TIGNER STATE CTB Oil Extraction Facility, Artesia, New Mexico

TIGNER STATE CTB is an operational oil extraction facility situated near Artesia in Eddy County, New Mexico, United States. The facility is part of the broader Permian Basin, one of the most prolific oil-producing regions in the country. Its location in southeastern New Mexico places it within a dense network of oil infrastructure supporting domestic energy production. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), including the Clean Air Act (CAA) and applicable state-level regulations from the New Mexico Environment Department. Oil extraction in this region typically involves conventional drilling and enhanced recovery techniques. The primary technical metric for such facilities is production capacity in barrels per day, though specific capacity data for this site is not disclosed. As part of the Permian Basin's extensive oil infrastructure, TIGNER STATE CTB contributes to the regional supply chain, supporting downstream refining and distribution. The facility's operational status underscores its role in maintaining energy output in a region known for high-volume extraction. Environmental considerations include air emissions management and water usage, governed by state and federal permits.

The facility is located in the arid landscape of southeastern New Mexico, where oil extraction activities can impact local air quality and water resources. The region's oil infrastructure is subject to EPA regulations under the Clean Air Act, including emission controls for volatile organic compounds. Water management is critical due to the semi-arid climate, with produced water often reinjected or treated. The proximity to the Permian Basin also raises considerations for land use and habitat disturbance.
