National Petrochemical and Refiners Association

National Petrochemical and Refiners Association

The National Petrochemical and Refiners Association includes refiners and petrochemical producers and conducts its main meetings every year in San Antonio, Texas. These annual NPRA meetings are attended by several thousand people from all over the world.

It was founded in 1902 as the National Petroleum Association, became the National Petroleum Refiners Association in 1961, and became the National Petrochemical & Refiners Association in 1998. In early 2012, the NPRA will become American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers[1].
