In 2009, Chevron celebrated its 130th anniversary. As we look
to the future, we do so with enthusiasm and optimism. We have
a vast base of resources, a strong inventory of growth projects
and a reputation for the innovative application of technology.
Our vision is to be the energy company most admired for its
people, partnership and performance. It is an aspiration that
guides our activities the world over. We are proud to be a part
of the energy industry. We know our work fuels economic
development and improves the world’s quality of life.
This year, we have streamlined our printed Annual Report and
developed an online version that contains additional information
about our company, as well as videos you can watch to learn
more about our projects. We invite you to visit our Web site

On the Cover: The Discoverer Clear Leader, an ultra-deepwater drillship built to Chevron’s specifications, has set sail and is now operating in
the deepwater U.S. Gulf of Mexico. The state-of-the-art vessel offers the most advanced capabilities in the offshore drilling industry. It is capable
of operating in water depths of 12,000 feet (3,650 meters) and to a total depth of 40,000 feet (12,200 meters). The Discoverer Clear Leader
will help Chevron expand its search for crude oil and natural gas in the deepwater Gulf, where it is one of the top leaseholders and producers.

This Page: The sun sets over Barrow Island, offshore Western Australia. The island will be the site of a domestic natural gas plant and liquefied
natural gas (LNG) facility to support the Gorgon Project, a vast natural gas development. Gorgon is expected to be a major contributor to Chevron’s
growth over the next four decades. A groundbreaking ceremony took place in 2009, with major construction planned in the second half of 2010.
First LNG deliveries are expected in 2014. To learn more, visit: Chevron.com/AnnualReport2009.
