Oil Boom in Southeast New Mexico and Regional Growth
In the 1920s oil scouts eyed southeastern New Mexico after a Texas strike. Midwest Refining drilled in 1927, hitting 700 barrels daily, followed by Humble Oil with a 9000 barrel daily gusher near Hobbs. Pipelines now serve NM, Arizona, California, and the Northwest, adding about 28.06 million annually. NM’s oil value exceeds 300 million.
