Management uses the successful efforts method for crude oil and natural gas exploration and production activities. Depreciation and depletion of all capitalized costs of proved crude oil and natural gas producing properties, except mineral interests, are expensed using the unit-of-production method, generally by individual field, as the proved developed reserves are produced. Depletion expenses for capitalized costs of proved mineral interests are recognized using the unit-of-production method by individual field as the related proved reserves are produced. Upstream property, plant, and equipment to be held and used, including proved crude oil and natural gas properties, are assessed for possible impairment by comparing their carrying values with their associated undiscounted, future net cash flows. Impaired assets are written down to their estimated fair values, generally their discounted, future net cash flows. As disclosed by management, determination as to whether and how much an asset is impaired involves management estimates on uncertain matters, such as future commodity prices, operating expenses, production profiles, and the outlook for global or regional market supply-and-demand conditions for crude oil, natural gas, commodity chemicals and refined products. Variables impacting Chevron’s estimated volumes of crude oil and natural gas reserves include field performance, available technology, commodity prices, and development and production costs. Reserves are estimated by Company asset teams composed of earth scientists and engineers. As part of the internal control process related to reserves estimation, the Company maintains a Reserves Advisory Committee (RAC) (the RAC is referred to as “management’s specialists”). The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impact of crude oil and natural gas reserves and other factors on upstream property, plant, and equipment, net is a critical audit matter are there was significant judgment by management, including the use of management’s specialists, when developing the estimates of proved crude oil and natural gas reserves and assessing upstream property, plant, and equipment to be held and used for impairment. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence obtained related to the significant assumptions used by management, including future commodity prices, production profiles, development costs, and operating expenses. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s calculation of upstream depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, assessment of upstream property, plant, and equipment to be held and used for impairment, and estimates of proved crude oil and natural gas reserves. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing the unit-of-production rates used to calculate depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, (ii) testing the completeness, accuracy, and relevance of underlying data used in management’s estimates, and (iii) evaluating the significant assumptions used by management in developing these estimates, including future commodity prices, production profiles, development costs and operating expenses. Evaluating the significant assumptions relating to the estimates of crude oil and natural gas reserves also involved obtaining evidence to support the reasonableness of the assumptions, including whether the assumptions used were reasonable considering the past performance of the company, and whether they were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. The work of management’s specialists was used in performing the procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates of proved crude oil and natural gas reserves. As a basis for using this work, the specialists’ qualifications and objectivity were understood, as well as the methods and assumptions used by the specialists. The procedures performed also included tests of the data used by the specialists and an evaluation of the specialists’ findings. | |

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts
Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
General The company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in the financial statements, as well as amounts included in the notes thereto, including discussion and disclosure of contingent liabilities. Although the company uses its best estimates and judgments, actual results could differ from these estimates as future confirming events occur.circumstances change and additional information becomes known.
Subsidiary and Affiliated Companies The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of controlled subsidiary companies more than 50 percent-owned and any variable-interest entities in which the company is the primary beneficiary. Undivided interests in oil and gas joint ventures and certain other assets are consolidated on a proportionate basis. Investments in and advances to affiliates in which the company has a substantial ownership interest of approximately 20 percent to 50 percent, or for which the company exercises significant influence but not control over policy decisions, are accounted for by the equity method. As part of that accounting, the company recognizes gains and losses that arise from the issuance of stock by an affiliate that results in changes in the company’s proportionate share of the dollar amount of the affiliate’s equity currently in income.
Investments in affiliates are assessed for possible impairment when events indicate that the fair value of the investment may be below the company’s carrying value. When such a condition is deemed to be other than temporary, the carrying value of the investment is written down to its fair value, and the amount of the write-down is included in net income. In making the determination as to whether a decline is other than temporary, the company considers such factors as the duration and extent of the decline, the investee’s financial performance, and the company’s ability and intention to retain its investment for a period that will be sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the investment’s market value. The new cost basis of investments in these equity investees is not changed for subsequent recoveries in fair value.
Differences between the company’s carrying value of an equity investment and its underlying equity in the net assets of the affiliate are assigned to the extent practicable to specific assets and liabilities based on the company’s analysis of the various factors giving rise to the difference. When appropriate, the company’s share of the affiliate’s reported earnings is adjusted quarterly to reflect the difference between these allocated values and the affiliate’s historical book values.
Noncontrolling Interests Ownership interests in the company’s subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent are presented separately from the parent’s 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 and Consolidated Statement of Equity.
Fair Value MeasurementsThe three levels of the fair value hierarchy of inputs the company uses to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability are as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are inputs that are not observable in the market.
DerivativesThe majority of the company’s activity in derivative commodity instruments is intended to manage the financial risk posed by physical transactions. For some of this derivative activity, generally limited to large, discrete or infrequently occurring transactions, the company may elect to apply fair value or cash flow hedge accounting. For other similar derivative instruments, generally because of the short-term nature of the contracts or their limited use, the company does not apply hedge accounting, and changes in the fair value of those contracts are reflected in current income. For the company’s commodity trading activity, gains and losses from derivative instruments are reported in current income. The company may enter into interest rate swaps from time to time as part of its overall strategy to manage the interest rate risk on its debt. Interest rate swaps related to a portion of the company’s fixed-rate debt, if any, may be accounted for as fair value hedges. Interest rate swaps related to floating-rate debt, if any, are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet with resulting gains and losses reflected in income. Where Chevron is a party to master netting arrangements, fair value receivable and payable amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty are generally offset on the balance sheet.
Short-Term Investments All short-term investments are classified as available for sale and are in highly liquid debt securities. Those investments that are part of the company’s cash management portfolio and have original maturities of three months or less are reported as “Cash equivalents.” Bank time deposits with maturities greater than 90 days are reported as “Time deposits.” The balance of short-term investments is reported as “Marketable securities” and is marked-to-market, with any unrealized gains or losses included in “Other comprehensive income.”
InventoriesCrude oil, petroleum products and chemicals inventories are generally stated at cost, using a last-in, first-out method. In the aggregate, these costs are below market. “Materials, supplies and other” inventories are primarily stated at cost or net realizable value.
Properties, Plant and EquipmentThe successful efforts method is used for crude oil and natural gas exploration and production activities. All costs for development wells, related plant and equipment, proved mineral interests in crude oil and natural gas
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts
properties, and related asset retirement obligation (ARO) assets are capitalized. Costs of exploratory wells are capitalized pending determination of whether the wells found proved reserves. Costs of wells that are assigned proved
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts
reserves remain capitalized. Costs also are capitalized for exploratory wells that have found crude oil and natural gas reserves even if the reserves cannot be classified as proved when the drilling is completed, provided the exploratory well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well and the company is making sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. All other exploratory wells and costs are expensed. Refer to Note 21,19, beginning on page 80,79, for additional discussion of accounting for suspended exploratory well costs.
Long-lived assets to be held and used, including proved crude oil and natural gas properties, are assessed for possible impairment by comparing their carrying values with their associated undiscounted, future net cash flows. Events that can trigger assessments for possible impairments include write-downs of proved reserves based on field performance, significant decreases in the market value of an asset (including changes to the commodity price forecast), significant change in the extent or manner of use of or a physical change in an asset, and a more-likely-than-not expectation that a long-lived asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly sooner than the end of its previously estimated useful life. Impaired assets are written down to their estimated fair values, generally their discounted, future net cash flows. For proved crude oil and natural gas properties, the company performs impairment reviews on a country, concession, PSC, development area or field basis, as appropriate. In Downstream, impairment reviews are performed on the basis of a refinery, a plant, a marketing/lubricants area or distribution area, as appropriate. Impairment amounts are recorded as incremental “Depreciation, depletion and amortization” expense.
Long-lived assets that are held for sale are evaluated for possible impairment by comparing the carrying value of the asset with its fair value less the cost to sell. If the net book value exceeds the fair value less cost to sell, the asset is considered impaired and adjusted to the lower value. Refer to Note 10,7, beginning on page 64,65, relating to fair value measurements. The fair value of a liability for an ARO is recorded as an asset and a liability when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a long-lived asset and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Refer also to Note 26,3, on page 89, relating to AROs.
Depreciation and depletion of all capitalized costs of proved crude oil and natural gas producing properties, except mineral interests, are expensed using the unit-of-production method, generally by individual field, as the proved developed reserves are produced. Depletion expenses for capitalized costs of proved mineral interests are recognized using the unit-of-production method by individual field as the related proved reserves are produced. Impairments of capitalized costs of unproved mineral interests are expensed.
The capitalized costs of all other plant and equipment are depreciated or amortized over their estimated useful lives. In general, the declining-balance method is used to depreciate plant and equipment in the United States; the straight-line method is generally used to depreciate international plant and equipment and to amortize all capitalized leasedfinance lease right-of-use assets.
Gains or losses are not recognized for normal retirements of properties, plant and equipment subject to composite group amortization or depreciation. Gains or losses from abnormal retirements are recorded as expenses, and from sales as “Other income.”
Expenditures for maintenance (including those for planned major maintenance projects), repairs and minor renewals to maintain facilities in operating condition are generally expensed as incurred. Major replacements and renewals are capitalized.
Goodwill Goodwill resulting from a business combination is not subject to amortization. The company tests such goodwill at the reporting unit level for impairment annually at December 31, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount.
Environmental Expenditures Environmental expenditures that relate to ongoing operations or to conditions caused by past operations are expensed. Expenditures that create future benefits or contribute to future revenue generation are capitalized.
Liabilities related to future remediation costs are recorded when environmental assessments or cleanups or both are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. For crude oil, natural gas and mineral-producing properties, a liability for an ARO is made in accordance with accounting standards for asset retirement and environmental obligations. Refer to Note 26,3, on page 89, for a discussion of the company’s AROs.
For federal Superfund sites and analogous sites under state laws, the company records a liability for its designated share of the probable and estimable costs, and probable amounts for other potentially responsible parties when mandated by the regulatory agencies because the other parties are not able to pay their respective shares. The gross amount of environmental liabilities is based on the company’s best estimate of future costs using currently available technology and applying current

regulations and the company’s own internal environmental policies. Future amounts are not discounted. Recoveries or reimbursements are recorded as assets when receipt is reasonably assured.

