I stop by here the other day for some gas and I have to say its a very nice store. One of Chevron's early predecessors, Star Oil, discovered oil at the Pico Canyon Oilfield in the Santa Susana Mountains north of Los Angeles in 1876. The 25 barrels of oil per day well marked the discovery of the Newhall Field, and is considered by geophysicist Marius Vassiliou as the beginning of the modern oil industry in California.[5] Energy analyst Antonia Juhasz has said that while Star Oil's founders were influential in establishing an oil industry in California, Union Mattole Company discovered oil in the state eleven years prior.[6] In September 1879, Charles N. Felton, Lloyd Tevis, George Loomis and others created the Pacific Coast Oil Company, which acquired the assets of Star Oil[5] with $1 million in funding.[7] Pacific Coast Oil became the largest oil interest in California,[7] by time it was acquired by Standard Oil for $761,000 in 1900.[5] Pacific Coast operated independently and retained its name until 1906, when it was merged with a Standard Oil subsidiary and it became Standard Oil Company (California) or California Standard.[8][9] Another predecessor, Texas Fuel Company, was founded in 1901 in Beaumont, Texas as an oil equipment vendor by "Buckskin Joe". The founder's nickname came from being harsh and aggressive.[6] Texas Fuel worked closely with Chevron. In 1936 it formed a joint venture with California Standard named Caltex, to drill and produce oil in Saudi Arabia.[10] According to energy analyst and activist shareholder Antonia Juhasz,[11][12][13] the Texas Fuel Company and California Standard were often referred to as the "terrible twins" for their cutthroat business practices.[14] The Texas Fuel Company was renamed the Texas Company, and later renamed Texaco.[9][14] Formation of the Chevron name A Chevron station branded as "Standard" in Las Vegas In 1911, Standard Oil Co. (California) was severed from its parent corporation, Standard Oil, as a result of the federal government's successful lawsuit against Standard Oil under the Sherman Antitrust Act. It went on to become part of the "Seven Sisters", which dominated the world oil industry in the early 20th century.[15] In 1926, the company changed its name to Standard Oil Co. of California (SOCAL). By the terms of the breakup of Standard Oil, Standard of California could use the Standard name only within its original geographic area of the Pacific coast states, plus Nevada and Arizona; outside that area, it had to use another name. The Chevron name came into use for some of its retail products in the 1930s. The name Calso was also used from 1946 to 1955 in states outside its native West Coast territory.[16][17][18][better source needed] Standard Oil Company of California ranked 75th among United States corporations in the value of World War II military production contracts.[19] In 1933, Saudi Arabia granted California Standard a concession to find oil, which led to the discovery of oil in 1938. In 1948, California Standard discovered the world's largest oil field in Saudi Arabia, Ghawar Field.[20] California Standard's subsidiary, California-Arabian Standard Oil Company, grew over the years and became the Arabian American Oil Company (ARAMCO) in 1944. In 1973, the Saudi government began buying into ARAMCO. By 1980, the company was entirely owned by the Saudis, and in 1988, its name was changed to Saudi Arabian Oil Company--Saudi Aramco.[citation needed] Standard Oil of California and Gulf Oil merged in 1984, which was the largest merger in history at that time. To comply with U.S. antitrust law,California Standard divested many of Gulf's operating subsidiaries, and sold some Gulf stations and a refinery in the eastern United States. (The refinery is currently owned by Sunoco.) Among the assets sold off were Gulf's retail outlets in Gulf's home market of Pittsburgh, where Chevron lacks a retail presence but does retain a regional headquarters there as of 2013, partially for Marcellus Shale-related drilling.[21] The same year, Standard Oil of California also took the opportunity to change its legal name to Chevron Corporation, since it had already been using the well-known "Chevron" retail brand name for decades. Chevron would sell the Gulf Oil trademarks for the entire U.S. to Cumberland Farms, the parent company of Gulf Oil LP, in 2010 after Cumberland Farms had a license to the Gulf trademark in the Northeastern United States since 1986.[22] In 1996 Chevron transferred its natural gas gathering, operating and marketing operation to NGC Corporation (later Dynegy) in exchange for a roughly 25% equity stake in NGC.[23] In a merger completed February 1, 2000, Illinova Corp. became a wholly owned subsidiary of Dynegy Inc. and Chevron's stake increased up to 28%.[24] However, in May 2007 Chevron sold its stake in the company for approximately $985 million, resulting in a gain of $680 million. read more

I used to come here for gas and beer as I live very close by. Last year when I came inside the store for beer I saw a wet floor sign. I asked the store attendant if it is ok to walk to the cooler to get to the beer. He said yes so I carefully walked in. After I got the beer, on my way back out I slipped and fell very hard to the floor and 1 or 2 of the beer bottle broke. As I was slowly got up, the really rude attendant, without asking if I was alright, loudly said "oh no, we just mopped the floor. You now made a big mess". I was not happy with his words but politely said "sorry, it was slippery" He then said "you break you pay is our story policy". I asked him if I could get another pack since the one fell all wet and had broken glass in it. He said "no, you have to pay for the one you broke". I could not stand it any more and told him I am leaving and not buying or paying anything. He stood by the door and demanded that either I pay or he will call the police. I told him "call the police". About 10 or 15 minutes later the 2 policemen arrived. I asked the police if I have to pay, and if so, I want a report. The police told me they do not want to waste time for the report and it is up to the attendant if he wants me to pay or not but he has no right to keep me there if I leave him my ID. I then asked the attendant (who claimed he was the store shift manager) if he wants my ID. He then said "no. You can go" I should have contacted a lawyer but chose not to. That rude and stupid "shift manager" is not the store owner and will never become one!!!!! I never came back there and not sure if the guy still there! read more

I put $20 gas in my car and then it wouldn't start. One of the employees was very helpful and even had his wife come from a few blocks away to help jump start the car. When that didn't work the manager refused to let me borrow the store phone to call my family members for help! I get that there are reasons to deny use of the phone to customers but when a customer truly has an important need there's a judgment call that needs to be made. I've gassed up there on average once a week for years now and will never gas up there again. read more
