Colorado oil and gas data

Where this comes from

Well records come from Colorado Energy and Carbon Management Commission (ECMC) for wells, and CDPHE's Air Pollution Control Division for ONGAEIR emissions reports. Facility and emissions layers, where present, come from EPA programs including GHGRP, NEI and ECHO, and from PHMSA for pipeline incidents. Atlas normalises these into one schema and joins them on the well API number.

Regulatory data has limits worth knowing. It does not capture failure-mode emissions, it can carry operator reporting errors, and it lags current conditions. Every figure above is a count of what the agency published, not an independent measurement.

Analysis

• Colorado Well Permit Search: Where ECMC Keeps the Records Colorado calls two unrelated records a well permit. Which agency holds yours, why the oil and gas search covers only 12 months, and where older permits sit.
• Oil Field Map: Find Every Well in a Named Field, State by State Texas well records carry 55,791 field names, Colorado 1,556 and Wyoming 1,174. What a field name means, where outlines exist, and how to map its wells.
• Class II Injection Wells and the Other UIC Classes, Explained About 180,000 Class II oil and gas injection wells operate in the US, most for enhanced recovery, not disposal. The six UIC classes and where records live.
• COGCC Data, Now ECMC: Search Wells, Permits and Production COGCC is now ECMC, and the state portal shows one record per lookup. Search Colorado wells, permits and production data, tied to emissions and enforcement.

• Colorado Regulation 7: GHG Intensity Verification Factor How Colorado Reg 7 Section VIII scales ONGAEIR methane: CDPHE's factor rose from 1.164 (2025) to 2.2-2.7 by region (2026); targets run through 2030.
• How to Get a Colorado Operator-Specific Verification Factor How Colorado operators replace the state default verification factor with an operator-specific one under Reg 7 Part B Section VIII, and when it pays off.
• Colorado ONGAEIR Due June 30: A Practical Filing Checklist Colorado ONGAEIR report for CY2025 is due June 30, 2026. Which facilities must report, required source categories, and a pre-submission checklist for operators.
