Nga Naung Mone is one of three oil fields near the town of Minhla, in south central Myanmar, and the largest by far. The others, Dagine and Da Hat Pin, are much smaller and less developed. Now several thousand people live and work here, and the oil fields are chockablock with derricks, many as close as 10 feet apart.
