It is important that you read this article first to understand the US relationship with Saudia Arabia. (I think it shows how Saudi Arabia was manipulated by the Rockefellers.)
Saudia Arabia

I have always been fascinated by what Aramco does and what it stands for. I have always been attached to this company either emotionally or in reality.
Two years ago Saudi Aramco celebrated 75 years of oil exploration in Saudi Arabia. It was only 6 years after King Abdul Aziz announced the creation of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. That was in 1932, so in 1938 oil was discovered in oil well No. 7.
To a lot of analysts, the date of oil discovery in Saudi Arabia is when the map of strategic influence changed.
Frank Holmes geologist
EXCERPT:
Major Frank Holmes (1874 - 1947) also known as "Abu Naft" (the father of oil) in Arabic was a British geologist. He was born on a farm in Southland New Zealand in 1874, and attended Otago Boys' High School, Dunedin in 1888-89.

Vanguard At Jubail
For many in the Persian Gulf hamlet, the newcomers were the first Americans they had ever seen, and they would long remember that day when the oil industry came to Saudi Arabia.
It started with Standard Oil Co. of California (now Chevron Corp.),
EXCERPT:
It started with Standard Oil Co. of California (now Chevron Corp.), the first American firm to explore for oil in the Middle East. The company began its Middle East operations in Bahrain, where its subsidiary Bahrain Petroleum Co., brought in the first producing well on the island nation in May of 1932.
While working on Bahrain, Socal geologists Fred A. Davies and William F. Taylor became convinced that the low hills along the coast of Saudi Arabia – only 12 miles away across the Persian Gulf – were similar to the classic domal structure that paid off in Bahrain
Thomas Barger wikipedia
EXCERPT:
Thomas Barger (1909 – 1986) was an American geologist, explorer, miner, businessman and former CEO of the Arabian American Oil Company (formerly Aramco now Saudi Aramco).
Karl Twitchell
EXCERPT:
Karl Twitchell was an American mining engineer.
He surveyed for minerals in Saudi Arabia, for King 'Abd al-'Aziz. He then worked for Charles Richard Crane, looking for places to drill for water in Yemen. He decided there were no aquifers but saw the potential for oil drilling.
He first struck oil in Bahrain, which gave him a good inkling that there would be oil in Saudi Arabia due to its close proximity (12 miles).
Operation Hajji Baba
EXCERPT:
Operation Hajji Baba was a humanitarian airlift operation performed by the United States Air Force between 25 and 29 August 1952. The mission of the operation was to airlift Hajj pilgrims stranded in Beirut, Lebanon to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia before the closing of the gates to Mecca. The name for the operation was derived from the title of the book The Adventures of Hajji Baba of Ispahan, written by James Justinian Morier in 1824.

Discovery! The Story Of Aramco Then
Chapter 8: Into Production
Written by Wallace Stegner
Illustrated by Don Thompson
SYNOPSIS — In some ways 1937 was an exciting year for the company, that was now the California Arabian Standard Oil Company (Casoc) The first American wives—unveiled and nervous about it—came and settled into the raw camp at Damman Max Sieineke, in what would turn out to be a historic tri, crossed and re-crossed Arabia. Crown Prince Sa’ud came to call and came after him, England Princess Alice—to the annoyance of Benito Mussolini. But in other ways it was a most discouraging period. Police interference became intolerable, pilferage got out of hand and Damman No. 7 continued to produce nothing whatever.
The Pioneers
EXCERPT:
n the early decades of the 20th century, the people of what is today Saudi Arabia lived lives of considerable austerity. Formal education was uncommon, and the conveniences of the industrial era were mostly unknown. By the time ‘Abd al-‘Aziz ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman Al Sa‘ud—known to westerners as Ibn Sa‘ud—merged his central Arabian realm of the Najd with the western Kingdom of the Hijaz to form the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1932, the new nation was deeply in debt. The principal source of national revenue—a tax on pilgrims to Makkah—had declined sharply as the worldwide Great Depression reduced traffic to the Holy Cities.
Special Interest
EXCERPT:
"In Saudi Arabia we have a saying," said His Excellency Mr. Al-Jubair, "fire warms the body, the body and friendship warms the heart." In the first public address since he was appointed Ambassador in February, Mr. Al-Jubair painted a vivid picture of the friendship shared between President Franklin D. Roosevelt and King Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia.

