Oil Rigging and Labor in Alameda California Archive of 37 Large Format photographs 1970s-80s

1970233511970. Rigging International photographs of refinery vessels crawler transporters port cranes and module lifts place oil-industry labor at the center of the late 1970s and early 1980s energy buildout. Captions in the group name offloading modules at Prudhoe Bay on Alaska's North Slope moving a 420 ton nuclear vessel from Oceanside to San Onofre erecting refinery vessels at Come-By-Chance Newfoundland offloading a 550 ton refinery vacuum tower in Aruba and handling 130 ton bulk-loader cranes at Cherry Point Ferndale Washington. The archive is best dated to roughly the late 1970s and early 1980s from its overlap with San Onofre Units 2 and 3 after the Atomic Energy Commission issued construction permits in 1973 and with Prudhoe Bay work after the Trans-Alaska Pipeline began operating in 1977; Rigging International later identified Alameda California as its world headquarters. Rigging International. Archive of 34 large format photographs. Circa late 1970s to early 1980s Alameda California with projects in California Alaska Hawaii Washington Newfoundland Aruba and Sweden. Each 8" x 10" predominantly color with a few black-and-white prints. Captions identify specialized heavy-lift and transport work in refinery construction marine offloading nuclear-component hauling port-crane erection maintenance and machinery installation with recurring references to crawler transporters barge operations lifting frames and oversized refinery vessels. Specific projects documented in the visible prints include Come-By-Chance refinery work in Newfoundland; San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station transport; Hanford reactor hauling; Prudhoe Bay module offloading; the Port of Oakland and Port of San Francisco; the Hawaiian Independent Refinery; Spreckels sugar refinery in Salinas; Cherry Point bulk-loader crane installation near Ferndale; and the Total concrete jacket construction site at Stord Norway. Labor shown in this archive document the transport lifting erection and maintenance work required to make energy production function across refineries ports and offshore supply systems. The North Slope photographs belong to the years after the Trans-Alaska Pipeline opened Prudhoe Bay to sustained high-volume production while the refinery and marine-lift photographs align with a broader period in which energy companies expanded output through new modules replacement vessels piping additions and upgraded handling systems rather than through constant construction of entirely new refineries. Alameda Oakland San Francisco Ferndale Aruba Newfoundland and Hawaii appear here as linked points in that industrial geography joined by the labor of crews moving vacuum towers reactors cranes and process equipment too large for ordinary transport. Light handling wear scattered edge wear minor curling and a few corner bends visible across the prints; overall good condition. A record of the heavy-lift labor that built and maintained oil and industrial infrastructure during the post-1973 energy expansion. unknown

Massachusetts Oil Industry and DistributionBiblio.com

Early Petroleum Horse Drawn Distribution in Massachusetts Before Automotive Conversion 1900-15

1900233021900. Massachusetts oil delivery photographs documenting the horse drawn transport system that moved petroleum products through small town New England before motor trucks displaced wagon distribution. Images depict oil wagons teamsters and tank rigs tied to local commercial delivery via horse and carriage. The turn of the century marked an industrial boom when kerosene lubricants and other oil products circulated through growing towns. This archive shows how it's its daily movement still relied on animal power and local hand delivery. Photo archive of 5 albumen and silver gelatin photographs and one RPCC photos measuring about 3.5" x 5" with various sized mounts Ashfield Massachusetts circa 1900-15. Three photographs bear photographer credit on the reverse to A.W. & G.E. Howes Ashfield Mass. One view shows a line of horse drawn tank wagons posed along an unpaved street before frame houses and utility poles with drivers seated in their rigs and teams held in place for a group portrait; the company is identified as Consumers Oil Company as visible on one of the carriages. A second image shows a single horse and tank wagon before a brick commercial building painted "UNION GARAGE" linking oil delivery by wagon to the emerging repair and automobile service trade. Two photographs are duplicate prints of the same scene each showing a man beside a white horse and covered oil wagon while a child sits on the driver's seat beneath the canopy; the man holds a metal can and partial wagon lettering ending in "OIL CO." is visible on the side. Another photograph shows a two horse team hitched to a larger wagon with partial company lettering also ending in "OIL CO." Massachusetts was deeply tied to the early oil economy not as a major drilling region but as a refining shipping storage and consumption market linked to the industrial Northeast. By the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries petroleum products moved into the state through rail and coastal trade then outward through local dealers who supplied homes shops farms garages and machinery with kerosene fuel and lubricants. These photographs place that distribution system at ground level in Ashfield where horses still pulled the wagons that served an industry increasingly associated with mechanization and the rise of motor transport. Light fading and surface wear throughout; several mounts chipped at corners and edges; one of the duplicate pair having a 1.5" chip to the right side of the mount. Photos mostly show no signs of loss though the sepia photograph on the largest mount has a small chip to edge and a 0.5" tear to left side where horse's face is. Overall good condition. A compact Massachusetts record of the petroleum trade at the moment when horse drawn delivery and automotive modernity still occupied the same street. unknown

