NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of ChevronTexaco Corporation and its subsidiaries (the company) have not been audited by independent accountants, except for the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2002. In the opinion of the companys management, the interim data include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. These adjustments were of a normal recurring nature, except for the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, special items and merger-related expenses described in Notes 2 and 3, including items relating to the companys investment in Dynegy Inc. (Dynegy) discussed in detail in Notes 2 and 4.
Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the companys 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of future financial results.
Note 2. Net Income
Net income for the second quarter of 2003 included net charges of $117 million mainly for the write-down of assets in anticipation of their sale. Net income for the second quarter 2002 included charges of $531 million for a write-down of ChevronTexacos investment in its Dynegy affiliate; $100 million for the companys share of Dynegys own write-downs and other adjustments; $122 million for environmental remediation costs and the settlement of a litigation issue; and $73 million for merger-related expenses.
In addition to the second quarter 2003 net charges, net income for the first six months of 2003 included charges of $196 million for the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles discussed in Note 3, and $39 million for the companys share of losses from asset sales and impairments by an international downstream equity affiliate. Net income for the first six months of 2002 included charges of $74 million for the companys share of a write-down by Dynegy of investments in its telecommunications businesses and merger-related expenses of $132 million, in addition to the second quarter 2002 charges.
Foreign currency losses were $157 million and $153 million in the second quarters 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the six-month periods, losses were $202 million and $29 million in 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Note 3. Cumulative Effect of Changes in Accounting Principles
The company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (FAS 143), effective January 1, 2003. This new accounting standard applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. FAS 143 primarily affects the companys accounting for oil and gas producing assets and differs in several respects from previous accounting under FAS 19, Financial Accounting and Reporting by Oil and Gas Producing Companies. In the first quarter 2003, the company recorded a net after-tax charge of $200 million for the cumulative effect of the adoption of FAS 143, including the companys share of amounts attributable to equity affiliates. The cumulative-effect adjustment also increased the following balance sheet categories: Properties, plant and equipment $2.568 billion; Accrued liabilities $115 million; and, Deferred credits and other noncurrent obligations, $2.674 billion. Noncurrent deferred income taxes decreased by $21 million. Upon adoption, legal obligations, if any, to retire refining, marketing and transportation (downstream) and chemical long-lived assets generally were not recognized, as indeterminate settlement dates for the asset retirements prevented estimation of the fair value of the associated retirement obligation (ARO). The company will perform future periodic reviews of its downstream and chemical long-lived assets for any changes in facts and circumstances that might require recognition of a retirement obligation.
7
Other than the cumulative-effect net charge, the effect of the new accounting standard on net income in the second quarter and six months 2003 was not materially different from what the result would have been under FAS 19 accounting. Included in Depreciation, depletion and amortization of $1.411 billion and $2.653 billion in the second quarter and six months 2003, was $43 million and $86 million, respectively, of expenses related to asset retirement obligations.
The following table shows what the companys net income and net income per share would have been in the second quarter and first half 2002 if the provisions of FAS 143 had been applied in that period, compared with net income and net income per share recorded in the corresponding 2003 periods.

Also in the first quarter 2003, the company recorded an after-tax gain of $4 million for its share of the Dynegy affiliates cumulative effect of adoption of Emerging Issue Task Force Consensus No. 02-3, Issues Involved in Accounting for Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities, effective January 1, 2003.
Note 4. | Information Relating to the Companys Investment in Dynegy |
ChevronTexacos Dynegy Inc. (Dynegy) equity affiliate is an energy merchant engaged in power generation, natural gas liquids processing and marketing and regulated energy delivery. At June 30, 2003, the company owned approximately 26 percent of Dynegy common stock and held $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of Dynegy Series B Preferred Stock, due to be redeemed at par in November 2003.
8
During 2002, ChevronTexaco recorded charges of $1.626 billion, including a charge of $531 million in the second quarter, for a partial write-down of its investments in Dynegy common and preferred stock to their estimated respective fair values. The write-down of the companys investments during 2002 was required because the declines in the fair values of the common and preferred stock investments below their respective carrying values were deemed to be other-than-temporary.
With respect to the ChevronTexaco investment in Dynegy common stock, at June 30, 2003, the $16 million carrying value was approximately $500 million below the companys proportionate interest in Dynegys underlying net assets. This difference has been assigned to the extent practicable to specific Dynegy assets and liabilities, based upon the companys analysis of the various factors giving rise to the decline in value. The companys share of Dynegys reported earnings is adjusted quarterly to reflect the difference between these allocated values and Dynegys historical book values.
The estimated fair value of the companys investment in Dynegy Series B Preferred Stock at June 30, 2003, was $600 million, an increase of $300 million from the amount reported at December 31, 2002, and March 31, 2003. This increase has been reported in Other Comprehensive Income for the three-and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003.
On August 11, 2003, the company exchanged its Series B Preferred Dynegy stock for $225 million in cash, $225 million of Junior Unsecured Subordinated Notes due 2016 and $400 million of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.
In the third quarter 2003, the company will record the new securities at their estimated respective fair values. Any gain representing the difference between the carrying value of the old securities and the estimated fair value of the new securities at the time of exchange, together with amounts previously recorded in Other Comprehensive Income will be recorded in net income. In addition, the company will record as appropriate under the equity method of accounting its approximate 26 percent share of the redemption effects recognized by Dynegy.
Future temporary changes in the estimated fair values of the new securities will be reported in Other Comprehensive Income. However, if future declines in fair value are deemed to be other than temporary, such declines would be recorded against income. Interest that accrues on the notes and dividends payable on the preferred stock will be recognized in income.

Segment Earnings. The company evaluates the performance of its operating segments on an after-tax basis, without considering the effects of debt financing interest expense or investment interest income, both of which are managed by the company on a worldwide basis. Corporate administrative costs and assets are not allocated to the operating segments. However, operating segments are billed for the direct use of corporate services. Nonbillable costs and, in the 2002 periods, merger-related expenses, remain at the corporate level. After-tax segment income (loss) for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, is presented in the following table:

Note 9. | Income Taxes |
Taxes on income before the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles for the second quarter and first half 2003 were $1.372 billion and $3.120 billion, respectively, compared with $876 million and $1.466 billion for the comparable periods in 2002. The effective tax rates for the second quarter 2003 and 2002 were 46 percent and 68 percent, respectively. For the year-to-date periods, the effective tax rates were 46 percent and 56 percent, respectively. The lower effective tax rates for both 2003 periods primarily reflected a lower proportion of international before-tax income, which is generally taxed at higher rates. Additionally, in the 2002 periods, the U.S. operations generated before-tax losses. In the second quarter 2002, a significant portion of the write-down of the companys investment in Dynegy did not generate U.S. tax benefits.
