“ IT IS OUR PEOPLE WHO DEVELOP OUR STRATEGIES, BUILD OUR
PARTNERSHIPS, CREATE NEW TECHNOLOGY, ENSURE THAT WE
OPERATE SAFELY AND ETHICALLY, AND MANAGE THE GREAT
RISKS THAT ARE PART OF OUR BUSINESS. IT IS THIS ‘HUMAN
ENERGY’ THAT THIS YEAR’S ANNUAL REPORT CELEBRATES.”

drive results, and create partnerships that enable the effi -
cient execution of complex cross-border projects. These
are all core capabilities of Chevron.
HUMAN ENERGY: THE HEART OF CHEVRON Our
success in 2005 was defi ned by a number of factors –
robust strategies, consistent execution, a safety record
that is among the best in our business, innovative technol-
ogy and strong commodity prices. But the fundamental
contributor to our success is the people of Chevron. Their
dedication, resourcefulness and sheer ingenuity were on
display throughout the year and were dramatically high-
lighted in our response to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
Whether it was Chevron employees helping each other,
assisting the community or working to restore energy
supplies to the marketplace as quickly as they did, their
actions were truly heroic.
It is our people who develop our strategies, build our
partnerships, create new technology, ensure that we oper-
ate safely and ethically, and manage the great risks that
are part of our business. It is this “human energy” that
this year’s Annual Report celebrates. It is at the heart of
Chevron. And it will continue to drive our mission to
deliver safe, clean and reliable energy to fuel economic
growth and human progress.
Thank you for your continued support.

Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer
