Oil prices have jumped more than 70% this year and were on the rise again Monday.

Saudi Aramco said Q1 profit rose 25% as the Iran war disrupted global oil supplies and pushed up prices. The company shifted some exports away from the Strait of Hormuz via its East-West Pipeline, which is now operating at full capacity.

Chevron boasts a steady dividend supported by its strong asset base, making it a reliable stock in the volatile oil and gas industry.