Note 10. | Stock Options |
In 2003 and 2002, the company had stock-based compensation plans. The company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had applied the fair-value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation:

Note 11. | Litigation |
Unocal Patent. Chevron, Texaco and four other oil companies (refiners) filed suit in 1995, contesting the validity of a patent (393 patent) granted to Unocal Corporation (Unocal) for certain reformulated gasoline blends. ChevronTexaco sells reformulated gasolines in California in certain months of the year. In March 2000, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld a September 1998 District Court decision that Unocals patent was valid and enforceable and assessed damages of 5.75 cents per gallon for gasoline produced during the summer of 1996 which infringed on the claims of the patent. In February 2001, the U.S. Supreme Court concluded it would not review the lower courts ruling, and the case was sent back to the District Court for an accounting of all infringing gasoline produced after August 1, 1996. The District Court has now ruled that the per-gallon damages awarded by the jury are limited to infringement that occurs in California only. Additionally, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) granted two petitions by the refiners to re-examine the validity of Unocals 393 patent and has now twice rejected all of the claims in the 393 patent. Those rejections have been appealed by Unocal to the USPTO Board of Appeals. The District Court judge requested further briefing and advised that she would not enter a final judgment in this case until the USPTO had completed its re-examination of the 393 patent. During 2002 and 2003, the USPTO granted two petitions for reexamination of another Unocal patent, the 126 patent. The USPTO has rejected the validity of the claims of the 126 patent, which could affect a larger share of U.S. gasoline production. Separately, in March 2003, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed a complaint against Unocal alleging that its conduct during the pendency of the patents was in violation of antitrust law. The complaint seeks to enjoin Unocal from collecting royalties on its patents, effectively rendering them unenforceable. Trial is set for November 2003.
Unocal has obtained additional patents that could affect a larger share of U.S. gasoline production. ChevronTexaco believes these additional patents are invalid, unenforceable and/or not infringed. The companys financial exposure in the event of unfavorable conclusions to the patent litigation and regulatory reviews may include royalties, plus interest, for production of gasoline that is proved to have infringed the patents. The competitive and financial effects on the companys refining and marketing operations, while presently indeterminable, could be material. ChevronTexaco has been accruing in the normal course of business any future estimated liability for potential infringement of the 393 patent covered by the 1998 trial courts ruling. In 2000, prior to the merger, Chevron and Texaco made payments to Unocal totaling approximately $30 million for the original court ruling, including interest and fees.
MTBE. Another issue involving the company is the petroleum industrys use of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) as a gasoline additive and its potential environmental impact through seepage into groundwater. Along with other oil companies, the company is a party to lawsuits and claims related to the use of the chemical MTBE in certain oxygenated gasolines. These actions may require the company to correct or ameliorate the alleged effects on the environment of prior release of MTBE by the company or other parties. Additional lawsuits and claims related to the use of MTBE, including personal-injury claims, may be filed in the future. The companys ultimate exposure related to these lawsuits and claims is not currently determinable, but could be material to net income in any one period. ChevronTexaco has reduced the use of MTBE in gasoline it manufactures in the United States. California has directed that MTBE be phased out of the manufacturing process by the end of 2003, and the company intends to comply with this mandate. In the first quarter 2003, the company completed the conversion to marketing motor gasoline with ethanol as an oxygenate instead of MTBE in southern California, and will complete the changeover in northern California later in the year.
Note 12. | Other Contingencies and Commitments |
Income Taxes. The U.S. federal income tax liabilities have been settled through 1996 for ChevronTexaco (formerly Chevron), 1993 for ChevronTexaco Global Energy Inc. (formerly Caltex), and 1991 for Texaco Inc. The companys California franchise tax liabilities have been settled through 1991 for Chevron and 1987 for Texaco.
16
Settlement of open tax years, as well as tax issues in other countries where the company conducts its business, is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the company and, in the opinion of management, adequate provision has been made for income and franchise taxes for all years under examination or subject to future examination.
Guarantees. The company and its subsidiaries have certain other contingent liabilities with respect to guarantees, direct or indirect, of debt of affiliated companies or others and long-term unconditional purchase obligations and commitments, throughput agreements and take-or-pay agreements, some of which relate to suppliers financing arrangements. Under the terms of the guarantee arrangements, generally the company would be required to perform should the affiliated company or third party fail to fulfill its obligations under the arrangements. In some cases, the guarantee arrangements have recourse provisions that would enable the company to recover any payments made under the terms of the guarantees from securities held of the guaranteed parties assets.
Indemnities. The company also provided certain indemnities of contingent liabilities of Equilon and Motiva to Shell Oil Company and Saudi Refining Inc. in connection with the February 2002 sale of the companys interests in those investments. The indemnities cover contingent general liabilities, certain contingent environmental liabilities and liabilities associated with the Unocal patent litigation. The company would be required to perform should the contingent general liabilities become actual liabilities within 18 months of the sale and could be required to make maximum future payments of $300 million. The company has paid approximately $10 million under these contingencies but has not recorded additional liabilities for these contingencies. There are no recourse provisions enabling recovery of any amounts from third parties nor are any assets held as collateral. Within five years of the February 2002 sale, at the buyers option, the company also may be required to purchase certain assets from Shell Oil Company for their net book value, as determined at the time of the companys purchase.
The indemnities pertaining to the contingent environmental liabilities relate to assets originally contributed by Texaco to the Equilon and Motiva joint ventures and environmental conditions that existed prior to the formation of Equilon and Motiva or that occurred during the periods of ChevronTexacos ownership interests in the joint ventures. In general, the environmental conditions or events that are subject to these indemnities must have arisen prior to December 12, 2001. Claims relating to Equilon must be asserted no later than February 13, 2009, and claims relating to Motiva must be asserted no later than February 13, 2012. Under the terms of the indemnities, there is no maximum limit on the amount of potential future payments. The company has not recorded any liabilities for possible claims under these indemnities. The amounts indemnified are to be net of amounts recovered from insurance carriers and others and net of liabilities recorded by Equilon or Motiva prior to September 30, 2001, for any applicable incident. The company holds no assets as collateral and has made no payments under the indemnities.
Minority Interests. The company has commitments related to preferred shares of subsidiary companies, which are accounted for as minority interest. MVP Production Inc., a subsidiary, has variable rate cumulative preferred shares of $75 million owned by one minority holder. The shares are voting and are redeemable in 2003. Texaco Capital LLC, a wholly owned finance subsidiary, has issued $65 million of Deferred Preferred Shares, Series C. Dividends amounting to $59 million on Series C, at a rate of 7.17 percent compounded annually, will be paid at the redemption date of February 28, 2005, unless earlier redemption occurs. Early redemption may result upon the occurrence of certain specific events.
Environmental. The company is subject to loss contingencies pursuant to environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the company to take action to correct or ameliorate the effects on the environment of prior release of chemical or petroleum substances, including MTBE, by the company or other parties. Such contingencies may exist for various sites, including but not limited to: Superfund sites and refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals, and land development areas, whether operating, closed or sold. The amount of such future cost is indeterminable due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination, the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be required, the
17
determination of the companys liability in proportion to other responsible parties, and the extent to which such costs are recoverable from third parties. While the company has provided for known environmental obligations that are probable and reasonably estimable, the amount of additional future costs may be material to results of operations in the period in which they are recognized. The company does not expect these costs will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or liquidity. Also, the company does not believe its obligations to make such expenditures have had, or will have, any significant impact on the companys competitive position relative to other U.S. or international petroleum or chemicals concerns.
