Northern Oilfields

The Northern Oilfields (also known as the North Sunrise Oil Fields) are located in the Badlands, to the north of Night City.
==History==
===1990s - 2020s===
In the the early 1990s, Petrochem bought the oil drilling rights for an area located near the township of Morro Bay, which extended into the neighboring sea. This occurred around the same time of the 1992 Morro Bay Massacre that destroyed the township and other nearby settlements. Businessman Richard Night patterned with Petrochem and other corporations to form the Coronado Partnership, taking ownership over the whole region surrounding Morro Bay and founding the metropolis of Coronado City in 1994, later renamed to Night City in 1998.
While the city was being constructed, Petrochem established a number of oil fields to the north, occupying a sizable landmass that was soon filled with oil rigs and extractors that extended into the bay itself. Soon after, Petrochem also built a refinery terminal in South Night City's coast, where they transformed the oil into different products that were later shipped to other parts of the world by using cargo vessels. Another company that had refinery facilities in the area was Prudhoe Pride Oil.
The oil fields around Night City never became any major venture for Petrochem, but they enjoyed a decidedly relaxed regulatory framework. For this reason they only maintained a small, but sizable office building in Corporate Plaza. Although the economy of Night City never relied heavily on the extraction, it did contribute to its origins.
===2040s - 2070s===
At some point during or after the reconstruction period of Night City, the oil fields became a joint project of Petrochem and Night Corp.
By the 2070s, the smoke-filled and highly toxic oil fields were often seen as an irreparable scar which simply disfigured the face of Night City. A silent, but telling reminder of the metropolis' shady beginnings.
