Boycott Chevron
Chevron runs natural gas extraction and pipelines off the shore of Palestine/Israel, making it a major partner in Israeli energy apartheid, the military blockade on Gaza, and the illegal exploitation of Palestinian land and resources.
Join Palestinian civil society and a growing international coalition calling on Chevron to end its support of genocide and apartheid in Palestine. Chevron is the largest producer of natural gas for Israel and the largest multinational corporation with a significant stake in Israel’s energy sector. It operates and partially owns the largest active Israeli gas fields, Tamar and Leviathan, and the smaller and undeveloped Dalit field, all of which are located in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, west of Haifa. The gas from Tamar is processed in a rig that is located farther south, off the coast of Isdud/Ashdod. In 2023, Chevron made an estimated $1.5 billion in revenue from Tamar and Leviathan gas sales alone, mostly from exports to Egypt and Jordan. Chevron partially owns the Mari B gas field off the coast of the Gaza Strip, but it has been depleted and inactive since 2013. Chevron also operates and partially owns the East Mediterranean Gas (EMG) pipeline, which runs from Israel to Egypt off the coast of the Gaza Strip. As the operator of these gas fields and the pipeline, Chevron is in charge of all operations of these projects, including planning, construction, production, and supply. The Caspian Pipeline Consortium in Russia, which supplies crude oil to Israel, and the main Kazakh companies that supply this oil, are also partially owned by Chevron. Between 2021 and December 2024, Chevron spent nearly $28.5 million on lobbying the U.S. government, including on energy issues related to Israel. Chevron entered the Israeli fossil gas market in 2020 with the acquisition of Noble Energy; it can choose to sell off this investment at any time.
