Part I
ITEMS 1 AND 2. BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES
In this report, “Occidental”, “we” and “our” refers to Occidental Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation incorporated in 1986, or Occidental and one or more entities in which it owns a controlling interest (subsidiaries). Occidental conducts its operations through its various subsidiaries and affiliates. Occidental’s executive offices are located at 5 Greenway Plaza, Suite 110, Houston, Texas 77046; telephone (713) 215-7000.
| GENERAL |
Occidental’s principal businesses consist of three reporting segments: oil and gas, chemical and midstream and marketing. The oil and gas segment explores for, develops and produces oil (which includes condensate), natural gas liquids (NGL) and natural gas. The chemical segment (OxyChem) primarily manufactures and markets basic chemicals and vinyls. The midstream and marketing segment purchases, markets, gathers, processes, transports and stores oil (which includes condensate), NGL, natural gas, carbon dioxide (CO2) and power. It also optimizes its transportation and storage capacity, and invests in entities that conduct similar activities, such as Western Midstream Partners, L.P. (WES).
The midstream and marketing segment also includes Occidental’s low carbon ventures (OLCV) businesses. OLCV seeks to leverage Occidental’s legacy of carbon management expertise to develop carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) projects, including the commercialization of direct air capture (DAC) technology, and invests in other low-carbon technologies intended to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from our operations and strategically partner with other industries to help reduce their emissions.
On August 8, 2019, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated May 9, 2019, Occidental acquired all of the outstanding shares of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (Anadarko), through a transaction in which a wholly owned subsidiary of Occidental merged with and into Anadarko (the Acquisition). The Acquisition added to Occidental's oil and gas portfolio, primarily in the Permian Basin, DJ Basin, Gulf of Mexico and Algeria, and an interest in WES.
For further information regarding Occidental’s segments, geographic areas of operation and current developments, see the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section under Part II, Item 7, of this Form 10-K and Note 16 - Industry Segments and Geographic Areas in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
| HUMAN CAPITAL RESOURCES |
Occidental’s culture is built upon the following core values, and our employees are evaluated relative to these values:
■Lead with Passion
■Outperform Expectations
■Deliver Results Responsibly
■Unleash Opportunities
■Commit to Good
With this foundation, Occidental’s human capital resources and programs are managed by our human resources department, with support from business leaders across the company. Occidental’s senior management team plays a key role in setting and monitoring Occidental’s culture, values and broader human capital management practices, with oversight by our Board of Directors. Senior management and the Board of Directors also engage frequently on workforce-related topics.
DIVERSITY, INCLUSION AND BELONGING
Occidental’s culture of diversity, inclusion and belonging (DIB) supports an environment where employees’ differences are not only appreciated, but also celebrated and encouraged, with the goal that all employees are included and everyone feels that they belong. Occidental conducted a robust survey across the organization in 2020, the results of which were reviewed with our Board of Directors and became a basis for our company’s core values.

![]() | BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES |
Occidental’s human capital resources extend across several regions. Occidental has attracted, and continues to recruit, a diverse workforce of exceptional talent, including employees from many nations. This diversity enriches our culture, our employees' experiences on the job and contributes to an innovative and effective business model that encourages local communities to thrive. DIB powers our innovation and spirit of excellence, as well as our knowledge and results. Embedding DIB into our culture enhances Occidental’s collaboration, performance and growth and helps uphold our organizational values.
In the first quarter of 2021, Occidental established the DIB Advisory Board and the DIB Ambassador Committee. The DIB Advisory Board, which is chaired by Occidental’s President and CEO and includes members of senior leadership, provides DIB governance and oversight to ensure that Occidental’s integrated DIB strategy is executed and properly aligns with the organization’s mission, vision and strategic objectives. The DIB Ambassador Committee, which is chaired by Occidental’s Vice President of Diversity and Inclusion, consists of a diverse group of employee representatives from all business segments, domestic and international. This committee leads company-wide initiatives to raise DIB awareness through educational resources and programs. Robust educational sessions are available to our entire workforce for continued growth and development on topics such as inclusive leadership, diversity advocacy, recognizing and addressing micro aggressions, overcoming unconscious bias and psychological safety at work.
Occidental’s senior management, together with the support of Occidental’s DIB Advisory Board and the DIB Ambassador Committee, works to leverage employees’ varied backgrounds, unique experiences and points of view to spark innovation, empower growth, outperform expectations and maximize results. In October 2021, Occidental’s DIB team hosted its inaugural company-wide DIB live event.
COVID-19 RESPONSE
Occidental and the communities in which we operate continue to be impacted by the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and emergence and spread of new variants of the virus. Throughout the pandemic, Occidental has remained committed to ensuring the safety of our employees and communities while continuing to operate critical national infrastructure and supply essential products.
Senior management and the Human Resources department have been actively monitoring federal, state and local guidance and public health data. In March 2020, Occidental announced a work-from-home (WFH) program for certain domestic office-based employees. On November 2, 2021, employees returned to in-office work on a regular basis with COVID-19 safety measures in place, including a mandatory face covering requirement in common areas and enhanced office cleanings. However, given the surge in COVID-19 cases with the Omicron variant, Occidental announced the re-implementation of a WFH schedule for certain domestic office-based employees effective December 21, 2021, through March 1, 2022.
Understanding the impact of COVID-19 illnesses on our employees and their families, Occidental also instituted “pandemic pay” benefits, which provide employees with up to 14 days of paid leave if unable to work due to COVID-19 related issues.
TALENT ATTRACTION AND RETENTION
Occidental is dedicated to attracting and retaining top talent. In 2021, Occidental expanded source channels for employee candidates to include three historically black colleges and universities.
During COVID-19 outbreaks in our local communities, Occidental also efficiently conducted interviews, job fairs and campus recruiting virtually. Similarly, all college interns participated in virtual internships for health and safety reasons during 2020 and 2021. For 2022, our university relations team will work with universities and their staff to ensure that any in-person interviews and events are conducted safely. In addition, all college internships are currently set to be in-person later this year though we will continue to monitor federal, state and local guidance and public health data.
Despite the challenges introduced by COVID-19 to interact in-person with others, management continues to encourage employee engagement and feedback. For example, in late 2020, senior management began hosting Quarterly Executive Virtual Conversations, which provide employees the opportunity to hear directly from leadership regarding financial and operational updates and submit questions for management to answer.
In response to employee feedback received by the Human Resources department, Occidental implemented the Balanced Workplace Program under which eligible office-based employees may opt to work three days in the office and two days at home each week. The program affords employees more flexibility and promotes increased work/life balance.
In 2021, Occidental implemented its global Strategic Technical Excellence Program (STEP) to recruit, develop and retain highly skilled and valued geoscientists, engineers, scientists and other petrotechnical professionals who will collectively drive innovation, advance performance and inspire the future of energy. STEP drives a competitive advantage and increased profitability for Occidental through the optimum application of technology; STEP is a highly valued program for technical contributors to focus and advance on a technical, non-managerial career path. The Chief Petrotechnical Officer leads all aspects of STEP and reports directly to Occidental’s President and CEO.
Occidental also offers employees development opportunities, competitive compensation and attractive benefits, as discussed further below.

DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING
Occidental employees have access to extensive development and training opportunities and programs to expand their personal and professional skills and knowledge. Occidental’s approach to education includes:
■Leadership/management training to develop leadership skills at all levels;
■Self-directed learning and development, including web-based and instructor-led training;
■An employee development library;
■Mentoring programs;
■Employee resource groups; and
■Educational assistance to support employees’ continuing education.
EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
In addition to prioritizing employee engagement and development, Occidental’s compensation and benefits program is designed to attract and retain the talent necessary to achieve our business strategy. Our program recognizes and rewards strong company and individual performance with competitive base salaries, short-term performance incentives consisting of an annual bonus program and recognition awards, long-term performance incentives and advancement opportunities. Our compensation and benefits program is routinely reviewed and benchmarked to ensure competitiveness and to provide the benefits that matter most to current and future employees.
Occidental strives to give employees the tools and resources they need to succeed both professionally and personally and foster a safe and collaborative work environment. To that end, Occidental offers, and regularly evaluates, its comprehensive health, welfare and retirement and savings benefits plans, professional memberships, work/life balance benefits and provides programs to enhance and support employees’ overall well-being, including their physical, mental, social and financial health.
In 2021, Occidental launched a global Commit to You program to educate employees and leaders about how our benefits can support them under the four pillars of well-being: mental, physical, social and financial. Occidental also joined One Mind at Work, an employer coalition dedicated to implementing a gold standard for workplace mental health by combating stigma, improving access to treatment and prevention services and fostering a psychologically safe culture. In 2022, Occidental will focus on mental health and continue focusing programs and education to train leaders and support employees around the area of mental health and well-being. In January 2022, Occidental introduced a new benefit service provider that provides a health care concierge service to help families manage and navigate medical, in-home care, housing, and social/emotional support, for their own or their families’ complex care needs.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
The health and safety of our workforce and communities is a top priority of Occidental. Under our LiveSAFE culture, Occidental endeavors to continuously improve our workplace and contractor safety, prevent and mitigate incidents, and safeguard people and the environment in the communities where we operate. Employees and contractors are empowered and expected to uphold the LiveSAFE commitments, including to stop any job or activity if they observe conditions that may give rise to a safety or environmental incident, and they are often recognized for doing so.

| OIL AND GAS OPERATIONS |
GENERAL
Occidental’s oil and gas assets are characterized by an advantaged mix of short-cycle and long-cycle high-return development opportunities. Occidental primarily conducts its ongoing exploration and production activities in the United States, the Middle East and North Africa. Within the United States, Occidental has operations in Texas, New Mexico and Colorado, as well as offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. Internationally, Occidental primarily conducts operations in Oman, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Algeria. Refer to the Oil and Gas Acreage section in Supplemental Oil and Gas Information under Item 8 of this Form 10-K for further disclosure of Occidental’s holdings of developed and undeveloped oil and gas acreage.
COMPETITION
As a producer of oil, NGL and natural gas, Occidental competes with numerous other domestic and international public, private and government producers. Oil, NGL and natural gas are sensitive to prevailing global and local market conditions, as well as anticipated market conditions. Occidental’s competitive strategy relies on maintaining production in a capital efficient manner through developing conventional and unconventional fields, and utilizing primary and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques in areas where Occidental has a competitive advantage as a result of its successful operations or investments in shared infrastructure. Occidental also competes to develop and produce its worldwide oil and gas reserves safely, sustainably and cost-effectively, maintain a skilled workforce and obtain quality services. We believe that Occidental’s core competencies in CO2 separation, transportation, use, recycling and storage in EOR provide a competitive advantage over our peers as the world transitions to a lower carbon intensive economy and seeks to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.
PROVED RESERVES AND SALES VOLUMES
The table below shows Occidental’s year-end oil, NGL and natural gas proved reserves. See the information under Oil and Gas Segment in the Management's Discussion and Analysis section under Part II, Item 7, of this report for details regarding Occidental’s proved reserves, the reserves estimation process, sales and production volumes, production costs and other reserves-related data.
