Deal targets a lower cost base

Chevron subsidiaries entered definitive agreements with Hess Midstream on October 6, 2026. The transaction includes USD 200.00 million in cash consideration and is expected to reduce Chevron's Bakken unit midstream costs by 50.00 percent.

The deal would also transfer Chevron's Hess Midstream interests and DJ Basin crude oil assets. Chevron expects to deconsolidate USD 3.70 billion of Hess Midstream debt and lift return on capital employed by 0.50 percentage points, while estimating a one-time after-tax loss of USD 3.00 billion to USD 4.00 billion at closing, according to Chevron.

Three dates frame the stock

On July 31, 2026, Chevron reported second-quarter adjusted earnings per share of USD 6.06 against a USD 5.55 consensus estimate, while revenue reached USD 67.20 billion versus USD 62.72 billion, as reported by MarketBeat.

When are the next key dates?

Chevron's next quarterly earnings announcement is scheduled for October 30, 2026, before the market opens, with the conference call at 11:00 a.m. ET, according to Chevron. The Hess Midstream transaction is expected to close by year-end 2026.

What does the deal mean for earnings?

The immediate trade-off is a projected 50.00 percent reduction in Bakken unit midstream costs against the estimated USD 3.00 billion to USD 4.00 billion one-time after-tax loss. For investors, the October 30 report will show whether the second-quarter revenue increase of 57.40 percent can be followed by another period of stronger operating results.
