The National Petroleum Energy Credit Association was founded in 1935 by a distinguished group of Petroleum Industry Credit Executives at the Blackstone Hotel in Fort Worth, Texas. These men left behind the legacy of a loose fellowship that grew into the present active National Petroleum Energy Credit Association (NPECA) representing approximately 300 regular members and approximately 100 companies in the Petroleum Energy Industry throughout the United States. |
