Baker Hughes Oilfield Operations Inc. Facility is a fuel terminal situated at 199 Corps Rd, Venice Barge Terminal in Venice, Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. The facility is operational and serves the oilfield industry in the Gulf Coast region. As a fuel terminal in Louisiana, the facility operates under the regulatory framework of the US EPA, including Underground Storage Tank (UST) regulations and Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) rules. These regulations mandate secondary containment, leak detection, and spill response plans to mitigate environmental risks. The facility plays a key role in supporting oilfield operations by providing fuel storage and distribution services. Its location near the Mississippi River and Gulf of Mexico facilitates barge and pipeline transport, contributing to the regional energy infrastructure.

The facility is located in a coastal wetland area of Louisiana, which is ecologically sensitive due to its role in storm surge protection and wildlife habitat. Proximity to the Mississippi River and Gulf of Mexico increases the risk of spills impacting aquatic ecosystems. Secondary containment and regular inspections are critical to prevent releases.
