About

Who We Are

1950

Founded in 1950 by Mr. W.B. McCartney, Sr. with one used bulldozer and a note with four co-signers used to build drilling locations the company was born.

1960

The local fuel and lube distributor passed away. At the same time, the new generation of drilling rigs were using diesel as fuel instead of propane. This presented an opportunity that transformed McCartney Oil into the company it is today. The newly formed fuel distributorship was branded Amoco on the fuel side and Amoco and Parade on the lubricants side.

1962

As business progressed and more service stations were buying fuel the need arose to be a full service dealer to those customers. The TBA (tires, batteries, and accessories) was established with the addition of a BF Goodrich dealership.

1973

Retirement. For the first 23 years of this young company, Mr. McCartney had a full time job as a toolpusher for Justiss Oil Company and it was time for him to make this his full time occupation.

1974

Mr. McCartney’s second son Joe graduated from college and came back to Jena to run the McCartney Contracting arm of McCartney Oil Company/
