How do you make a
100-year-old oil field
feel young again?
In California’s San Joaquin Valley, Chevron is dramatically extending the
producing life of some of the oldest oil fields in the United States. The Kern
River Field, for one, is more than a century old. Several decades ago, it was
in a steep production decline. With the application of advanced steamflood
technologies, Kern River produced its 2 billionth barrel of oil in 2007, making
it one of the largest and most prolific fields in the United States. We are
exporting best practices learned in the San Joaquin Valley to heavy oil fields
in other parts of the world, including Indonesia and the Partitioned Neutral
Zone between Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Technologies such as advanced
steamflooding are enabling us to increase the value of existing resources
while helping us develop the resources of tomorrow.