Currency Translation The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for substantially all of the company’s consolidated operations and those of its equity affiliates. For those operations, all gains and losses from currency remeasurement are included in current period income. The cumulative translation effects for those few entities, both consolidated and affiliated, using functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are included in “Currency translation adjustment” on the Consolidated Statement of Equity.
Revenue Recognition Revenues associated with salesThe company accounts for each delivery order of crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemicalschemical products and all other sources are recordedas a separate performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when title passesthe performance obligation is satisfied, which typically occurs at the point in time when control of the product transfers to the customer, netcustomer. Payment is generally due within 30 days of royalties,delivery. The company accounts for delivery transportation as a fulfillment cost, not a separate performance obligation, and recognizes these costs as an operating expense in the period when revenue for the related commodity is recognized.
Revenue is measured as the amount the company expects to receive in exchange for transferring commodities to the customer. The company’s commodity sales are typically based on prevailing market-based prices and may include discounts and allowances. Until market prices become known under terms of the company’s contracts, the transaction price included in revenue is based on the company’s estimate of the most likely outcome.
Discounts and allowances as applicable. Revenues from natural gas production from propertiesare estimated using a combination of historical and recent data trends. When deliveries contain multiple products, an observable standalone selling price is generally used to measure revenue for each product. The company includes estimates in which Chevron has an interest with other producers are generally recognized using the entitlement method. transaction price only to the extent that a significant reversal of revenue is not probable in subsequent periods.
Excise, value-added and similar taxes assessed by a governmental authority on a revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer are presented on a gross basis. The associated amounts are shown as a footnote tonet basis in “Taxes other than on income” on the Consolidated Statement of Income, on page 52. Purchases and sales of inventory with the same counterparty that are entered into in contemplation of one another (including buy/sell arrangements) are combined and recorded on a net basis and reported in “Purchased crude oil and products” on the Consolidated Statement of Income.
Prior to the adoption of ASC 606 on January 1, 2018, revenues associated with sales of crude oil, natural gas, petroleum and chemicals products, and all other sources were recorded when title passed to the customer, net of royalties, discounts and allowances, as applicable. Revenues from natural gas production from properties in which Chevron has an interest with other producers were generally recognized using the entitlement method. Excise, value-added and similar taxes assessed by a governmental authority on a revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer were presented on a gross basis on the Consolidated Statement of Income.
Stock Options and Other Share-Based CompensationThe company issues stock options and other share-based compensation to certain employees. For equity awards, such as stock options, total compensation cost is based on the grant date fair value, and for liability awards, such as stock appreciation rights, total compensation cost is based on the settlement value. The company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all awards over the service period required to earn the award, which is the shorter of the vesting period or the time period in which an employee becomes eligible to retain the award at retirement. The company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) awards include stock options and stock appreciation rights, which have graded vesting provisions by which one-third of each award vests on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. In addition, performance shares granted under the company'scompany’s LTIP will vest at the end of the three-year performance period. For awards granted under the company'scompany’s LTIP beginning in 2017, stock options and stock appreciation rights have graded vesting by which one third of each award vests annually on each January 31 on or after the first anniversary of the grant date. Standard restricted stock unit awards have cliff vesting by which the total award will vest on January 31 on or after the fifth anniversary of the grant date, subject to adjustment upon termination pursuant to the satisfaction of certain criteria. The company amortizes these awards on a straight-line basis.

The standard provides a single comprehensive revenue recognition model for contracts with customers, eliminates most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance,2019, Chevron adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02 and expands disclosure requirements. The company has elected to adopt the standard using the modified retrospective transition method. "Sales and Other Operating Revenues” on the Consolidated Statement of Income includes excise, value-added and similar taxes on sales transactions. Upon adoption of the standard, revenue will exclude sales-based taxes collected on behalf of third parties, which will have no impact to earnings. The company completed its accounting policy and system enhancements necessary to meet the standard's requirements. The company does not expect the implementation of the standard to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Leases (Topic 842)In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which becomes effective for the company January 1, 2019.

Lease Commitments
Certain noncancellableChevron implemented the new lease standard at the effective date of January 1, 2019. The cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of 2019 retained earnings is de minimis. The company elected the option to apply the transition provisions at the adoption date instead of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. By making this election, the company has not applied retrospective reporting for the comparable periods. The company elected the short-term lease exception provided for in the standard and therefore only recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases are classifiedwith a term greater than one year.
The company elected the package of practical expedients to not re-evaluate existing contracts as capitalcontaining a lease or the lease classification unless it was not previously assessed against the lease criteria. In addition, the company did not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The company applied the land easement practical expedient. The company has elected the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components for most asset classes except for certain asset classes that have significant non-lease (i.e., service) components. The company assessed some contracts, including those for drill ships, drilling rigs, and storage tanks, not previously assessed against the lease criteria, as operating leases andunder the leased assets are included as part of “Properties, plant and equipment, at cost” onnew standard, increasing the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Suchlease commitments by approximately $2 billion.

Other leasesas a lessee; any lessor arrangements are not significant. Leases are classified as operating or finance leases.

Operating lease arrangements mainly involve drill ships, drilling rigs, time chartered vessels, bareboat charters, terminals,

exploration and production equipment, office buildings and warehouses, and land. Finance leases primarily include facilities and vessels.
Chevron uses various assumptions and judgments in preparing the quantitative data and qualitative information that is material to the company’s overall lease population. Where leases are recordedused in joint ventures, the company recognizes 100% of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when the company is the sole signatory for the lease (in most cases, where the company is the operator of a joint venture). Lease costs reflect only the costs associated with the operator’s working interest share. The lease term includes the committed lease term identified in the contract, taking into account renewal and termination options that management is reasonably certain to exercise. The company uses its incremental borrowing rate as expense. a proxy for the discount rate based on the term of the lease unless the implicit rate is available.

Fair Value Measurements
The tables below and on the next page show the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2017,2019, and December 31, 2016.2018.
Marketable Securities The company calculates fair value for its marketable securities based on quoted market prices for identical assets. The fair values reflect the cash that would have been received if the instruments were sold at December 31, 2017.2019.
DerivativesThe 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 the offsetting amount to the Consolidated Statement of Income. 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 of 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.
Properties, Plant and Equipment The company reported impairments for certain upstream properties during 2019 primarily due to capital allocation decisions and a lower long-term commodity price outlook. The company did not have any individually material impairments in 2017. 2018.
Investments and Advances The company reported impairments for certain oil and gas propertiesupstream equity companies during 20162019 primarily due to reservoir performancecapital allocation decisions and a lower crude oil prices.

Financial and Derivative Instruments
Derivative Commodity Instruments The company’s derivative commodity instruments principally include crude oil, natural gas and refined product futures, swaps, options, and forward contracts. None of the company’s derivative instruments is designated as a hedging instrument, although certain of the company’s affiliates make such designation. The company’s derivatives are not material to the company’s 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 commodity derivative activities.
The company uses derivative commodity instruments traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange and on electronic platforms of the Inter-Continental Exchange and Chicago Mercantile Exchange. In addition, the company enters into swap contracts and option contracts principally with major financial institutions and other oil and gas companies in the “over-the-counter” markets, which are governed by International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreements and other master netting arrangements. Depending on the nature of the derivative transactions, bilateral collateral arrangements may also be required.
Derivative instruments measured at fair value at December 31, 2017,2019, December 31, 2016,2018, and December 31, 2015,2017, and their classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Income are on the next page:below:

Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as accounts and notes receivable, long-term receivables, accounts payable, and deferred credits and other noncurrent obligations. Amounts not offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheet represent positions that do not meet all the conditions for "a“a right of offset."”
Concentrations of Credit Risk The company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of its cash equivalents, time deposits, marketable securities, derivative financial instruments and trade receivables. The company’s short-term investments are placed with a wide array of financial institutions with high credit ratings. Company investment policies limit the company’s exposure both to credit risk and to concentrations of credit risk. Similar policies on diversification and creditworthiness are applied to the company’s counterparties in derivative instruments.
The trade receivable balances, reflecting the company’s diversified sources of revenue, are dispersed among the company’s broad customer base worldwide. As a result, the company believes concentrations of credit risk are limited. The company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. When the financial strength of a customer is not considered sufficient, alternative risk mitigation measures may be deployed, including requiring pre-payments, letters of credit or other acceptable collateral instruments to support sales to customers.
Note 129

Descriptions of major affiliates, including significant differences between the company’s carrying value of its investments and its underlying equity in the net assets of the affiliates, are as follows:
Tengizchevroil Chevron has a 50 percent equity ownership interest in Tengizchevroil (TCO), which operates the Tengiz and Korolev crude oil fields in Kazakhstan. At December 31, 2017,2019, the company’s carrying value of its investment in TCO was about $130$110 higher than the amount of underlying equity in TCO’s net assets. This difference results from Chevron acquiring a portion of its interest in TCO at a value greater than the underlying book value for that portion of TCO’s net assets. Included in the investment is a loan to TCO to fund the development of the Future Growth and Wellhead Pressure Management Project with a balance of $2,060, including accrued interest. See Note 8, on page 63, for summarized financial information for 100 percent of TCO.$3,350.
Petropiar Chevron has a 30 percent interest in Petropiar, a joint stock company which operates the Hamaca heavy-oil productionheavy oil Huyapari Field and upgrading project in Venezuela’s Orinoco Belt. At December 31, 2017,2019, the company’s carrying value of its investment in Petropiar was approximately $145$130 less than the amount of underlying equity in Petropiar’s net assets. The difference represents the excess of Chevron’s underlying equity in Petropiar’s net assets over the net book value of the assets contributed to the venture.
Caspian Pipeline Consortium Chevron has a 15 percent interest in the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, a variable interest entity, which provides the critical export route for crude oil from both TCO and Karachaganak. The company has investments and advances totaling $1,151, which includes long-term loans of $727 at year-end 2017. The loans were provided to fund 30 percent of the initial pipeline construction. The company is not the primary beneficiary of the consortium because it does not direct activities of the consortium and only receives its proportionate share of the financial returns.
Petroboscan Chevron has a 39.2 percent interest in Petroboscan, a joint stock company which operates the Boscan Field in Venezuela. At December 31, 2017,2019, the company’s carrying value of its investment in Petroboscan was approximately $105$90 higher than the amount of underlying equity in Petroboscan’s net assets. The difference reflects the excess of the net book value of the assets contributed by Chevron over its underlying equity in Petroboscan’s net assets. The company also has an outstanding long-term loan to Petroboscan of $686$566 at year-end 2017.2019.
Caspian Pipeline Consortium Chevron has a 15 percent interest in the Caspian Pipeline Consortium, a variable interest entity, which provides the critical export route for crude oil from both TCO and Karachaganak. The company has investments and advances totaling $883, which includes long-term loans of $199 at year-end 2019. The loans were provided to fund 30 percent of the initial pipeline construction. The company is not the primary beneficiary of the consortium because it does not direct activities of the consortium and only receives its proportionate share of the financial returns.

