Occidental may face additional costs for operating and maintenance due to government actions related to Ghg and air emissions, such as higher rates charged by service providers to purchase, maintain, and maintain emission allowances, comply with new regulatory or reporting requirements, or discourage Occidental from conducting oil and gas development activities in certain areas. Additionally, government programs or legislation designed to reduce Ghg emissions could lower the value of oil Ngl and natural gas products produced by Occidental's businesses and lower the value of its reserves.
