🏛️ Company History
Chevron's origins trace back to 1879 with the founding of the Pacific Coast Oil Company in California. In 1900, it became part of John D. Rockefeller’s Standard Oil empire. Following the 1911 antitrust breakup, it emerged as Standard Oil of California (SoCal). The company adopted the Chevron name in 1984 after merging with Gulf Oil, then the largest merger in history. Further expansion occurred in 2001 with the acquisition of Texaco, solidifying Chevron's position as a global energy leader. Wikipedia+5Encyclopedia Britannica+5chevron.com+5Wikipedia
