The GPA Midstream Association and affiliated GPSA midstream suppliers association recognized several individuals with distinguished service awards.
“GPA Midstream is a member-driven organization with a small professional staff, so we depend heavily on volunteers,” said GPA Midstream President and CEO Joel Moxley.
“These individuals have consistently gone above and beyond to help GPA Midstream carry out our mission and, to put it frankly, get things done. All have their own busy and challenging jobs, but they also consistently show up and deliver to the needs of our association and this industry, and we are pleased to recognize them for their selfless dedication in this way,” added Moxley.
The GPA Midstream Lifetime Achievement Award honors individuals who have positively impacted the association and midstream industry through career efforts and achievements. GPA Midstream presents its 2020 Lifetime Achievement Award to Gary Bartlett, president of Bartlett Equipment Co. (Tulsa, Oklahoma). Bartlett served as a GPSA director for 24 years, and his active participation influenced the advancement of the midstream industry and the processor/supplier relationship during his nearly 50-year career.
The Donald L. Katz Award, one of GPA Midstream’s highest honors, recognizes outstanding accomplishments in midstream research and technology and excellence in engineering education. The 2020 Katz Award goes to Dr. Jürgen Gmehling, retired German professor of technical and industrial chemistry at the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg, known worldwide for his work in the fields of thermodynamics, technical chemistry and chemical engineering. His scientific and practical merits are innumerable, and many are now standard practice for virtually all chemical engineers.
