Oil and Gas Overview: Anderson County, Texas

Anderson County, Texas has relatively low production of oil and gas, but the industry still affects this County in various ways. Natural Gas storage is one example. Imagine a vast reservoir spanning 800 acres, about 8000 feet underground. Dozens of pipelines crisscrossing the land, only a few feet underground, acres of gas industrial facilities, etc…While natural gas is a crucial energy resource, it must be produced, transported, and stored in a reasonable way.
