Description

Michigan is regularly recognized as a manufacturing center and for its splendid tourist attractions. Lesser known is Michigan’s role as a leader within the production of oil and gas. For the reason that discovery of industrial quantities of oil in Saginaw in 1925, Michigan has grown to turn into the 12th-largest natural gas and 17th-largest crude oil producer of the 34 states producing oil and gas. Michigan’s petroleum heritage spans 64 of the state’s 68 Lower Peninsula counties and has played a task in shielding communities from the financial devastation of the Great Depression, funding acquisition of hundreds of public recreation projects during the Michigan Natural Resources Agree with Fund, and rising to fulfill environmental challenges through bettering technologies. Michigan Oil and Gas documents that heritage with photographs from the Clarke Historical Library Norman X. Lyon and Michigan Oil & Gas News Collections.