Oil Industry Foreigner in Meiji Era Japan Photo Archive Over 150 Annotated Photos 1900s

1900233951900. Turn-of-the-century Japan photo archive documenting foreign commercial travel oil and mining activity rural labor and domestic life during the late Meiji era when Japan was rapidly building railways mines refineries modern ports and industrial companies after the 1868 Meiji Restoration. The material appears connected to a Western man and his family moving through Japan in connection with oil extraction or related industrial work with repeated views of derricks refinery sites pipe trenches miners labor crews interpreters servants hotels villages and named regional destinations. Images show various scenes throughout northern Japan such as Hokkaido settlements Sapporo gatherings Naoetsu refinery work Nara and coastal travel household service and encounters between foreign visitors and Japanese workers at a time when foreign technical knowledge and Japanese state-backed industrial growth were reshaping the country. Photo archive of more than 150 photographs including approximately 6 cyanotypes and numerous silver gelatin and albumen photographs sizes range between 2" x 3.5" to 4" x 6" Japan circa late 1890s to early 1900s. Nearly every image bears a handwritten caption en verso identifying places people professions work scenes and social relationships. Captions include "Launching conveying pipe to and from steamship Corea Yokohama" "Refinery location Naoetsu Japan" "Celebrating the fall of Mukden Sapporo Mar. 21st 1905" "Crowd at Naoetsu Hotel" "Working on foundation for refinery Naoetsu" "Digging a great ditch for drain pipe from refinery to ocean" "Drillers and visitors" "Japanese servants at home in the bamboo grove" "Old American Naval Hospital" and "Mines & Smelters Sumitake Hotel Omori Japan." Workers dig trenches handle pipe gather beside derricks and refinery structures pose at mine entrances stand near kilns and industrial yards and move through villages and hotel courtyards. Other scenes record women in kimono children household staff rickshaw pullers street processions with rising-sun banners thatched structures coastal views mission or hospital buildings and Western family members partaking in local culture seated in gardens or standing among Japanese attendants and guides. The archive records Japan's industrial modernization from the perspective of foreign business presence rather than official state publicity. Oil had been produced in Japan since the nineteenth century especially in regions such as Niigata while Hokkaido mining railway building and settlement became central to Meiji development; this group places those broader changes inside fieldwork travel and household arrangements. The handwritten captions add another layer of specification by naming locations and functions that would otherwise be difficult to identify especially the refinery and drilling views. Condition varies across the group with curling fading toning creasing edge wear occasional surface loss and some with missing corners; images generally clean and clear captions remain present and visible on many versos. Overall in very good condition. By the turn of the century oil fields in Niigata and Akita were part of Japan's push to build an industrial economy but domestic crude was limited and often difficult to refine. The archive also reflects the unequal social and technical relationships that accompanied Meiji industrial expansion with foreign commercial specialists Japanese labor crews domestic servants and frontier extraction zones appearing together within the same industrial landscape. unknown

First editions of these very scarce Standard Oil Company Indiana sales publications by one of the independent oil companies to emerge after the breakup of Standard Oil in 1911. Standard Oil Indiana pioneered the â€œcrackingâ€ process for refining crude oil under pressure resulting in far higher yields of gasoline and the many byproducts and by the mid-1920s was the third largest oil refiner in the U.S. behind Standard Oil New Jersey and Standard Oil California. This very scarce salesmanâ€™s advertising manual was created for distribution around the time that Standard Indiana had merged with the American Oil Co. Amoco and was looking to streamline both their purchasing and marketing pitches to service stations wholesalers and jobbers. The manual continually extolls the product diversity and reach of the Standard Indiana Company with Sinclair Dixie Pan-American Petroleum and Midwest Refining as subsidiaries the extensive fleet of oil tankers railroad tank cars and chain of service stations. The splendid sample catalogues encompass a range of styles and products including Red Crown gasoline featuring an Art Deco cover of a Standard Oil service station; the high octane Red crown Gasoline; Neolite kerosene for more efficiently and economically raising poultry; competing motor oils of Iso-Vis and Polarine designed for Ford engines; as well as Mica Axle Grease used to coat hog scratching poles; Merusol Petrolatum White petrolatum used as a non-stick coating for bakeries and with a number of â€œmedicalâ€ applications as well or the KIP insecticide used for everything from ants and flies to bed bugs and mosquitoes. Also included are customer sales letters sample thank you letters sales goals tips and more. The second volume focuses on an extended article by MacMeekin on the Standard Indiana purchasing department which at the end of the 1920s was spending over $ 50 million a year on 14000 different items ranging from rare Asian flowers to wax from the head of whales pins by the ton locomotives and everything else to fuel the massive oil company.
