correct.
the oilfields were part of a long brokered deal that ended with Bakersfield taking defacto control of them after the second Mexican War in 2014.
For a time they were under joint administration ,but this came to an end after the brief civil war between San Simeon and Bakersfield in 2014. (LA and Santa Maria were co-bellingerents but took no or little part in the actual fighting .They did use threathening language though .WillisCo supplied both sides .) The war was fought mainly as an airwar ,SanSimeons bombers wrought severe damage on several bakersfield installations forcing general Sanchez to sue for terms .Some territory shifted hands though ,mainly between Bakersfield and Santa Maria and Santa Maria and LA.Santa Maria and the house of takashi was deemed to have profitted the most from the war ,gaining a 50% increase in territory as well as valuable petroleum rights in its areas.
(see the PACGOV OIL DEAL also known as the PacGov Oil War )
TRIVIA: the war was never formally ended with only a cease fire coming into effect.The ceasefire still holds -for what thats worth.
most of the oilfields are blazing fires now ,after being attacked by conventional and nuclear weapons during the latter part of the 2nd American Civil War.
