19th Century Russian oil exploration. 1890 illustration of workers at an oil well 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. | |
