Chevron opened the curtain on the latest round of mega profits from oil and gas traders last week - posting a record £29.5bn ($36.5bn) earnings over its full year. However, the firm's results still fell short of analyst forecasts with oil and gas prices sliding over the autumn trading window. It is highly likely Chevron's numbers will kick off a nosebleed in earnings for global energy suppliers, with rivals Shell, Aramco, BP, Equinor, Exxonmobil and Total set to announce their full-year results in the coming weeks.