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 eight6 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 company’s ultimate exposure related to pending lawsuits and claims is not determinable. The company no longer uses MTBE in the manufacture of gasoline in the United States.
Ecuador
Background Chevron is a defendant in civil litigation proceedings stemming from a civil lawsuit initiatedfiled in the Superior Court for the province of Nueva Loja in Lago Agrio, Ecuador in May 2003 by plaintiffs who claim to be representatives of certain residents of an area where an oil production consortium formerly had operations.operated. The lawsuit alleges damagealleged harm to the environment from the consortium’s oil explorationproduction activities and production operationssought monetary damages and seeks unspecified damages to fund environmental remediation and restoration of the alleged environmental harm, plus a health monitoring program. Until 1992,other relief. Texaco Petroleum Company (Texpet), a subsidiary of Texaco Inc., was a minority member of thisthe consortium from 1967 until 1992, with Petroecuador, the Ecuadorian state-owned oil company,Petroecuador as the majority partner; since 1990,partner. Since 1992, Petroecuador has been the operations have been conducted solely by Petroecuador. Atsole owner and operator in the conclusionconcession area. After the termination of the consortium and following an independent third-party environmental audit of the concession area, in 1995, Texpet entered into a formal agreement with the Republic of Ecuador and Petroecuador forunder which Texpet agreed to remediate specific sites assigned by the government in proportion to Texpet’s ownershipminority share of the consortium. Pursuant to that agreement, Texpet conducted a three-year remediation program at a cost of $40.program. After certifying that the assigned sites were properly remediated, the governmentin 1998, Ecuador granted Texpet and all related corporate entities a full release from any and all environmental liability arising from the consortium operations.
BasedChevron defended itself in the Lago Agrio lawsuit on the history described above, Chevron believesgrounds that this lawsuit lacksthe claims lacked both legal orand factual merit. As to matters of law, the company believes first,Chevron asserted that the court lackslacked jurisdiction, over Chevron; second, that the law under which plaintiffs bring the action, enacted insought to improperly apply a 1999 cannot be applied retroactively; third, that the claims are barred by the statute of limitations inlaw

Ecuador;retroactively, the claims were time-barred, and fourth, that the lawsuit is alsowas barred by the releases from liability previously given to Texpetsigned by the Republic of Ecuador, and Petroecuador, and by the pertinent provincial and municipal governments. With regard to the facts, the company believesasserted that the evidence confirms thatconfirmed Texpet’s remediation was properly conducted and that theany remaining environmental damage reflectsimpacts reflected Petroecuador’s failure to timely fulfill its own legal obligationsobligation to remediate the concession area and Petroecuador’s further conduct since assuming fullafter it assumed control over the operations.
Lago Agrio JudgmentIn 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 $18,900, 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 engineer’s report also asserted that an additional $8,400 could be assessed against Chevron for unjust enrichment. In 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 was recused. In 2010, Chevron moved to strike the mining engineer’s report and to dismiss the case based on evidence obtained through discovery in the United States indicating that the report was prepared by consultants for the plaintiffs before being presented as the mining engineer’s independent and impartial work and showing further evidence of misconduct. In August 2010, the judge issued an order stating that he was not bound by the mining engineer’s report and requiring the parties to provide their positions on damages within 45 days. Chevron subsequently petitioned for recusal of the judge, claiming that he had disregarded evidence of fraud and misconduct and that he had failed to rule on a number of motions within the statutory time requirement.
In September 2010, Chevron submitted its position on damages, asserting that no amount should be assessed against it. The plaintiffs’ submission, which relied in part on the mining engineer’s report, took the position that damages are between approximately $16,000 and $76,000 and that unjust enrichment should be assessed in an amount between approximately $5,000 and $38,000. The next day, the judge issued an order closing the evidentiary phase of the case and notifying the parties that he had requested the case file so that he could prepare a judgment. Chevron petitioned to have that order declared a nullity in light of Chevron’s prior recusal petition, and because procedural and evidentiary matters remained unresolved. In October 2010, Chevron’s motion to recuse the judge was granted. A new judge took charge of the case and revoked the prior judge’s order closing the evidentiary phase of the case. On December 17, 2010, the judge issued an order closing the evidentiary phase of the case and notifying the parties that he had requested the case file so that he could prepare a judgment.
On February 14, 2011, the provincial court in Lago Agrio rendered an adversea judgment in the case. The court rejected Chevron’s defenses to the extent the court addressed them in its opinion. The judgment assessedagainst Chevron, awarding approximately $8,600 in damages, andplus approximately $900 as an award for the plaintiffs’ representatives. It also assessed an additional amount ofrepresentatives, and approximately $8,600 in additional punitive damages unless the company issued a public apology within 15 days, of the judgment, which Chevron did not do. On February 17, 2011, the plaintiffs appealed the judgment, seeking increased damages, and on March 11, 2011, Chevron appealed the judgment seeking to have the judgment nullified. OnIn January 3, 2012 an appellate panel in the provincial court affirmed the February 14, 2011 decisionjudgment and ordered that Chevron pay an additional 0.10% in attorneys’ fees in the amount of “0.10% of the values that are derived from the decisional act of this judgment.” The plaintiffs filed a petition to clarify and amplify the appellate decision on January 6, 2012, and the court issued a ruling in response on January 13, 2012, purporting to clarify and amplify its January 3, 2012 ruling, which included clarification that the deadline for the company to issue a public apology to avoid the additional amount of approximately $8,600 in punitive damages was within 15 days of the clarification ruling, or February 3, 2012. Chevron did not issue an apology because doing so might be mischaracterized as an admission of liability and would be contrary to facts and evidence submitted at trial. On January 20, 2012, Chevron appealed (called a petition for cassation) the appellate panel’s decision tofees. In November 2013, Ecuador’s National Court of Justice. As part of the appeal, Chevron requested the suspension of any requirement that Chevron post a bond to prevent enforcement under Ecuadorian law of the judgment during the cassation appeal. On February 17, 2012, the appellate panel of the provincial court admitted Chevron’s cassation appeal in a procedural step necessary for the National Court of Justice to hear the appeal. The provincial court appellate panel denied Chevron’s request for suspension of the requirement that Chevron post a bond and stated that it would not comply with the First and Second Interim Awards of the international arbitration tribunal discussed below. On March 29, 2012, the matter was transferred from the provincial court to the National Court of Justice, and on November 22, 2012, the National Court agreed to hear Chevron's cassation appeal. On August 3, 2012, the provincial court in Lago Agrio approved a court-appointed liquidator’s report on damages that calculated the total judgment in the case to be $19,100. On November 13, 2013, the National Court ratified the judgment but nullified the $8,600 punitive damage assessment, resulting in a judgment of $9,500. OnIn December 23, 2013, Chevron appealed the decision to the EcuadorEcuador’s highest Constitutional Court, Ecuador's highest court. which rejected Chevron’s appeal in July 2018. No further appeals are available in Ecuador.
The reporting justice of the Constitutional Court heard oral arguments on the appeal on July 16, 2015.

Lago Agrio Plaintiffs' Enforcement ActionsChevron has no assetsplaintiffs’ lawyers have sought to enforce the judgment in Ecuador and the Lago Agrio plaintiffs' lawyers have stated in press releasesother jurisdictions. In May 2012, they filed a recognition and through other media that they will seek to enforce the Ecuadorian judgment in various countries and otherwise disrupt Chevron's operations. On May 30, 2012, the Lago Agrio plaintiffs filed anenforcement action against Chevron Corporation, Chevron Canada Limited and Chevron Canada Finance Limitedanother subsidiary (which was later dismissed as a party) in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Ontario, Canada, seeking to recognize and enforce the Ecuadorian judgment. On May 1, 2013, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice held that the Court has jurisdiction over Chevron and Chevron Canada Limited for purposes of the action, but stayed the action due to the absence of evidence that Chevron Corporation has assets in Ontario. The Lago Agrio plaintiffs appealed that decision and on December 17, 2013, the Court of Appeals for Ontario affirmed the lower court’s decision on jurisdiction and set aside the stay, allowing the recognition and enforcement action to be heard in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. Chevron appealed the decision toCanada. In September 2015, the Supreme Court of Canada and, on September 4, 2015, the Supreme Court dismissed the appeal and affirmedruled that the Ontario Superior Court of Justice hashad jurisdiction over Chevron Corporation and Chevron Canada Limited for purposes of the action.

