ENERGY PORTFOLIO: CONVENTIONAL ENERGY UNCONVENTIONAL ENERGY
The successful development of our energy portfolio requires
tremendous resources — none more important than human energy.
At Chevron, a spirit of ingenuity, collaboration and commitment
drives our business every day and helps us create innovative
solutions to the most demanding problems. Our human energy is
embodied in many ways — from the enterprise approach that Chevron
employees take to solve business challenges, to the partnerships we
form with other businesses, local communities and governments.
Because human energy is infi nite, so is the potential to meet the
world’s demand for safe, reliable energy.
DEVELOPING HUMAN ENERGY
> HELPING STUDENTS LEARN (PHOTO RIGHT): In Venezuela, Chevron and the Discovery
Channel Global Education Partnership have established 15 learning centers in three states. The
centers provide DVDs and other educational media and materials to more than 11,000 rural or under-
privileged students. Shown here are students at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart in Maracaibo, site of
one of the centers. They are (left to right) Zulimar Piña, Jackzury Rosales, Angel D. Vilchez, Yesica
Morán and Aldrin Fajardo. Similar learning centers have been established in Angola and South Africa.
Our goal is to be recognized as the
employer of choice. We encourage a
collaborative environment and have
programs in place to attract, develop
and retain top talent. Our long queue
of capital projects has increased
staffi ng and development opportuni-
ties dramatically. In response, we
have developed programs to facilitate
the transition of new employees into
Chevron and acquaint them with our
processes, procedures and values.
