據阿拉伯貿易網2021年8月 2日報道，美國雪佛龍公司和法國道達爾能源公司時下正與印度石油天然氣公司（ONGC）就印度上游項目進行單獨的合作談判，這表明近幾年來外國能源公司對印度油氣勘探領域的關注越來越多。

　　《經濟時報》援引消息人士的話報道說，盡管外國能源公司對印度能源勘探領域沒有表現出多大興趣，但雪佛龍公司高管上月曾與印度ONGC討論過此類機會。 報告還稱，法國道達爾能源公司已經成立了一個由主要高管組成的技術委員會，以探索此類機會。

　　ONGC于2019年與?？松梨诠竞炇鹆艘环菡徑鈧渫?MoU)，以獲得其開發海上區塊資源的專業知識和技術。 該協議規定，ONGC和埃克森美孚公司將聯合競標印度的油氣勘探資產。

　　由于原油價格反彈將利潤和現金流帶回了疫情前的水平，雪佛龍公司日前公布了6個季度以來的最高利潤，并加入了石油業以股票回購獎勵投資者的熱潮。 雪佛龍公司去年削減了支出，以允許利潤在每桶50美元以上產生。 較低的成本和較高的油價產生了兩年來最高的現金流，使公司能夠削減債務并恢復股票回購。

　　今年3月，雪佛龍公司還制定了一項計劃，在不大幅增加支出的情況下，擴大油氣生產至2025年，并限制碳排放的增長速度。

　　Chevron, Total eye upstream projects in India

　　Chevron and Total Energies are engaged in separate partnership talks with onGC for upstream projects in India in a sign of growing interest in the country’s exploration sector that has barely received attention from foreign energy firms in recent years, said a report by The Economic Times.

　　While foreign energy companies have not shown much interest in India's energy exploration sector, American company Chevron's senior executives had discussed such opportunities with onGC last month, the newspapers cited sources as saying. French company Total has formed a technical committee of key executives to explore such opportunities, the report added.

　　onGC signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) in 2019 with Exxon Mobil to receive its expertise and technology for developing resources in offshore blocks. It provided for onGC and ExxonMobil jointly bidding for exploration assets in India.

　　Chevron had reported its highest profit in six quarters and joined an oil industry stampede to reward investors with share buybacks, as rebounding crude oil prices carried earnings and cash flow to pre-pandemic levels. The company last year slashed spending to allow profits to flow at above $50 a barrel. Lower costs and higher prices generated the highest cash flow in two years, enabling the company to pare debt and resume share repurchases.

　　The company had also outlined a plan, in March, to expand oil and gas production through 2025 without spending significantly more and to limit the pace of growth of its carbon emissions.
