Harvest Pipeline Co - Baton Rouge Gas Plant: Oil Extraction Facility in Port Allen, Louisiana

Harvest Pipeline Co - Baton Rouge Gas Plant is an operational oil extraction facility located at 1601 Safe Energy Dr, Port Allen, Louisiana, in West Baton Rouge County. The plant is part of the broader oil and gas sector in the United States, specifically focused on natural gas liquids extraction and processing. Its location along the Mississippi River corridor places it within a major industrial and energy hub. The facility operates under U.S. environmental regulations, including the Clean Air Act and EPA standards for oil and gas extraction. The NAICS codes 211112 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction) and 211120 (Crude Petroleum Extraction) indicate its dual role in extracting both natural gas liquids and crude oil. Typical operations involve separation, dehydration, and compression of natural gas to produce pipeline-quality gas and liquid byproducts. As a gas plant in the prolific Gulf Coast region, this facility contributes to the domestic energy supply chain. Its proximity to the Louisiana Offshore Oil Port (LOOP) and extensive pipeline networks enhances its strategic importance. The plant supports local employment and the regional economy while operating within a framework of federal and state environmental oversight.

The facility is situated in the Mississippi River Delta region, an ecologically sensitive area with wetlands and coastal habitats. Oil extraction operations here must manage risks of spills and emissions, particularly given the proximity to waterways. Regulatory compliance under the Clean Air Act and state-level environmental permits is essential to mitigate impacts on air quality and local ecosystems.
