About Associates
Welcome to the new and improved WSPA Associates website.
This section has been redesigned to provide you, our valued allies and Associates, easy access to a searchable database of Associate members, upcoming events, information on important legislation and regulations that impact your business and opportunities to make your voice heard in the democratic process.
A new feature is the WSPA Associates Community. This new forum is a place for Associates to post information about their services and opportunities and discuss common issues of interest and importance.
We hope you find this new feature useful. And let us know how we can improve it.
About the WSPA Associates
Together, we can make a difference
The WSPA Associates is a voluntary organization of diverse individuals and businesses who furnish goods and services to the petroleum industry.
Members of the WSPA Associates work together to ensure that our domestic petroleum industry remains a strong contributor to this region's vitality and quality of life. The group actively promotes and supports all aspects of petroleum and natural gas development and operations in the West. WSPA Associates are committed to meeting the energy needs of the region in an environmentally responsible manner.
By bringing together companies and individuals that have a stake in the petroleum industry, WSPA Associates represent a persuasive force advocating for economic and environmental balance. Foremost among their activities are:
Advocacy
WSPA Associates often participate on the industry's behalf in public hearings on legislative and regulatory issues. Members have been invited to make presentations at the state and local level on such important issues as refining & offshore operations, pipeline and tanker transportation, air & water quality, safety and environmental remediation.
Information
The WSPA Associates program keeps members up to date on public policy developments by holding issue awareness programs, hosting speakers at periodic membership meetings, and distributing communication materials. WSPA Associates also take part in community and education programs and share expertise on energy related issues by serving on a variety of committees and advisory groups.
Membership Benefits
The WSPA Associates program presents members with a unique opportunity to become better acquainted with industry colleagues and others who share a strong commitment to America's energy future.
