Oh, it is (San Ramon) but CRC is the largest and they have “transitioned” to carbon-free energy.
Chevron’s E&P has been moved to Venezuela.
And that whole “cluster” is interesting because VZA’s crude is heavy (less gasoline per barrel) and sulfurous (US refiners can’t use it).
Overall...no sympathy from me for Chevron.

cut all-electric lines that lead INTO California, since they pull power from other states.
Let them suffer, they voted for it.
That’s much more honest, which is rare for a democommie. Must have been an accident.
Not here in CaCaLand. Courts are also corrupted. When the same Aholes launched the BulletTrain scam there was a condition that a set % of $$ had to be invested from private sources. No where near that was achieved so folks took the issue to court. Court ruled that the condition was not important.
