About UOP

UOP LLC, a Honeywell company, has been delivering cutting-edge technology to the petroleum refining, gas processing, petrochemical production and major manufacturing industries for over 90 years.

UOP was founded as the National Hydrocarbon Company in 1914 by California inventor Jesse A. Dubbs and Chicago industrialist J. Ogden Armour, with the goal of developing and licensing technology to the petroleum refining industry. In 1915 the name was changed to Universal Oil Products. Four years later, the company introduced its Dubbs thermal cracking process, a continuous process to convert crude oil into more useable products.