Financial Instruments. The company believes it has no material market or credit risks to its operations, financial position or liquidity as a result of its commodities and other derivatives activities, including forward exchange contracts and interest rate swaps. However, the results of operations and the financial position of certain equity affiliates may be affected by their business activities involving the use of derivative instruments.
Global Operations. ChevronTexaco and its affiliates have operations in over 180 countries. Areas in which the company and its affiliates have significant operations include the United States of America, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Norway, Denmark, France, Partitioned Neutral Zone between Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, Republic of Congo, Angola, Nigeria, Chad, Equatorial Guinea, Democratic Republic of Congo, South Africa, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Singapore, China, Thailand, Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Trinidad and Tobago and South Korea. The companys Tengizchevroil affiliate operates in Kazakhstan. The companys Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC affiliate manufactures and markets a wide range of petrochemicals and plastics on a worldwide basis, with manufacturing facilities in existence or under construction in the United States, Puerto Rico, Singapore, China, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Mexico and Belgium.
The companys operations, particularly exploration and production, can be affected by changing economic, regulatory and political environments in the various countries in which it operates, including the United States. As has occurred in the past, actions could be taken by host governments to increase public ownership of the companys partially- or wholly-owned businesses, and/or to impose additional taxes or royalties on the companys operations.
In certain locations, host governments have imposed restrictions, controls and taxes, and in others, political conditions have existed that may threaten the safety of employees and the companys continued presence in those countries. Internal unrest or strained relations between a host government and the company or other governments may affect the companys operations. Those developments have, at times, significantly affected the companys related operations and results, and are carefully considered by management when evaluating the level of current and future activity in such countries.
Equity Redetermination. For oil and gas producing operations, ownership agreements may provide for periodic reassessments of equity interests in estimated oil and gas reserves. These activities, individually or together, may result in gains or losses that could be material to earnings in any given period. One such equity redetermination process has been under way since 1996 for ChevronTexacos interests in four producing zones at the Naval Petroleum Reserve at Elk Hills in California, for the time when the remaining interests in these zones were owned by the U.S. Department of Energy. A wide range remains for a possible net settlement amount for the four zones. ChevronTexaco currently estimates its maximum possible net before-tax liability at less than $200 million. At the same time, a possible maximum net amount that could be owed to ChevronTexaco is estimated at more than $50 million. The timing of the settlement and the exact amount within this range of estimates are uncertain.
Other Contingencies. ChevronTexaco receives claims from and submits claims to customers, trading partners, U.S. federal, state and local regulatory bodies, host governments, contractors, insurers, and suppliers. The amounts of these claims, individually and in the aggregate, may be significant and take lengthy periods to resolve.
18
The company and its affiliates also continue to review and analyze their operations and may close, abandon, sell, exchange, acquire or restructure assets to achieve operational or strategic benefits and to improve competitiveness and profitability. These activities, individually or together, may result in gains or losses in future periods.
Note 13. | Accounting for Mineral Interests Investment |
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been discussing with certain public companies in the oil and gas and mining industries the proper accounting for, and reporting of, acquired oil and gas mineral rights held under lease and other contractual arrangements under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 141, Business Combinations (FAS 141) and FASB Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Intangible Assets (FAS 142). These accounting standards became effective for the company on July 1, 2001, and January 1, 2002, respectively.
At issue is whether such oil and gas mineral rights held under lease and other contractual arrangements should be classified on the balance sheet as part of Properties, plant and equipment or as Intangible assets with related disclosures. The company will continue to classify these costs as Properties, plant and equipment under the companys existing accounting policy until the SEC, or other standard-setting bodies assigned responsibility for resolving this issue, provide definitive guidance. Any change would have no impact either on the companys reported net income or cash flows in future periods. For ChevronTexaco, the net book value of this category of oil and gas mineral rights held under lease and other contractual arrangements at June 30, 2003, for its oil and gas and coal mining operations was approximately $4 billion.

Net income for the second quarter of 2003 was $1.6 billion ($1.50 per share diluted), compared with $407 million ($0.39 per share diluted) in the year-ago period. Second quarter 2003 results included net charges of $117 million primarily for the write-down of assets in anticipation of their sale. Last years second quarter net income included charges of $531 million for a write-down of ChevronTexacos investment in its Dynegy affiliate; $100 million for the companys share of Dynegys own write-downs and other adjustments; $122 million for environmental remediation costs and the settlement of a litigation issue; and $73 million for merger-related expenses.
Net income for the first half of 2003 was $3.5 billion ($3.31 per share diluted), compared with $1.1 billon ($1.07 per share diluted) recorded in the first six months of 2002. In addition to the second quarter 2003 net charges, net income for the six months 2003 included charges of $196 million for the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles, mainly relating to a new accounting standard for asset retirement obligations and $39 million for the companys share of losses from asset sales and impairments by an international equity affiliate. Net income for the first six months of 2002 included charges of $74 million for the companys share of a write-down by Dynegy of investments in its telecommunications businesses and merger-related expenses of $132 million, in addition to the second quarter 2002 charges.
Because of their nature and amount, the special items mentioned above are identified separately to help explain the changes in net income and segment income between periods, as well as to help distinguish the underlying trends for the companys businesses. In the following discussions, the term earnings is defined as net income or segment income, before the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles.
20
Earnings for exploration and production (upstream) in both the 2003 and 2002 periods benefited from strong crude oil and natural gas prices. Upstream earnings for the second quarter 2003 were essentially flat versus the 2002 quarter, while six-month profits were up 36 percent. Partially offsetting the benefits of higher prices were declines in oil-equivalent production of approximately 4 percent between the respective quarterly and six-month periods. For the refining, marketing and transportation (downstream) segment, profits of $438 million and $753 million for the second quarter and six months 2003, respectively, recovered from depressed levels in the corresponding 2002 periods, mainly as a result of significantly improved refined product margins.
Business Environment and Outlook |
ChevronTexacos earnings depend largely on the profitability of its upstream and downstream businesses. Overall earnings trends are typically less affected by results from the companys commodity chemicals sector and other investments. In some reporting periods, net income can also be affected significantly by special items. A key component of the companys competitive position, particularly given its capital-intensive and commodity-based nature, is the ability to invest capital in projects that provide adequate financial returns and to manage operating expenses effectively. The company also continuously evaluates opportunities to dispose of assets that are not key to providing long-term value or to acquire assets or operations complementary to its asset base to help sustain the companys growth. Besides the asset-disposition plans announced to date in 2003, the company expects to finalize and communicate other asset-sale and restructuring plans as the year progresses. Such plans could result in significant gains or losses in future periods.
Comments related to earnings trends for the companys major business areas are as follows:
Upstream. Changes in exploration and production earnings align most closely with industry price levels for crude oil and natural gas. Crude oil and natural gas prices are subject to external factors, over which the company has no control, including product demand connected with global economic conditions, industry inventory levels, weather-related damages and disruptions, competing fuel prices, and regional supply interruptions that may be caused by military conflicts or political uncertainty. For example, political and community unrest has disrupted the companys production in the past, most recently in Nigeria and Venezuela. The company continues to monitor developments closely in the countries in which it operates. Additionally, the companys production, particularly operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, can be adversely affected by severe weather, including hurricanes. Longer-term trends in earnings for this segment are also a function of a range of factors in addition to price trends, including the companys ability to find or acquire and efficiently produce crude oil and natural gas reserves.
