19th Century Russian oil and fuel plant. 1890 illustration of workers with crude oil tanks at an oil and fuel factory in Baku, Russia (now Azerbaijan). Drilling for oil began in Baku in the mid 1800s but large-scale oil exploration started in 1872, when Russian imperial authorities auctioned the parcels of oil-rich land around Baku to private investors. | |
