About this map

The industrial development of the Kern County oil fields is meticulously documented in this survey, where the convergence of the Sunset Railroad and the Sunset Road facilitates a dense network of petroleum infrastructure. The landscape is defined by the Maricopa Flat, a terrain punctuated by numerous oil wells and specialized refining facilities. Key operations such as the Lakeview Refining Co and the Richfield Refining Plant No 11 are situated near the settlement of Pentland, illustrating the area's economic focus during the early 1930s.
