The Clean Resource Innovation Network (CRIN) emerged in 2017 and has grown into a rich collective of people and companies across the country aligned to a common objective—reducing our carbon footprint.
As an umbrella organization, CRIN now boasts approximately 1749 members, working within various theme areas to develop the research, technologies, products, and innovations to produce the world’s best and cleanest hydrocarbon products.
