Petrolane Opens Division

Headquarters In Houston—

Friedl Named Vice President

George Friedl W.E. Durkee

Petrolane Incorporated has established an administrative headquarters in Houston,

Texas, for the Petroleum Industry Services

Division. The division's new address is 811

Dallas Street, Americana Building, Suite 1001, Houston, Texas 77002.

W.E. Durkee, division president, said the

Houston office will be the headquarters for the $41-million worldwide operations of

Petrolane's oil industry support services.

Eastman-Whipstock, a large segment of the division and a major directional drilling com- pany, has its main office in Houston. Other division segments not located in Houston are

Arthur Levy Boat Service, Inc., an interna- tional workboat operator; Fishing Tools Inc., a remedial well service firm, and Indonesia

Air Transport, an air taxi service.

At the same time, the announcement of the division headquarters was made, Petro- lane also announced the selection of a pe- troleum services vice president to assist with special projects. George Friedl, cur- rently director of Petrolane's LP-gas allo- cation program, was chosen for the executive post. Prior to joining Petrolane in 1973, Mr.

Friedl was a management consultant special- izing in market research and product plan- ning. He also gained extensive experience in maritime operations, serving as an officer in the U.S. merchant marine and sailing large passenger and cargo vessels around the world. In his new assignment, he will move to Houston to join Mr. Durkee in the overall coordination of division activities.
