THE WEST PECOS GAS FIELD INCLUDES 188 WELLS ON 77,000 ACRES OF OIL & GAS LEASES IN NEW MEXICO

Gas and Helium Properties – Located in the West Pecos Slope Abo Gas Field in New Mexico

WEST PECOS GAS FIELD IN NEW MEXICO

The West Pecos Gas Field encompasses a vast infrastructure, including 188 wells, over 50 miles of gas collection lines, and 77,000 acres of oil and gas leases. With the potential for future expansion, an additional 70-100 wells could be developed. Our processing facility is capable of producing various grades of helium. The primary source of revenue for the company will come from the sales of helium, natural gas, and condensate. DME operates a vertically integrated business model, allowing us to sell directly to end users.

SURGING HELIUM PRICES

The 2018 US Government Crude Helium Auction crude helium auction prices increased from $119.31 to $279.95. This 135% increase year-to-year in the world helium market is due to dwindling reserves with the 2019 US crude helium auction anticipated to be the last one due to the dwindling reserves mandated by legislation.

DME’s Helium Processing Facility at West Pecos Gas Field

Over the past year the processing equipment for the facility was built off-site at the Generon manufacturing plant.
It was prefabricated and installed in custom modular housing containers and shipped to the site.
The site was prepared for installation at the West Pecos Gas Field in New Mexico.

DME’s Relocation of the Helium Processing Plant to the West Pecos Field

Desert Mountain Energy began to relocate its Helium Processing Plant from Arizona to New Mexico as of July 2023. Throughout this intricate relocation, skilled technicians fitted and welded all the external piping. Meanwhile, the company’s electricians diligently completed the electrical setup. The final large component, a 60,000-gallon accumulation tank, has been lifted into place. DME will then be able to process and provide natural gas, condensate, and helium directly to their valued customers.
