What You’ll Actually Do
For the 2026-2027 season, Chevron is accepting online applications for Petroleum Engineer Interns in the following potential locations:
Houston, Texas
Midland, Texas
Covington, Louisiana
Bakersfield, California
Petroleum Engineers within Chevron are part of multi-disciplinary teams which vary in make-up but can include petroleum engineers, geologists, geophysicists, facility engineers, drilling and completion engineers, data scientists, and/or software developers. Petroleum engineers develop technical skills in production and reservoir engineering assignments focused on asset development planning, production operations, reserves, uncertainty and risk management, and capital project development.
Petroleum engineering interns are assigned to production and reservoir engineering positions and projects that contribute value to Chevron. Projects are matched with interns based on degree pursued and previous internship experience. Interns will be provided with a mentor to provide guidance on their projects. Positions can be either field or office based.
What’s Next After the Internship
Top performing interns may be invited back—or offered a fulltime role after graduation.
New grads who join Chevron fulltime enter the Horizons Program, a structured earlycareer experience that includes:
You can build a career as a technical expert, people leader, or both.
