About Us

Chevron is a leading multinational energy company with operations in over 180 countries. Founded in 1879, Chevron has a rich history of innovation and growth, making significant contributions to the global energy landscape.

Chevron markets Caltex® fuels, lubricants and other petroleum products in the Philippines. Our network of service stations, terminals and sales offices forms the backbone of our presence in the Philippines.

In March 2020, Chevron sold its 45% non-operated interest in the Malampaya natural gas field. This was the first natural gas development and largest industrial project in the Philippines.

From the Philippines, we provide operational support for Chevron offices on five continents. The workforce supplies transactional, processing and consulting services in areas ranging from finance to information technology.

Chevron operates through two subsidiaries in the Philippines. Our Downstream company is Chevron Philippines Inc. We also operate a business processes support organization through Chevron Holdings Inc.

There are two Chevron companies operating in the Philippines: Chevron Holdings Incorporated (CHI) and Chevron Philippines Incorporated (CPI).

CHI is a shared services center providing transactional, processing, and consulting services in the areas of finance and accounting, information technology, supply chain management, human resources, downstream customer service and marketing. Established in 1998, CHI serves Chevron affiliates in six continents around the world. Over the years, it has grown to be one of the leading members of the shared services industry in the Philippines.

CHI has received various recognitions as a top employer: the 2022 Diversity Company of the Year; 2021 Asia’s Best Employer Brand Award; 2021 Global Best Employer Brand Award; 2020 HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia; 2019 Circle of Excellence, Top Employer Category at Asia CEO Awards, and the 2018 Wellness Company of the Year at the same Asia CEO Awards.

CPI markets the Caltex brand of top-quality fuels, lubricants, and petroleum products through a network of service stations, terminals and sales offices.
