BCE MACH LLC / BUTTERSCOTCH 15 28 14 1H STATION - Oil Extraction Facility in Capron, Oklahoma

BCE MACH LLC / BUTTERSCOTCH 15 28 14 1H STATION is an oil extraction facility located near Capron, Oklahoma, in Woods County. The facility is operational and situated in a region known for its oil and gas production, part of the broader Mid-Continent oil province. The facility operates under NAICS codes 211111 (Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas Extraction) and 211120 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction). In the United States, oil extraction facilities are regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the Clean Water Act (CWA), as well as state-level agencies like the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. Typical extraction methods in this area include horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing to access tight oil formations. The Butterscotch station contributes to the local and regional oil supply, supporting downstream refining and energy markets. Its location in a rural area of Oklahoma reflects the dispersed nature of oil extraction infrastructure in the state, which is a significant producer of crude oil in the U.S.

The facility is located in a semi-arid region of Oklahoma, where oil extraction activities can impact local water resources and air quality. Spills or leaks from extraction operations pose risks to soil and groundwater, particularly in areas with shallow aquifers. Regulatory oversight by the EPA and state authorities aims to mitigate these risks through permitting and monitoring requirements.
