3.3 – 43 reviews • Oil refinery
Social Profile : 
From gasoline, to jet and diesel fuel, and lubricating base oils, the Richmond Refinery produces the products we use on a daily basis. On a daily basis, the Richmond Refinery processes about 250,000 barrels of crude oil. Unlike other energy producers, 100% of the crude oil we process arrives at the Richmond Long Wharf by ship. The Richmond Refinery produces a special, cleaner blend of gasoline only available in California. This helps reduce pollution and protect the environment. From providing high skill jobs that pay competitive wages, to supporting local businesses and non-profit organizations, to paying taxes that fund essential public services, Chevron has been an important part of the Richmond community for more than 114 years.

I’m a combat veteran with an engineering degree, and I was turned down for a job here that perfectly fit my experience, education, and skillset. The people I spoke with for the phone interview were rude and unprofessional.

Get out of Richmond, spilling oil everywhere.

There is a contrast of reviews here. All 5 stars and all 1 stars, little to no in between. I understand some people (5 star reviewers) are happy working here and they probably pay and treat employees well. Though we need to remind ourselves this is a bad en-devour (1 star reviewers). This refinery is a major health risk to all of Richmond and surrounding areas.The residents disproportionately suffer from irregular high rates of cancer, asthma, and other pulmonary diseases. The refinery passes the limits for the EPA’s air compliance standards, releasing dangerous levels of air pollution into Richmond’s communities every day.The Richmond refinery had been in “high priority violation” of Clean Air Act compliance standards, the most severe level of violation possible from the EPA. Chevron has been assessed hundreds of thousands of dollars in penalties for multiple Clean Air Act violations with almost 100 citations in the five year period between 2007 and 2012 alone. From 2006 to 2009 the refinery failed to comply with the Clean Water Act and the National Pollutant Discharge System in every quarter but one.Richmond, California will continue to suffer from higher rates of cancer, asthma, and after health problems as long as Chevron operates in the community. Given its immense financial power there is little hope the refinery will ever completely shut down.Unfortunately things are about to get much much worse. The refinery is considering producing tar-sand which is insanely more toxic than crude oil.No job is worth sacrificing human lives. Unfortunately it is going to take a lot of citizen power to fight against this. Reading these reviews, it appears we are sadly headed in the opposite direction. The bottom-line is no refinery should be near residences if the outcome is poor health/ death. Remove the residences or remove the refinery. There is no other way.
