Chevron is an important oil company. The company has merged with several other small companies and since 1800s when was created they’ve been into oil business.
The reason why the company was created is that oil was discovered just north of Los Angeles and Standard Oil subsequently bought up Pacific Oil.
Because they were the first to discover one massive oil field their net worth has grown significantly.
After Standard Oil was split apart in the early 1900s, the section of Standard Oil that was made up of the former Pacific Coast Oil company was named Standard Oil Company of California, or SoCal.
They are one of the biggest oil companies in the world and of course of the richest companies in the entire world.
