Octane Springs is a large oil field inGrand Theft Auto: San Andreas which is located in mid-easternBone County,San Andreas.
Description[]
The refinery's pumps and derricks, which can be easily spotted from the nearby tracks of theBrown Streak Railroad, serviceGreen Palms, the refinery located immediately to the west. It has exactly 13 pumps. Many of the moving components on the pumpjacks are not solid and the player will pass right through them. The Octane Springs area used to be completely grassy which can be noticed around the pumps.
To the northwest of Octane Springs isArea 69, while to the south isHunter Quarry. Meanwhile, east of the oil field isLas Venturas, specifically theBlackfield district.
The name is derived fromOctane, a component of gasoline which comes from petroleum and a spring referring to the field's underground source of petroleum being pumped out by the pumpjacks and oil wells. This suggests that it is most likely the source of the fuel sold byTosser,Gasso,Going andXoomer, which is then shipped to the nearbyGreen Palms refinery via the pipelines that can be seen in-game.
The oil field could be based on theForeland Eagle Springs Refinery inNye County,Nevada.
