  A National Historic Chemical Landmark: The Sohio Acrylonitrile Process
It was a conservative move, but it encouraged Sohio to view chemicals as a commercial enterprisea venture that would lead to remarkable success.
Sohio's process economics for acrylonitrile were so positive that the decision was made to proceed with commercialization even though early market development efforts were discouraging.
Sohio's license to The People's Republic of China in 1973 was the first transaction by an American company after China opened its doors to U.S. investment.

  Van Huff v. Sohio Alaska Petroleum Co. (6/26/92), 835 P 2d 1181
Sohio argued that these opinions were admissible evidence of the state of mind of the supervisors who rated Van Huff, and were therefore admissible under Alaska Rule of Evidence 803, paragraphs (3) and (23), the "state of mind exception" and "general exception" to the hearsay rule.
Sohio argues that Van Huff's assertions are irrelevant because the third-party statements were not hearsay, since those statements were not offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted.
To the extent that the pretrial ruling implied that Sohio was required to establish a foundation for the admission of the statements under Rule 803(3), that ruling was erroneous.

 Sohio in the 1930s
Sohio is probably the only major oil company whose primary brand name was limited to a single state.
A Sohio station was the first place I ever actively solicited maps, and if a person could be a fan of a brand, I was a Sohio fan in the 1960s.
"Sohio" itself is now part of history; the brand name gave way, to the passing lament of many Ohioans and others who follow oil company happenings, to that of its acquirer, BP.

 New Century Energy - Operations Information
In 1965 POG sold the field to Sohio Petroleum, which aggressively produced the field, expanded the water flooding operations and drilled over 250 wells.
In 1975 Sohio prematurely plugged over 1/3 of the producing wells in the field primarily located in the southern down dip portion.
Other shallow reservoirs (3000' to 3700") were produced by Sohio and made and additional 25 BCF of gas and oil.

 CITIZENS TASK FORCE ON SOHIO v. BOARD OF HARBOR COMMISSIONERS
The Citizens Task Force on Sohio (Citizens) brought this action for writ of mandate in the superior court to compel the Board of Harbor Commissioners of the Port of Long Beach (Port) to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Pub.Res.Code, s 21000 et seq.).
After granting the Port's motion to join the PUC as an indispensable party (Code Civ.Proc., s 389), the court transferred the matter to this court (Code Civ.Proc., s 396) on the ground that it lacked authority to compel the PUC to comply with CEQA (Pub.Util.Code, s 1759; Pub.Res.Code, s 21168.6).
(c).) Because the Port was the first to act on the Sohio project, it became the lead agency and hence was required to defend the adequacy of the entire EIR under Public Resources Code section 21167; the PUC thereby became a "responsible" agency (Id., s 21069), whose actions are governed by section 21167.3.

 Standard Oil in 1961
Sohio thought Enco was also too close in sound and appearance to Esso, and so Jersey Standard, now commonly called Esso Standard, decided to use their old Texas based Humble name in Ohio.
Standard Oil of Ohio (Sohio) expanded to neighboring states under the extraterritorial name of Boron, one of its grades of gasoline.

Sohio's competitors, who under DOE regulations had been pumping gasoline for at least a dime a gallon more, were devastated.
At the root of the Sohio confusion is the DOE'S Kafkaesque "entitlements" system, which dates back to the first 1973-74 OPEC oil price increases, and attempts to equalize the cost of crude to all oil refiners.

 S. Zeilinger v. Sohio AK Petroleum Co. (1/3/92), 823 P 2d 653
I Sandra Zeilinger was employed by the SOHIO Alaska Petroleum Company (SAPC) in a non-exempt clerical position1 from March 6, 1978, to September 30, 1985.
From November 1979 until the date of her termination, Zeilinger worked on the North Slope; she worked a one week on/one week off schedule, and during the weeks she was off duty she returned to Anchorage.
Although she was aware that SAPC and its parent, SOHIO Petroleum Company (SPC), were in the process of reorganizing, she was under the impression from "town meetings" with SAPC management that this reorganization would not affect her.

 BP: A Legacy of Aparthied, Pollution and Exploitation
Sohio, however, is just one important part of a massive multinational corporation whose early growth was closely tied to British imperialistic expansion.
BP and Sohio agreed that BPÆs 25 percent interest in the Ohio company would be increased to 53 percent when the companiesÆ Alaska production reached 600,000 barrels a day, which occurred in January 1979.