The Supreme Court of Canada denied the plaintiffs’ application for leave to appeal in April 2019, rendering the dismissal of Chevron Canada Limited final. In July 2019, by consent of the parties, the Ontario Superior Court dismissed the recognition and enforcement claimaction against Chevron Canada Limited. Chevron Corporation still remains as a defendantwith prejudice and with costs in the action. On February 3, 2017, the Lago Agrio plaintiffs appealed the Superior Court's January 20, 2017 decision.
Onfavor of Chevron. In June 27, 2012, the Lago Agrio plaintiffs filed a complaintrecognition and enforcement action against Chevron Corporation in the Superior Court of Justice in Brasilia, Brazil, seeking to recognize and enforceBrazil. In May 2015, the Ecuadorian judgment. Chevron has answered the complaint. In accordance with Brazilian procedure, the matter was referred to the public prosecutor for a nonbinding opinion of the issues raised in the complaint. On May 13, 2015, the public prosecutor issued its nonbindingan opinion and recommendedrecommending that the Superior Court of Justicecourt reject the plaintiffs' recognition and enforcement request, finding, among other things,plaintiffs’ action on grounds including that the Lago Agrio judgment was procured through fraud and corruption and cannot be recognized in Brazil because it violatesviolated Brazilian and international public order. OnIn November 29, 2017, the Superior Court of Justice issued a decision dismissingdismissed the Lago Agrio plaintiffs’ recognition and enforcement proceeding basedaction on jurisdictional grounds.
Ongrounds, and in June 2018 the dismissal became final in Brazil. In October 15, 2012, the provincial court in Lago AgrioEcuador issued an ex parte embargo order that purportspurporting to order the seizure of assets belonging to separate Chevron subsidiaries in Ecuador, Argentina and Colombia. OnIn November 6, 2012, at the request of the Lago Agrio plaintiffs, a court in Argentina issued a Freeze Orderfreeze order against Chevron Argentina S.R.L. and another Chevron subsidiary, Ingeniero Norberto Priu, requiring shares of both companies to be "embargoed," requiring third parties to withhold 40 percent of any payments due to Chevron Argentina S.R.L. and ordering banks to withhold 40 percent of the funds in Chevron Argentina S.R.L. bank accounts. On December 14, 2012, the Argentinean court rejected a motion to revoke the Freeze Order but modified it by ordering that third parties are not required to withhold funds but must report their payments. The court also clarified that the Freeze Order relating to bank accounts excludes taxes. Onsubsidiary. In January 30, 2013, an appellate court upheld the Freeze Order,freeze order, but onin June 4, 2013, the Supreme Court of Argentina revoked the Freeze Orderfreeze order in its entirety. OnIn December 12, 2013, Chevron was served with the Lago Agrio plaintiffs served Chevron with noticeplaintiffs’ complaint seeking recognition and enforcement of their filing of an enforcement proceedingthe judgment in the National Court, First Instance, of Argentina.

On November 2, 2017, the Lago Agrio plaintiffs appealed this decision togrounds and the Federal Civil Court of Appeals.
Appeals affirmed the dismissal in July 2018. The plaintiffs’ appeal to the Supreme Court of Argentina remains pending. Chevron continues to believe the provincial court’sEcuadorian judgment is illegitimate and unenforceable in Ecuador, the United States and other countries. The company also believes the judgmentbecause it is the product of fraud and corruption, and contrary to the law and all legitimate scientific evidence. Chevron cannot predict the timing or ultimate outcome of the appeals process in Ecuadorany pending or anythreatened enforcement action. Chevronaction, but expects to continue a vigorous defense ofagainst any imposition of liability in the Ecuadorian courts and to contest and defend any and all enforcement actions.
Company's Bilateral Investment Treaty Arbitration ClaimsIn February 2011, Chevron filed a civil lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Lago Agrio plaintiffs and several of their lawyers and supporters, asserting violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act and state law. In March 2014, the District Court entered a judgment in favor of Chevron, finding that the Ecuadorian judgment had been procured through fraud, bribery and corruption, and prohibiting the RICO defendants from seeking to enforce the Lago Agrio judgment in the United States or profiting from their illegal acts. In August 2016, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued a unanimous decision affirming the New York judgment in full. In June 2017, the U.S. Supreme Court denied the RICO defendants’ petition for a Writ of Certiorari, rendering the New York judgment in favor of Chevron final.
Chevron and Texpet filed an arbitration claim in September 2009 against the Republic of Ecuador before an arbitral tribunal presiding inadministered by the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, under the Rules of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law. The claim allegesalleged violations of the Republic of Ecuador’s obligations under the United States–EcuadorStates-Ecuador Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT) and breaches of the settlement and release agreements between the Republic of Ecuador and Texpet (described above), which are investment

OnEcuador. Also in February 27, 2012, the Tribunal issued a Third Interim Award confirming its jurisdiction to hear Chevron's arbitrationChevron and Texpet’s claims. OnIn February 7, 2013, the Tribunal issued its Fourth Interim Award in which it declared that the Republic of Ecuador “hashad violated the First and Second Interim AwardsAwards. The Tribunal divided the merits phase of the arbitration into three phases. In September 2013, after the conclusion of Phase One, the Tribunal issued its First Partial Award, finding that the settlement agreements between Ecuador and Texpet applied to both Texpet and Chevron and released them from public environmental claims arising from the consortium’s operations, but did not preclude individual claims for personal harm. In August 2018, the Tribunal issued its Phase Two award, again in favor of Chevron and Texpet. The Tribunal unanimously held that the Lago Agrio judgment was procured through fraud, bribery and corruption and was based on public claims that Ecuador had settled and released. According to the Tribunal, the Ecuadorian judgment “violates international public policy” and “should not be recognized or enforced by the courts of other States.” The Tribunal found that: (i) Ecuador breached its obligations under the [BIT],settlement agreements releasing Texpet and its affiliates from public environmental claims; (ii) Ecuador committed a denial of justice under international law and violated the UNCITRAL RulesU.S.-Ecuador BIT due to the fraud and international lawcorruption in the Lago Agrio litigation; and (iii) Texpet satisfied its environmental remediation obligations through the remediation program that Ecuador supervised and approved. The Tribunal ordered Ecuador to: (a) take immediate steps to remove the status of enforceability from the Ecuadorian judgment; (b) take measures to “wipe out all the consequences” of Ecuador’s “internationally wrongful acts in regard to the finalizationEcuadorian judgment;” and enforcement subject to execution(c) compensate Chevron for any injuries resulting from the Ecuadorian judgment. The final Phase Three of the Lago Agrio Judgment within and outsidearbitration, at which damages for Chevron’s injuries will be determined, was set for hearing in March 2021. Ecuador including (but not limited to) Canada, Brazil and Argentina.” The Republic of Ecuador subsequently filed in the District Court of theThe Hague a request to set aside the Tribunal’s Interim Awards and theits First Partial Award, (described below), and onin January 20, 2016 the District Courtthat court denied the Republic'sEcuador’s request. On April 13, 2016, the Republic of Ecuador appealed the decision. OnIn July 18, 2017, the Appeals Court of the HagueNetherlands denied Ecuador’s appeal, and in April 2019, the Republic's appeal. On October 18, 2017,Supreme Court of the Republic appealedNetherlands upheld the decision of the Appeals Court of the Hagueand finally rejected Ecuador’s challenges to the Supreme Court of the Netherlands.
The Tribunal has divided the merits phase of the proceeding into three phases. On September 17, 2013, the Tribunal issuedTribunal’s Interim Awards and its First Partial Award from Phase One, finding that the settlement agreements between the Republic ofAward. In December 2018, Ecuador and Texpet applied to Texpet and Chevron, released Texpet and Chevron from claims based on "collective" or "diffuse" rights arising from Texpet's operationsfiled in the former concession area and precluded third parties from asserting collective/diffuse rights environmental claims relatingDistrict Court of The Hague a request to Texpet's operations inset aside the former concession area but did not preclude individual claims for personal harm. The Tribunal held a hearing on April 29-30, 2014, to address remaining issues relating to Phase One, and on March 12, 2015, it issued a nonbinding decision that the Lago Agrio plaintiffs' complaint, on its face, includes claims not barred by the settlement agreement between the Republic of Ecuador and Texpet. In the same decision, the Tribunal deferred toTribunal’s Phase Two remaining issues from Phase One, including whether the Republic of Ecuador breached the 1995 settlement agreement and the remedies that are available to Chevron and Texpet as a result of that breach. Phase Two issues were addressed at a hearing held in April and May 2015. The Tribunal has not set a date for Phase Three, the damages phase of the arbitration.Award.
Company's RICO ActionThrough a series of U.S. court proceedings initiated by Chevron to obtain discovery relating to the Lago Agrio litigation and the BIT arbitration, Chevron obtained evidence that it believes shows a pattern of fraud, collusion, corruption, and other misconduct on the part of several lawyers, consultants and others acting for the Lago Agrio plaintiffs. In February 2011, Chevron filed a civil lawsuit in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Lago Agrio plaintiffs and several of their lawyers, consultants and supporters, alleging violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act and other state laws. Through the civil lawsuit, Chevron sought relief that included a declaration that any judgment against Chevron in the Lago Agrio litigation is the result of fraud and other unlawful conduct and is therefore unenforceable. The trial commenced on October 15, 2013 and concluded on November 22, 2013. On March 4, 2014, the Federal District Court entered a judgment in favor of Chevron, prohibiting the defendants from seeking to enforce the Lago Agrio judgment in the United States and further prohibiting them from profiting from their illegal acts. The defendants appealed the Federal District Court's decision, and, on April 20, 2015, a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit heard oral arguments. On August 8, 2016, the Second Circuit issued a unanimous opinion affirming in full the judgment of the Federal District Court in favor of Chevron. On October 27, 2016, the Second Circuit denied the defendants' petitions for en banc rehearing of the opinion on their appeal. On March 27, 2017, two of the defendants filed a petition for a Writ of Certiorari to the United States Supreme Court. On June 19, 2017, the United States Supreme Court denied the defendants' petition for a Writ of Certiorari.
Management'sManagement’s Assessment The ultimate outcome of the foregoing matters, 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 Ecuadorian judgment, the 2008 engineer’s report on alleged damages and the September 2010 plaintiffs’ submission on alleged damages, management does not believe these documents havethe judgment 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).

The 2017 decline2019 decrease in income tax benefitexpense of $1,681, from a benefit of $1,729 in 2016 to a benefit of $48 in 2017,$3,024 is a result of the year-over-year increasedecrease in total income before income tax expense, which is primarily due to effects of higher crude oil pricesthe impairment and gains on asset sales primarilyproject write-off charges in Indonesia and Canada. In addition, the tax benefit for the year includes a provisional benefit of $2,020 from U.S. tax reform, which primarily reflects the remeasurement of U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities.2019. The company’s effective tax rate changed from 8028 percent in 20162018 to (0.5)49 percent in 2017.2019. The change in effective tax rate is primarily a consequence of the mix effect resulting from the absolute level of earnings or losses and whether they arose in higher or lower tax rate jurisdictions, including a tax charge related to cash repatriation and the 2017 impact of U.S. tax reform.
As noted above, U.S. tax reform resulted in the remeasurement of U.S. deferred tax assetsasset sales and liabilities. The final impact will not be known until the actual 2017 U.S. tax return is submitted in 2018, and this may result in a change to the provisional amounts that have been recognized.

