Lower trailing P/E & higher yield for COP right now. CVX might have a small edge in the moat department with their downstream stuff. IIRC, COP had higher LNG reserves last I looked and was focussing more on North America whereas CVX was more worldwide in focus.
COP is in my wife's portfolio and I hold CVX. I don't know if I could choose. Did you flip a coin? Maybe go with XOM instead and then you'd have the 'holy trinity'. Depending on the ex dates, maybe wait a month and look again?
Choices, choices.

“While the dividend itself is merely a rearrangement of equity, over time it's more like owning an apple tree. The tree grows the apples back again and again and again, and the theoretical value of the tree doesn't change just because of when the apples are about to fall.” - earthtodan
