Come be a part of a dynamic team in one of Chevron's largest exploration and production companies and one of Africa's most prolific oil-producing countries.
Chevron has been active in Nigeria since 1913, when legacy company Texaco products were first brought to the market. As Texaco Overseas (Nigeria) Petroleum Co. (TOPCON) and later Chevron Nigeria Ltd. (CNL), the company discovered Nigeria's first offshore oil fields in 1963-the Koluama and Okan fields.
In 1997 CNL started the Escravos Gas Project (EGP), the nation's first major project to gather and process natural gas. Continuing the search for offshore oil, CNL discovered the Agbami field in 1999 and uncovered potential recoverable resources of 900 million barrels of oil equivalent, Nigeria's largest ever deepwater discovery.
Today Chevron has the largest acreage position in deepwater offshore Nigeria. CNL is expanding rapidly and investing significant capital to drive long-term production growth in Deepwater and Gas, as well as other base businesses. At the same time, Chevron is committed to actively promoting a safe and healthy environment.