Deferred tax liabilities at the end of 20172019 decreased by approximately $5,700$2,500 from year-end 2016.2018. The decrease was primarily related to property, plant and equipment temporary differences mainly due to the change in the enacted U.S. tax rate.
upstream asset impairments. Deferred tax assets decreased by approximately $2,300 in 2017. Decreases were mainly due to the change in the enacted U.S. tax rate and primarily impacted asset retirement obligations, employee benefits and tax loss carry forwards. The decrease was partially reduced by an increase in foreign tax credits arisingessentially unchanged from earnings in high-tax rate international jurisdictions, which was substantially offset by valuation allowances.year-end 2018.
The overall valuation allowance relates to deferred tax assets for U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards, tax loss carryforwards and temporary differences. ItThe valuation allowance reduces the deferred tax assets to amounts that are, in management’s assessment, more likely than not to be realized. At the end of 2017,2019, the company had tax loss carryforwards of approximately $16,102$13,419 and tax credit carryforwards of approximately $1,379,$1,058, primarily related to various international tax jurisdictions. Whereas some of these tax loss carryforwards do not have an expiration date, others expire at various times from 20182020 through 2034. U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards of $11,872$9,840 will expire between 20182020 and 2027.2029.

Enactment of U.S. tax reform imposed a one-time U.S. federal tax on the deemed repatriation ofIncome taxes are not accrued for unremitted earnings indefinitelyof international operations that have been or are intended to be reinvested abroad, which did not have a material impact on the company’s financial results.indefinitely. The indefinite reinvestment assertion continues to apply for the purpose of determining deferred tax liabilities for U.S. state and foreign withholding tax purposes.
U.S. state and foreign withholding taxes are not accrued for unremitted earnings of international operations that have been or are intended to be reinvested indefinitely. Undistributed earnings of international consolidated subsidiaries and affiliates for which no deferred income tax provision has been made for possible future remittances totaled approximately $57,300$52,500 at December 31, 2017.2019. This amount represents earnings reinvested as part of the company’s ongoing international business. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of state and foreign taxes that might be payable on the possible remittance of earnings that are intended to be reinvested indefinitely. The company does not anticipate incurring significant additional taxes on remittances of earnings that are not indefinitely reinvested.
Uncertain Income Tax Positions The company recognizes a tax benefit in the financial statements for an uncertain tax position only if management’s assessment is that the position is “more likely than not” (i.e., a likelihood greater than 50 percent) to be allowed by the tax jurisdiction based solely on the technical merits of the position. The term “tax position” in the accounting standards for income taxes refers to a position in a previously filed tax return or a position expected to be taken in a future tax return that is reflected in measuring current or deferred income tax assets and liabilities for interim or annual periods.

The increase in unrecognized tax benefits between December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2017 was primarily due to foreign tax credits associated with the deemed repatriation. The increase in unrecognized tax benefits related to these foreign tax credits had no impact on the effective tax rate since the change to the deferred tax asset was fully offset with a change to the valuation allowance. The resolution of numerous issues with various tax jurisdictions during the year also impacted the movement from December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2017.
Approximately 81 percent of the $4,828$4,987 of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2017,2019, would have an impact on the effective tax rate if subsequently recognized. Certain of these unrecognized tax benefits relate to tax carryforwards that may require a full valuation allowance at the time of any such recognition.
Tax positions for Chevron and its subsidiaries and affiliates are subject to income tax audits by many tax jurisdictions throughout the world. For the company’s major tax jurisdictions, examinations of tax returns for certain prior tax years had not been completed as of December 31, 2017.2019. For these jurisdictions, the latest years for which income tax examinations had been finalized were as follows: United States – 2011,2013, Nigeria – 2000, Australia – 2006, Angola – 20162009 and Kazakhstan – 2007.2012.
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 company’s 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, the company is unable to estimate the range of possible adjustments to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits.
On April 21, 2017, an adverse decision was issued by the full Federal Court on Australia regarding the interest rate to be applied on certain Chevron intercompany loans. On August 14, 2017, an agreement was reached with the Australian Taxation Office to settle this dispute. Management believes the agreed terms to be a reasonable resolution of the dispute, which did not have a material impact on the 2017 results of the company.
On the Consolidated Statement of Income, the company reports interest and penalties related to liabilities for uncertain tax positions as “Income tax expense.” As of December 31, 2017,2019, accruals of $178$30 for anticipated interest and penalty obligations were included on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, compared with accruals of $424$33 as of year-end 2016.2018. Income tax expense (benefit) associated with interest and penalties was $(161)$(3), $38$8 and $195$(161) in 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015,2017, respectively.

Redeemable long-term obligations consist primarily of tax-exempt variable-rate put bonds that are included as current liabilities because they become redeemable at the option of the bondholders during the year following the balance sheet date.
The company may periodically enter into interest rate swaps on a portion of its short-term debt. At December 31, 2017,2019, the company had no interest rate swaps on short-term debt.
At December 31, 2017,2019, the company had $10,000$9,750 in 364-day committed credit facilities with various major banks that enable the refinancing of short-term obligations on a long-term basis. The credit facilities consist of a 364-day facility which enables borrowing of up to $9,575 and allowsallow the company to convert any amounts outstanding into a term loan for a period of up to one year, and a $425 five-year facility expiring in December 2020. These facilities supportyear. This supports commercial paper borrowing and can also be used for general corporate purposes. The company’s 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 facilitiesfacility would be unsecured indebtedness at interest rates based on the London Interbank Offered Rate or an average of base lending rates published by specified banks and on terms reflecting the company’s strong credit rating. NoNaN borrowings were outstanding under these facilitiesthis facility at December 31, 2017.2019.
The company classified $10,000$9,750 and $9,000$9,900 of short-term debt as long-term at December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, respectively. Settlement of these obligations is not expected to require the use of working capital within one year, and the company has both the intent and the ability, as evidenced by committed credit facilities, to refinance them on a long-term basis.

Accounting for Suspended Exploratory Wells
The company continues to capitalize exploratory well costs after the completion of drilling when (a) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify completion as a producing well, and (b) the business unit is making sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. If either condition is not met or if the company 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.

Of the $3,395$2,827 of exploratory well costs capitalized for more than one year at December 31, 2017, $2,257 (17 projects)2019, $1,867 is related to 12 projects that had drilling activities underway or firmly planned for the near future. The $1,138$960 balance is related to 1510 projects in areas requiring a major capital expenditure before production could begin and for which additional drilling efforts were not underway or firmly planned for the near future. Additional drilling was not deemed necessary because the presence of hydrocarbons had already been established, and other activities were in process to enable a future decision on project development.
The projects for the $1,138$960 referenced above had the following activities associated with assessing the reserves and the projects’ economic viability: (a) $190 (two$256 (4 projects) – undergoing front-end engineering and design with final investment decision expected within four years; (b) $99 (one project) – development concept under review by government; (c) $826 (seven$704 (6 projects) – development alternatives under review; (d) $23 (five projects) – miscellaneous activities for projects with smaller amounts suspended.review. While progress was being made on all 3222 projects, the decision on the recognition of proved reserves under SEC rules in some cases may not occur for several years because of the complexity, scale and negotiations associated with the projects. More than half of these decisions are expected to occur in the next five years.
The $3,395$2,827 of suspended well costs capitalized for a period greater than one year as of December 31, 2017,2019, represents 158123 exploratory wells in 3222 projects. The tables below contain the aging of these costs on a well and project basis:

Awards under the Chevron Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) may take the form of, but are not limited to, stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and nonstock grants. From April 2004 through May 2023, no more than 260 million shares may be issued under the LTIP. For awards issued on or after May 29, 2013, no more than 50 million of those shares may be in a form other than a stock option, stock appreciation right or award requiring full payment for shares by the award recipient. For the major types of awards issued before January 1, 2017, the contractual terms vary between three years for the performance shares and restricted stock units, and 10 years for the stock options and stock appreciation rights. For awards issued after January 1, 2017, contractual terms vary between three years for the performance shares and special restricted stock units, 5five years for standard restricted stock units and 10 years for the stock options and stock appreciation rights. Forfeitures for performance shares, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights are recognized as they occur. Forfeitures for stock options are estimated using historical forfeiture data dating back to 1990.
The fair market values of stock options and stock appreciation rights granted in 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 20152017 were measured on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Note 2321
Employee Benefit Plans
The company 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 company’s other investment alternatives.
The company also sponsors other postretirement benefit (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 retirees share the costs. Beginning in 2017, medical coverage for Medicare-eligible retirees inFor the company’s main U.S. medical plan, is provided through a third-party private exchange. Thethe increase to the pre-Medicare 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.
The company recognizes the overfunded or underfunded status of each of its defined benefit pension and OPEB plans as an asset or liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The funded status of the company’s pension and OPEB plans for 20172019 and 20162018 follows:

benefits under the plans. These losses are amortized to the extent they exceed 10 percent of the higher of the projected benefit obligation or market-related value of plan assets. The amount subject to amortization is determined on a plan-by-plan basis. During 2018,2020, the company estimates actuarial losses of $303, $30$385, $46 and $15$3 will be amortized from “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” for U.S. pension, international pension and OPEB plans, respectively. In addition, the company estimates an additional $334$320 will be recognized from “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” during 20182020 related to lump-sum settlement costs from the main U.S. pension plans.
The weighted average amortization period for recognizing prior service costs (credits) recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” at December 31, 2017,2019, was approximately 53 and 96 years for U.S. and international pension plans, respectively, and 98 years for OPEB plans. During 2018,2020, the company estimates prior service (credits) costs of $2, $11$10 and $(28)

