# Occidental Petroleum: Competitors & Industry Structure

## Direct Answer

SEC EDGAR classifies Occidental Petroleum under SIC code 1311 (Crude Petroleum & Natural Gas). Among Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight companies, 43 others share that classification; by latest reported revenue, Occidental Petroleum ranks 2 of 44. A filing classification is a starting point: a company's real competitors depend on its segments, which its 10-K describes.

Revenue growth compares each company's latest fiscal year with the one before. Fiscal years do not always end on the same date, so treat close comparisons with care.

## How Does Occidental Petroleum Rank Among All SEC Filers in Its Industry Code?

43 companies with annual reports in Swoopr's SEC dataset share SIC code 1311 (Crude Petroleum & Natural Gas), a wider group than the S&P 500 Equal Weight companies above. Ranks run from 1 (highest) and use each company's latest fiscal year, in U.S. dollars.

| Measure | Occidental Petroleum | Median of filers | Rank |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Revenue | $21.6 billion | $359 million | 2 of 43 |
| Revenue growth | -1.9% | 5.3% | 25 of 43 |
| Net margin | 11.0% | 9.2% | 20 of 43 |

A SIC code reflects the filer's main business as the SEC records it, so the group mixes companies of very different size; the median is a better guide than the average, and a rank near the top by revenue says nothing about quality.

## Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page is a value Occidental Petroleum reported in its own SEC filings, read from the SEC's XBRL data (accession 0001628280-26-009059 for fiscal year 2025). Ratios are computed from those reported values. Figures were retrieved on October 7, 2026; a later amendment or a new annual report can change them, and the filing itself always takes precedence over this summary.

Each fiscal year is labeled by the calendar year in which it ended, so a company that names the same period differently in its own filings (many retailers whose year ends in January) may use another label. A year is left out of the table when the SEC data set holds no value for it. A figure shown as "Not reported" means the company did not file a value under the standard tag Swoopr reads, not that the amount was zero. This page is educational and describes reported history only; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.

## Frequently Asked Questions

Companies sharing Occidental Petroleum's SEC classification (SIC code 1311 (Crude Petroleum & Natural Gas)) include EOG Resources (EOG), Devon Energy (DVN), Diamondback Energy (FANG), Expand Energy (EXE), APA Corporation (APA). Its 10-K names the competitors it considers most relevant.

### How does Occidental Petroleum compare with its peers on margins?

A margin comparison needs reported operating income for Occidental Petroleum and its peers; where either is missing, Swoopr leaves the comparison out.

### How are these peers chosen?

By the SEC Standard Industrial Classification code each company files under, within Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight company set, falling back to the two-digit major group when fewer than two companies share the exact code. Classification codes are broad, so read the peer list as a screen, not a verdict.
