CONOCOPHILLIPS - SAN JUAN 28-7 182N
Last updated May 11, 2026
Located in Rio Arriba County · New Mexico
Executive Summary
ConocoPhillips San Juan 28-7 182N is a single natural gas extraction wellsite (NAICS 211130) registered to EPA facility ID 110056291551, operating near Navajo Dam, New Mexico. EPA ECHO data current to 04-May-2026 shows zero formal violations recorded in the trailing 24 months, zero active EPA-tracked permits, and an EJ screening index average of 0.0 for the immediate facility polygon, alongside a derived 24-month penalty allocation of $3.76 million calculated as 24/60 of the facility's five-year penalty total [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. That arithmetic matters. The penalty derivation reflects historical enforcement weight against the ConocoPhillips enterprise rather than active current-period infractions at this specific wellsite, and the underlying five-year total therefore reads more clearly against parent-company consent decrees than against site-level quarterly non-compliance.
Parent ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP) posted Q1 2026 net income of $2.183 billion and EPS of $1.78 on revenue of $16.05 billion, while trimming full-year production guidance citing Middle East conflict exposure tied to Qatar operations [source: https://www.conocophillips.com/news-media/story/conocophillips-announces-first-quarter-2026-results-and-quarterly-dividend/] [source: https://simplywall.st/stocks/us/energy/nyse-cop/conocophillips/news/earnings-beat-and-lower-output-guidance-could-be-a-game-chan]. The San Juan Basin asset sits within the company's Rocky Mountain Business Unit, a portfolio segment previously subject to EPA Region 8 minor-source air permitting on the Southern Ute Reservation [source: https://www.epa.gov/archive/epapages/newsroom_archive/newsreleases/d19971f9fa2962be8525793c0065c7ef.html]. That regional permitting history provides the compliance backdrop against which the 28-7 182N wellsite's current clean record should be read. Peer benchmarking against three NAICS 211120/211130 operators shows the San Juan 28-7 182N site carrying the lowest derived penalty total and zero quarterly non-compliance flags among the group [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].
Penalty trajectory (recent 24 months)
What they say vs what EPA shows
ConocoPhillips' 2023 Sustainability Report structures disclosures around climate, nature, and social pillars, with dedicated sections on Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions reduction, biodiversity risk management, and water-related risk management [source: https://static.conocophillips.com/files/resources/conocophillips-2023-sustainability-report.pdf]. The company's Sustainability Reporting hub houses the 2024 Sustainability Report, 2023 Performance Metrics, and 2022 CDP disclosure [source: https://www.conocophillips.com/company-reports-resources/sustainability-report/]. The 2019 Sustainability Report frames sustainable-development governance and climate-related risk management under the board's oversight [source: https://static.conocophillips.com/files/callouts/conocophillips-2019-sustainability-report-4.pdf]. Taken together, these documents present a consistent corporate-scope emissions narrative spanning more than five years.
Measured against EPA records, the observable gap is narrow at the 28-7 182N site level. The sustainability report's emissions-reduction claims are corporate in scope; the ECHO record for this specific wellsite shows zero 24-month violations and zero active EPA-tracked permits [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The more meaningful divergence between data and narrative sits at the enterprise level. The ECHO-derived $3.76 million 24-month penalty pro-rata is a downstream echo of enterprise consent decrees — specifically the 2005/2008 ConocoPhillips Global Refinery CAA settlement [source: https://www.epa.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2ndamended-conocophillips-cd_0.pdf] and the 02-Nov-2011 Southern Ute CAA resolution [source: https://www.epa.gov/archive/epapages/newsroom_archive/newsreleases/d19971f9fa2962be8525793c0065c7ef.html]. Neither settlement is prominently framed in the 2023 report excerpt provided.
On permits, the Rocky Mountain Business Unit — San Juan Asset requested tribal minor NSR amendments on 30-Sep-2016 to add monthly AVO inspections at Ute Compressor Station condensate tanks [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2017-03/documents/conocophillips_utecs_smnsr_permit_smnsr-su-000054-2016_002_admin_record.pdf]. That practice aligns with the sustainability report's stated operational-integrity framing, though the granular wellsite inventory for 28-7 182N is not itemized in the public sustainability disclosures reviewed. Readers comparing narrative to data should note that ECHO's facility-level EJ index of 0.0 does not equate to zero community impact; it reflects demographic sparsity, not environmental loading.