Expected Return on Plan Assets The company’s estimated long-term rates of return on pension assets are driven primarily by actual historical asset-class returns, an assessment of expected future performance, advice from external actuarial firms and the incorporation of specific asset-class risk factors. Asset allocations are periodically updated using pension plan asset/liability studies, and the company’s estimated long-term rates of return are consistent with these studies.
For 2017,2019, the company used an expected long-term rate of return of 6.75 percent for U.S. pension plan assets, which account for 68 percent of the company’s pension plan assets. In 2016,both 2018 and 2017, the company used a long-term rate of return of 7.256.75 percent for this plan, and in 2015, 7.50 percent.these plans.
The market-related value of assets of the main U.S. pension plan used in the determination of pension expense was based on the market values in the three months preceding the year-end measurement date. Management considers the three-month time period long enough to minimize the effects of distortions from day-to-day market volatility and still be contemporaneous to the end of the year. For other plans, market value of assets as of year-end is used in calculating the pension expense.
Discount Rate The discount rate assumptions used to determine the U.S. and international pension and OPEB plan obligations and expense reflect the rate at which benefits could be effectively settled, and are equal to the equivalent single rate resulting from yield curve analysis. This analysis considered the projected benefit payments specific to the company'scompany’s plans and the yields on high-quality bonds. The projected cash flows were discounted to the valuation date using the yield curve for the main U.S. pension and OPEB plans. The effective discount rates derived from this analysis at the end of 20172019 were 3.53.1 percent for the main U.S. pension plan and 3.63.1 percent for the main U.S. OPEB plan. The discount rates for these plans at the end of 20162018 were 3.94.2 and 4.14.3 percent, respectively, while in 20152017 they were 4.03.5 and 4.53.6 percent for these plans, respectively.
Beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, the company changed the method used to estimate the service and interest cost associated with the company's main U.S. pension and OPEB plans. Under the new method, these costs are estimated by applying spot rates along the yield curve to the relevant projected cash flows. In prior years, the service and interest costs were estimated utilizing a single weighted-average discount rate derived from the yield curve used to measure the defined benefit obligations at the beginning of the year.
Other Benefit Assumptions Assumed health care cost-trend rates can have a significant effect on the amounts reported for retiree health care costs. For the measurement of accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2017,2019, for the main U.S. OPEB plan, the assumed health care cost-trend rates start with 7.46.8 percent in 20182020 and gradually decline to 4.5 percent for 2025 and beyond. For this measurement at December 31, 2016,2018, the assumed health care cost-trend rates
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts
started with 6.97.2 percent in 20172019 and gradually declined to 4.5 percent for 2025 and beyond. The annual increase to the company's pre-Medicare medical contributions for the main U.S. plan upon retirement is capped at 4 percent. A 1-percentage-point change in the assumed health care cost-trend rates would have the following effects on worldwide plans:

The primary investment objectives of the pension plans are to achieve the highest rate of total return within prudent levels of risk and liquidity, to diversify and mitigate potential downside risk associated with the investments, and to provide adequate liquidity for benefit payments and portfolio management.
The company’s U.S. and U.K. pension plans comprise 9092 percent of the total pension assets. Both the U.S. and U.K. plans have an Investment Committee that regularly meets during the year to review the asset holdings and their returns. To assess the plans’ investment performance, long-term asset allocation policy benchmarks have been established.
For the primary U.S. pension plan, the company's Benefit Plancompany’s Investment Committee has established the following approved asset allocation ranges: Equities 30–60 percent, Fixed Income and Cash 20–6540 percent, Real Estate 0–15 percent, and Alternative Investments 0–15 percent and Cash 0–25 percent. For the U.K. pension plan, the U.K. Board of Trustees has established the following asset allocation guidelines: Equities 30–5010–30 percent, Fixed Income and Cash 35–7055–85 percent, and Real Estate 5–15 percent, and Cash 0–5 percent. The other significant international pension plans also have established maximum and minimum asset allocation ranges that vary by plan. Actual asset allocation within approved ranges is based on a variety of factors, including market conditions and illiquidity constraints. To mitigate concentration and other risks, assets are invested across multiple asset classes with active investment managers and passive index funds.
The company does not prefund its OPEB obligations.
Cash Contributions and Benefit Payments In 2017,2019, the company contributed $728$1,096 and $252$266 to its U.S. and international pension plans, respectively. In 2018,2020, the company expects contributions to be approximately $700$1,250 to its U.S. plans and $250 to its international pension plans. Actual contribution amounts are dependent upon investment returns, changes in pension obligations, regulatory environments, tax law changes and other economic factors. Additional funding may ultimately be required if investment returns are insufficient to offset increases in plan obligations.
The company anticipates paying OPEB benefits of approximately $174 in 2018; $1512020; $168 was paid in 2017.2019.
The following benefit payments, which include estimated future service, are expected to be paid by the company in the next 10 years:

Benefit Plan Trusts Prior to its acquisition by Chevron, Texaco established a benefit plan trust for funding obligations under some of its benefit plans. At year-end 2017,2019, the trust contained 14.2 million shares of Chevron treasury stock. The trust will sell the shares or use the dividends from the shares to pay benefits only to the extent that the company does not pay such benefits. The company intends to continue to pay its obligations under the benefit plans. The trustee will vote the shares held in the trust as instructed by the trust’s beneficiaries. The shares held in the trust are not considered outstanding for earnings-per-share purposes until distributed or sold by the trust in payment of benefit obligations.
Prior to its acquisition by Chevron, Unocal established various grantor trusts to fund obligations under some of its benefit plans, including the deferred compensation and supplemental retirement plans. At December 31, 20172019 and 2016,2018, trust assets of $35 and $35,$34, respectively, were invested primarily in interest-earning accounts.
Employee Incentive Plans The Chevron Incentive Plan is an annual cash bonus plan for eligible employees that links awards to corporate, business unit and individual performance in the prior year. Charges to expense for cash bonuses were $826, $1,048 and $936 $662in 2019, 2018 and $690 in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Chevron also has the LTIP for officers and other regular salaried employees of the company and its subsidiaries who hold positions of significant responsibility. Awards under the LTIP consist of stock options and other share-based compensation that are described in Note 22,20, beginning on page 81.80.

Note 2522
Other Contingencies and Commitments
Income Taxes The company calculates its income tax expense and liabilities quarterly. These liabilities generally are subject to audit and are not finalized with the individual taxing authorities until several years after the end of the annual period for which income taxes have been calculated. Refer to Note 18,15, beginning on page 75,74, for a discussion of the periods for which tax returns have been audited for the company’s major tax jurisdictions and a discussion for all tax jurisdictions of the differences between the amount of tax benefits recognized in the financial statements and the amount taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
As discussed in Note 18, beginning on page 75, the company received an adverse decision on April 21, 2017, regarding the interest rate to be applied on certain Chevron intercompany loans. On August 14, 2017, an agreement was reached with the Australian Taxation Office to settle this dispute. Management believes the agreed terms to be a reasonable resolution of the dispute, which did not have a material impact on the 2017 results of the company.
Settlement of open tax years, as well as other tax issues in countries where the company conducts its businesses, are 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 hasprovisions have been made for income and franchise taxes for all years under examination or subject to future examination.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts
GuaranteesThe company has two2 guarantees to equity affiliates totaling $1,082.$704. Of this amount, $712$412 is associated with a financing arrangement with an equity affiliate. Over the approximate 4-year2-year remaining term of this guarantee, the maximum amount will be reduced as payments are made by the affiliate. The remaining amount of $370$292 is associated with certain payments under a terminal use agreement entered into by an equity affiliate. Over the approximate 10-year8-year remaining term of this guarantee, the maximum guarantee amount will be reduced as certain fees are paid by the affiliate. There are numerous cross-indemnity agreements with the affiliate and the other partners to permit recovery of amounts paid under the guarantee. Chevron has recorded no liability for either guarantee.
Indemnifications 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, which had been reached at December 31, 2009. Under the indemnification agreement, after reaching the $200 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.
Long-Term Unconditional Purchase Obligations and Commitments, Including Throughput and Take-or-Pay AgreementsThe company and its subsidiaries have certain contingent liabilities with respect to long-term unconditional purchase obligations and commitments, including throughput and take-or-pay agreements, some of which may 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 company’s business. The aggregate approximate amounts of required payments under these various commitments are: 2018 – $1,402; 2019 – $1,367; 2020 – $1,027;$900; 2021 – $920;$1,100; 2022 – $555;$1,100; 2023 – $1,200; 2024 – $1,200; 2025 and after – $2,566.$7,200. A portion of these commitments may ultimately be shared with project partners. Total payments under the agreements were approximately $800 in 2019, $1,400 in 2018 and $1,300 in 2017, $1,3002017.
As part of the implementation of ASU 2016-02, the company assessed some contracts, previously incorporated into the unconditional purchase obligations disclosure, as operating leases in 2016 and $1,900 in 2015.2019.
EnvironmentalThe 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 operating, closed and divested sites, including, but not limited to, federal Superfund sites and analogous sites under state laws, refineries, chemical plants, marketing facilities, crude oil fields, and mining sites.
Although the company has provided for known environmental obligations that are probable and reasonably estimable, it is likely that the company will continue to incur additional liabilities. The amount of additional 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 company’s liability in proportion to other responsible parties, and the extent to which such costs are recoverable from third parties. These future costs may be material to results of operations in the period in which they are recognized, but the company does not expect these costs will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or liquidity.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts
Chevron’s environmental reserve as of December 31, 2017,2019, was $1,429.$1,234. Included in this balance was $269$266 related to remediation activities at approximately 146145 sites for which the company had been identified as a potentially responsible party under the provisions of the federal Superfund law or analogous state laws which provide for joint and several liability for all responsible parties. Any future actions by regulatory agencies to require Chevron to assume other potentially responsible parties’ costs at designated hazardous waste sites are not expected to have a material effect on the company’s results of operations, consolidated financial position or liquidity.
Of the remaining year-end 20172019 environmental reserves balance of $1,160, $781$968, $667 is related to the company’s U.S. downstream operations, $38$28 to its international downstream operations, $340$272 to upstream operations and $1 to other businesses. Liabilities at all sites were primarily associated with the company’s plans and activities to remediate soil or groundwater contamination or both.
The company manages environmental liabilities under specific sets of regulatory requirements, which in the United States include the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and various state and local regulations. No single remediation site at year-end 20172019 had a recorded liability that was material to the company’s results of operations, consolidated financial position or liquidity.
Refer to Note 263 on page 89 for a discussion of the company’s asset retirement obligations.
Other ContingenciesGovernmental and other entities in California and other jurisdictions have filed legal proceedings against fossil fuel producing companies, including Chevron, purporting to seek legal and equitable relief to address alleged impacts of climate change. Further such proceedings are likely to be filed by other parties. The unprecedented legal theories set forth in these proceedings entail the possibility of damages liability and injunctions against the production of all fossil fuels that, while we believe remote, could have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations and financial condition. Management believes that these proceedings are legally and factually meritless and detract from constructive efforts to address the important policy issues presented by climate change, and will vigorously defend against such proceedings.
NotesChevron has interests in Venezuelan crude oil production assets operated by independent equity affiliates. During 2019, net oil equivalent production in Venezuela averaged 35,000 barrels per day, 3,000 barrels per day of which was upgraded to synthetic crude. Synthetic crude production in 2019 was impacted by operating conditions, including a shutdown of the Petropiar heavy oil upgrader for part of the year. The operating environment in Venezuela has been deteriorating for some time. In January 2019, the United States government issued sanctions against the Venezuelan national oil company, Petroleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PdVSA), which is the company’s partner in the equity affiliates. The company is conducting its business pursuant to general licenses and guidance issued coincident with the sanctions. In late July 2019, the United States government renewed General License 8A with the issuance of General License 8B, subsequently superseded by General License 8C issued on August 5, 2019. The authorization provided to Chevron under General License 8C was extended by General License 8D on October 21, 2019 and General License 8E issued by the United States government on January 17, 2020. General License 8E enables the company to continue to meet its contractual obligations in Venezuela with PdVSA and is effective until April 22, 2020.
At December 31, 2019, the carrying value of the company’s investments was approximately $2,650 and for the year ended December 31, 2019, the company recognized losses of $54 for its share of net income from the equity affiliates, and for demurrage, foreign exchange losses and other costs incurred in support of the company’s operations in Venezuela. Future events could result in the environment in Venezuela becoming more challenged, which could lead to increased business disruption and volatility in the associated financial results. The company continues to evaluate the carrying value of its Venezuelan investments in line with its accounting policies. Future events related to the Consolidated Financial Statementscompany’s activities in Venezuela may result in significant impacts on the company’s results of operation in subsequent periods. Please see Note 13, “Investments and Advances”, on page 71 for further information on the company’s investments in equity affiliates in Venezuela.
Millions of dollars, except per-share amounts
Other ContingenciesChevron receives claims from and submits claims to customers; trading partners; joint venture partners; U.S. federal, state and local regulatory bodies; governments; contractors; insurers; suppliers; and individuals. The amounts of these claims, individually and in the aggregate, may be significant and take lengthy periods to resolve, and may result in gains or losses in future periods.
The company and its affiliates also continue to review and analyze their operations and may close, abandon,retire, 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 significant gains or losses in future periods.

