Exhibit To Show Famed Oil Drill
Houston exhibit at the Oil Equipment and Engineering Exposition April 8 to 13 will feature a rotary drilling rig used to bring in the Sprindletop discovery well. Invented by M C and C E Baker of North Dakota, the rig dates to 1895 Texas industry work. Their idea arose after trouble with deep returns, reversing the drill stem to extract mud with a wind mill pump nearby, leading to the modern rotary principle. The Baker brothers later marketed the rig as jumbo-buster.
