MACK - SHAKESPEARE 20 FEDERAL NO1 Oil Extraction Facility, Artesia, New Mexico

MACK - SHAKESPEARE 20 FEDERAL NO1 is an oil extraction facility located in Eddy County, New Mexico, approximately 17 miles northeast of Artesia. The facility is operational and falls under the oil extraction sector, focusing on crude petroleum and natural gas extraction as indicated by its NAICS codes 211111 and 211120. The facility operates within the United States regulatory framework, which includes the EPA's Clean Air Act (CAA) Refinery MACT standards for emissions control and the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) 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 an oil extraction site in the Permian Basin region, this facility contributes to one of the most productive oil and gas areas in the United States. Its operational status and location in Eddy County place it within a dense network of extraction infrastructure supporting domestic energy production.

The facility is situated in the Permian Basin, a region with high oil and gas activity that poses risks of groundwater contamination and air emissions. Local environmental concerns include potential impacts on the Ogallala Aquifer and sensitive desert ecosystems. Regulatory oversight by the EPA and New Mexico Environment Agency aims to mitigate these risks through permitting and monitoring.