Note 2623
Asset Retirement Obligations
The company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (ARO) both as an asset and a liability when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset and the liability can be reasonably estimated. The legal obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional, even though uncertainty may exist about the timing and/or method of settlement that may be beyond the company’s control. This uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement is factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists to reasonably estimate fair value. Recognition of the ARO includes: (1) the present value of a liability and offsetting asset, (2) the subsequent accretion of that liability and depreciation of the asset, and (3) the periodic review of the ARO liability estimates and discount rates.
AROs are primarily recorded for the company’s crude oil and natural gas producing assets. No significant AROs associated with any legal obligations to retire downstream long-lived assets have been recognized, as indeterminate settlement dates for the asset retirements prevent estimation of the fair value of the associated ARO. The company performs periodic reviews of its downstream long-lived assets for any changes in facts and circumstances that might require recognition of a retirement obligation.
The following table indicates the changes to the company’s before-tax asset retirement obligations in 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015:2017:

Revenue
Revenue from contracts with customers is presented in “Sales and other operating revenue” along with some activity that is accounted for outside the scope of Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 606, which is not material to this line, on the Consolidated Statement of Income. Purchases and sales of inventory with the same counterparty that are entered into in contemplation of one another (including buy/sell arrangements) are combined and recorded on a net basis and reported in “purchased crude oil and products” on the Consolidated Statement of Income. Refer to Note 12 beginning on page 68 for additional information on the company’s segmentation of revenue.
Receivables related to revenue from contracts with customers are included in “Accounts and notes receivable, net” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The net balance of these receivables was $9,247 and $10,046 at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Other items included in “Accounts and notes receivable, net” represent amounts due from partners for their share of joint venture operating and project costs and amounts due from others, primarily related to derivatives, leases, buy/sell arrangements and product exchanges, which are accounted for outside the scope of ASC 606.
Contract assets and related costs are reflected in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” and contract liabilities are reflected in “Accrued liabilities” and “Deferred credits and other noncurrent obligations” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Amounts for these items are not material to the company’s financial position.

Reserves Governance The company has adopted a comprehensive reserves and resource classification system modeled after a system developed and approved by a number of organizations including the Society of Petroleum Engineers, the World Petroleum Congress and the American Association of Petroleum Geologists. The systemcompany classifies recoverable hydrocarbons into six categories based on their status at the time of reporting – three deemed commercial and three potentially recoverable. Within the commercial classification are proved reserves and two categories of unproved reserves: probable and possible. The potentially recoverable categories are also referred to as contingent resources. For reserves estimates to be classified as proved, they must meet all SEC and company standards.
Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities that geoscience and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be economically producible in the future from known reservoirs under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations. Net proved reserves exclude royalties and interests owned by others and reflect contractual arrangements and royalty obligations in effect at the time of the estimate.
Proved reserves are classified as either developed or undeveloped. Proved developed reserves are the quantities expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Proved undeveloped reserves are the quantities expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion.
Due to the inherent uncertainties and the limited nature of reservoir data, estimates of reserves are subject to change as additional information becomes available.
Proved reserves are estimated by company asset teams composed of earth scientists and engineers. As part of the internal control process related to reserves estimation, the company maintains a Reserves Advisory Committee (RAC) that is chaired by the Manager of Global Reserves, an organization that is separate from the Upstream operating organization. The Manager

of Global Reserves has more than 30 years’ experience working in the oil and gas industry and holds both undergraduate and graduate degrees in geoscience. His experience includes various technical and management roles in providing reserve and resource estimates in support of major capital and exploration projects, and more than 10 years of managingoverseeing oil and gas

reserves processes. He has been named a Distinguished Lecturer by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists and is an active member of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, the SEPM Society of Sedimentary Geologists and the Society of Petroleum Engineers.
All RAC members are degreed professionals, each with more than 10 years of experience in various aspects of reserves estimation relating to reservoir engineering, petroleum engineering, earth science or finance. The members are knowledgeable in SEC guidelines for proved reserves classification and receive annual training on the preparation of reserves estimates.
The RAC has the following primary responsibilities: establish the policies and processes used within the operating units to estimate reserves; provide independent reviews and oversight of the business units’ recommended reserves estimates and changes; confirm that proved reserves are recognized in accordance with SEC guidelines; determine that reserve volumes are calculated using consistent and appropriate standards, procedures and technology; and maintain the GlobalChevron Corporation Reserves Manual, which provides standardized procedures used corporatewide for classifying and reporting hydrocarbon reserves.
During the year, the RAC is represented in meetings with each of the company’s upstream business units to review and discuss reserve changes recommended by the various asset teams. Major changes are also reviewed with the company’s Strategy and Planning Committee, whose members includesenior leadership team including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. The company’s annual reserve activity is also reviewed with the Board of Directors. If major changes to reserves were to occur between the annual reviews, those matters would also be discussed with the Board.
RAC subteams also conduct in-depth reviews during the year of many of the fields that have large proved reserves quantities. These reviews include an examination of the proved-reserve records and documentation of their compliance with the GlobalChevron Corporation Reserves Manual.In addition, third-party engineering consultants are used to supplement the company’s own reserves estimation controls and procedures, including through the use of third-party audits of selected oil and gas assets.Manual.
Technologies Used in Establishing Proved Reserves Additions In 2017,2019, additions to Chevron’s proved reserves were based on a wide range of geologic and engineering technologies. Information generated from wells, such as well logs, wire line sampling, production and pressure testing, fluid analysis, and core analysis, was integrated with seismic data, regional geologic studies, and information from analogous reservoirs to provide “reasonably certain” proved reserves estimates. Both proprietary and commercially available analytic tools, including reservoir simulation, geologic modeling and seismic processing, have been used in the interpretation of the subsurface data. These technologies have been utilized extensively by the company in the past, and the company believes that they provide a high degree of confidence in establishing reliable and consistent reserves estimates.
Proved Undeveloped Reserves At the end of 2017,2019, proved undeveloped reserves totaled 4.34.0 billion barrels of oil-equivalent (BOE), an increasea decrease of 721641 million BOE from year-end 2016.2018. The increasedecrease was due to 736685 million BOE in revisions, the transfer of 593 million BOE to proved developed and 31 million BOE in sales, partially offset by 635 million BOE in extensions and discoveries, 366 million BOE in revisions, 3926 million BOE in acquisitions and 57 million BOE in improved recovery, partially offset by the transfer of 419 million BOE to proved developed and 6 million BOE in sales.recovery. A major portion of this reserve increase isthe reserves revisions are attributed to the company's activitiescompany’s decision to reduce planned developments and evaluate strategic alternatives, including divestment scenarios for it’s acreage in the Midland and Delaware basins.Appalachian region.
During 2017,2019, investments totaling approximately $9.1$10.5 billion in oil and gas producing activities and about $0.1 billion in non-oil and gas producing activities were expended to advance the development of proved undeveloped reserves. In Asia, expenditures during the year totaled approximately $4.0$5.3 billion, primarily related to development projects of the TCO affiliate in Kazakhstan. The United States accounted for about $3.3 billion related primarily to various development activities in the Gulf of Mexico and the Midland and Delaware basins. In Africa, about $0.7$0.5 billion was expended on various offshore development and natural gas projects in Nigeria, Angola and Republic of Congo. Development activities in Canada, Brazil and Argentina were primarily responsible for about $0.8$1.0 billion of expenditures in Other Americas.
Reserves that remain proved undeveloped for five or more years are a result of several factors that affect optimal project development and execution, such as the complex nature of the development project in adverse and remote locations, physical limitations of infrastructure or plant capacities that dictate project timing, compression projects that are pending reservoir pressure declines, and contractual limitations that dictate production levels.
At year-end 2017,2019, the company held approximately 2.32.1 billion BOE of proved undeveloped reserves that have remained undeveloped for five years or more. The majority of these reserves are in three locations where the company has a proven track record of developing major projects. In Australia, approximately 600700 million BOE have remained undeveloped for five years or more related to the Gorgon and Wheatstone projects. The company completed construction of liquefaction and other facilities to develop this natural gas. Further field development to convert the remaining proved

