Chevron umemezela ukuhlela kabusha
Global oil giant Chevron is reportedly undergoing its largest-ever restructuring, planning to cut its global workforce by 20% by the end of 2026. The company will also reduce local and regional business units, shifting to a more centralized model to improve performance.
NgokukaChevron Vice Chairman uMark Nelson, le nkampani ihlela ukunciphisa inani lezingxenye zebhizinisi eziphezulu ukusuka ku-18–20 eminyakeni embalwa edlule kuya ku-3–5 kuphela.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ekuqaleni konyaka, iChevron imemezele izinhlelo zokumba eNamibia, yatshala imali ekuhloleni eNigeria nase-Angola, futhi ngenyanga edlule yaqinisekisa amalungelo okuhlola ezindaweni eziyisishiyagalolunye ezisemanzini emfuleni i-Amazon eBrazil.
Ngokuhlanza imisebenzi nokwenza kube lula ukusebenza, iChevron ikakhulukazi iyashesha ukuhweba nokuthuthukisa—ukushintsha kwesu okukhombisa incwadi entsha yokuphila embonini yamandla ezikhathini ezinzima.
Cost-cutting to address investor pressure
Chevron's huidige strategiese herstrukturering het een van die kern doelwitte om tot $3 miljard in koste te verminder teen 2026. Hierdie teiken word gedryf deur diepgaande bedryf tendense en markkragte.
Mu myaka y'ib最近, ibiciro by'amasoko y'ibitoro ku isi byagiye bigira impinduka nyinshi, biguma mu bihe bibi igihe kirekire. Muri icyo gihe, impungenge ziri gukura ku bijyanye n'ahazaza h'ibikomoka ku ngufu z'ibitoro byatumye abashoramari basaba cyane inyungu zikomeye z'amafaranga ku bigo by'ingufu bikomeye. Abashoramari ubu barimo gukangurira izi sosiyete gukomeza kunoza imikorere no kugabanya ibiciro, kugira ngo habeho amafaranga ahagije yo kwishyura inyungu no kugura imigabane.
Under such market pressures, Chevron's stock performance faces significant challenges. Currently, energy stocks account for just 3.1% of the S&P 500 index - less than half their weighting from a decade ago. In July, while both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq hit record closing highs, energy stocks declined across the board: ExxonMobil and Occidental Petroleum fell over 1%, while Schlumberger, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips all weakened.
Chevron Vice Chairman Mark Nelson stated unequivocally in a Bloomberg interview: "If we want to remain competitive and stay as an investment option in the market, we must continuously improve efficiency and find new, better ways of working." To achieve this goal, Chevron has not only implemented deep structural reforms to its business operations but has also undertaken large-scale workforce reductions.
Ngomhla kaFebhuwari kulo nyaka, iChevron imemezele izinhlelo zokunciphisa abasebenzi bayo emhlabeni jikelele ngaphezu kuka-20%, okungase kuthinte abasebenzi abangu-9,000. Le nqubo yokunciphisa abasebenzi ayinangqondo futhi ibuhlungu, uNelson evuma, "Lezi yizinqumo ezinzima kithi, futhi asizithathi kalula." Nokho, ukusuka emqondweni wezokuphatha, ukunciphisa abasebenzi kusebenza njengenye yezinyathelo ezibalulekile zokufeza izinhloso zokunciphisa izindleko.
Ukwakhiwa Kwezentengiselwano: Ukuguqula Imodeli Yokusebenza
Ukuze kufezwe izinhloso ezimbili zokunciphisa izindleko nokuthuthukisa ukusebenza, iChevron isungule izinguquko eziyisisekelo emisebenzini yayo yebhizinisi - idlulela kumodeli yokuphatha egxile kakhulu kunaleyo eyayikhona ngaphambili.
Ku inhlangano yayo yokukhiqiza, iChevron izokwakha iyunithi eyahlukile yokwakha engxenyeni yolwandle ukuze iphathe izinsiza ngokuhlanganyela e-U.S. Gulf of Mexico, eNigeria, e-Angola, naseMpumalanga yeMediya. Ngasikhathi sinye, izinsiza ze-shale eTexas, eColorado, nase-Argentina zizohlanganiswa ngaphansi komnyango owodwa. Le nhlanganisela yezinsiza ezivela ezindaweni ezahlukene ihlose ukususa ukungasebenzi kahle ekwabelaneni kwezinsiza kanye nezinkinga zokubambisana ezidalwe yizigaba zezwe ezedlule, ngenkathi yehlisa izindleko zokusebenza ngokuphathwa okuhlanganisiwe.
Kwazulu-Natal izinsizakalo zayo, iChevron ihlela ukuhlanganisa izimali, izinsiza zabantu kanye nezokusebenza ze-IT ezazihlukene ezizweni eziningi zibe izikhungo zesevisi eManila naseBuenos Aires. Ngaphezu kwalokho, le nkampani izokwakha izikhungo eziphakathi kwezobunjiniyela eHouston naseBangalore, eNdiya.