Compliance Overview
The EPA ECHO exporter dataset, refreshed 04-May-2026, assigns the San Juan 28-7 182N wellsite (facility ID 110056291551) zero quarters of non-compliance across the trailing eight-quarter window and zero active federally tracked permits [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The $3.76 million penalty figure in ECHO's 24-month aggregation is a pro-rated derivation — the ECHO methodology multiplies a five-year penalty total by 24/60 — meaning the amount reflects historical settlements rather than fresh 2024–2026 adjudications. No top-pollutant codes are populated for the site in ECHO's current export. The EJ index average is recorded as 0.0, a value consistent with rural Four Corners geography where EJScreen demographic indices compute to low percentiles.
The 24-month narrative running from May 2024 through May 2026 contains no EPA-documented new enforcement orders specific to this facility. Step back to 2011, however, and the broader ConocoPhillips corporate enforcement record on tribal and federal lands in the Four Corners region comes into focus. On 02-Nov-2011, EPA announced Clean Air Act settlements with ConocoPhillips and Williams resolving alleged CAA violations on the Southern Ute Reservation in southwest Colorado, directly adjacent to the New Mexico San Juan Basin [source: https://www.epa.gov/archive/epapages/newsroom_archive/newsreleases/d19971f9fa2962be8525793c0065c7ef.html]. That settlement is the earliest anchor point for the enterprise enforcement weight that ECHO's five-year aggregation carries forward. Permitting correspondence dated 30-Sep-2016 from ConocoPhillips' Rocky Mountain Business Unit — San Juan Asset to EPA Region 8 then requested amendment of Synthetic Minor New Source Review permit SMNSR-SU-000054-2012.001 at the Ute Compressor Station, specifically to add monthly auditory-visual-olfactory tank inspections [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2017-03/documents/conocophillips_utecs_smnsr_permit_smnsr-su-000054-2016_002_admin_record.pdf]. That administrative record frames the regional compliance posture into which the 28-7 182N wellsite fits.
At the enterprise level, the 2008 Second Amendment to the ConocoPhillips Consent Decree (Civil Action H-05-258, S.D. Tex., Judge Sim Lake) governs refinery-side CAA obligations and predates the 24-month review window by more than 15 years. It is referenced here because ECHO's five-year penalty aggregations for ConocoPhillips-affiliated facilities typically inherit weight from such enterprise-level decrees [source: https://www.epa.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2ndamended-conocophillips-cd_0.pdf] [source: https://www.epa.gov/enforcement/consent-decree-conocophillips-global-refinery]. New Mexico Environment Department Ground Water Quality Bureau records from 31-Jan-2025 document active remediation oversight at the adjacent San Juan Generating Station — operated by PNM, not ConocoPhillips — confirming that the surrounding San Juan County groundwater regulatory environment is active, even though the 28-7 182N site itself carries no open NMED groundwater action in the provided bundle [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn]. No state-level violations for this wellsite surface in the 365-day news and SERP aggregation supplied.
Enforcement Actions
No discrete 2024–2026 enforcement actions are recorded against facility ID 110056291551 in the ECHO exporter snapshot dated 04-May-2026; the violation_count_24mo field reads zero [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The $3.76 million figure in the penalty_total_24mo field is a derived allocation — ECHO's documented methodology applies a 24/60 multiplier against the site's five-year penalty total, so the number reflects historical assessments rather than newly filed actions during the review window. That distinction is consequential for any reader treating the figure as a signal of recent regulatory activity.
Historical enforcement context relevant to the ConocoPhillips San Juan footprint includes two reference points. First, the 02-Nov-2011 EPA announcement of CAA settlements with Williams and ConocoPhillips resolving alleged Clean Air Act violations on the Southern Ute Reservation in southwest Colorado, adjacent to the New Mexico San Juan Basin [source: https://www.epa.gov/archive/epapages/newsroom_archive/newsreleases/d19971f9fa2962be8525793c0065c7ef.html]. Second, the ConocoPhillips Global Refinery Consent Decree, an enterprise-level CAA settlement administered by EPA's Office of Enforcement [source: https://www.epa.gov/enforcement/consent-decree-conocophillips-global-refinery]. The Second Amendment to that decree was filed 11-Aug-2008 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas (Case 4:05-cv-00258) before Judge Sim Lake, joining co-plaintiffs Illinois, Louisiana, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and the Northwest Clean Air Agency. None of those co-plaintiffs implicate New Mexico upstream operations [source: https://www.epa.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2ndamended-conocophillips-cd_0.pdf].
