Event summary
Chevron CEO Mike Wirth discusses the ongoing dangers in the Strait of Hormuz, noting persistent attacks on vessels and Chevron's refusal to pay tolls. He emphasizes that the decision to navigate the strait rests with shipowners and their insurers, who must regain confidence for oil trade to normalize, independent of any US-Iran peace agreement. Wirth confirms Chevron has six chartered ships in the region and highlights the need for owners to be willing to redeploy vessels after past incidents.
