Diversified Production LLC / Genell 12-11-18 1H Station - Oil Extraction in Bessie, Oklahoma

Diversified Production LLC / Genell 12-11-18 1H Station is an operational oil extraction facility located in Bessie, Washita County, Oklahoma. The facility is situated in the Anadarko Basin, a prolific hydrocarbon province that has been central to U.S. oil and gas production for decades. As an oil extraction site, it contributes to the region's upstream petroleum infrastructure. The facility operates under U.S. regulatory frameworks, including EPA Clean Air Act regulations for oil and gas operations and state-level Oklahoma Corporation Commission rules. Typical oil extraction in this area involves horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing to access tight oil formations. The facility's NAICS codes (211111 and 211120) indicate crude petroleum and natural gas extraction, as well as oil and gas extraction support activities. This station is part of a network of wells that supply crude oil to midstream infrastructure, including pipelines and storage facilities. The environmental context includes potential impacts on local water resources and air quality, managed through state and federal permitting. The facility's location in a rural area with low population density reduces some community exposure risks.

The facility is located in a semi-arid region of western Oklahoma, where water availability is a key environmental concern for oil extraction operations. The use of hydraulic fracturing requires significant water resources, and produced water management is critical to prevent groundwater contamination. Air emissions from engines, flares, and fugitive sources are regulated under EPA's New Source Performance Standards for oil and gas. The area's geology includes the Anadarko Basin, which has a history of oil and gas development, with legacy infrastructure and potential for induced seismicity from wastewater injection.
