This geospatial data includes oil and gas wells within the Colorado portion of the Raton Basin, as of January 2005. It includes a subset of over 60,000 existing and proposed oil and gas well locations within the State of Colorado. The well point data represent permitted locations, most of which have been drilled and completed, or drilled and abandoned. Some permitted locations were never drilled; these locations are also included in the shapefile. Selected well identification numbers and other header information are provided as attributes. The Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) is the official repository for Colorado's oil and gas information. Links to the COGCC website and to the shapefile (WELL_SHP), which were used to develop this geospatial data, are provided in the Cross-Reference section in these metadata.

Penrose Well Temperatures Geothermal waters have been encountered in several wells near Penrose in Fremont County, Colorado. Most of the wells were drilled for oil and gas exploration and, in a few cases, production. This ESRI point shapefile utilizes data from 95 wells in and around the Penrose area provided by the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) database at http://cogcc.state.co.us/ . Temperature data from the database were used to calculate a temperature gradient for each well. This information was then used to estimate temperatures at various depths. Projection: UTM Zone 13 NAD27 Extent: West -105.224871 East -105.027633 North 38.486269 South 38.259507 Originators: Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) Karen Christopherson

Well data were mined from Geothermal Prospector (GTP), Southern Methodist University (SMU), the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC), and the Colorado Geological Survey (CGS). The well data gathered was then used to assess sedimentary geothermal feasibility in the Denver Basin, the Piceance Basin, and the Raton Basin.

This dataset represents the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission's (COGCC) annual gas- and water-production data for oil and gas wells in the Raton Basin, Las Animas County, Colorado, during 1999-2004.

The Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) WELLS shapefile consists of over 98,000 oil and gas well locations within the State of Colorado. The well point data represent permitted locations, most of which have been drilled and completed, or drilled and abandoned. Some permitted locations were never drilled; these locations are also included in the shapefile. Well IDs and other header information are provided as attributes. The COGCC is the official repository for Colorado's oil and gas information.

Oil and Gas spills reported by the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission

Oil and Gas Floodplain – Colorado 100-year Effective as of January 28, 2016 as reported by the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission. Aggregate of FEMA DFIRM (digital vector only) 'Zone A' effective 100-year floodplain extents for Colorado. This data is provided as guidance only and the COGCC cannot guarantee that all floodplain data will be current and/or accurate. For many parts of Colorado, 100-year floodplain zones exist only in a raster map format - these are NOT INCLUDED in this vector shapefile download. Please consult the FEMA Flood Map Service Center and the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB) for more comprehensive listings.

Digitization of oil and gas well pad sites in the Piceance region of Western Colorado. Well pad sites were delineated using a modified version of the Rapid Land Cover Mapping protocol (Preston and Kim, 2016). The base imagery used to delineate boundaries is the 2015 National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery. Well coordinate locations facilitating the targeting of well pad sites were downloaded from the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) in February 2016.
