The first oil refinery in Pittsburgh was built by Samuel Kier in 1853. Kier, who was initially a druggist, recognized the potential of refining crude oil into kerosene for lighting. His refinery marked a significant step in the development of the petroleum industry in the United States. This innovation paved the way for the growth of oil refining in the region and beyond.

1856 was the year that the first oil refinery was finished being built. The first oil refineries in the world were built by Ignacy Lukasiewicz near Jasto, Austrian Empire (now in Poland) from 1854 to 1856, but they were initially small as there was no real demand for refined fuel. As Łukasiewicz's kerosene lamp gained popularity, the refining industry grew in the area.
