We recently celebrated our 30th year in the industrial fuels marketing and transportation business. The company was founded in 1976 by William L. Warner, and was formed as a sales vehicle to the markets and for the products Mr. Warner had gained vast knowledge of over his prior 25 years in the petroleum refining and marketing business. Company sales in the early years were predominately heavy fuels ( residual fuels ) and distillates to industrial and utility accounts. Through the years, Warner has sharpened its expertise in those fuels and now has become a leader in a large regional market, and offering the full range of refined fuel products. Today, Warner Petroleum Corporation is headed by 2nd generation owner Harry C. Warner, and a veteran marketing and management team exceeding 100 years of combined petroleum industry experience. Warner's market offerings include the entire crude based refined fuels spectrum ; from propane, gasoline, and diesel at the top end ; to residual fuels and asphalt at the bottom end, and everything in between. Most recent growth has come by way of large volume Natural Gas supply to metropolitan and utility accounts. Warner is actively developing opportunities in the emerging wholesale electricity, and bio-fuels markets. As part of its customer service commitment Warner also provides downstream distribution services, transportation solutions, consultation, design, equipment and financing solutions for customer applications. Company customers include electrical utilities, steel producers, road builders, vessels on the Great Lakes, as well as U.S. Governmental, Department of Defense, and municipal accounts.
