producing domestic oil safely and reliably since 1997

Chevron Canada has been at the forefront of world-class offshore energy development in Canada. In Canada’s east coast, we are the second largest producer of oil and gas by volume. Chevron Canada holds a 26.9 percent nonoperated working interest in the Hibernia Field, a 23.7 percent nonoperated interest in the Hibernia Southern Extension (HSE) and a 29.6 percent nonoperated working interest in the Hebron Field.

Hibernia has been producing oil and gas for over 25 years. Its world-class platform design was specially built to withstand impacts from large icebergs that can be found in the production field. To extend the life of the asset, improve reliability and pursue emission efficiencies, cutting-edge, cost-effective technologies are being employed. Current drilling technology has enabled wells that reach up to 8.5 kilometres (5.3 miles) in length and are drilled to a depth of almost 4,700 metres (15,400 feet).

Hebron has been reliably producing oil and gas for seven years. As one of the world’s largest offshore oil platforms, its leveraging technology to improve performance. The operator has estimated the field will produce more than 700 million barrels of recoverable resources, with an anticipated 30-year economic lifespan.

The energy sector has been a significant economic contributor to the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. In 2023, the sector was responsible for approximately one third of the province’s gross domestic product (GDP). Throughout the life cycle of assets like Hibernia and Hebron, economic contributions have included employment, engineering and construction, research and development activities and significant royalty and tax revenues.

Chevron Canada is a member of the Energy Research and Innovation Newfoundland and Labrador. The collaborative non-profit builds on the foundation of safety to support the sustainability of the offshore energy industry through technology and innovation.

To get valuable oil and gas resources from Canada’s east coast to global markets, Chevron Canada holds a 30 percent nonoperated working interest in the Newfoundland Transshipment Limited (NTL) facility. For over 25 years, the facility has safely stored and shipped oil from Hibernia and other offshore platforms to global markets, delivering the energy the world needs.
