And exactly 203 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 3: how high will they go. The recent surge in crude 204 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 3: costs is raising those questions now. Chevron CEO Mike Worth 205 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 3: joined Bloomberg Z Alex Steel and Guy Johnson for a 206 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 3: conversation on oil supply and robust global demand. They began 207 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 3: with the question, will oil reach one hundred dollars a barrel? 208 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 5: Sure looks like it. We're certainly moving in that direction. 209 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 6: The momentum, you know, supply is tightening, inventories are drawing. 210 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 6: These things happen gradually conceded building, and so I think 211 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 6: the you know, the trends would suggest that we're certainly 212 00:10:58,360 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 6: on our way. 213 00:10:58,760 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 5: We're getting close. 214 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 15: What impact do you think a hundred bucks a barrel 215 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 15: will have on the US economy? What impact will I 216 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 15: have on the global economy? 217 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 6: Certainly those are higher prices than we tend to see 218 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 6: out over the long term, and so I think it 219 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 6: will have some effect on the economy. But you know, 220 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 6: we've had relatively higher oil prices here now for most 221 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 6: of this year and certainly. 222 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 5: All of last year. 223 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 6: The recession that everyone's been talking about hasn't arrived, and 224 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 6: so I think the underlying drivers of the economy in 225 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 6: the US, and frankly globally remain pretty healthy. So I 226 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 6: think it's a drag on the economy, but one that 227 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 6: thus far, I think the economy has been able to tolerate. 228 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 5: Have you adjusted your price deck? 229 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 14: Meaning that's my question being like, are these higher prices 230 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 14: sustainable for the long term. 231 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 6: We take a very long term view on supply, demand, policy, technology. 232 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 5: We haven't changed our long term. 233 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,599 Speaker 6: Price but we really don't change that very often, and 234 00:11:58,000 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 6: not in response to it. 235 00:11:59,120 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 5: Are short. 236 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 6: We've been in a volatile market really going back to 237 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 6: the pandemic when things came down, the recovery, when it 238 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 6: was high, the war. So this has been a period 239 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 6: of time where prices have been unpredictable, involidile, and not 240 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 6: what you would call mid cycle. 241 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 15: Mike, if I worked for you and I work for Chevron, 242 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 15: would this be my cue to say, Mike, can I 243 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 15: have a pay rise please? 244 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 6: I think you're making reference to what's going on in 245 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 6: different parts of the world. We're seeing organized labor in 246 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 6: many different industries now kind of assertively step forward and say, look, 247 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 6: we want to be compensated. We see the inflation in 248 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 6: the economy, and when we've seen companies recover, we've had 249 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 6: a very strong pay program last year of our employees. 250 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 6: We tried to stay very competitive and I would expect we. 251 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 5: Will continue to do so. So far, cargoes have not 252 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 5: yet been impacted. You're using some non union workers, right, 253 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 5: Is there a point where that would change? 254 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 6: Well, we certainly hope that what we'll see is a 255 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 6: negotiated agreement. Others in Australia have reached agreement with the unions. 256 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 6: We've been at the table bargaining in good faith and 257 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 6: that's our desired outcome. We do prepare to maintain operations 258 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 6: even during an industrial action, and thus far we've been 259 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 6: able to successfully do so in Australia. 260 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 15: Do you think if I'm sitting here in Europe I 261 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 15: should worry about what's happening here? Is this going to 262 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 15: be a problem when we get to winter? 263 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:17,559 Speaker 5: Do you think, Mike? 264 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 6: Well, last winter Europe came through better than I think 265 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 6: most thought. 266 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 5: Guy. 267 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 6: Now, inventories were high going into the winter because Russian 268 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 6: gas had been flowing in. Industrial demand really came off, 269 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 6: and then it was a relatively mild winter. We certainly 270 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 6: can't count on all of those things happening again, but 271 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 6: gas inventories in Europe are pretty strong. Right now relative 272 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 6: to history, and so I would say Europe is set 273 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 6: up much better than it was last year. The weather 274 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 6: is always difficult to predict, but I feel like Europe 275 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 6: is about as good a place as it could hope 276 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 6: to be at this point in time. 277 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 2: What are you noticing in China, Whether it's ellen, geer, 278 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 2: oil demand Poole. 279 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 5: Well, it's been gradual. 280 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 6: It's been slower than people expected it, but it is 281 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 6: coming back, and I think that's one of the reasons 282 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 6: why you've seen crude oil prices tightening. Is that inventory 283 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 6: restocking you think, or is that end user demands. 284 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 5: Always a little bit hard to tell. 285 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 6: The data out of China isn't exactly as transparent as 286 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 6: it is in other parts of the world, but I 287 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 6: think it's probably indicative of an economy that is finding 288 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 6: some traction and is moving forward. We're going to see 289 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 6: record oil demand this year, and so as long as 290 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 6: the global economy stays relatively healthy, demand for these products 291 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 6: steadily marches forward increasingly. 292 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 15: It looks like climate change is going to be litigated. 293 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 15: Is litigation the right way of dealing with this. 294 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 5: No, it's not. 295 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 6: Look this is one of many such actions that we've 296 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 6: seen over the years. Ironically, a number of them filed 297 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 6: on behalf of people who have actually profited from and 298 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 6: encouraged energy development. Climate change is a global issue. It 299 00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 6: calls for a coordinated global policy response, not piecemeal mitigation 300 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 6: that benefits attorneys and politicians. 301 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 5: So we will, we do have smart lawyers. We will 302 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 5: deal with the lawsuits. 303 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 6: But more importantly, we're working on finding ways to meet 304 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 6: today's energy demand with energy that has less carbon intensity 305 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 6: and still is affordable and reliable for the economy, even 306 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 6: as we're investing in new technology to build a new 307 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 6: energy system over time that is inherently lower carbon. 308 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg day Break Today, your morning brief on 309 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: the stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 310 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 311 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 312 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 2: get your podcasts. 313 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 314 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 315 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 316 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: Bloomberg one six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety 317 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: sixty in. 318 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 2: San Francisco, our flagship New York station is also available 319 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 2: on your Amazon Alection d vices.
