摘要

THE petroleum industry maybe said to have originated with the discovery of an efficient commercial method of producing burning oil. There were several attempts to do this on a small scale in the early part of the nineteenth century, but none of these was of any commercial importance until Selligue produced shale oil in France in 1838 and James Young started in 1848 to refine crude petroleum from the Riddings Colliery in Derbyshire, and subsequently applied his well-known process to torbanite and oil shales.
