Story details
Vicki Hollub, Occidental Petroleum President and Chief Executive Officer, appears in the live television interview published by CNBC (Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting; transcript copy) on 2026-05-02. The source gives the interview date as 2026-05-02; this is kept separate from the publication date.
A transcript copy identifies a May 2 live interview with CNBC anchor Becky Quick. Hollub discussed Occidental’s OxyChem transaction and debt reduction, and said she would step down the following month after ten years as CEO. The official May 1 succession notice makes Jackson CEO effective June 1. No original CNBC segment URL was found, so this is explicitly based on secondary transcript text.
The accessible evidence is a syndication, republication or secondary report; the original interview page or a full original transcript could not be independently confirmed. Confidence is therefore medium.