During 2002, industry price levels for crude oil trended upward from the $20 per-barrel level at the beginning of the year to about $30 in December. Prices fluctuated somewhat during the first half of 2003 but remained at significantly higher levels than the same 2002 period and were the major factors in this segments higher earnings in 2003. In the first half 2003, the average spot price for West Texas Intermediate (WTI), a benchmark crude oil, was about $32 per barrel, compared with about $24 per barrel in the year-ago period. The higher prices for crude oil in early 2003 in part reflected the geopolitical uncertainty in Iraq and Venezuela. Despite the conclusion of major hostilities in Iraq, prices have remained around $30 per barrel on low inventory levels, production constraints by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and uncertainties about the timing of resumption of crude oil exports from Iraq. In early August, the spot price for WTI crude oil was in the low-$30 range per barrel.
Benchmark prices for Henry Hub U.S. natural gas started 2002 in the low-$2 range per thousand cubic feet and also rose during the year to about the $5 level. In the first half 2003, the benchmark natural gas price averaged about $6 per thousand cubic feet, compared with about $3 per thousand cubic feet in the 2002 period. The higher U.S. natural gas prices were primarily attributable to the industrys near-record low inventories. The combined effects of reduced industrial and power generation demand and mild weather, allowed inventories to be rapidly replenished during June and July. As a result, prices may remain below $5 per thousand cubic feet for the remainder of 2003. In early August, the Henry Hub price had dropped below $5 per thousand cubic feet.
21
In the first half 2003, the companys worldwide oil-equivalent production was down about 4 percent from the year-ago period. Approximately half of the decline was the result of lower liquids production in the Indonesian operations, primarily due to the effect of higher prices on cost-oil recovery volumes under production-sharing arrangements and the expiration of a production-sharing agreement in the third quarter 2002. Production was also lower in the United States, reflecting normal field declines and production deemed uneconomic to restore following storm damages in the Gulf of Mexico in last years second half.
Also affecting overall production levels marginally between years was civil disruption in 2003 in Nigeria and Venezuela. Production was restored in Venezuela before the end of March to levels that were in place prior to the nationwide labor strike. In Nigeria, approximately 45,000 barrels per day of the companys net production in certain onshore areas of Nigeria remains shut-in because of security concerns.
The expected oil-equivalent production level in 2003 and beyond is uncertain, in part because of production quotas by OPEC and the potential for local civil unrest and changing geopolitics that could cause production disruptions.
Downstream. Refining, marketing and transportation earnings are closely tied to regional demand for refined products and the effect on industry refining and marketing margins. Other company-specific factors influencing the companys profitability in this segment include the operating efficiencies of the refinery network, including any downtime due to planned maintenance or operating incidents.
Downstream segment earnings improved in the second quarter and first half 2003, compared with the year-ago periods, on higher margins, particularly in the second quarter 2003 when refined products prices remained strong during a period when crude oil prices were declining. In contrast, margins in first half 2002 were at their lowest levels since the mid-1990s, as weak market conditions would not allow rapidly rising feedstock costs to be fully recovered from consumers of refined products through higher prices. Industry margins may be volatile in the future, depending primarily on price movements for crude oil feedstocks and other factors.
Chemicals. Earnings of $34 million in the second quarter 2003 were about the same as the year-ago period. Six-month profits of $37 million were 27 percent lower. Depressed earnings levels in both years reflect excess supply conditions for the commodity chemicals industry that have kept product margins at low levels for a protracted period. Significant improvement in earnings is not expected in the near future.
Operating Developments |
Operating developments and events in recent months included:
| U.S. Gulf of Mexico Appraisal activity involving the Tahiti reservoirs continued in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico following successful results from two wells drilled earlier this year. ChevronTexaco has a 58 percent operating interest in this prospect. | |
| Australia A third appraisal well at the Io-Jansz natural gas structure off the northwest coast of Western Australia, provided verification of the fields extensive production potential. ChevronTexaco holds a 50 percent equity interest in the WA-18-R permit area, the site of the Jansz-3 well. | |
ChevronTexaco, as operator of the Gorgon Joint Venture, is seeking approval to construct a $7 billion gas processing plant on Barrow Island, also located off the northwest coast of Western Australia. The Western Australian government is assessing potential impacts of the development on Barrow Island, a nature reserve, and is expected to render a decision in the coming months. ChevronTexacos interest in the Gorgon Venture is 57 percent. | ||
| Nigeria ChevronTexaco and its partners reached an agreement that will govern future operations in the offshore Block OPL 216 concession. The agreement will enable the advancement of plans to develop the Agbami Field. A project bidding process will be initiated in the second half of 2003, with contracts awarded for the provision of a floating production, storage and off-loading vessel and the construction and installation of sub-sea production facilities. The company has varying funding |
22
obligations and profit entitlement for the OPL 216 development according to the terms of two production-sharing contracts in the concession. | ||
| Angola Major contracts were awarded for the first phase of development in the Benguela, Belize, Lobito and Tomboco fields in deepwater Block 14. The first phase will involve the drilling and completion of more than 30 development wells and associated facilities in the Benguela and Belize fields. The company is the operator and holds a 31 percent interest in Block 14. | |
| Chad/Cameroon Early in the third quarter 2003, the Chad-Cameroon Oil Development and Pipeline Project achieved first oil from its landlocked fields in southern Chad. The project plan includes transportation of crude oil approximately 650 miles by underground pipeline to the coast of Cameroon for export to world markets. ChevronTexaco is a 25 percent partner in the project consortium. | |
| Kazakhstan Pipeline delivery of sweet (low-sulfur), stabilized crude oil from Phase 2 of the Karachaganak project occurred in July, with initial export sales expected to occur by September. High pressure sour gas injection, which is part of the Phase 2 development, also started in July. Full production from this phase of the Karachaganak Field should be achieved in early 2004. ChevronTexaco holds a 20 percent gross working interest in the Karachaganak project. | |
| Global Gas The company announced plans to create a new global, integrated natural gas organization with responsibility to commercialize its existing large natural gas resource base and enable the creation and development of new natural gas growth opportunities worldwide. | |
| Global Downstream The company announced plans to restructure its global refining and marketing organization in order to lower costs, improve efficiency and achieve sustained improvements in its financial performance. The company plans the shift from a geographical to a functional alignment to be fully operational by the end of 2003. |

U.S. exploration and production income of $658 million in the second quarter increased $122 million from the 2002 period. For the first half of 2003, income doubled to $1.7 billion from $840 million in 2002. The increases in both 2003 periods were mainly the result of higher prices for crude oil and natural gas, partially offset by lower oil-equivalent production and increased depreciation expense attributable to asset impairments.