Birth of a dream
Birth of a Dream
Written by Thomas C. Barger
I arrived in Saudi Arabia on December 13th 1937. I was hired in San Francisco allegedly to be a surveyor for a seismograph crew. They were very short of surveyors and needed me badly so I was rushed out to Saudi Arabia in 13 days, which was a record for the time. But when I met Max Steineke [the chief geologist] he said : Hello, sure glad to meet you, glad to have you here. I don’t know what I’ll do with you yet but I’m sure glad to have you here.’ He didn’t say anything about surveying for a seismic crew. He didn’t need one very badly, and he made me a junior geologist.

Reconsidering Out in the Blue
Cover story in Diwaniya, the weekly cultural supp;ement of the Saudi Gazette newspaper. Written by Peter Harrigan
18 March, 2002
“I get calls from readers just about every day. Just last week a Saudi called me from Riyadh to talk about a photograph in the book that showed his uncle 60 years ago. I get lots of calls like that,” says Tim Barger, video producer turned publisher, from his Californian home. Its nearly two years now since Barger edited and published the personal letters of his late father Thomas Barger under the title Out in the Blue.
The letters reveal the experiences of Thomas Barger as a young field geologist in Saudi Arabia between 1937 and 1940 and Tim Barger was as ever eager to talk of the pleasure and serendipitous moments that publishing them and the photographs have provided.
“Recently I received an email from an Ernie Berg. I thought that it was a request for the free video CD until I read it,” says Barger, “It turns out that a man named Ernie Berg idly typed his name into a search engine and up popped a picture of his father. He was Ernie Berg Jr. His father had died when he was 5 years old and his mother died 3 or 4 years later, so he knew virtually nothing about his dad. He certainly didn't know that his father was the unheralded discoverer of the largest oil field on earth. I sent him a copy of Out in the Blue and he was absolutely thrilled to read so much new information about his lost dad.”
Jefferson Caffery wikipedia
EXCERPT:
In 1934, while ambassador to Cuba, four assailants attempted an assassination of Cafferty in front of his residence in Havana. The assailants waited outside of his residence for his daily departure to his yacht club. One assailant was killed by a bodyguard, the others escaped. Ambassador Caffery was not hurt. The event was reported on the front page of the New Orleans Times Picayune, dated May 28, 1934.
In total, he worked 43 years in foreign service under eight presidents, Taft, Wilson, Harding, Calvin Coolidge, Herbert Hoover, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and Dwight Eisenhower.
He was awarded the Foreign Service Cup in 1971 by his fellow Foreign Service officers. He held several honorary degrees and decorations, including the Laetare Medal from the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana, in 1954. He received the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor from the president of France in 1949 and the Order of the Cordon of the Republic from the president of Egypt in 1955.

