In downstream, Chevron owns and operates an Oronite facility that develops, manufactures and markets performance-enhancing additives for lubricating oils and fuels. Oronite products combine innovative technology and the latest research to help maximize the reliability, efficiency and life of engines. The result is fewer emissions and less impact on the environment.
