The main headquarters was at Bliss, Oklahoma; now known as Marland, named for E.W.Marland the founder of the Marland Oil Company which bought the Continental Oil Company located at Orem, Utah and moved it to Ponca City (Oklahoma) where it became known as Conoco (now Conoco-Phillips after they acquired Phillips 66 of Bartlesville, Ok.). The main headquarters is now in Houston.
