WASHINGTON, D.C. – American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) President Chet Thompson released the following statement in response to President Obama’s State of the Union address:
AFPM asked collegiate teams to create an original video highlighting the career opportunities within the fuel refining and petrochemical manufacturers industries in addition to showing the benefits our industries provide to everyday lives.
As part of the 2016 AFPM Recruitment Challenge, collegiate teams were tasked with creating an original video that highlights the different career opportunities within the refining and petrochemical industries in addition to showing the benefits those industries provide to our everyday lives.
The U.S. refining industry is the most competitive in the world, which is a benefit to American households. Our complex facilities are uniquely suited to handle difficult-to-refine crude oil and other petroleum feedstocks that refineries elsewhere cannot process. This creates competitive advantage. At the same time, the United States is able to sell some of our higher-quality crude to countries that need it. This combination is powerful.
