Chevron Corporation (CVX) reported better-than-expected second-quarter 2009 earnings, driven by robust upstream volumes and improved downstream results. Earnings per share, excluding foreign-currency effects, came in at $1.10, above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.95.   On a year-over-year basis, Chevron’s adjusted earnings per share plunged 62.8%, while revenue declined 51.6% to $40.2 billion, reflecting lower prices for crude oil and natural gas.   Upstream Earnings Plummet: Increased Volumes Offset By Lower Prices   Chevron’s total production of crude oil and natural gas increased by 5.2% from the year-earlier level to 2.7 million oil-equivalent barrels per day (BOE/d), driven by new project start-ups and the impact of lower prices on production entitlements.

On Monday, July 13, both Ovonic Battery Company, Inc. and Chevron Technology Ventures LLC offloaded their equal stakes in the joint venture Cobasys L.L.C.  Ovonic is a subsidiary of Michigan-based Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. (ENER) while Chevron Technology is a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation (CVX).   Cobasys develops and manufactures energy storage systems for hybrid electric vehicles.  The stakes were bought by South Korea-based SB LiMotive Company Ltd.
