USGS Topo · Published 1930

About this map

Kettleman Hills dominate the topography of this survey, defining a period of early twentieth-century petroleum exploration in Kings County. The landscape is marked by industrial infrastructure including multiple Oil Wells, an Oil Prospect, and an Oil Pumping Sta, reflecting the intensive development of the Kettleman North Dome area shortly after its discovery. This industrial activity is centered within the broader Kettleman Plain, flanked by the prominent uplift of Reef Ridge to the west.
