The logo used in the United States is the same as that used elsewhere since June 1, 1998. In the 1980s Shell Oil's independence began to gradually erode as the "parent company" took a more hands-on approach in running the business. was slightly different from that used in the rest of the world. One consequence of this independence was that the Shell logo used in the U.S. This was due in part to complex legal reasons as Royal Dutch Shell feared that there could be onerous liability problems if a closer control of Shell Oil's affairs was exercised by the "parent company". ĭespite the acquisition, however, Shell Oil remained a fairly independent business. However, in 1984, Royal Dutch Shell made a bid to purchase those shares of Shell Oil Company it did not own (around 30%) and despite some opposition from some minority shareholders which led to a court case, Shell completed the buyout for a sum of $5.7 billion. Limited direct involvement from the main office in The Hague, Netherlands, and having its stock "Shell Oil" traded on the New York Stock Exchange were factors. Until the mid-1980s Shell's business in the United States was substantially independent. It is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. ![]() The Shell Oil Company Warehouse, built in 1925 and located at 425 S.

The Shell Martinez Refinery in Martinez, California, the first Shell refinery in the United States, supplied Shell and Texaco stations in the West and Midwest until its sale to PBF Energy in 2020. Shell products include oils, fuels, and car services as well as exploration, production, and refining of petroleum products. However, Shell is currently divesting its interest in Motiva. Shell Oil Company was a 50/50 partner with the Saudi Arabian government-owned oil company Saudi Aramco in Motiva Enterprises, a refining and marketing joint venture which owns and operates three oil refineries on the Gulf Coast of the United States. At its gas stations Shell provides diesel fuel, gasoline and LPG. which also serve as Shell's most visible public presence, and comes closest to serving all 50 states, lacking a presence only in Montana. Shell is the market leader through approximately 14,000 Shell-branded gas stations in the U.S. The Shell Oil Company's former Natural Gas, and energy divisions are now Shell Energy North America, a closely integrated, but a distinctive entity that runs across North America and is headquartered out of Houston. This has come as a result of Royal Dutch Shell breaking off its Natural Gas and power businesses into a new segment named Integrated Gas. In recent years The Shell Oil Company's Midstream, and Downstream, in particular, have become limited to petroleum, and chemical products. In the year 2016, Shell Nederland Raffinaderij BV (Shell Pernis) said that it has started a new aromatics unit at the large Pernis refinery in Rotterdam, Netherlands. In 2002, Shell began converting these Texaco stations to the Shell brand, a process that was to be completed by June 2004 and was called "the largest retail re-branding initiative in American business history". Īfter Texaco merged with Chevron in 2001, Shell purchased Texaco's shares in the joint ventures. The other, known as Motiva Enterprises, combined the Eastern and Gulf Coast operations of Shell Oil and Star Enterprise, itself a joint venture between Saudi Aramco and Texaco. One combined their Midwestern and Western operations and was known as Equilon. In 1997, Shell and Texaco entered into two refining/marketing joint ventures.

Toastmaster was a brand name of the McGraw Electric company, a Sunbeam competitor, which introduced the first automatic pop-up toaster in 1926. Ironically, and erroneously, in that obituary, Koci’s daughter refered to his invention as the “Sunbeam Toastmaster”. His son, Ludvik Frank Koci, had a long career as an engineer and executive at General Motors, eventually running its Detroit Diesel subsidiary. He also experimented with electric cars in his 60s. According to his obituary, he also invented and held patents on an early electric iron, Sunbeam’s first electric coffee percolator, and the first electric frying pan, along with electric shavers and electric blankets. Koci, who worked for Sunbeam and its antecedant company for 37 years. The Radiant Control toaster was the creation of a prolific inventor named Ludvik J. Impressively, the technology was developed back in the 1930s and 1940s and even more impressively, it uses no motors or solenoids. Isn’t that cool? When you’re half awake and waiting for your coffee to brew would you rather be startled by the jarring, spring loaded action of a pop-up toaster, or be gently alerted by a quiet click, followed by your toast being elevated, as gentle as sunrise? After the bread is lowered, you can skip to about 40 seconds in to watch the magic happen as it shuts off and raises the toast. Here’s a short video of the Radiant Control toaster in action. The bread goes down automatically, the heating elements turn on and toast your bread, which then rises, quietly and gently, when done. You see, with the Sunbeam Radiant Control toaster, you just set your slice of bread (or bagel, this old school toaster has slots that can accommodate fairly thick slices) in the slot, adjust the doneness setting, and the toaster does the rest. You provide all the force needed, and you turn on the toaster.Ī cool piece of kit, no doubt, but compared to a Sunbeam Radiant Control toaster even the most modern, digitally controlled pop-up toaster is Model T primative when put up against the the SRC’s mechanical elegance. ![]() ![]() An electromagnetic latch releases when a mechanical timer, bimetal thermostat, or logic circuit decides that the toast is done to your setting. Isn’t every pop-up toaster you can buy at Target’s housewares section automatic? Don’t they pop up your toast automatically when it is done? Well, yes, they do, rather suddenly and violently compared to the T-35’s genteel action, but you first have to put the bread in and depress the plunger to lower the bread into the toaster, which puts tension on the lifting springs, and energizes the heating elements. While America was busy making rockets and inventing solid state integrated circuits to put men on the moon, an appliance company was using basic physics and mechanics to make an automatic toaster the likes of which has never been improved upon. While both of those will char bread quite adequately, I prefer to use the best bread toaster ever made, a Sunbeam Radiant Control toaster, in my case a model T-35, made sometime between 19, close to my own vintage. To make toast these days, most folks either use a toaster oven, which to me seems like overkill for just a couple of slices, or a pop-up electric toaster. I also love me some toasted bread, though I actually prefer egg challah with sweet butter and strawberry preserves, to dry, white toast.
