Overriding Goal is to Maximize Total Shareholder Return
 We believe this can be achieved through a combination of:
 Growing our oil and gas production by 5 to 8% per year on
 average over the long term;
 Allocating and deploying capital with a focus on achieving
 well above cost-of-capital returns (ROE and ROCE);
  Return Targets*
  Domestic - 15+%
  International - 20+%
 Consistent dividend growth, that is superior to that of our
 peers.
*Assumes Moderate Product Prices

 Our ability to pay dividends is indicated by our free cash
 flow generation.
 Free cash flow after interest, taxes and capital spending,
 but before dividends, acquisitions and debt activity for
 the first nine months of 2011 was $3.7 billion.
 Oxy’s annual dividend rate is currently $1.84 per share or
 about $1.1 billion for the nine months of 2011.
 Oxy has increased its dividends 10 times over the last
 9 years, resulting in a compound annual dividend growth
 rate of 15.6%.
 In keeping with our philosophy to raise the dividend on a
 consistent basis, the Board of Directors is expected to
 consider a dividend increase at the February meeting.

 About 60% of Oxy’s oil production tracks world oil prices
 and 40% is indexed to WTI.
 For example:
  In California our realized price was 114% of WTI and 91% of Brent
 in 3Q11.
  In Oman our average price was 117% of WTI and 93% of Brent.
 Differentials improved in 3Q11, resulting in realized oil
 prices representing 108% of the average WTI and 87% of
 the average Brent price.

 We expect capital spending for the total year 2011 to be
 about $7.0 billion, compared to the total 2010 capital of
 $3.9 billion.
 Year to-date capital expenditures by segment were 83%
 in Oil and Gas, 14% in Midstream and the remainder in
 Chemicals.
 Oxy's share of the Shah Field development capital will be
 about $3 billion from 2012 through 2014, in addition to
 spending of approximately $1 billion during 2011.

Capital Spending - 2011E vs. 2010 Actual
 Last year we provided a 2010 - 14 capital budget of $27.5 billion,
 with average spending of $5.5 billion per year
 Excluding capital for Shah project, estimated capital for 2010 - 11 of
 $10.4 billion is in the range of that guidance

 The impact of our capital program and increase in drilling
 activity has started to have a visible impact on our domestic oil
 and gas production volumes.
 Compared to 2Q11, our domestic production increased by
 about 6 mboe/d per month, compared to our guidance of
 3 to 4 mboe/d.
  This increase resulted in domestic production of 436 mboe/d for 3Q11,
 representing ~3% sequential quarterly growth.
  3Q11 domestic production is the highest US total production volume in
 Oxy’s history, reflecting the highest ever volumes for liquids.
 On a year-over-year basis, our domestic production volumes
 have increased by 15%.
 We believe our capital program will yield higher production
 growth and reliability over time.

 We expect 4Q11 oil and gas production to be as follows:
  Domestic volumes are expected to increase by about 3 to 4 mboe/d
 per month from the 3Q11 average level of 436 mboe/d.
  This should result in average 4Q11 production of about
 442 to 444 mboe/d.
  This would constitute a year-over-year domestic production
 growth rate exceeding 10% and about a 6% per year production
 growth rate going forward.
  We expect our 4Q11 international production to be about the same
 as 3Q11 production, 4% higher than 2Q11, which was the low point
 of volumes during the year following the situation in Libya.
  At 3Q11-end prices, we expect total production to increase to
 around 745 mboe/d as a result of the 3 to 4 mboe/d per month
 coming from domestic production.
  We expect sales volumes to be around 740 mboe/d due to the
 timing of liftings.

 Shifted our drilling to oil wells
 which we expect to result in
 higher oil production in 2011.
 Drill ~20 exploration wells in
 2011, several of which will be
 for conventional opportunities.
 We expect that the exploration
 activity will, at a minimum,
 create more unconventional
 drilling locations.

 Multi-year inventory of drill sites in
 CA, many of which are both outside
 of Elk Hills proper & the Kern County
 Discovery Area
 Expect to drill 154 shale wells outside
 Elk Hills proper, and 195 total shale
 wells including Elk Hills in 2011
 30-day initial production rate for
 these wells is between 300 and 400
 BOE per day
 For the shale wells outside Elk Hills,
 ~80% of the BOE production is a
 combination of black oil and high-
 value condensate
 Cost of drilling and completing the
 wells has run ~$3.5 million per well,
 which we expect to decline over time

California “Shale” Summary and Play
Comparison
 ~870,000 acres are within most prospective “shale” plays;
 We have “de-risked” approx. 200,000 acres as viable for “shale”;
 Oxy’s average NRI ~95%;
 Identified 15 areas to appraise (5 - 10% of total acreage);
  Average IP ~ 300 - 400 boepd;
  10-acre spacing
 In 10 years CA “shale” could become Oxy’s largest business unit.
 
