Trade Journals: Sources of Petroleum‐Related Information

Abstract

There is no need to elaborate on the key position that petroleum has in our lives today. Everyone who reads this article is aware that it is the most important raw material energy resource in the United States at present. It will remain important for some time to come. Most readers are also aware that petroleum is the basic starting material for many industrial chemicals; but some may need to be reminded that it is, in fact, the principal raw material from which most of the synthetic chemical products made in the United States ultimately derive.
