LOGOS OPERATING LLC - MCCRODEN COMPRESSOR STATION: Oil Extraction Facility in Lindrith, New Mexico

LOGOS OPERATING LLC - MCCRODEN COMPRESSOR STATION is an operational oil extraction facility situated in Rio Arriba County, New Mexico, approximately 15 miles northwest of Lindrith. The facility is part of the United States' extensive oil and gas infrastructure, focusing on the extraction and initial processing of crude oil. The facility operates under NAICS code 211120, which covers crude petroleum extraction. In the United States, such facilities are subject to federal and state regulations, including the Clean Air Act (CAA) Refinery MACT standards for emissions control and the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) guidelines for offshore operations, though this facility is onshore. State-level regulations from the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division also apply, governing drilling, production, and environmental protection. As a compressor station, this facility plays a critical role in maintaining pressure for oil and gas transport, ensuring efficient flow from wells to processing plants. Its location in the San Juan Basin, a major oil and gas producing region, underscores its significance in supporting domestic energy supply and local economic activity.

The facility is situated in the arid high desert of northwestern New Mexico, an area characterized by sparse vegetation and sensitive ecosystems. Oil extraction activities in this region can impact air quality through emissions of volatile organic compounds and methane, as well as water resources due to potential spills or groundwater contamination. The proximity to the San Juan River watershed adds concern for surface water protection. Regulatory oversight under the Clean Air Act and state-level rules aims to mitigate these risks through emission controls and spill prevention measures.
