QUARTERLY RESULTS
Oil and Gas
Oil and gas pre-tax income was $934 million for the second quarter of 2025. Excluding items affecting comparability, the decrease in second quarter oil and gas income, compared to the first quarter of 2025, was due to lower commodity prices, partially offset by higher crude oil volumes and lower lease operating expense. For the second quarter of 2025, average WTI and Brent marker prices were $63.74 per barrel and $66.59 per barrel, respectively. Average worldwide realized crude oil prices decreased by 10% from the prior quarter to $63.76 per barrel.

OxyChem
OxyChem pre-tax income was $213 million for the second quarter of 2025. Excluding items affecting comparability, second quarter OxyChem income was relatively unchanged compared to the first quarter of 2025 and reflected negative inventory adjustments, offset by improved export demand for caustic soda and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
