Boxscore's History
1954	The HPI Construction Boxscore has been published continuously since 1954. This listing of construction projects on a global basis, has been a favorite tool of marketers and salespeople as a means of identifying capital projects in the refining, petrochemical, chemical and gas processing industry. The exclusive survey, done three times a year and updated in the February, June and October issues of HYDROCARBON PROCESSING gave a quick compilation of project type, estimated date of project completion, location, engineering firm, licensor and construction firm.
1973	As the number of projects grew in the Boxscore Data Base, to over 3,000, the ability to sift through the information in a timely fashion was enhanced with the launch of the Computer Analysis of the HPI Construction Boxscore in 1973. This analysis, instead of just providing the geographic breakdown of the Boxscore that is found in the magazine, also broke down the projects by engineering firm, operators and licensors allowing greater flexibility and ease of use.
1990s	In the early nineties, the Boxscore underwent another change becoming available in a fully searchable database on CD-Rom as a subscription service. This allowed companies to track their share of market in construction activity by type of project, type of firm and geographic location. This development was widely accepted by the industry.
