CRC's 2025 Sustainability Report highlights the progress we’re making to responsibly produce the energy California needs while investing in solutions that support the state’s climate goals. (1/3)
In 2025, we reduced operational GHG emissions by 25% from our 2020 baseline, completed construction of California's first commercial CCS facility and delivered approximately 4.6 billion gallons of treated, reclaimed water to California water districts.
We also expanded MiQ “Grade A” certification across our operations and invested more than $2 million in workforce training, education, food security and local economic development across California. (2/3)
California’s crude oil market operates differently from many other energy-producing regions.
Because the state isn’t connected to major U.S. crude oil pipeline networks, more than 75% of the oil California consumes comes from outside the state.
Responsible in-state production helps keep a portion of that supply closer to where it’s consumed—while operating under California’s rigorous environmental and labor standards and supporting investment and economic activity across the state.
First CO₂ injection at Carbon TerraVault I marked a milestone: California’s first operational carbon capture and storage project.
Thank you to industry partners, policymakers and regulators who helped make it possible—and to the @RamsNFL for hosting us at SoFi Stadium.
Now Live: "The Art Of The Possible Is Phenomenal" – Francisco Leon, California Resources Corporation🎙️
We are excited to continue our California #COBT Series with a discussion featuring Francisco Leon, President and CEO of California Resources Corporation (CRC). This episode was the culmination of a full day with the CRC team studying California’s oil and gas complex firsthand. We started at the Port of Long Beach, traveled north to CRC’s Elk Hills operations near Bakersfield, and ended the day in Santa Clarita, where we sat down with Francisco to discuss what we had seen and the broader outlook for California energy.
Along the way, we visited with Dean Persinger, Vice President of the Wilmington Production Complex, at the Port of Long Beach; Gabriela Gonzales, Senior External Affairs Advisor, at Elk Hills to discuss CRC’s community engagement efforts; as well as Joe Jephson, Engineering Manager at Carbon TerraVault, and Brent Ilott, Vice President of Operations of the Elk Hills Production Complex.

This summer, 17 interns joined CRC to gain hands-on experience across key areas of our business, support real projects and see the work behind California’s energy infrastructure firsthand.
Thank you to our interns for bringing your energy, curiosity and dedication as we continue supporting the local talent pipeline.
Engineering is at the heart of reliable, responsible operations.
On Professional Engineers Day, CRC celebrates the engineers whose expertise and problem-solving help design, maintain and improve the systems our operations depend on every day.
Thank you for your dedication and commitment to continuous improvement.
California's energy system is becoming more complex.
As new power generation, energy storage projects, and large energy users come online, maintaining reliability will require more than any single technology. It depends on strong infrastructure, operational expertise and long-term planning across the energy value chain.
With decades of experience operating complex energy assets across California, CRC knows how to deliver reliable energy today while supporting the state's evolving energy future.
More opportunities for students today can help build a stronger energy workforce for tomorrow. CRC’s $75,000 contribution to @CSUBakersfield's Energy Innovation Building will support hands-on learning, research and collaboration that connect students with real-world career pathways in Kern County and across California.