On the permitting side, EPA Region 8 records dated 30-Sep-2016 document ConocoPhillips Rocky Mountain Business Unit's Synthetic Minor NSR permit amendment for the Ute Compressor Station (permit SMNSR-SU-000054-2012.001), adding monthly AVO inspections to condensate tanks TK-5080 and TK-5081 [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2017-03/documents/conocophillips_utecs_smnsr_permit_smnsr-su-000054-2016_002_admin_record.pdf]. That correspondence is a permit modification, not an enforcement action — a distinction the administrative record makes clear. No CWA, CAA, or RCRA discrete violations for the 28-7 182N wellsite appear in the provided research bundle.

Per-Facility Breakdown
ConocoPhillips San Juan 28-7 182N (NM, facility ID 110056291551): the sole facility in this registry record. ECHO reports zero 24-month violations, zero active permits, and a 0.0 EJ index average, with a derived $3.76 million 24-month penalty allocation pro-rated from a five-year total [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The wellsite sits within the San Juan Basin natural gas fairway near Navajo Dam. The site's pollutant-code field is empty in the current ECHO export, indicating no active TRI or air-emissions inventory rows tied to this specific facility ID in the exporter's current aggregation.
Ute Compressor Station (Southern Ute Reservation, CO — affiliated Rocky Mountain Business Unit asset): subject to EPA Region 8 tribal minor NSR permit SMNSR-SU-000054-2012.001, amended 30-Sep-2016 to incorporate monthly AVO inspections on condensate storage tanks TK-5080 and TK-5081 [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2017-03/documents/conocophillips_utecs_smnsr_permit_smnsr-su-000054-2016_002_admin_record.pdf]. Included here as geographic context; not the subject facility.
San Juan Generating Station (Waterflow, NM, Section 17/20 T30N R15W, 36.800556, -108.438611): operated by Public Service Company of New Mexico, not ConocoPhillips, and under NMED Ground Water Quality Bureau remediation oversight effective 31-Jan-2025 [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn]. Referenced to establish that the surrounding San Juan County regulatory environment is active, even where ConocoPhillips itself carries no open NMED groundwater action at the 28-7 182N site.
Santa Fe Pacific Pipeline Spill site (Anthony, NM, Three Saints Road): listed under NMED GWQB public involvement, unrelated operator, included to illustrate the density of NMED remediation files in the state record [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/nZuvROZh].
ConocoPhillips Global Refinery enterprise (multi-state): governed by the 2005 consent decree and 2008 Second Amendment, covering refinery operations in IL, LA, NJ, PA, and Washington State — outside the New Mexico upstream scope but directly relevant to enterprise ECHO penalty aggregation [source: https://www.epa.gov/enforcement/consent-decree-conocophillips-global-refinery].
Pollutant Context
ECHO's current export records no top-pollutant codes for facility ID 110056291551 [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. That blank field does not mean the site emits nothing; it means no active TRI or air-emissions inventory rows are tied to this specific facility ID in the current aggregation. For NAICS 211130 natural gas extraction wellsites in the San Juan Basin, the typical emissions profile published in EPA Region 8 minor-source permitting documents centers on three categories, drawn here from the Ute Compressor Station administrative record [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2017-03/documents/conocophillips_utecs_smnsr_permit_smnsr-su-000054-2016_002_admin_record.pdf].
First: volatile organic compounds from condensate storage tanks. Tanks TK-5080 and TK-5081 at the Ute Compressor Station are the prototypical source units, which is precisely why EPA required monthly AVO — auditory, visual, olfactory — inspections as a work-practice standard in the 30-Sep-2016 permit amendment. VOC exposure pathways include fugitive vapor releases during flashing and working-and-breathing losses; chronic exposure is associated with respiratory and neurological endpoints in EPA IRIS assessments. Second: methane and associated natural gas constituents, which are climate forcers and proxy indicators for co-emitted hazardous air pollutants including benzene. Third: nitrogen oxides from compressor engines. NOx is an ozone precursor — a directly relevant pathway given the San Juan Basin's documented tropospheric ozone exceedances.
