Taft is at the center of the Midway Sunset Oilfield, the largest oilfield in the lower forty-eight states.  Although the petroleum industry is experiencing a tough downturn as this is written, there is no doubt that the largest industry in Kern County is centered on the West Side, boasting the iconic names in petroleum of Chevron, AERA Energy, Exxon Mobil, Phillips, California Resources Corporation, Key Energy, Holmes, and many others.  If renowned oilman T. Boone Pickens, in his remarks at last year’s West Kern Petroleum Summit (part of the 2015 Oildorado event), is to be believed, this latest challenge to the petroleum industry will be temporary and instructive.