The average liquids realization for the quarter was $25.25 per barrel, compared with $21.75 in the year-ago period. For the six-months in 2003, the average liquids realization of $27.20 was up 41 percent from $19.35 in the corresponding 2002 period. The average natural gas realization for the second quarter 2003 was

Net oil-equivalent production in the 2003 quarter declined 9 percent, or 97,000 barrels per day, from the 2002 quarter. Between the six-month periods, net oil-equivalent production of 959,000 barrels per day was down about 8 percent. Lower production from the year-ago comparative periods resulted primarily from normal field declines and the absence of about 10,000 to 15,000 barrels of oil-equivalent production the company determined was uneconomic to restore following storm damages in the Gulf of Mexico late last year. The net liquids component of production was down 10 percent to 563,000 barrels per day for the quarter and 9 percent to 570,000 barrels per day for the six-month period. Net natural gas production averaged 2.3 billion cubic feet per day for the second quarter and six months of 2003, down 8 percent for the quarter and 7 percent for the six months, respectively.
Second quarter and six month 2003 results included net special charges of $58 million, mainly for the write-down of assets in anticipation of sale. These properties represent small fields and other interests expected to be disposed of in future periods. For other similar property sales in these future periods, anticipated gains will be recorded as the sales are completed. Such gains are expected to exceed the impairment losses that were recognized in the second quarter of this year.

International exploration and production income declined 12 percent from the year-ago quarter to $624 million. The decrease was due mainly to higher foreign currency losses and exploration expenses. Partially offsetting these adverse effects was the benefit of higher crude oil and natural gas prices. For the first half of 2003, income before the cumulative effect of the accounting change of $1.6 billion increased slightly, compared with $1.5 billion in the corresponding 2002 period.
Net foreign currency losses of $117 million in the 2003 quarter primarily related to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the currencies of Canada, Australia, Argentina and the United Kingdom. Losses of $69 million in the 2002 quarter resulted mainly from fluctuations of the Venezuelan bolivar. For the year-to-date periods, currency losses were $163 million in 2003, compared with gains of $78 million in 2002. While the losses in the 2003 six-month period reflected the weakening of the U.S. dollar, the gains in the 2002 period were attributable to the devaluation of the Argentine peso in the first quarter, partially offset by losses associated with Venezuelan and other currencies.
The average liquids realization for the quarter was $24.10 per barrel, compared with $22.97 in the year-ago period. For the six-month periods, the average liquids realization of $26.81 in 2003 was up 28 percent from $20.99 in 2002. The average natural gas realization for the second quarter 2003 was $2.66 per thousand cubic feet, compared with $1.94 in the 2002 quarter. For the first half 2003, the average natural gas realization was $2.65, versus $2.07 in the 2002 first half.
Net oil-equivalent production for the second quarter 2003 was essentially unchanged from the year-ago period and was down about 2 percent for the six-month period. Between quarters, the net liquids component declined 27,000 barrels per day to 1,266,000 barrels per day. For the six-month periods, net liquids production

U.S. refining, marketing and transportation earnings of $187 million improved from a loss of $30 million in the 2002 quarter. For the first half of 2003, earnings of $257 million compared with losses of $184 million in the corresponding 2002 period. The primary reason for the improvement in both periods was a recovery in the industrys West Coast refined product margins.
The quarters average refined product sales price increased 12 percent to $37.87 per barrel. For the six-month periods, the average refined product sales price of $40.88 in 2003 was up 34 percent from $30.45. Refined product sales volumes decreased 8 percent to 1,546,000 barrels per day in the second quarter, and were 10 percent lower at 1,465,000 barrels per day in the first half of 2003. The reductions mainly reflected weakened demand for gasoline, diesel and jet fuels due to lower economic activity, as well as lower sales under certain supply contracts. Branded gasoline sales volumes declined 4 percent from the year-ago quarter to 562,000 barrels per day. For the six months, branded gasoline sales volumes of 550,000 barrels per day were 5 percent lower than the 2002 period.
Income in the second quarter 2002 included special charges of $86 million for litigation and environmental remediation reserves.

Chemical operations earned $34 million, versus $36 million in the 2002 quarter. Minor profit improvements for the companys 50 percent-owned CPChem affiliate were essentially offset by lower earnings for the Oronite subsidiary. For the six-month periods, earnings of $37 million in 2003 were down from $51 million, mainly on lower earnings by CPChem.

Net segment charges for the second quarter 2003 were $154 million, compared with $893 million in the year-ago period. Included in the second quarter 2002 results were special charges of $728 million related to the companys investment in Dynegy, merger-related expenses and environmental remediation reserves. In addition to the impact of special items and lower foreign currency gains in the second quarter of 2003, net segment charges declined as a result of lower interest and other corporate expenses, partially offset by the companys share of increased losses by Dynegy.
For the year-to-date periods, net segment charges before the cumulative-effect accounting adjustments were $329 million in 2003, compared with $1.3 billion in the first half of 2002. In addition to the second quarter 2002 special charges, results for the first half of 2002 included special charges of $206 million for merger-related expenses and the companys share of a write-down by Dynegy. In addition to the effect of special charges and higher foreign currency gains in the first half of 2003, net segment charges before the cumulative-effect accounting adjustments increased slightly in the first half of 2003, as the companys share of increased losses by Dynegy was only partially offset by lower interest and other corporate expenses.

Consolidated Statement of Income |
Explanations are provided below of variations between periods for certain income statement categories:
Sales and other operating revenues for the second quarter 2003 were $29.1 billion, up from $25.2 billion in last years quarter. For the six months of 2003, sales and other operating revenues of $59.7 billion, compared with $46.1 billion in the 2002 six months. Revenues increased in both 2003 periods on significantly higher prices for crude oil, natural gas and refined products.
Income from equity affiliates increased $134 million to $215 million in the second quarter 2003. For the six-month period, income from equity affiliates increased $287 million to $480 million. The increases in both 2003 periods were primarily the result of improved results by Dynegy, Tengizchevroil (TCO) and the companys international refining and marketing affiliates. The second quarter of 2003 and 2002 included special-item charges of $46 million and $108 million, respectively. For the six-month periods, special-item charges were $85 million and $187 million, respectively. The special-item charges in the 2003 period related to losses on completed asset sales or writedowns related to anticipated asset dispositions. In the 2002 periods, special-item charges related to the companys share of Dynegys write-downs and other adjustments.
Other income of $61 million in the 2003 quarter was up from $29 million in the corresponding 2002 quarter. For the six-month periods, other income was $109 million in 2003, compared with $228 million last year. The decrease for the six-month period was primarily the result of incurring foreign currency losses of $73 million in 2003, versus $68 million of gains in the year-ago period. The six-month change was primarily attributable to fluctuations of the value of the Argentine peso against the U.S. dollar.
Purchased crude oil and products costs of $17.3 billion in the second quarter 2003 were up from $14.7 billion in the 2002 quarter. For the six-month periods, such costs were $35.6 billion in 2003, up 34 percent from $26.5 billion. The increase for the six-month period was the result of significantly higher prices for crude oil, natural gas and refined products.
Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses were essentially flat between the quarters. Higher transportation and pension expense in the 2003 second quarter were offset by the lower amounts for environmental remediation. For the six-month periods, such expenses increased $323 million in 2003. The increases between the quarters and six-month periods were due mainly to higher transportation and shipping costs and increases in pension expense and other employee benefit expenses (OPEB), partially offset by lower amounts for environmental remediation.
