Abstract
AT the ninth annual General Meeting of the Institution of Petroleum Technologists, held on March 14, Prof. J. S. S. Brame delivered his presidential address, taking for his subject the proposals for the re-establishment of the International Petroleum Commission. International Petroleum Congresses were held in 1900, 1904, and 1908, and committees were appointed to establish methods of testing products. Little was actually achieved, and in 1909 an International Petroleum Commission of wider scope was established. The organisation of an English National Section was referred to the Institution of Petroleum Technologists by Engler and Ubbelohde, but the intended meeting of the Commission at Bucharest in 1914 was prevented by the outbreak of war.
