British geologist George B. Reynolds and workers drilling for oil and striking oil in Masjed Soleyman, Iran, Persia.

  • Location: Masjed Soleyman Iran
  • Date: 1908, May 26
  • Duration: 2 min 55 sec
  • Sound: NO SOUND
  • Clip: 65675036727

Activities of George B. Reynolds and his team operating an oil drilling mechanism in Masjed Soleyman, Iran. Reynolds, representing the Anglo-Persian Oil Company or APOC, (which later became British Petroleum in 1954, or BP), studies maps while smoking a pipe. An oil rig set up in the desert at the location Masjid-i-Sulaiman. Workers and mechanics working at the rig. Close views of the diary records of George B. Reynolds. Men work on oil rigs under intense sun. The oil rig working and striking oil; a cloud of smoke and fire from the ground. Close views of a binder holding letter from Lewis Mallet to the British foreign office announcing the successful oil discovery. A seemingly unrelated two-second view of 1908-era motor cars on a street follows.