Exploration expenses were $147 million in the second quarter 2003, compared with $135 million in the 2002 quarter. For the six-month periods, expenses of $302 million in 2003 increased $82 million on higher amounts for well write-offs and other exploration expenses.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses were $1.4 billion in the second quarter 2003, compared with $1.2 billion in the second quarter 2002. For the six-month periods, expenses were $2.7 billion and $2.4 billion in 2003 and 2002, respectively. The 2003 quarter and six months included special charges of $102 million for the write-down of assets in anticipation of sale.
Merger-related expenses of $119 million and $302 million were recorded in the 2002 quarter and six months, respectively, versus none in 2003, reflecting the completion of merger integration activities.
Taxes other than on income were $4.5 billion in the second quarter 2003, compared with $4.1 billion in the corresponding 2002 period. For the six-month periods, taxes of $8.8 billion in 2003 were $900 million higher. The increases between both comparative periods primarily reflected the effect of the weakening U.S. dollar in 2003 on foreign-currency denominated duties in the companys European downstream operations.
Interest and debt expense was $118 million in the second quarter 2003, compared with $160 million in the second quarter 2002. For the six-month periods, such expense was $248 million in 2003, compared with $307 million. The decreases in the 2003 periods were the result of lower average debt balances and lower average interest rates.
27
Income tax expense before the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles for the second quarter and first half 2003 was $1.372 billion and $3.120 billion, respectively, compared with $876 million and $1.466 billion for the comparable periods in 2002. The effective tax rates for the second quarter 2003 and 2002 were 46 percent and 68 percent, respectively. For the year-to-date periods, the effective tax rates were 46 percent and 56 percent, respectively. The lower effective tax rates for both 2003 periods primarily reflected a lower proportion of higher-taxed international before-tax income, which is generally taxed at higher rates, than in 2002. Additionally in the 2002 periods, the U.S. operations generated before-tax losses. In the second quarter 2002, a significant portion of the write-down of the companys investment in Dynegy did not generate U.S. tax benefits.
Information Relating to the Companys Investment in Dynegy |
ChevronTexacos Dynegy Inc. (Dynegy) equity affiliate is an energy merchant engaged in power generation, natural gas liquids processing and marketing and regulated energy delivery. At June 30, 2003, the company owned approximately 26 percent of Dynegy common stock and held $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of Dynegy Series B Preferred Stock, due to be redeemed at par in November 2003.
During 2002, ChevronTexaco recorded charges of $1.626 billion, including a charge of $531 million in the second quarter, for a partial write-down of its investments in Dynegy common and preferred stock to their estimated respective fair values. The write-down of the companys investments during 2002 was required because the declines in the fair values of the common and preferred stock investments below their respective carrying values were deemed to be other-than-temporary.
With respect to the ChevronTexaco investment in Dynegy common stock, at June 30, 2003, the $16 million carrying value was approximately $500 million below the companys proportionate interest in Dynegys underlying net assets. This difference has been assigned to the extent practicable to specific Dynegy assets and liabilities, based upon the companys analysis of the various factors giving rise to the decline in value. The companys share of Dynegys reported earnings is adjusted quarterly to reflect the difference between these allocated values and Dynegys historical book values.
The estimated fair value of the companys investment in Dynegy Series B Preferred Stock at June 30, 2003, was $600 million, an increase of $300 million from the amount reported at December 31, 2002, and March 31, 2003. This increase has been reported in Other Comprehensive Income for the three-and six-month periods ended June 30, 2003.
On August 11, 2003, the company exchanged its Series B Preferred Dynegy stock for $225 million in cash, $225 million of Junior Unsecured Subordinated Notes due 2016 and $400 million of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.
In the third quarter 2003, the company will record the new securities at their estimated respective fair values. Any gain representing the difference between the carrying value of the old securities and the estimated fair value of the new securities at the time of exchange, together with amounts previously recorded in Other Comprehensive Income will be recorded in net income. In addition, the company will record as appropriate under the equity method of accounting its approximate 26 percent share of the redemption effects recognized by Dynegy.
Future temporary changes in the estimated fair values of the new securities will be reported in Other Comprehensive Income. However, if future declines in fair value are deemed to be other than temporary, such declines would be recorded against income. Interest that accrues on the notes and dividends payable on the preferred stock will be recognized in income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources |
Cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $3.9 billion at June 30, 2003 up $147 million from year-end 2002. Cash provided by operating activities was about $7.1 billion in the first half of 2003, compared with $3.7 billion in the year-ago period, reflecting significantly improved earnings. Cash provided by asset sales was $165 million in the first half of 2003, compared with $2.2 billion in the
29
Dividends. During the first six months of 2003, the company paid dividends of $1.5 billion to common stockholders. On July 30, 2003, ChevronTexaco declared a quarterly dividend of 73 cents per share, an increase of 3 cents per share from the preceding quarter, payable on September 10, 2003.
Debt and Capital Lease Obligations. ChevronTexacos total debt and capital lease obligations were $13.1 billion at June 30, 2003, down from $16.3 billion at year-end 2002. In the first half of 2003, net repayments of $3.4 billion in short-term debt and $1.0 billion in long-term debt and other financing obligations were partially offset by proceeds of $1.1 billion from the issuance of new long-term debt. New issuances of long-term debt during the first half of 2003 included $750 million of 3.375 percent ChevronTexaco Capital Company notes due in February 2008, $265 million of new Philippine debt, and $18 million of individually smaller issues. Proceeds from the ChevronTexaco Capital Company note issue were used to retire commercial paper. Repayments of long-term debt during the quarter included $430 million of Texaco Capital Inc. bonds, $143 million of Philippine debt, $110 million of ChevronTexaco Corporation 8.11 percent notes, $107 million of Nigerian debt and $77 million of individually smaller issues. Additionally, a $210 million payment was made to the Republic of Kazakhstan relating to the companys 1993 acquisition of its interest in the TCO joint venture. Also included in the reduction in the companys long-term debt levels was a non-cash reduction of $50 million of ESOP debt. In July, the company issued redemption notices for the early repayment of $225 million fixed coupon debt in August.
The companys debt due within 12 months, consisting primarily of commercial paper and the current portion of long-term debt, totaled $5.9 billion at June 30, 2003, down from $9.5 billion at December 31, 2002. Of this total short-term debt, $4.3 billion and $4.1 billion was reclassified to long-term at June 30, 2003, and December 31, 2002, respectively. Settlement of these obligations was not expected to require the use of working capital in 2003, as the company had the intent and the ability, as evidenced by committed credit facilities, to refinance them on a long-term basis. The companys practice has been to continually refinance its commercial paper, maintaining levels management believes appropriate.
At the end of the second quarter 2003, ChevronTexaco had $4.3 billion in committed credit facilities with various major banks, which permit the refinancing of short-term obligations on a long-term basis. These facilities support commercial paper borrowing and also can be used for general credit requirements. No borrowings were outstanding under these facilities at June 30, 2003. In addition, ChevronTexaco had three existing effective shelf registrations on file with the SEC that together will permit additional registered offerings up to an aggregate $2.0 billion of debt securities.
