Chevron's Hess Acquisition Boosts Q3 Output Beyond Expectations

Chevron's third-quarter oil production rose 16% to 2 million barrels per day, driven by Hess acquisition and operations in the Permian Basin, Gulf of Mexico, and Kazakhstan.

  • On Friday, Chevron Corporation reported third-quarter results that beat Wall Street estimates, driven by record production after acquiring Hess Corporation.
  • Chevron said higher output came from the Hess acquisition, the Permian Basin, Gulf of Mexico and Kazakhstan, but earnings declined partly due to a $3540 million loss on transaction costs and lower oil prices over the past year.
  • Chevron said adjusted EPS of $1.85 beat $1.71 expected, and revenue of $49.73 billion exceeded $49.01 billion forecasted.
  • Market trading reacted to the earnings beat and refining strength, with Chevron stock jumping 2.4% and downstream U.S. refining profits rising over 300% to $638 million.
  • On a $316 billion market capitalization, Chevron trades at about 23.5 times current-year earnings, but analysts say the stock looks like a sell absent a surge in oil prices.