Environmental justice exposure at this site is recorded by ECHO as 0.0, reflecting the sparse-population rural setting near Navajo Dam [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. That number signals demographic sparsity, not the absence of environmental loading. The broader San Juan County regulatory context includes active NMED Ground Water Quality Bureau remediation oversight at adjacent industrial sites, including the January-2025 public involvement plan for the San Juan Generating Station [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn]. The Southern Ute Reservation to the north remains the nearest tribal community of environmental-justice interest, tied historically to the 2011 CAA settlement [source: https://www.epa.gov/archive/epapages/newsroom_archive/newsreleases/d19971f9fa2962be8525793c0065c7ef.html].

Within the NAICS 211120/211130 peer set, the San Juan 28-7 182N site shows the lowest derived 24-month penalty total ($3.76 million) and zero quarterly non-compliance flags. Greka Bell Compressor Plant carries a $26.16 million derived penalty total despite also recording zero violations — a gap that underscores how heavily enterprise-level historical settlements can inflate ECHO's pro-rated figures. Red Hills Gas Processing Plant and HP Gas Pad each logged eight non-compliance quarters alongside derived totals of $19.13 million and $16.13 million, respectively [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The ordering places the ConocoPhillips wellsite materially below peers on both the active-violation and penalty-aggregate axes.
Forward-Looking Risk Factors
No SEC 10-K or 10-Q Item 1A environmental risk-factor text was provided in the research bundle for this facility's operator — the site is flagged as private/CIK N/A in the registry entry — so direct SEC-filing quotation is not possible here. Forward-looking environmental risk commentary at the parent-company level does appear in Q1 2026 earnings communications. Management flagged geopolitical uncertainty in Qatar as a near-term production-guidance risk and lowered full-year output guidance on that basis [source: https://simplywall.st/stocks/us/energy/nyse-cop/conocophillips/news/earnings-beat-and-lower-output-guidance-could-be-a-game-chan] [source: https://finance.yahoo.com/sectors/energy/articles/conocophillips-earnings-slip-output-falls-012807939.html]. That guidance revision is a corporate-level signal, not a San Juan Basin-specific one. New Mexico-specific forward risk ties to active NMED Ground Water Quality Bureau remediation oversight in San Juan County, effective 31-Jan-2025 [source: https://service.web.env.nm.gov/urls/NURGpWdn], and to ongoing EPA Region 8 tribal minor NSR permitting obligations in the adjacent Four Corners fairway [source: https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/sites/static/files/2017-03/documents/conocophillips_utecs_smnsr_permit_smnsr-su-000054-2016_002_admin_record.pdf]. Both factors represent ambient regulatory pressure on the region rather than site-specific findings against the 28-7 182N wellsite.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the San Juan 28-7 182N site have any open EPA violations in the last 24 months?
No. ECHO's 04-May-2026 export records zero 24-month violations for facility ID 110056291551 [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].
Then where does the $3.76 million 24-month penalty figure come from?
It is a derived allocation. ECHO computes penalty_24mo as total_5yr × (24/60), so the amount pro-rates a historical five-year total rather than reflecting new 2024–2026 assessments [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].
What prior enforcement attaches to ConocoPhillips' San Juan–area operations?
EPA Region 8 and co-plaintiffs resolved alleged Clean Air Act violations with ConocoPhillips and Williams on the Southern Ute Reservation on 02-Nov-2011 [source: https://www.epa.gov/archive/epapages/newsroom_archive/newsreleases/d19971f9fa2962be8525793c0065c7ef.html]. At enterprise scale, the ConocoPhillips Global Refinery Consent Decree remains on file [source: https://www.epa.gov/enforcement/consent-decree-conocophillips-global-refinery].
How does this site compare to NAICS peers?
It carries the lowest derived 24-month penalty total and zero non-compliance quarters among the three listed peers — Greka Bell Compressor Plant ($26.16M, zero violations), Red Hills Gas Processing Plant ($19.13M, 8 non-compliance quarters), and HP Gas Pad ($16.13M, 8 non-compliance quarters) [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].
Where can the company's own sustainability claims be read?
The 2023 Sustainability Report is posted on ConocoPhillips' static file host [source: https://static.conocophillips.com/files/resources/conocophillips-2023-sustainability-report.pdf], and the company's Sustainability Reporting hub links the 2024 report and prior metrics [source: https://www.conocophillips.com/company-reports-resources/sustainability-report/].
