Global Oil Production Co is a gas extraction facility located at 2209 E 'I' St, Wilmington, California, in the Los Angeles County. The plant is currently operational and contributes to the United States' gas infrastructure network. As a gas extraction site, it plays a role in the upstream segment of the natural gas supply chain. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and DOT 49 CFR Part 192, which govern pipeline safety and gas transmission. The plant's NAICS code 211111 indicates it is involved in crude petroleum and natural gas extraction, a sector that typically includes drilling and well operations. In California, gas extraction facilities are subject to state-level environmental and safety regulations, including those from the California Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM). The plant's location in Wilmington, a port area near Los Angeles, places it in an industrial zone with proximity to populated areas. Its operational status suggests ongoing contribution to local energy supply. The facility's role in the broader gas infrastructure includes supporting downstream processing and distribution networks that serve residential, commercial, and industrial customers in Southern California.

The facility is situated in an industrial area of Wilmington, near the Port of Los Angeles, which is a major hub for energy and shipping. Proximity to populated areas necessitates adherence to strict safety and emissions regulations. The region is subject to seismic activity, requiring infrastructure designed to withstand earthquakes. Air quality management is also a key concern due to the combination of industrial emissions and urban pollution.
