<ref>Journal of the Institution of Petroleum technologists, volume 1 1914-15, p3</ref> | |||
A library was immediately set up so that knowledge could be shared between members<ref>Journal of the Institution of Petroleum technologists, volume 1 1914-15,p5</ref> | |||
In 1938 professionals allied to the petroleum industry, but not petroleum technologists, were also permitted to join and the name changed to The Institute of Petroleum.<ref>Sell, George. The history of The Institute of Petroleum 1913-1965. Institute of Petroleum, 1964</ref> | |||
===The Institute of Energy (IOE)=== | |||
1927 - The Institution of Fuel Economy Engineers IFEE (created 1925) and The Institution of Fuel Technology IFT (creaded 1927) merged to form The Institute of Fuel (IoF) – concerned with the selection and utilization of energy and all fuel resources. | |||
1979 - The Institute of Fuel changed its name to The Institute of Energy (IoE) <ref>Hayman, Roy. The Institute of Fuel: the first 50 years. The Institute of Fuel, 1977.</ref>– because “our concern must now also include nuclear energy, renewable energy resources such as wave, wind and tidal power, solar and geothermal energy, the economics of energy conversion processes and of course, energy policy. The central role that energy plays in the economy is, at last, appreciated by politicians, administrators and even by ‘the man in the street’. <ref>Fells, Ian (Prof), IoE President, Energy World, April 1979 p2.</ref> | |||
===Energy Institute=== | |||
July 2003 - The Institute of Petroleum and the Institute of Energy merged to become the Energy Institute<ref>Petroleum Review, July 2003, p42</ref> | |||
