Efficiency initiatives removed $3B in annual costs and improved Permian capital efficiency by 25%, but these savings are modest relative to CVX’s $12B quarterly earnings. Despite tailwinds like data center power demand and project IRRs in the mid-teens, the upside is modest versus the downside risk if oil prices normalize. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha
