Section 2 – Resource Extraction Issuer Disclosure

Item 2.01     Resource Extraction Issuer Disclosure and Report

(a)    Required Disclosure.

Section 13(q) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 13q-1 and Form SD promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Resource Extraction Payment Rules”) require resource extraction issuers to disclose payments made to the U.S. federal government or a foreign government for the purpose of the commercial development of oil, natural gas or minerals. In accordance with the Resource Extraction Payment Rules, this Form SD covers such payments made by Occidental Petroleum Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Occidental”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Terms and phrases used but not defined in this Form SD have the meanings provided under the Resource Extraction Payment Rules.

Disclosure of Payments by Resource Extraction Issuers.
The specified payment disclosure required by the Resource Extraction Payment Rules is included in Exhibit 99.1 to this Form SD.

Payments are reported on a cash basis in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency payments are converted using the exchange rate that existed at the time the payment was made.

Payments are grouped into projects, which Occidental has defined as the combination of the major subnational political jurisdiction (designated by ISO 3166 country codes) and the body of water for offshore operations, the resource being extracted (oil and/or natural gas), and the extraction method (all of which are “well”). Obligations levied at the entity level rather than on a particular project are disclosed as entity level payments.
