Presidio Petroleum LLC / Mulligan 16 Pad Oil Extraction Facility, Arnett, Oklahoma

Presidio Petroleum LLC / Mulligan 16 Pad is an oil extraction facility located in Arnett, Ellis County, Oklahoma, United States. The facility is operational and engages in the extraction of crude oil, classified under NAICS codes 211111 (Crude Petroleum Extraction) and 211120 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction). It is situated in the Anadarko Basin, a prolific hydrocarbon-producing region. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. Oil extraction in this region typically involves conventional vertical or horizontal drilling, with production from formations such as the Mississippian Lime or Woodford Shale. The facility's scale is consistent with small to medium-sized pad operations common in the Mid-Continent area. As part of the U.S. oil infrastructure, this facility contributes to the domestic energy supply and local economic activity. Its location in a rural area minimizes direct population exposure, but operations are subject to state and federal environmental regulations, including spill prevention and air quality controls. The facility's role in the regional oil network supports downstream refining and distribution.

The facility is located in a semi-arid region of western Oklahoma, characterized by grasslands and agricultural land. Oil extraction activities in this area pose risks of soil and groundwater contamination from produced water and hydrocarbon spills. The site is not near major water bodies, reducing the risk of coastal spills, but local aquifers may be vulnerable. Regulatory oversight by the EPA and state agencies mandates spill prevention and remediation plans.
