Beginning in 1924, representatives from Texaco marketed lubricants in what later became Cambodia. Chevron and Texaco merged in 2001.
Caltex Cambodia Limited was incorporated in 1995. In 2008, the name of the wholly owned retail and marketing subsidiary was changed to Chevron (Cambodia) Limited while it continued to do business under the Caltex® brand.
In 1996, we opened our first service station in Pochentong, Phnom Penh. Our first Star Mart® followed in 1997. Our terminal in Preah Sihanouk Province began operations in 1998. We opened our first Coffee Plus® outlet in 2005.
Caltex service stations in Cambodia offer customers our most advanced fuels. In 2000, we launched Vortex gasoline. We began to sell our auto fuels with the engine-cleaning Techron® additive in 2006. We introduced Caltex Diesel with Techron® D in July 2009.
Chevron began exploration in Cambodia in 2002. In that year, the Royal Government of Cambodia awarded Chevron Overseas Petroleum (Cambodia) Limited a concession for offshore exploration and production. Since that time, Chevron has drilled 18 wells and acquired 3-D seismic data across more than 950 square miles (2,640 sq km).
