Operations
Innovating for the Future
We launched Utah Gas Corp. in 2013 with our initial investment in a small gas field supported by a single processing facility. Since then, we’ve expanded into a fully integrated energy company. We’ve spend over a decade demonstrating not only our ability to develop oil, gas and natural gas liquids but to build and operate a network of delivery pipelines, compressor stations, and processing facilities.
We’ve also created a separate, successful and growing fully-functional oil field services business unit to optimize our day-to-day operations to maximize resource recovery and control more of the value chain in oil and gas production.
UGC’s operations span primarily BLM federal lands, 98% of which are “held by production” with a Net Revenue Interest (NRI) above 83%.
With some 340,000 acres holding long-life proven reserves, a deep drilling inventory and an integrated gathering and processing infrastructure, we are well-positioned to responsibly develop our resources.
HELIUM
In addition to hydrocarbons, UGC is uniquely positioned to develop helium resources through BLM leases and our own infrastructure. Helium is a challenging resource to discover and develop both technically and economically, but the upside potential is very attractive as demand for this critical mineral continues to grow. Expanding processing capacity will be key to unlocking this valuable opportunity.
UGC Area of Influence
UGC Roosevelt Field
UGC operates roughly 600 wells on about 125,000 gross acres from this facility, More than 100 miles of gathering capacity connects to the Three Rivers Gathering Plant for delivery to Red Wash, WES’ Chipeta Processing Plant or MPLX’s Iron Horse Gas Plant. The company delivers gas via UGC Midstream to the Dragon Trails and Harley Dome plants as well. All UGC processed gas is delivered into the Mountain West/CIG/NWPL interstate pipelines.
Rangely Injection
This site features a Y-grade truck offload with injection capacity of 5,500 bbls/day into to the Enterprise’s Mid-American Pipeline.
Bonanza NGL Facility
When construction is completed, the Bonanza NGL facility will provide 3,000 bpd truck offload for NGL processing and condensate truck load out.
UGC Rangely Field
Over 400 miles of UGC gathering connects roughly 450 operated wells across some 180k gross acres.
Dragon Trail Gas Plant
There is cryogenic and depropanizer processing to handle up to of 40 mmcfd here. Residue gas is sold into the NWPL pipeline while propane and condensate are sold via truck. Other NGLs are sold into Enterprise’s MAPL line.
UGC Grand Junction Field
UGC operates 60 wells across approximately 30,000 gross acres; this field includes 15 miles of gathering.
Harley Dome Gas Plant
Harley Dome’s refrigeration processing capacity is 30 mmcfd. Residue gas is sold into NWPL, with NGLs sold via truck. UGC is pursuing another Harley Dome connection to the Enterprise MAPL.
Badger Wash Gas Plant
UGC’s Nitrogen Rejection Unit handles high inert gas with inlet amine processing; permitting is underway to also incorporate helium recovery. Badger Wash connects to NWPL for residue gas, and NGLs are sold via truck.
