What kind of projects will cvx even be able to execute?
Exploration? Completely gutted already with no ability to find anything if value at all, so no future whatsoever.
Existing developments are dying on the vine and in terminal decline. And we're on the hook for abandonment as these fields die.
Even if we do discover something worthwhile, how are we going to develop it? The talent has been slashed to bits, the institutional knowledge gone. Id--t yes men out of India are not going to have the know- how to execute the future of chevron.
So, how long? 5 years? 10 if we're lucky?
