Description

The company was formed to exploit oil deposits at Sabunchi, north-east of Baku. The existence of petroleum around Baku has been known since the 8th century. The first oil-well was drilled in 1846, but serious commercial exploitation began only in 1872 and by the beginning of the twentieth century the Baku oil fields were the largest in the world. By 1900 the city had more than 3,000 oil-wells, of which 2,000 were producing oil at industrial levels. Towards the end of the twentieth century much of the onshore petroleum had been exhausted, and drilling had extended into the sea offshore.
