The job cuts, set to begin June 1, 2025, are part of Chevron's global workforce reduction strategy targeting up to 20% by 2026.

Chevron plans to lay off 600 Northern California employees as part of a $3 billion cost-cutting strategy, with more potential cuts to follow.

Analysts are attributing the rising costs in part to inflation, refineries undergoing maintenance work and President Trump’s more aggressive posture on Iran, after announcing plans to revive the “maximum pressure” campaign against the country, which seeks to bring Iran’s crude oil sales to zero.
