Primary Evidence
"At the turn of the century Russia was supplying more than half the world’s oil, but the troubles of 1903–1906 marked the end of that leadership and spelled defeat for Nobel, Rothschild, and the other Russian producers in the Thirty Years War."

"It was commonly said in Russia that among the two hundred oil barons of Baku only ten were honest: Nobel, an Armenian, and eight Moslems."

"By 1916 Nobel owned, controlled, or had substantial interest in companies producing a third of all Russian crude oil, 40 percent of all the refined, and supplying almost two-thirds of domestic consumption. There were more than four hundred tank farms and depots flying the Nobel banner and the company commanded the largest private fleet in the world."
