Oil spill incidents in New Mexico have seen a decrease, surprising many, as production levels have shown an upward trend.
In the ever-evolving world of business and economy, staying informed is crucial. That's where the Albuquerque Journal's Business Outlook Newsletter comes in, offering more than just headlines to its subscribers.
Delivered every Monday, the Business Outlook Newsletter is designed specifically for paid subscribers, providing narrative coverage of local trends, industry news, and key economic updates. The newsletter is not related to the Center for Western Priorities or their Mountain West spills report, and it is not offered as a daily email newsletter.
Meanwhile, the Center for Western Priorities, an organisation that releases reports on oil and gas spills in the Mountain West, recently published its annual Mountain West spills report. This report analysed oil and gas-related spills in 2024 across key Western states, including New Mexico, Wyoming, and Colorado.
According to the report, over 2,700 oil and gas spills occurred in these top oil-producing states within the Mountain West region during 2024. While the exact detailed spill data broken down by state, volume, or type is not fully enumerated in the available summary, the report highlights the ongoing environmental risks associated with fossil fuel extraction on public and private lands.
Industry spills in New Mexico were down compared to previous years, but more than 7 million gallons of drilling-related liquids were spilled cumulatively in New Mexico, Wyoming, and Colorado in 2024. The report underscores the need for improved regulation and oversight, as well as balancing energy development with conservation goals in the Mountain West region.
