Murphy Oil supplies hydrocarbons—especially NGL streams like ethane, propane, and butanes—that serve as key feedstocks for petrochemical manufacturing. Formerly integrated, the company became a pure-play E&P after spinning off its U.S. retail fuel business as Murphy USA in 2013. Founded in 1950, it has a long operating history across offshore and onshore basins.
