Excerpt from The Petroleum Industry, Vol. 1
This book has been written with the definite purpose of helping men and women, far removed from the Oil Fields, to "see" the Petroleum Industry - as it really is.
Thousands of people who are interested either directly or indirectly in the Petroleum Industry may never actually see an oil well, or a tank farm, or a pipe line, or a refinery - but these people want to know, and should know, about Petroleum.
This marvelous thing, Petroleum, is industrially too vital to us today, and financially too close to us, for any man or woman not to know something about it.
This book tries to tell Petroleum's story - briefly, frankly, impartially and accurately.
