Chevron bets $7B on Venezuela as CEO warns global oil reserves are depleted.

Chevron's CEO Mike Wirth warns that global emergency oil reserves are largely depleted, making crude oil vulnerable to disruptions. To address this, Chevron is investing $7 billion to expand production in Venezuela, funded entirely by cash from existing joint ventures, minimizing impact on other projects. Despite political risks in Venezuela, Chevron's strong financial performance and strategic moves, including integration synergies and record production, support this bet. The company expects oil prices to remain high due to limited spare capacity and resilient demand, making Chevron stock a favorable buy for investors.

Chevron's stock is trading at USD 216.47 on Pluang, showing a 2.03% increase as of Sep 15, 2026 22:51 WIB. The company’s market cap stands at $416.19 billion, reflecting strong investor interest amid its $7 billion investment in Venezuela.
