Chevron leaders told Hess employees to stay focused on safe operations and that they will hear next week if they will continue to have jobs following the oil producer's acquisition, according to two Hess employees who spoke with Reuters.

"Chevron cuts jobs following completion of Hess acquisition" was originally created and published by Offshore Technology, a GlobalData owned brand.

Chevron completed its $53 billion acquisition of Hess after all legal hurdles were cleared, including the company's vast oil fields off the coast of Guyana.
