Abstract
The tall framework of this oil derrick is being set up over an oil well. It will support boring equipment or raise and lower lengths of pipes to assist in the extraction of oil from this well. There are men working at nearly every corner of the base of the derrick, two men are in the field and there is a man working on an upper platform, to ensure that it is properly erected. To the left of this structure are a number of buildings or sheds, where the extracted oil will be stored. There is another oil derrick in the background at left and behind it, on the hill, are two large oil storage tanks.
