Congratulations Mark Bookmyer, Site Manager, LyondellBasell, recipient of the 2026 Industry Icon Award at the 17th Annual Gulf Coast Industry Forum!

GCIF brings together the resources, experience, and network of the Houston Port Region to support the continued growth and prosperity of the Petrochemical, Maritime, and Logistics industries along the Gulf Coast.

With 850+ attendees, 44 exhibits, and 70+ volunteers, this yearโ€™s GCIF was our largest gathering since its inception, and a fitting stage to recognize Mark for his leadership, dedication, and lasting impact on our industry and region.

Congratulations, Mark, on this well-deserved honor!

A special thank you to Russell Carter, Chairman of GCIF & Principal Consultant at Longleaf Industrial, along with the team at LyondellBasell for creating and sharing this incredible video capturing this memorable moment.
