Editorial Comment: Our purpose: 100 yr of striving to deliver technical editorial excellence to the HPI
One hundred years ago, a group of individuals saw a need to disseminate the latest technologies and know-how to improve refining operations, safety, management and profitability. At the time, World War 1 had ended roughly 4 yr prior, and global gasoline demand expanded immensely.
