Section 2 – Resource Extraction Issuer Disclosure
Item 2.01 Resource Extraction Issuer Disclosure and Report
(a) Required Disclosure.
Section 13(q) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 13q-1 and Form SD promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Resource Extraction Payment Rules”) require resource extraction issuers to disclose payments made to the U.S. federal government or a foreign government (each, a “government” and collectively, “governments”) for the purpose of the commercial development of oil, natural gas, or minerals. In accordance with the Resource Extraction Payment Rules, this Form SD covers such payments made by Chevron Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries1 (collectively, “Chevron”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Terms and phrases used but not defined in this Form SD have the meanings provided under the Resource Extraction Payment Rules.
Disclosure of Payments by Resource Extraction Issuers.
The specified payment disclosure required is included in Exhibit 99.1 to this Form SD.
Payments are reported on a cash basis in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency payments are converted using the exchange rate that existed at the time the payment was made.
Taxes are reported net of all refunds received, if any, during the reporting year and include property taxes directly associated with producing or exploration properties and withholding taxes assessed on the income earned from extractive activities. Amounts reported also include payments made by a government on behalf of Chevron as part of a tax-paid production sharing contract (“PSC”).
Production entitlement refers to a government’s share of production as defined in a PSC, as well as a state-owned company’s share of production as a working interest holder within its home country net of the cash funding provided to cover capital and operating expenditures. A state-owned company that is involved in projects outside of its home country is not considered a government for purposes of the Resource Extraction Payment Rules. Production entitlements are reported based on their contractual value, where applicable, or if no contractual value, based on their fair value. In a tax-paid PSC in which a government settles Chevron’s tax obligation from its own share of
1 As used in this report, the term “Chevron” and such terms as “the company,” “the corporation,” “our,” “we,” “us” and "its" may refer to Chevron Corporation, one or more of its consolidated subsidiaries, or all of them taken as a whole, but unless stated otherwise they do not include “affiliates” of Chevron — i.e., those companies accounted for by the equity method (generally owned 50 percent or less) or non-equity method investments. All of these terms are used for convenience only and are not intended as a precise description of any of the separate companies, each of which manages its own affairs.
production entitlements, such amount is netted from the reported production entitlement and reported as a tax payment.
For fully integrated projects that include both extractive and non-extractive activities, payments to governments are disclosed for the projects in their entirety in such cases where it is not possible to disaggregate between the extractive and non-extractive components of the payments.
Because the scope and basis for preparation of this Form SD is in accordance with the Resource Extraction Payment Rules, amounts reported in this Form SD may be different from disclosures in Chevron’s other publicly available financial reports, including those found within Chevron’s periodic reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
(b) Delayed Reporting.
As permitted by Item 2.01(b)(1) of Form SD, Chevron delayed the disclosure of payments made in 2023 related to certain exploratory activities from the Form SD submitted for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. These payments have been included in Exhibit 99.1 to this Form SD.
