ENOGEX Gas Gatherin/Cogar Compressor Station - Binger, Oklahoma Gas Pipeline Facility

ENOGEX Gas Gatherin/Cogar Compressor Station is a gas pipeline facility located in Binger, Caddo County, Oklahoma, United States. The facility is operational and plays a role in the natural gas gathering and compression network within the region. As part of the broader U.S. pipeline infrastructure, it contributes to the transport of natural gas from production areas to processing and distribution systems. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and the Department of Transportation (DOT) 49 CFR Part 192, which governs gas pipeline safety. This includes requirements for pipeline integrity management, corrosion control, and emergency response. The NAICS code 486210 indicates it is classified as a pipeline transportation of natural gas facility. Located in rural Oklahoma, the station is part of the extensive natural gas gathering network in the Anadarko Basin, a major natural gas-producing region. Its operation supports the local energy economy and contributes to the reliable supply of natural gas for residential, commercial, and industrial use. The facility's proximity to agricultural and rural areas underscores the importance of safety and environmental stewardship in pipeline operations.

The facility is situated in a rural area of Caddo County, Oklahoma, characterized by agricultural land and scattered communities. Natural gas pipelines in this region traverse diverse terrains, including farmland and waterways, requiring careful management of erosion and vegetation. The commodity transported is natural gas, which poses risks of leaks or ruptures that could affect soil and water quality. Regulatory oversight under PHMSA mandates leak detection and cathodic protection to mitigate corrosion-related risks.