In Africa, approximately 400300 million BOE have remained undeveloped for five years or more, primarily due to facility constraints at various fields and infrastructure associated with the Escravos

At TCO, further field development to convert the remaining proved undeveloped reserves is scheduled to occur in line with reservoir depletion.depletion and facility constraints.
Annually, the company assesses whether any changes have occurred in facts or circumstances, such as changes to development plans, regulations or government policies, that would warrant a revision to reserve estimates. In 2017, increases2019, decreases in commodity prices positivelynegatively impacted the economic limits of oil and gas properties, resulting in proved reserve increases,decreases, and negativelypositively impacted proved reserves due to entitlement effects. The year-end reserves volumesquantities have been updated for these circumstances and significant changes have been discussed in the appropriate reserves sections. For 2017, this assessment did not result in any material changes in reserves classified as proved undeveloped. Over the past three years, the ratio of proved undeveloped reserves to total proved reserves has ranged between 3235 percent and 38 percent. The consistent completion of major capital projects has kept the ratio in a narrow range over this time period.
Proved Reserve Quantities For the three years ending December 31, 2017,2019, the pattern of net reserve changes shown in the following tables are not necessarily indicative of future trends. Apart from acquisitions, the company’s ability to add proved reserves can be affected by events and circumstances that are outside the company’s control, such as delays in government permitting, partner approvals of development plans, changes in oil and gas prices, OPEC constraints, geopolitical uncertainties, and civil unrest.
At December 31, 2017,2019, proved reserves for the company were 11.711.4 billion BOE. The company’s estimated net proved reserves of liquids including crude oil, condensate natural gas liquids and synthetic oil for the years 2015, 20162017, 2018 and 20172019 are shown in the table on page 98.99. The company’s estimated net proved reserves of natural gas liquids are shown on page 100 and the company’s estimated net proved reserves of natural gas are shown on page 99.101.
Noteworthy changes in liquidscrude oil, condensate and synthetic oil proved reserves for 20152017 through 20172019 are discussed below and shown in the table on the following page:
Revisions In 2015, entitlement effects and improved performance were responsible for the163 million barrel increase in the TCO affiliate in Kazakhstan. In Asia, entitlement effects and drilling performance across numerous assets resulted in the 164 million barrel increase. Improved field performance at various Nigerian fields, including Agbami, was primarily responsible for the 60 million barrel increase in Africa. Synthetic oil reserves in Canada increased by 80 million barrels, primarily due to entitlement effects.
In 2016, entitlement effects were mainly responsible for the 64 million barrel increase in the TCO affiliate in Kazakhstan. Improved field performance at various Gulf of Mexico fields, including Jack/St Malo, and in the San Joaquin Valley were primarily responsible for the 109 million barrel increase in the United States. In Asia, entitlement effects, drilling and improved performance across numerous assets resulted in the 50 million barrel increase.
In 2017, improved field performance at various Gulf of Mexico fields, including Jack/St Malo and Tahiti, and in the Midland and Delaware basins were primarily responsible for the 280209 million barrel increase in the United States. Improved field performance at various fields, including Agbami and Sonam in Nigeria, were responsible for the 7973 million barrel increase in Africa. Synthetic oil reserves in Canada decreased by 42 million barrels, primarily due to entitlement effects. In the TCO affiliate in Kazakhstan, entitlement effects were mainly responsible for the 5352 million barrel decrease.
Improved Recovery In 2016,2018, improved recovery increased reserves by 293 million barrels, primarily due to the Future Growth Project in the TCO affiliate in Kazakhstan.
Extensionsfield performance at various Gulf of Mexico fields and Discoveries In 2015, extensions and discoveries in the Midland and Delaware basins were primarily responsible for the 137121 million barrel increase in the United States. Improved field performance at various fields, including Agbami in Nigeria and Moho-Bilondo in the Republic of Congo, were responsible for the 61 million barrel increase in Africa. Reserves in Other Americas increased by 59 million barrels, primarily due to improved field performance at the Hebron field in Canada. In Asia, improved performance across numerous assets resulted in the 37 million barrel increase.
In 2016, extensions and discoveries2019, portfolio optimizations, where future drilling in various fields in the Midland and Delaware basins is being targeted away from reservoirs with higher gas-to-oil ratios and lower execution efficiencies, and planned divestments in the Appalachian basin, were primarily responsible for the 131153 million barrel decrease in the United States. Operational issues with the Petropiar upgrader in Venezuela resulted in a decrease in reserves of synthetic oil of 126 million barrels and an increase of crude oil and condensate reserves of 105 million barrels. Reservoir management and entitlement effects were mainly responsible for 75 million barrels increase in the TCO affiliate in Kazakhstan. Improved field performance at various fields, including Moho-Bilondo in the Republic of Congo, Mafumeria in Angola, and Sonam in Nigeria, were responsible for the 42 million barrel increase in the United States.Africa.
Extensions and Discoveries In 2017, extensions and discoveries in the Midland and Delaware basins and the Gulf of Mexico were primarily responsible for the 458323 million barrel increase in the United States. Extensions and discoveries in the Duvernay Shale in Canada were primarily responsible for the 7463 million barrel increase in Other Americas.
In 2018, extensions and discoveries in the Midland and Delaware basins were primarily responsible for the 359 million barrel increase in the United States. Extensions and discoveries in the Duvernay Shale in Canada and Loma Campana in Argentina were primarily responsible for the 31 million barrel increase in Other Americas.

Noteworthy changes in natural gas proved reserves for 20152017 through 20172019 are discussed below and shown in the table above:
Revisions In 2015, positive drilling performance at Wheatstone and Gorgon was responsible for the 974 BCF increase in Australia. Net revisions of 480 BCF in Asia were primarily due to improved field performance in Thailand and to entitlement effects and improved performance in Kazakhstan. The majority of the net decrease of 435 BCF in Other Americas was due to the deferral of the infill drilling and compression projects as well as drilling results in Trinidad and Tobago. The 218 BCF increase for the TCO affiliate was due to entitlement effects and improved performance.
In 2016, development activities primarily at Wheatstone were responsible for the 853 BCF increase in Australia. Net revisions of 443 BCF in Asia were primarily due to improved field performance in China and Thailand.
In 2017, reservoir performance and new seismic data in the greater Gorgon area were primarily responsible for the 1.5 TCF increase in Australia. Improved performance in the Midland and Delaware basins were primarily responsible for the 670 BCF increase in the United States. The Sonam Field in Nigeria was primarily responsible for the 184 BCF increase in Africa.
ExtensionsIn 2018, reservoir performance, well test and Discoveries In 2015, extensionssurveillance data at Wheatstone and discoveries of 659 BCFthe greater Gorgon area were responsible for the 1.0 TCF increase in Australia. The Bibiyana Field in Bangladesh and the United StatesPattani Field in Thailand were primarily responsible for the 347 BCF increase in the Appalachian region andAsia. Improved performance in the Midland and Delaware basins.
In 2016, extensions and discoveries of 388basins were primarily responsible for the 258 BCF increase in the United StatesStates.
In 2019, strong performances at Wheatstone and the greater Gorgon areas were primarilymainly responsible for 1.7 TCF increase in Australia. In the Appalachian regionTCO affiliate in Kazakhstan, reservoir management and entitlement effects were mainly responsible for 223 BCF increase. Portfolio optimizations and low price realizations in various fields of the Midland and Delaware basins.basins and planned divestments in the Appalachian basin, were mainly responsible for the 2.6 TCF decrease in the United States.
Extensions and Discoveries In 2017, extensions and discoveries of 1.4 TCF in the United States were primarily in the Appalachian region and the Midland and Delaware basins. Extensions and discoveries in the Duvernay Shale in Canada were primarily responsible for the 319 BCF increase in Other Americas.
In 2018, extensions and discoveries of 1.6 TCF in the United States were primarily in the Appalachian region and the Midland and Delaware basins.
In 2019, extensions and discoveries of 1.0 TCF in the United States were primarily in the Midland and Delaware basins.
Supplemental Information on Oil and Gas Producing Activities - Unaudited
Sales In 2016, sales of 544 BCF in the United States were primarily in the Gulf of Mexico shelf, Michigan and the midcontinent region.
In 2017, sales of 177 BCF in the United States were primarily from the Midland and Delaware basins. Sale of the company'scompany’s interests in Trinidad and Tobago was primarily responsible for the 129 BCF decrease in Other Americas.
In 2019, sales of 240 BCF in Europe were in the United Kingdom and Denmark.
Table VI - Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Related to Proved Oil and Gas Reserves
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is calculated in accordance with SEC and FASB requirements. This includes using the average of first-day-of-the-month oil and gas prices for the 12-month period prior to the end of the reporting period, estimated future development and production costs assuming the continuation of existing economic conditions, estimated costs for asset retirement obligations (includes costs to retire existing wells and facilities in addition to those future wells and facilities necessary to produce proved undeveloped reserves), and estimated future income taxes based on appropriate statutory tax rates. Discounted future net cash flows are calculated using 10 percent mid-period discount factors. Estimates of proved-reserve quantities are imprecise and change over time as new information becomes available. Probable and possible reserves, which may become proved in the future, are excluded from the calculations. The valuation requires assumptions as to the timing and amount of future development and production costs. The calculations are made as of December 31 each year and do not represent management’s estimate of the company’s future cash flows or value of its oil and gas reserves. In the following table, the caption “Standardized Measure Net Cash Flows” refers to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows.
