ABOUT GO-TECH

Welcome To Gotech Website:

Our mission is to be a resource for historical oil and gas production data for New Mexico, and to provide this data in a quick, accurate, and easy-to-use manner. We have been helping producers and stakeholders access data for well over ten years now, and are always trying to improve our delivery.

Oil and gas production data on our web site has been provided primarily by the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division, and is updated on a monthly basis. Data for the New Mexico State Land Office Data Access pages is provided by the New Mexico State Land Office, and is updated weekly. Other information on our web site has been collected and compiled by the Industry Service Outreach Group here at the Petroleum Recovery Research Center and is updated on an as-needed basis. You can find more information about using our web site by clicking on the Instructions button on any page that has one, and you can find other resources and useful information in our Help section.

We hope you enjoy the site. If you have questions, do not hesitate to telephone us at (575) 835-5685. We also have a feedback form - for awhile this was not functioning correctly but is now back in order. We only check this mail account on a weekly basis at best, so if your problem is urgent, just call.

PRRC NEWS

Carb III

In October 2007, New Mexico Tech was awarded Phase III of the U.S. DOE’s Carbon Sequestration Project, which involves a large-volume test over 10 years for the storage of one million or more tons of CO2 in a deep saline reservoir. The Southwest Partnership on Carbon Sequestration (http://www.southwestcarbonpartnership.org/), headed by PRRC, is one of seven regional carbon sequestration partnerships managed by DOE’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL). These partnerships involve a variety of organizations in a nationwide network that will help determine the best approaches for capturing and permanently storing greenhouse gases. Phase II, currently in progress, comprises several smaller-scale sequestration projects around the SW Region. For both phases, PRRC serves as the administrative center as well as performing a variety of research activities.

RPSEA

The PRRC is helping to lead an important new initiative that is part of a larger effort to fund energy research in the US. The Small Producer Program of the Research Partnership to Secure Energy for America (RPSEA) will be responsible for developing and administering solicitations for R&D projects that target technology needs of small producers. The parent organization, RPSEA, (www.rpsea.org) is a consortium with more than 100 members that has established and coordinates a federally-funded research program focused on hydrocarbon recovery from US reservoirs. Currently seven Small Producer projects have been selected for funding, and new solicitations will be out in the coming months.