ChevronTexacos senior debt is rated AA by Standard and Poors Corporation and Aa2 by Moodys Investor Service, except for senior debt of Texaco Inc. which is rated Aa3. ChevronTexacos U.S. commercial paper is rated A-1+ by Standard and Poors and Prime 1 by Moodys, and the companys Canadian commercial paper is rated R-1 (middle) by Dominion Bond Rating Service. All of these ratings denote high-quality, investment-grade securities.
The companys future debt level is dependent primarily on results of operations, the capital-spending program and cash that may be generated from asset dispositions. The company believes it has substantial borrowing capacity to meet unanticipated cash requirements, and during periods of low prices for crude oil and natural gas and narrow margins for refined products and commodity chemicals, it has the flexibility to increase borrowings and/or modify capital spending plans to continue paying the common stock dividend and maintain the companys high-quality debt ratings.
Current Ratio current assets divided by current liabilities. The current ratio was 1.1 at June 30, 2003, compared with 0.9 at December 31, 2002, and benefited from significantly lower short-term debt. However, the current ratio was adversely affected in all periods presented by including inventories valued on a LIFO
30
Debt Ratio total debt divided by total debt plus equity. This ratio was 28 percent at June 30, 2003, compared with 34 percent at year-end 2002, reflecting the reduction in overall debt levels and increase in stockholders equity in the first six months of 2003.
Dynegy. In August, the company completed an agreement with Dynegy to exchange its Series B Preferred Dynegy Stock for an aggregate of $850 million in cash and new Dynegy securities. In the restructuring, ChevronTexaco received from Dynegy $225 million in cash, $225 million of Junior Unsubordinated Notes due 2016 and $400 million of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. See pages 8 to 9 and 28 for further information on this restructuring and other matters relating to the companys investment in Dynegy.
Pension Obligations. Based on the expected changes in plan asset values and pension obligations in 2003, the company does not believe any significant funding of its U.S. pension plans will be required during the year. However, the company periodically evaluates the economic benefits of making voluntary funding contributions to its pension plans, in advance of those that would otherwise be required. In August, the company made a voluntary funding contribution of approximately $150 million to its main U.S. pension plan. Additional funding may be required in subsequent periods if investment returns are insufficient to offset increases in the plans obligations.
Capital and exploratory expenditures, including the companys share of affiliates expenditures, were $3.5 billion in the first half of 2003, compared with $4.3 billion in last years first half. Expenditures for international exploration and production projects were $2.0 billion 58 percent of the total expenditures reflecting the companys continued emphasis on increasing international oil and gas production. In the first half of 2002, capital expenditures included more than $400 million for the acquisition of assets associated with the Captain Field in the North Sea that were previously leased and an approximate $200 million additional investment in the companys Dynegy affiliate.

Litigation and Other Contingencies |
Unocal Patent. Chevron, Texaco and four other oil companies (refiners) filed suit in 1995, contesting the validity of a patent (393 patent) granted to Unocal Corporation (Unocal) for certain reformulated gasoline blends. ChevronTexaco sells reformulated gasolines in California in certain months of the year. In March 2000, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld a September 1998 District Court decision that Unocals patent was valid and enforceable and assessed damages of 5.75 cents per gallon for gasoline produced during the summer of 1996, which infringed on the claims of the patent. In February 2001, the U.S. Supreme Court concluded it would not review the lower courts ruling, and the case was sent back to the District Court for an accounting of all infringing gasoline produced after August 1, 1996. The District Court has now ruled that the per-gallon damages awarded by the jury are limited to infringement that occurs in California only. Additionally, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) granted two petitions by the refiners to re-examine the validity of Unocals 393 patent and has now twice rejected all of the claims in the 393 patent. Those rejections have been appealed by Unocal to the USPTO Board of Appeals. The District Court judge requested further briefing and advised that she would not enter a final judgment in this case until the USPTO had completed its re-examination of the 393 patent. During 2002 and 2003, the USPTO granted two petitions for reexamination of another Unocal patent, the 126 patent. The USPTO has rejected the validity of the claims of the 126 patent, which could affect a larger share of U.S. gasoline production. Separately, in March 2003, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed a complaint against Unocal alleging that its conduct during the pendency of the patents was in violation of antitrust law. The complaint seeks to enjoin Unocal from collecting royalties on its patents, effectively rendering them unenforceable. Trial is set for November 2003.
Unocal has obtained additional patents that could affect a larger share of U.S. gasoline production. ChevronTexaco believes these additional patents are invalid, unenforceable and/or not infringed. The companys financial exposure in the event of unfavorable conclusions to the patent litigation and regulatory reviews may include royalties, plus interest, for production of gasoline that is proved to have infringed the patents. The competitive and financial effects on the companys refining and marketing operations, while presently indeterminable, could be material. ChevronTexaco has been accruing in the normal course of business any future estimated liability for potential infringement of the 393 patent covered by the 1998 trial courts ruling. In 2000, prior to the merger, Chevron and Texaco made payments to Unocal totaling approximately $30 million for the original court ruling, including interest and fees.
MTBE. Another issue involving the company is the petroleum industrys use of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) as a gasoline additive and its potential environmental impact through seepage into groundwater. Along with other oil companies, the company is a party to lawsuits and claims related to the use of the chemical MTBE in certain oxygenated gasolines. These actions may require the company to correct or ameliorate the alleged effects on the environment of prior release of MTBE by the company or other parties. Additional lawsuits and claims related to the use of MTBE, including personal-injury claims, may be filed in the future. The companys ultimate exposure related to these lawsuits and claims is not currently determinable, but could be material to net income in any one period. ChevronTexaco has reduced the use of MTBE in gasoline it manufactures in the United States. California has directed that MTBE be phased out of the manufacturing process by the end of 2003, and the company intends to comply with this mandate. In the first quarter 2003, the company completed the conversion to marketing motor gasoline with ethanol as an oxygenate instead of MTBE in southern California, and will complete the changeover in northern California later in the year.
Income Taxes. The U.S. federal income tax liabilities have been settled through 1996 for ChevronTexaco (formerly Chevron), 1993 for ChevronTexaco Global Energy Inc. (formerly Caltex), and 1991 for Texaco Inc. The companys California franchise tax liabilities have been settled through 1991 for Chevron and 1987 for Texaco.
Settlement of open tax years, as well as tax issues in other countries where the company conducts its businesses, is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the
32
Guarantees. The company and its subsidiaries have certain other contingent liabilities with respect to guarantees, direct or indirect, of debt of affiliated companies or others and long-term unconditional purchase obligations and commitments, throughput agreements and take-or-pay agreements, some of which relate to suppliers financing arrangements. Under the terms of the guarantee arrangements, generally the company would be required to perform should the affiliated company or third party fail to fulfill its obligations under the arrangements. In some cases, the guarantee arrangements have recourse provisions that would enable the company to recover any payments made under the terms of the guarantees from securities held of the guaranteed parties assets.
