In 1938, Texaco introduced Sky Chief gasoline, a premium fuel developed from the ground up as a high-octane gasoline rather than just an ethylized regular product. In 1939, Texaco became one of the first oil companies to introduce a "Registered Rest Room" program to ensure that restroom facilities at all Texaco stations nationwide maintained a standard level of cleanliness to the motoring public. The Shell Oil Company and Texaco Inc. announced yesterday that they had agreed to merge their refining and marketing operations in the Midwest and the West, forming a new company that would control nearly 15 percent of the nation’s gasoline sales. Is Shell the same as Texaco?

In 1931, Texaco bought the Indian Oil Company. The Indian Oil Company was in Illinois. This expanded the company's refining and marketing base across the midwestern United States. It also gave Texaco rights to Indian's Havoline motor oil (which became a Texaco product). The next year, Texaco became the sole sponsor of The Huntley-Brinkley Report on NBC-TV. In 1959, the Texas Company changed its corporate name to Texaco, Inc. to better reflect the value of the Texaco brand name, which represented the biggest selling gasoline brand in the U.S. and only marketer selling gasoline under one brand name in all (by then) 50 states. It also acquired McColl-Frontenac Oil Company Ltd. of Canada and changes its name to Texaco Canada Limited.

During this year, the Spindletop wells produced a staggering 17,500,000 barrels of oil. Steve is an avid collector of all types of gas memorabilia so when I mentioned that I was researching Power Chief, it didn’t surprise me when he quietly placed a booklet on my desk. The 1935 Diamond T had a tandem axle tanker with eye-catching double fender skirts / spats. The Power Chief and Texaco lettering, as well as the Texas Co door signs and Texaco Star logos, were all hand painted across the tanker.

In 1932, Texaco launched a new ‘super-octane’ gasoline brand in the United States called Fire-Chief. It was promoted as being “the same type of gasoline which the U.S. Government uses in its own emergency vehicles!” The promotional artwork, as the brand name suggested, was a fireman’s helmet.

UEEHA0009 - Develop and manage periodic electrical inspection and maintenance programs for hazardous areas After searching through the Papers Past division of the National Library of New Zealand, I came across an advertisement that answered the question. Bob kindly gave me over 20 issues of the Texaco Times magazine dating between 1934 and 1936. The covers were all exactly the same with the exception that the publishers began printing the date on the front covers from January 1935.Texeco is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO No. 52944), providing nationally recognised Training for UEE42620 – Certificate IV in Hazardous Areas – Electrical in Western Australia, Victoria and internationally. We provide learners with a quality training experience that allows them to develop the technical knowledge and skills to advance in the specialised field of electrical equipment in hazardous areas. I have really enjoyed learning about Texaco’s early history and comparing the brands and publications between the two countries. I must say that the 1930s has become my favourite ‘Texaco decade’, not only for the stunning streamlined tankers but also the style, design, creativity and grit shown by Texaco despite the challenging decade that it was. I now have a new appreciation of the enormous impact and contribution that Texaco and the other oil companies made towards motoring in the early 20th century.
