Big Oil Made Record 2022 Profits While Fleecing California Families​

Published: Jan 31, 2023

SACRAMENTO – Oil company profit reports for 2022 are rolling in and the numbers tell the story we’ve suspected all along: Big Oil reaped record amounts as California families were fleeced at the pump.
Five major oil companies have reported their 2022 profits, smashing last year’s highs:
  • Exxon: $55.7 billion — setting a company record and bringing in $6.3 million an hour
  • Chevron: $36.5 billion – doubling their 2021 profits, with executives flaunting their “outstanding results” in an earnings call
  • Marathon: $14.5 billion — Q4 profit of $3.32 billion surged 331% from previous year
  • Valero: $11.6 billion – 866% higher than the previous year
  • Phillips 66: $11 billion — Q4 profit of $1.9 billion up 46% over Q4 2021
“While Californians were being ripped off at the pump last year, Big Oil’s bottom line ballooned to levels never seen before in history – making record profits off the backs of hard-working families. Then they flaunt it to their investors while refusing to even answer Californians’ questions about high prices. They’re ripping you off. That’s why, with the Legislature, we’re going to pass a price gouging penalty to hold Big Oil accountable,” said Governor Gavin Newsom.
