Occidental Petroleum is an international energy company with premier diversified assets primarily in the United States, the Middle East, and North Africa, ranking among the largest U.S. oil and gas producers with leading positions in the Permian and DJ Basins, offshore Gulf of America, and as the largest independent oil producer in Oman. The company's oil and gas business generates revenue through conventional and unconventional field development using primary, secondary (waterflood), and tertiary (CO₂ and steam flood) recovery methods, with a competitive advantage in CO₂ separation, transportation, utilization, recycling and storage for enhanced oil recovery. The midstream and marketing segment supports and enhances oil and gas operations through gathering, processing, transportation, storage and terminal services provided to both Occidental subsidiaries and third parties, with equity method investments in entities such as WES and DEL, and includes Al Hosn Gas processing facility in the UAE. Oxy Low Carbon Ventures, a subsidiary within midstream and marketing, advances decarbonization technologies including direct air capture (with the STRATOS facility designed to capture up to 500,000 tons of CO₂ annually), carbon sequestration, and lithium development. The company's business model relies on capital-efficient production across multiple geographies, with approximately 70% of oil and gas capital directed to U.S. operations, supported by a skilled workforce and quality service providers, and generates cash flow through oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas sales at market prices or through forward contracts to refiners and end users.
【Sustained cost efficiency and cash flow growth】 Management expects to deliver more than $1.2 billion of incremental free cash flow in 2026 relative to 2025 before higher price impacts, driven by $500 million in annual oil and gas operational savings, $400 million in midstream savings, and approximately $365 million in interest savings from debt reduction. The company is targeting a principal debt reduction to $10 billion as a priority while maintaining production at approximately 1.45 million BOE per day in 2026 despite lower capital spending of $5.5–$5.9 billion, reflecting continued operational efficiency gains and optimization of activity levels. Management plans to develop significant additional cash flow by 2029 through continued oil and gas cost efficiency, lower decline rates from mid-cycle projects including Gulf of America waterflood and Permian EOR investments, and lower corporate costs from reduced debt interest and workforce efficiency. The company remains disciplined in capital allocation, with plans to increase reinvestment from its advantaged resource base once macro conditions clarify, while maintaining a sustainable and growing dividend supported by strong operational execution and record safety performance achieved in 2025.
