In the early 1900s, oil rigs primarily used a method called "drilling" to extract oil. They employed a simple rotary drilling technique, where a drill bit was rotated to penetrate the earth and reach oil reservoirs. Once the oil was discovered, it was pumped to the surface using primitive pumps, often called "nodding donkeys" or "jack pumps." The collected oil was then stored in tanks or transported via pipelines for refining and distribution.
