The History of Oil

This very US centric 45 min documentary about the history of the modern oil industry is certainly worth a watch to get a feel for how the oil industry evolved, particularly in the early years before and around the early 1900′s. The famous Rockerfeller is at the heart of the story and most of the major International Oil Companies (IOCs) are a spin off from his original Standard Oil Company. Skip to the end of part 4 or start of part 5 if you would like to see some imagery of the last major oil shocks in the 1970′s.
