The partnership provides crude oil, natural gas, and water-related midstream services, and owns stakes in oil pipelines in the DJ Basin in Colorado and the Delaware Basin in Texas.

In October 2020, Chevron acquired a stake in Noble Energy, including large shale and international natural gas reserves, in an all-stock transaction valued at $5bn.

Chevron said that the deal provides it with low-cost, proved reserves and attractive undeveloped resources, complementing its upstream portfolio.
