History

Historical Context

The Texas Oil Boom began on January 10, 1901, when the Lucas Gusher at Spindletop produced an estimated 100,000 barrels of oil daily, marking the start of the petroleum age. This discovery led to the rapid growth of companies like Texaco and Gulf Oil, transforming Beaumont into a bustling boomtown and significantly impacting the local economy and culture, a theme explored in Taylor Sheridan's series Landman.
