Occidental Vs. Chevron: Buffett Bought Both, But Which Is Better For You?
CVX, OXY
Published: June 03, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Neutral

Occidental and Chevron are two excellent but very different oil companies. Chevron is an excellent dividend/total return stock, while OXY should provide capital gains as well. OXY is somewhat misdescribed as an integrated oil company; it's actually an odd but highly efficient exploration and production company with no downstream business but a midstream chemical unit. OXY is best understood by studying its long-term debt levels and pulling from cash flow numbers the exact times of acquiring and repaying debt.

Occidental: Cash Inflection Coming, But Is It Enough
OXY
Published: May 15, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

Occidental's 2025 plan shows rig reductions are driven by efficiency, not production cuts, with volumes maintained and well costs declining. Despite improved free cash flow prospects from non-oil projects in 2026, meaningful shareholder returns are unlikely before 2027. Occidental's balance sheet and shareholder returns lag peers, making it less attractive than majors like Chevron, Exxon, or Shell for diversified exposure.
