Gulf Oil Offers

Analytical Laboratory

Services To Others

In another step to support na- tional efforts for energy and en- vironmental resource conserva- tion, Gulf Oil Corporation is offering the full analytical service facilities of its multimillion dollar research laboratory in Harmar- ville, Pa., for use by Government and industry. "As far as we can determine," said R.E. Wohlgemuth, manager of industrial and commercial mar- keting, "Gulf is the first major oil company to offer its analytical laboratory services for outside use."

The Harmarville laboratory is operated by Gulf Research and

Development Company. It was established in 1935 and ranks among the nation's top ten in terms of equipment, scientific staff, and extent of analytical capabilities. The facility near

Pittsburgh contains some of the world's most sophisticated ana- lytical equipment, some of which was developed by Gulf scientists.

Mr. Wohlgemuth said the Har- marville laboratory conducts over 2,000 separate analytical tests. "They range from simple test- tube procedures to highly com- plex molecular structure determi- nations. We will even custom- design special tests to meet un- usual requirements. "The significance of this serv- ice is that it provides capabilities far beyond those normally found in most laboratories. The poten- tial applications are most exten- sive," Mr. Wohlgemuth stated.

Gulf is marketing its analytical laboratory services through the company's Industrial and Com- mercial Marketing Department,

P.O. Box 2100, Houston, Texas 77001. The new analytical serv- ices are performed by Gulf Re- search and Development Com- pany.

Analytical capabilities commer- cially available from Gulf include tests for quality control, pollu- tion control, product development, petroleum products quality, proc- ess control, trouble-shooting op- erations, and other problems in- volving organic, inorganic and physical chemistry. res all here contains the power supply, ONE COMPACT MODULAR UNIT channel monitors (13 and 16), transmitter and receiver.

THIS 55 CHANNEL DIGITALLY SYNTHESIZED ado telephone's stainless steel hardware, gold plated contacts on interchangeable cir- cuit cards, and solid state circuitry insures long term reliability in the marine environment. The 226A Radiotelephone provides simultaneous power source inputs for both 12 VDC and 115/230 VAC. This built-in safety feature permits unin- terrupted operation in case of primary power failure.

THE 226A VHF/FM RADIOTELEPHONE IS EASY

TO INSTALL and can be moved to any location on board ship without spe- cial instructions or special tools.