Izi zikhungo zokusebenza ezihlanganisiwe kanye nezikhungo zobunjiniyela zizosisiza ukuthi sihlinzeke ngezindlela ezijwayelekile zokusebenza, sifeze izinzuzo zokukhula, sithuthukise ukusebenza kahle, futhi sinciphise umsebenzi ophindaphindiwe kanye nezinsiza ezilahlekile. Ngalesi simo sokuphathwa okuhlanganisiwe, iChevron ihlose ukuphula izithiyo zangaphambili ezichazwa yizikhungo zokuphatha ezinzima kanye nokuhamba kolwazi okungasebenzi kahle. Lokhu kuzovumela ukuvuselelwa okwenziwe kwelinye ibhizinisi ukuthi kuthuthukiswe ngokushesha kwezinye ngaphandle kokudinga ukuvunywa kokuphathwa okunamaphuzu amaningi kanye nokuhlelwa, ngaleyo ndlela kuthuthukiswe ikhono lokuvuselela lenkampani kanye nokuphendula emakethe.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, kulolu shintsho lwezinhlelo, iChevron ibeke umqondo omkhulu ekwakhiweni kwezobuchwepheshe, ibona lokhu njengomgibeli obalulekile wokuthuthukisa ukusebenza kahle, ukufinyelela ekunciphiseni izindleko, nokukhuthaza ukukhula kwebhizinisi.
Particularly noteworthy is how artificial intelligence has demonstrated remarkable value in Chevron's downstream operations. A prime example is the El Segundo Refinery in California, where employees utilize AI-powered mathematical models to determine optimal petroleum product blends in minimal time, thereby maximizing revenue potential.
Expansion Under Cost-Cutting Strategy
Medan i-akhula izindlela zokunciphisa izindleko nokuhlanganisa ibhizinisi, iChevron ayikwenzi lokho ngokuphambene namathuba okwandisa. Empeleni, phakathi kokuncintisana okwandayo emakethe yezezimali yomhlaba, le nkampani iqhubeka nokufuna izindlela ezintsha zokukhula—ihlela ngokucophelela imali ukuze iqinise futhi ithuthukise isikhundla sayo embonini.
Ekuqaleni, iChevron imemezele izinhlelo zokwenza imisebenzi yokubhoboza eNamibia. Leli zwe libonise amandla amakhulu ekuhloleni uphethiloli eminyakeni edlule, lathola ukunakwa okuvela ezinkampanini eziningi zamafutha zomhlaba. Le nhloso yeChevron ihlose ukusebenzisa izinzuzo zezinsiza zeNamibia ukuze kuthuthukiswe izisekelo ezintsha zokukhiqiza uwoyela nogesi, ngaleyo ndlela kwandiswe izinsiza kanye nokukhiqiza kwenkampani.
Ngokuhambisana, iChevron iqhubeka nokwandisa ukutshalwa kwezimali kokuhlola ezindaweni ezisemthethweni ze-oyili negesi ezifana neNigeria ne-Angola. Lezi zizwe zinezimali eziningi ze-hydrocarbon, lapho iChevron yakhe khona iminyaka eminingi yokusebenza kanye nobudlelwano obuqinile. Ngokutshalwa kwezimali okwengeziwe nokuhlola, le nkampani ilindele ukuthola eminye imithombo ye-oyili esezingeni eliphezulu ukuze ikhulise ingxenye yayo yemakethe kulezi zindawo futhi iqinise isikhundla sayo emkhakheni we-hydrocarbon e-Afrika.
Ngomnyaka ophelile, iChevron ithole amalungelo okucwaninga ezindaweni eziyisishiyagalolunye ezisemanzini eBrazil's Amazon River Mouth Basin ngohlelo lokuncintisana. Ngezakhiwo ezinkulu zasolwandle kanye namandla amaningi okukhishwa kwe-hydrocarbon, iBrazil imele umngcele obalulekile kuChevron. Ukuthola lawa malungelo okucwaninga kuzokwandisa kakhulu iphothifoliyo ye-Deepwater yomhlaba jikelele yenkampani.
Chevron izokwenza ukuthengwa kwayo kwe-$53 billion kweHess, ngemva kokuphumelela empini yomthetho ebalulekile ngokumelene nomncintiswano omkhulu i-Exxon Mobil ukuze ithole ukufinyelela ekutholeni kukawoyela okukhulu eminyakeni engama-decades.
Chevron is implementing business centralization and cost-cutting strategies to optimize its organizational structure and enhance operational efficiency, while actively pursuing expansion opportunities through increased global resource exploration and investment.
Ukuphuma phambili, ukuthi iChevron ingakwazi yini ukufinyelela ngempumelelo imigomo yayo yesu nokuzihlukanisa emakethe ebhujiswa kakhulu yokuncintisana kusala kungqikithi kubabukeli.
