Chevron profits slip with oil price dip


    (Reuters) - Chevron Corp , the second-largest U.S. oil company, reported a lower quarterly profit on Friday as oil prices weakened from the year before, though fatter refining margins cushioned the blow.

    Second-quarter net income fell to $7.2 billion, or $3.66 per share, from $7.7 billion, or $3.85 per share, a year before.
