petroleum energy Humble supplies- if converted into heat- could melt it
at the rate of 80 tons each second! To meet the nation's growing needs
for energy, Humble has applied science to nature's resources to become
America's Leading Energy Company. Working wonders with oil through
research, Humble provides energy in many forms- to help heat our homes,
power our transportation, and to furnish industry with a great variety
