More than 20 seniors from Hamilton and Dorsey High Schools joined energy industry employees from California Resources Corporation and the California Independent Petroleum Association to learn about careers in the oil and gas industry. Students were given an overview of the oil and gas industry and a presentation on a summer internship program with oil and gas companies in Bakersfield that is administered through the California Independent Petroleum Association for Los Angeles area high school seniors. After the presentations, employees from California Resources Corporation toured students around THUMS Island where they learned first-hand about STEM field careers in the oil and gas industry.
