Chevron Scotland to close office as part of restructuring

Chevron, the U.S. oil company, announced on Monday that it will close its Aberdeen office in Scotland. This move is part of the ongoing restructuring. Chevron's spokesperson stated in a press release that the closure of Aberdeen will occur between December 2025-2026. Chevron announced last year that it would sell the remaining UK North Sea oil assets, and leave the basin after 55 years to focus on assets with higher profits. The company has announced plans to cut up to $3 billion of costs by the end next year. This includes the layoff of up to 20% employees.

Chevron's presence in the UK will be maintained through its London office. When asked about the number of jobs that would be lost by closing the Aberdeen office, the spokesperson did not respond immediately. Reporting and writing by Shadia Nasralla, London; editing by Cynthia Osterman
