Chevron is a leader in finished lubricants and a leading global manufacturer of premium base oils. We sell products on six continents, employ a diverse workforce and operate hundreds of facilities worldwide.
Our lubricants organization supplies products to a variety of commercial, industrial and retail customers. A complete line of lubrication and coolant products — including Havoline®, Delo® and Ursa® — are sold under our three brands: Chevron, Texaco and Caltex.
Chevron is working on a project that would cement our leadership role in lubricants. In August 2008, we submitted an application to the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality for the construction of a premium base oil facility at the company's Pascagoula refinery. Base oil is the oil used in lubricant formulas before additives are introduced.
The facility is expected to have daily production of approximately 25,000 barrels of premium base oil, which would be used to manufacture high-performance lubricants, such as motor oils for consumer and commercial uses. With the additional manufacturing from the Pascagoula facility, Chevron would become the world's largest producer of premium base oils.