The story of Aramco Chapter 13
EXCERPT:
Admittedly, the plot was not unusual. Once the hard-working geologists had staked out the most likely regions and the phlegmatic, large-muscled drillers had poked into the strata of Dammam No. 7 there was no doubt that the venture would be a success. But there was a wealth of incident—the mid-Gulf explosion that took the lives of Charlie Herring and his wife, the fantastic visit to Dhahran of the King and his entourage of 5,000 followers, the fire at Dammam No. 12 which seared poor Bill Eisler and flared into one of the world's great oil fires, the air raid, in which a squadron of Italian bombers came in over the desert and dropped 50-pound fragmentation bombs on Dhahran and Bahrain.
Until that occurred—October 19, 1940—Casoc s people had not been directly affected by the war. Now and for the next four years they would be.
At first, the evacuation of wives and children aside, the impact was little more than an occasional delay in oil shipments. But as time went on the company slowly closed down most of its operations and the working force shrank to about 100 hardy souls who devoted most of the ensuing period to just surviving. One of these was Steve Furman, a supply expert who was about to have his
finest hour.
The story of Aramco Chapter 9
EXCERPT:
Saudi Arabia, a kingdom established over a period of a quarter century through the union of many amirates, sultanates and shaikhdoms, was never a clear image: its edges, or many of them, were blurred. The geographical unit of the Arabian Peninsula was not a political unit, and the precise line where the territory claimed by Ibn Sa'ud met the territory of Yemen, Aden, the Hadhramaut, Dhufar, Oman, Muscat, the Trucial Coast, or Qatar, was a matter of vague tradition and of agreements between Great Britain and Turkey that dated back to 1913 and 1914 and by which Saudi Arabia, for one, hardly considered itself bound. Where Ibn Sa'ud's territory joined the new state of Trans-Jordan was a matter of dispute. Where it met the shaikhdom of Kuwait, the buffer areas called the Kuwait and Iraq Neutral Zones, and the new state of Iraq, had been generally established between Ibn Sa'ud and Sir Percy Cox at the 1922 al-'Uqair Conference where Frank Holmes got the first oil concession for al-Hasa. The protocols of al-'Uqair described the boundaries between these northern neighbors and Saudi Arabia, but there had never been a survey, and the only available map was the Asia 1:1,000,000 Geographical Section, General Staff War Office 1917-1918, which Casoc surveyors had demonstrated to be inaccurate by as much as 25 miles at some points. Neither was there an adequate hydrographic chart of the Arabian side of the Gulf.
It was inevitable that the Company should take an interest in these blurred edges, for the concession ran to the boundaries of the country on south and east and north. But the Concession Agreement specifically prohibited any interference by the Company in the political affairs of Saudi Arabia, and the Company therefore could make no move to try to define its concession borders more clearly. It did, however, take the initiative in the hydrographic survey of the Gulf. And it did at the Government's request provide its surveyors on two occasions, once to survey in connection with an Iraqi party the border region along the north, from Kuwait to the Trans-Jordan border, and once to establish astronomical stations in the region around Selwa, at the foot of the Qatar Peninsula.
The story of Aramco Chapter 11 The Unicorns of Dahna
EXCERPT:
Written by Wallace Stegner
Illustrated by Don Thompson
SYNOPSIS: There wasn't ever a time, it seemed later, when everyone could just relax and say the job is done. For more than 15 years the effort to find Arabian oil had been underway—starting with the adventurers and financiers of the 1920's and ending with the successful discovery of oil in 1938 by the California Arabian Standard Oil Company—but the pace had never slackened.
One reason was that the Saudi Government kept coming up with little jobs for Casoc to do. One involved the assignment of two surveyors to define certain of the kingdom's boundaries, now, when they might include or exclude a major oil field, of primary importance. Another had to do with hydrographic soundings in the Gulf, a job that was assigned to likeable Charlie Herring. Charlie started the job but never finished it. En route for a day's outing on Bahrain he and his wife Pauline were killed when the cranky company launch exploded and sank.
They had other tasks too, like preparing for the first visit of King Ibn Sa'ud. The King led a caravan of 500 cars and 2,000 people to Dhahran to preside over ceremonies marking the day the first tanker carrying Saudi Arabian crude sailed to western oil markets.
Then came the fire.
On July 8, 1939, Dammam No. 12 exploded, sending a shock wave of sound and air rolling across the desert and a column of flames 200 feet in the air. One man was killed instantly and Bill Eisler was burned so badly that Monte Hawkins' heroic rescue and the subsequent medical efforts were of no value. He died a few hours later.
