Mustang Gas Products LLC / Red Head Compressor Station - Bison, Oklahoma Oil Extraction Facility

Mustang Gas Products LLC / Red Head Compressor Station is an operational oil extraction facility located in Bison, Garfield County, Oklahoma. The facility is situated in the Anadarko Basin, a prolific oil and gas region, and plays a role in gathering and compressing natural gas from nearby wells for further processing. The facility operates under the regulatory oversight of the Oklahoma Corporation Commission and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). As a compressor station, it is subject to EPA's New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for oil and gas operations, including requirements for emissions controls and leak detection. The NAICS code 211120 indicates crude petroleum extraction, though the facility's primary function is gas compression. Compressor stations like this are critical infrastructure for maintaining pipeline pressure and ensuring efficient transport of natural gas to processing plants and end users. The facility's location in a rural area of Oklahoma reflects the widespread distribution of oil and gas infrastructure across the state's energy landscape.

The facility is located in a semi-arid region of central Oklahoma, where oil and gas operations are common. Compressor stations can emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and methane, contributing to local air quality concerns. The site is not near major water bodies, reducing spill risk, but groundwater protection is important due to potential leaks from equipment. Regulatory frameworks such as EPA's NSPS and state-level rules aim to minimize emissions and environmental impact.
