2016 Map of Parks

About this map

Parks Oil Field dominates the central landscape of this West Texas terrain, where the industrial infrastructure of energy production meets the ephemeral hydrology of the Permian Basin. The winding course of Monahans Draw carves through the northern and western sections, providing a natural contrast to the rigid grid of petroleum access roads and county lines. This area of Midland County is defined by its transit networks, anchored by the north-south artery of Ranch Rd 1788 and the east-west passage of Dora Roberts Rd. The map illustrates a high concentration of localized features related to oil extraction, showing how the landscape has been systematically organized for resource recovery through an extensive network of secondary roads such as W Co Rd 170 and S Co Rd 1270.
