Delaware Basin
The Delaware Basin is a large underground rock formation located in parts of West Texas, southeastern New Mexico, and northern Mexico. It is rich in shale and other rocks that contain significant amounts of oil and natural gas. Over recent years, advances in drilling and extraction techniques have made it a major source of energy production. The basin’s geological structure allows these resources to be accessed efficiently, making it a key region for the U.S. energy industry. It’s a crucial component in meeting domestic energy needs while also impacting regional economies and environments.
