Midland Texas Drive Lapse with Oilfield Museum 4k
Midland Texas Drive Lapse with Oilfield Museum. Cruising around the West Texas oilfield town Midland Texas. Bonus includes a walk around of the Midland Petroleum Museum.
Midland was established in June 1881 as Midway Station, on the Texas and Pacific Railway. By 1890, it had become one of the most important cattle shipping centers in the state. Midland was changed significantly by the discovery of oil in the Permian Basin in 1923 when the Santa Rita No. 1 well began producing in Reagan County, followed shortly by the Yates Oil Field in Iraan. Soon, Midland was transformed into the administrative center of the West Texas oil fields. During the Second World War, Midland was the largest bombardier training base in the country. A second boom period began after the war, with the discovery and development of the Spraberry Trend, still ranked as the third-largest oil field in the United States by total reserves. Yet another boom period took place during the 1970s, with the high oil prices associated with the oil and energy crises of that decade. Today, the Permian Basin produces one fifth of the nation's total petroleum and natural gas
output.

Odessa Texas / Permian Basin UTPB Road Tour 4k
Odessa Texas / Permian Basin road tour video. I was back home driving around West Texas checking out my old stomping grounds. A lot has changed.
Odessa Texas is located in Ector County with some parts it residing in Midland County. Odessa's name is some what a mystery, it's said to be named by Russian immigrants who once help build the rail road through the region. It's said to have been named after Odessa, Ukraine, because of the local shortgrass prairie's resemblance to Ukraine's steppe landscape.
Odessa was founded in 1881 as a water stop and cattle-shipping point on the Texas and Pacific Railway. The first post office opened in 1885. Odessa became the county seat of Ector County in 1891 when the county was first organized. It was incorporated as a city in 1927, after oil was discovered in Ector County on the Connell Ranch southwest of Odessa.With the opening of the Penn Field in 1929, and the Cowden Field in 1930, oil became a major draw for new residents.
Odessa is the birth home to many notable people:
Raymond Benson: writer/author of which many James Bond movies was based on.
Chris Kyle: U.S. Navel Seal (Book/movie American Sniper)
