The Arabian American Oil Company also known as Aramco emerged from US efforts to extract and refine crude oil in the Arabian Peninsula. The California-Arabian Standard Oil Company discovered oil at Dhahran in 1937 which was extracted at a rate of 115 barrels a day. This became the first commercial well in Saudi Arabia and was a breakthrough for American Oilmen looking for reservoirs of 'black gold' overseas. In 1944 the company changed its name to the Arabian American Oil Company. These photographs were almost all taken by Aramco to showcase the company's logistical and mechanical achievements as well as the care it took of its workforce. Many of the photos were circulated in the Aramco World Magazine and Sun and Flare internal company magazines that were generally intended to boost the company's corporate identity as well as improve relations with the Saudi world around them. Contents include: Aramco hardware drill; pipes and coating machine for the trans-Arabian pipeline; stabilising plant at Dhahran; Aramco employees at work Saudi employees filling tank car; Saudi employee operating temperature gauge; Aramco employee towns and living quarters senior staff housing in Abqaiq; Aramco houses at Rahimah near Ras Tanura; various aerial views probably of Dhahran; Saudi townscapes and vernacular buildings school in Hofuf; market at Hofuf; Riyadh old town; etc.; American and Saudi employee recreations boat trip to Tarout Island; American wives shopping; swimming pool at Dhahran etc.; portraits and posed photographs 'Qidaith ibn Mubarak … Starting as a laborer he advances to the position of assistant driller'.
