Chevron Pascagoula: fourth-quarter 2026 turnaround and the 2027 question
Operator-disclosed fourth-quarter 2026 work; 2027 carryover not stated.
Chevron's third-quarter 2026 outlook attributes a $400 million to $500 million after-tax fourth-quarter downstream turnaround and downtime impact primarily to planned turnaround activity at Pascagoula and Richmond. Management also said Pascagoula capacity would rise a further 7 percent over the next two turnaround cycles by 2030. No source states whether the fourth-quarter work extends into January 2027.

What Chevron has disclosed
Slide 14 of the October 30, 2026 earnings presentation names Pascagoula and Richmond for the fourth-quarter 2026 turnaround impact. On the call, management said the next two Pascagoula turnaround cycles would add another 7 percent of capacity by 2030 and that 2027 capital guidance would follow the December board meeting.
Units and dates were not disclosed.

A confirmed fourth-quarter 2026 turnaround and two more planned cycles before 2030 make Pascagoula's 2027 posture relevant to Gulf Coast suppliers, but nothing reviewed establishes a 2027 outage. If the fourth-quarter work runs into January 2027, this record will be reclassified.

Industrial Info reported a 45-day FCCU turnaround from January 9, 2022, three other units for 30 days, and a 47-day delayed coker turnaround moved up to March 2022. These show the site's recent cadence; they do not establish fourth-quarter 2026 scope.
