About this map

The Smackover Oil and Gas Field dominates this early 1960s landscape, reflecting the heavy industrial footprint of petroleum extraction in southern Arkansas. The map illustrates a dense infrastructure of production, including numerous oil wells, several Oil Refineries, a sprawling Tank Farm, and a large Chemical Plant. These facilities are concentrated around the settlements of Smackover and Norphlet, where the Missouri Pacific railroad provided the vital transport link for the region's mineral wealth.
