As the US-Israel war with Iran enters its fifth week, American defence contractors and oil companies are reaping substantial profits whilst consumers face surging petrol prices approaching $4 per gallon. Defence stocks have surged, with Lockheed Martin jumping 25% this year after winning a contract to triple missile seeker production. Oil companies including ExxonMobil, Shell and Chevron have seen share prices rise over 20% as US crude nearly doubled from $65 to over $110 per barrel following Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. US oil producers could gain an additional $63 billion in profit, according to Rystad Energy. The situation mirrors 2022's Russia-Ukraine crisis, when global oil companies made $916 billion whilst American consumers faced record $5 per gallon petrol prices and 9% inflation.
Chevron's Wheatstone LNG facility in Western Australia remains offline for multiple weeks following damage from Cyclone Narelle, tightening global LNG supply at a time of existing market constraints. The extended outage introduces uncertainty around near-term earnings, delivery commitments and customer relationships. Trading at $206.90, Chevron shares sit roughly 3.4% above the analyst price target of $200.04, though approximately 44.6% below estimated fair value according to Simply Wall St. Recent momentum shows a 30-day return of about 10.8%. Investors are monitoring repair timelines, insured losses and how the disruption affects capital allocation across Chevron's LNG portfolio. The outage adds to existing concerns including a 3.44% dividend not fully covered by earnings and recent insider selling.
Microsoft and Chevron have signed an exclusivity agreement for a natural gas power plant in West Texas that would supply electricity to a data centre hub, though no final commercial terms have been agreed. The facility would initially generate 2,500 megawatts, potentially expanding to 5,000 megawatts, and could be operational by 2027. The plant would operate outside the public power grid as part of a broader "shadow grid" strategy, allowing developers to bypass lengthy grid connection processes. At least 47 similar data centre projects are under way nationwide, according to a Washington Post report. The development highlights tensions between AI expansion and climate commitments. Microsoft's emissions have risen over 23 percent since it announced climate goals, whilst new gas plants risk locking in fossil fuel use for decades.

ExxonMobil, Chevron and ConocoPhillips are positioned to benefit as oil prices approach $100 per barrel, following a challenging 2025 when earnings declined across all three companies due to lower crude prices. ExxonMobil's full-year net income fell 14% to $28.84 billion, whilst Chevron's dropped 30% to $12.30 billion and ConocoPhillips saw a 13.34% decline to $7.99 billion. However, all three achieved record production levels despite the earnings pressure. At current oil prices, ExxonMobil offers the strongest combination of dividend stability with 43 consecutive years of growth and a 2.64% yield. ConocoPhillips demonstrates greater earnings sensitivity to rising oil prices, whilst Chevron's recent Hess acquisition pushed production to record levels. The companies remain vulnerable to oil retreating to the low $60s range.
