The Story
Officers in charge of vast petroleum reserve look over oil field maps rather than navigation charts as they check progress of maintenance crews on more than 1,000 pumps at the wealthiest Navy base in the world, located in parched, rolling hills between Bakersfield and Taft, California. The $3 billion oil field is so rich, it still overflows with $8 million of oil per year despite efforts to curb the flow. Its 46,095 acres are favored by nature with more than one billion barrels of recoverable oil.