Indemnities. The company also provided certain indemnities of contingent liabilities of Equilon and Motiva to Shell Oil Company and Saudi Refining Inc. in connection with the February 2002 sale of the companys interests in those investments. The indemnities cover contingent general liabilities, certain contingent environmental liabilities and liabilities associated with the Unocal patent litigation. The company would be required to perform should the contingent general liabilities become actual liabilities within 18 months of the sale and could be required to make maximum future payments of $300 million. The company has paid approximately $10 million under these contingencies but has not recorded additional liabilities for these contingencies. There are no recourse provisions enabling recovery of any amounts from third parties nor are any assets held as collateral. Within five years of the February 2002 sale, at the buyers option, the company also may be required to purchase certain assets from Shell Oil Company for their net book value, as determined at the time of the companys purchase.
The indemnities pertaining to the contingent environmental liabilities relate to assets originally contributed by Texaco to the Equilon and Motiva joint ventures and environmental conditions that existed prior to the formation of Equilon and Motiva or that occurred during the periods of ChevronTexacos ownership interests in the joint ventures. In general, the environmental conditions or events that are subject to these indemnities must have arisen prior to December 12, 2001. Claims relating to Equilon must be asserted no later than February 13, 2009, and claims relating to Motiva must be asserted no later than February 13, 2012. Under the terms of the indemnities, there is no maximum limit on the amount of potential future payments. The company has not recorded any liabilities for possible claims under these indemnities. The amounts indemnified are to be net of amounts recovered from insurance carriers and others and net of liabilities recorded by Equilon or Motiva prior to September 30, 2001, for any applicable incident. The company holds no assets as collateral and has made no payments under the indemnities.
Minority Interests. The company has commitments related to preferred shares of subsidiary companies, which are accounted for as minority interest. MVP Production Inc., a subsidiary, has variable rate cumulative preferred shares of $75 million owned by one minority holder. The shares are voting and are redeemable in 2003. Texaco Capital LLC, a wholly owned finance subsidiary, has issued $65 million of Deferred Preferred Shares, Series C. Dividends amounting to $59 million on Series C, at a rate of 7.17 percent compounded annually, will be paid at the redemption date of February 28, 2005, unless earlier redemption occurs. Early redemption may result upon the occurrence of certain specific events.
Environmental. The company is subject to loss contingencies pursuant to environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the company to take action to correct or ameliorate the effects on the environment of prior release of chemical or petroleum substances, including MTBE, by the company or other parties. Such contingencies may exist for various sites, including but not limited to: Superfund sites and refineries, oil fields, service stations, terminals, and land development areas, whether operating, closed or sold. The amount of such future cost is indeterminable due to such factors as the unknown magnitude of possible contamination, the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions that may be required, the determination of the companys liability in proportion to other responsible parties, and the extent to which such costs are recoverable from third parties. While the company has provided for known environmental obligations that are probable and reasonably estimable, the amount of additional future costs may be material to results of operations in the period in which they are recognized. The company does not expect these costs
33
Financial Instruments. The company believes it has no material market or credit risks to its operations, financial position or liquidity as a result of its commodities and other derivatives activities, including forward exchange contracts and interest rate swaps. However, the results of operations and the financial position of certain equity affiliates may be affected by their business activities involving the use of derivative instruments.
Global Operations. ChevronTexaco and its affiliates have operations in over 180 countries. Areas in which the company and its affiliates have significant operations include the United States of America, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Norway, Denmark, France, Partitioned Neutral Zone between Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, Republic of Congo, Angola, Nigeria, Chad, Equatorial Guinea, Democratic Republic of Congo, South Africa, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, Singapore, China, Thailand, Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Trinidad and Tobago and South Korea.
The companys Tengizchevroil affiliate operates in Kazakhstan. The companys Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC affiliate manufactures and markets a wide range of petrochemicals and plastics on a worldwide basis, with manufacturing facilities in existence or under construction in the United States, Puerto Rico, Singapore, China, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Mexico and Belgium.
The companys operations, particularly exploration and production, can be affected by changing economic, regulatory and political environments in the various countries in which it operates, including the United States. As has occurred in the past, actions could be taken by host governments to increase public ownership of the companys partially- or wholly-owned businesses, and/or to impose additional taxes or royalties on the companys operations.
In certain locations, host governments have imposed restrictions, controls and taxes, and in others, political conditions have existed that may threaten the safety of employees and the companys continued presence in those countries. Internal unrest or strained relations between a host government and the company or other governments may affect the companys operations. Those developments have, at times, significantly affected the companys related operations and results, and are carefully considered by management when evaluating the level of current and future activity in such countries.
Equity Redetermination. For oil and gas producing operations, ownership agreements may provide for periodic reassessments of equity interests in estimated oil and gas reserves. These activities, individually or together, may result in gains or losses that could be material to earnings in any given period. One such equity redetermination process has been under way since 1996 for ChevronTexacos interests in four producing zones at the Naval Petroleum Reserve at Elk Hills in California, for the time when the remaining interests in these zones were owned by the U.S. Department of Energy. A wide range remains for a possible net settlement amount for the four zones. ChevronTexaco currently estimates its maximum possible net before-tax liability at less than $200 million. At the same time, a possible maximum net amount that could be owed to ChevronTexaco is estimated at more than $50 million. The timing of the settlement and the exact amount within this range of estimates are uncertain.
Other Contingencies. ChevronTexaco receives claims from and submits claims to customers, trading partners, U.S. federal, state and local regulatory bodies, host governments, contractors, insurers, and suppliers. The amounts of these claims, individually and in the aggregate, may be significant and take lengthy periods to resolve.
The company and its affiliates also continue to review and analyze their operations and may close, abandon, sell, exchange, acquire or restructure assets to achieve operational or strategic benefits and to improve competitiveness and profitability. These activities, individually or together, may result in gains or losses in future periods.

Accounting for Mineral Interests Investment |
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been discussing with certain public companies in the oil and gas and mining industries the proper accounting for, and reporting of, acquired oil and gas mineral rights held under lease and other contractual arrangements under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 141, Business Combinations (FAS 141) and FASB Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Intangible Assets (FAS 142). These accounting standards became effective for the company on July 1, 2001, and January 1, 2002, respectively.
At issue is whether such oil and gas mineral rights held under lease and other contractual arrangements should be classified on the balance sheet as part of Properties, plant and equipment or as Intangible assets with related disclosures. The company will continue to classify these costs as Properties, plant and equipment under the companys existing accounting policy until the SEC, or other standard-setting bodies assigned responsibility for resolving this issue, provide definitive guidance. Any change would have no impact either on the companys reported net income or cash flows in future periods. For ChevronTexaco, the net book value of this category of oil and gas mineral rights held under lease and other contractual arrangements at June 30, 2003, for its oil and gas and coal mining operations was approximately $4 billion.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Information about market risks for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 does not differ materially from that discussed under Item 7A of ChevronTexacos Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2002.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
ChevronTexaco Corporations Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)), as of the end of the period covered by this report, have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the companys disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and designed to ensure that material information relating to the company and its consolidated subsidiaries required to be included in the companys periodic filings under the Exchange Act would be made known to them by others within those entities.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, there were no changes in the companys internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the companys internal control over financial reporting.
