SandRidge Energy Inc Kimmell 2811 2 24H Creasey 2811 2 25H Oil Extraction Facility, Amorita, Oklahoma

The SandRidge Energy Inc facility, known as Kimmell 2811 2 24H Creasey 2811 2 25H, is an oil extraction site located near Amorita, Oklahoma, in Alfalfa County. It operates within the United States' mature oil and gas sector, contributing to domestic crude production. The facility is situated in a region with a long history of hydrocarbon development, supported by extensive pipeline networks and refining capacity. As an oil extraction facility, it utilizes standard drilling and production technologies common to onshore operations in the Mid-Continent region. The facility is classified under NAICS codes 211111 (Crude Petroleum Extraction) and 211120 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction), indicating it may produce both oil and associated natural gas liquids. Operations are subject to federal and state regulations, including EPA air quality standards and Oklahoma Corporation Commission rules for well integrity and waste management. The facility's location in rural Alfalfa County reflects the dispersed nature of oil extraction in the region. Its operational status contributes to local employment and tax revenue, while also being part of the broader supply chain feeding refineries in Oklahoma and neighboring states. Environmental considerations include groundwater protection and surface disturbance management typical of onshore oil extraction.

The facility operates in the Southern Great Plains, a region with semi-arid climate and agricultural land use. Oil extraction here involves risks of groundwater contamination from drilling fluids and produced water, as well as surface spills. The site is not near major water bodies, reducing coastal spill risk, but local aquifers require careful management. Regulatory oversight includes EPA's Underground Injection Control program for disposal wells and state-level spill response requirements.