Sohio's set was grounded by Evan Wirtley (bass, keys) and Brian McKinney (lead guitar, keys, vocals).
The name Sohio comes from the old gas station chain but also stands for Southern Ohio, their birthplace.
With genuine mutual respect and support, a hometown bond and a down-to-earth feel that reaches out from their handshakes, this connection leaks into Sohio's stage presence, enveloping it, track to track.

Sohio Alaska Petroleum Co. has announced the discovery of potentially commercial quantities of oil in the Beaufort Sea from a pool stretching at least 6 1/2 miles long.
The discoveries were made in Sohio's Sag Delta No. 7 and Sag Delta No. 4 wells just off the Sagavanirktok River northeast of the Prudhoe Bay field, North America's largest oil reservoir.
He said the new Sohio discoveries are apparently part of an oil pool that Exxon announced discoveries on last year.

As construction of the new building began, SOHIO decided that it wanted a fresh work of art to display outside its doors, directly across from one of the City’s historical landmarks, the Soldiers and Sailors Monument.
After seeing the “pad” of land with which they had to work, Oldenburg and van Bruggen, who are famous for making large replicas of common objects such as spoons, ice cream cones, and bowling pins, proposed the idea of creating an enormous stamp.
SOHIO gave Oldenburg and van Bruggen the opportunity to relocate the stamp, but the artists did not want to move it.

Now consumers in SOHIO's home state are demanding that the company share some of those profits with them.
The protesters had two demands: First, that SOHIO stop lobbying for the decontrol of natural gas, a move which would raise gas prices by 300%, according to the Neighborhood People in Action, one of the organizers of the demonstration.
Second, the groups want SOHIO to establish a $1 billion fund to cover weatherization and energy assistance for Ohio residents, whose energy needs are high, due to the cold winters in that state.

 City, Sohio Pay $900,000 To End Traffic Lawsuit - Cleveland, Ohio
Their car collided with a Standard Oil truck when Pietrzak swerved to miss the poorly lighted sweeper, which was partly blocking both northbound lanes.
The lawsuit charged that the driver of the Sohio truck was speeding and had failed to exercise caution in avoiding the Pietrzak car.
Shortly after the trial began, Sohio's offer of $275,000 was accepted, with the agreement the city would pay the difference between $275,000 and the jury verdict.

 BP U.S. - SOHIO
In 1969, BP signed an agreement with the Standard Oil Company of Ohio (SOHIO) to refine and market its crude oil from the newly discovered Prudhoe Bay on Alaska’s North Slope, the biggest oilfield in the U.S. SOHIO was the market leader in Ohio and was strongly represented in neighboring states.
Under the agreement, which became effective in 1970, SOHIO took over BP's leases at Prudhoe Bay and some East Coast downstream assets that BP had acquired in 1968.
After acquiring SOHIO outright, BP combined its existing interests in the United States with Standard's operations to form a new company: BP America.

 MASOHIO - Access to Energy Newsletter Archive
"Please kick us harder," said Sohio; it proposed to modify 30 compressor engines used by others, finance the conversion of several dry-cleaning plants, fit a coke-calcining plant with scrubbers, and install a precipitator on a local glass plant, at a cost of $30 million of Sohio's money.
To point out that all of SCE's power plants were already in compliance with the SO standard would be misunderstanding Quinn completely: Quinn's mission is not to ensure clean air, but to destroy the free enterprise system.
"Please kick us harder," whispered Sohio with dying breath as it crawled away on all fours to grovel for more permits and approvals; but with only two more permits to go, the project finally gave up the ghost, leaving Brown-out with a 10-year oil glut on his hands.

 Acrylonitrile Paper   (Site not responding. Last check: )
In the Sohio process, propylene, oxygen, ammonia, and water are fed to a fluidized-bed reactor containing a complex metal-oxide catalyst.
Small amounts of water are fed to the reactor to increase the selectivity of acrylonitrile and decrease the temperature within the reactor(Gates 381).
The Sohio process utilizes a series of complex metal-oxide catalysts.These catalysts are oxide combinations or compounds containing at least two different metals, one of which coming from the later row 5a elements.

Based on its evaluation of Sohio's amendment request, NRC staff has concluded that granting Sohio the request for ACLs will not result in significant impacts.
The staff decision was based on information provided by Sohio, demonstrating that its proposed ACLs would not pose a substantial present or potential future hazard to human health and the environment, and are as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).
Due to the attenuation capability of the formations through which the acidic ground-water plume will move, the residual amounts of uranium and selenium will be reduced to background levels that will not pose any greater health risk than that assigned to the maximum concentration limits for ground-water protection.