 
 
23
 
 
 
 
24
 We expect to drill and complete a total of 42 shale wells during
 4Q11.
 We expect to run a 30 rig program in the state during 4Q11.
 Our conventional drilling program is progressing somewhat better
 than planned.
 With respect to the recent personnel turnover at the DOGGR, our
 hope is that the permitting process becomes more transparent,
 which would make planning our activity levels more predictable.
 Improved transparency and a clearing of the substantial backlog of
 permits should allow for a gradual increase in our activity levels and
 employment in the state.

 In the Permian operations:
  Our CO2 flood production is progressing according to plan.
  We expect our rig count to be about 24 in 4Q11.
  Our non-CO2 operations have stepped up their development
 program but will not show significant production growth until
 next year.
 In Williston:
  We are pursuing a development program with about 13 rigs
 expected to be running in 4Q11.
  Our production is growing as a result of the development
 program and we expect the growth to continue.
 Natural gas prices in the US continue to be weak. As a result,
 we are considering cutting back our pure gas drilling in the
 Midcontinent and possibly elsewhere.

40
 Company’s core business is acquiring assets that can
 provide future growth through improved recovery.
  Foreign contracts
  Domestic add-ons
  Small incremental additions to production in short term
 Generate returns of at least 15% in the US and 20% overseas.
 Overall average finding & development costs of less than
 25% of selling price.
 Even with the additional capital shown, program will
 generate a significant amount of free cash flow.
 Acquisitions are measured against reinvesting in the existing
 business with the goal of enhancing company value.
 Large number of opportunities over 5-year period.
Acquisition Strategy
 
 
 
40
 
 
 
 
41
 5 - 8% base annual production growth
 Opportunity for additional volume growth
 Returns on invested capital significantly in excess of
 Company’s cost of capital
 Annual increases in dividends
 Significant financial flexibility for opportunities in distressed
 periods
 Conservative financial statements
 Committed to generating stock market value which is greater
 than earnings retained
 We believe this will generate top quartile returns for our
 shareholders

Portions of this presentation contain forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties that could materially affect
expected results of operations, liquidity, cash flows and business prospects. Factors that could cause results to differ
materially include, but are not limited to: global commodity pricing fluctuations; supply and demand considerations for
Occidental’s products; general domestic political and regulatory approval conditions; political events; not successfully
completing, or any material delay of, any development of new fields, expansion projects, capital expenditures, efficiency-
improvement projects, acquisitions or dispositions; potential failure to achieve expected production from existing and future oil
and gas development projects; exploration risks such as drilling unsuccessful wells; any general economic recession or
slowdown domestically or internationally; higher-than-expected costs; potential liability for remedial actions under existing or
future environmental regulations and litigation; potential liability resulting from pending or future litigation; general domestic and
international political conditions; potential disruption or interruption of Occidental’s production or manufacturing or damage to
facilities due to accidents, chemical releases, labor unrest, weather, natural disasters or insurgent activity; failure of risk
management; changes in law or regulations; or changes in tax rates. Finding and Development costs calculations inherently
compare costs and reserves from separate periods. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits
oil and natural gas companies, in their SEC filings, to disclose only reserves anticipated to be economically producible, as of a
given date, by application of development projects to known accumulations. We use certain terms in this presentation, such as
resource potential, net risked reserves, de-risked, geologically viable, EUR (expected ultimate recovery), discovery volumes,
likely recoverable resources and oil in place, that the SEC’s guidelines strictly prohibit us from using in our SEC filings. These
terms represent our internal estimates of volumes of oil and gas that are not proved reserves but are potentially recoverable
through exploratory drilling or additional drilling or recovery techniques and are not intended to correspond to probable or
possible reserves as defined by SEC regulations. By their nature these estimates are more speculative than proved, probable
or possible reserves and subject to greater risk they will not be realized. You should not place undue reliance on these forward
-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation. Unless legally required, Occidental does not
undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
U.S. investors are urged to consider carefully the disclosures in our 2010 Form 10-K, available through the following toll-free
number 1-888-OXYPETE (1-888-699-7383) or on the internet at http://www.oxy.com. You also can obtain a copy form the
SEC by calling 1-800-SEC-0330. We post or provide links to important information on our website including investor and
analyst presentations, certain board committee charters and information that SEC requires companies and certain of its officers
and directors to file or furnish. Such information may be found in the “Investor Relations” and “Social Responsibility” portions of
the website.
