Fair Value Measurements
Marketable Securities The company calculates fair value for its marketable securities based on quoted market prices for identical assets. The fair values reflect the cash that would have been received if the instruments were sold at December 31, 2025.
Derivatives The company records most of its derivative instruments – other than any commodity derivative contracts that are accounted for as normal purchase and normal sale – on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value, with the offsetting amount to the Consolidated Statement of Income. The company designates certain derivative instruments as cash flow hedges, if applicable. Derivatives classified as Level 1 include futures, swaps and options contracts valued using quoted prices from active markets such as the New York Mercantile Exchange. Derivatives classified as Level 2 include swaps, options and forward contracts, the fair values of which are obtained from third-party broker quotes, industry pricing services and exchanges. The company obtains multiple sources of pricing information for the Level 2 instruments. Since this pricing information is generated from observable market data, it has historically been very consistent. The company does not materially adjust this information.
Properties, Plant and Equipment The company did not have any individually material impairments of long lived assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in 2025 or 2024.
Investments and Advances The company did not have any material impairments of investments and advances measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis to report in 2025 or 2024.
The tables below show the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

At year-end 2025, the company had assets measured at fair value Level 3 using unobservable inputs of $9. The carrying value of these assets were written down to fair value primarily based on estimates derived from discounted cash flow models. Cash flows were determined using estimates of future production, an outlook of future price based on published prices and a discount rate believed to be consistent with those used by principal market participants.
Fair value measurements related to assets and liabilities acquired in the Hess Corporation (Hess) acquisition are disclosed in Note 29 - Acquisition of Hess Corporation.
Assets and Liabilities Not Required to Be Measured at Fair Value The company holds cash equivalents in U.S. and non-U.S. portfolios. The instruments classified as cash equivalents are primarily bank time deposits with maturities of 90 days or less and money market funds. “Cash and cash equivalents” had carrying/fair values of $6,293 and $6,781 at
December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents are classified as Level 1 and reflect the cash that would have been received if the instruments were settled at December 31, 2025.
“Cash and cash equivalents” do not include investments with a carrying/fair value of $992 and $1,481 at December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively. At December 31, 2025, these investments are classified as Level 1 and include restricted funds mainly related to certain upstream decommissioning activities.
Long-term debt, excluding finance lease liabilities, of $28,532 and $10,810 at December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively, had estimated fair values of $28,610 and $9,791, respectively. Long-term debt primarily includes corporate issued bonds. At December 31, 2025, the fair value of corporate bonds is $24,300 and classified as Level 1 and the fair value of other long-term debt classified as Level 2 is $4,310.
The carrying values of other short-term financial assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet approximate their fair values. Fair value remeasurements of other financial instruments at December 31, 2025 and 2024, were not material.
