exploration

developing vital energy resources
Chevron Canada has a proud history of exploration success. Over the past eight decades we have made numerous oil and natural gas discoveries in Western Canada, offshore Atlantic Canada and in the Northwest Territories. Today, we are continuing our quest to find and develop new sources of energy to fuel human and economic progress and prosperity in Canada and around the globe.
