CARLSBAD, NM, March 28, 2013 (Press-News.org) Eddy County, New Mexico will soon be home to Rangeland Energy. The company, out of Sugar Land, Texas, has executed contracts to purchase up to 770 acres near Loving, New Mexico, and will begin development of a large terminal facility capable of handling crude oil, frac sand, pipe and other products. Rangeland expects the terminal to be in service before the end of the year. Rangeland will also build a pipeline system in southern Eddy County to maximize terminal connectivity to existing and planned pipelines for both the receipt and delivery of crude oil.

Rangeland developed a similar system in North Dakota known as COLT, and the company expects to invest more than $150 million in the New Mexico terminal and supporting infrastructure.

"Carlsbad's industry base continues to grow," said John Waters, executive director for the Carlsbad Department of Development (CDOD). "We are very pleased to see a company like Rangeland Energy coming into our market, and are looking forward to big things."

Founded in 2009, Rangeland is a midstream energy company led by an experienced management team and backed by private equity commitments from EnCap Flatrock Midstream of San Antonio. Rangeland's New Mexico terminal will be a full-service facility for crude oil producers and buyers in the Delaware Basin. Rangeland will receive and stage frac sand and pipe for the production of crude oil, while receiving, storing, and distributing crude oil to multiple downstream markets via pipeline and rail.

Carlsbad's diverse economy continues to strengthen, with oil production leading the state and a growing manufacturing base. Businesses in the oil and gas, potash, manufacturing, medical and nuclear industries continue to establish in the market, making Carlsbad and Eddy County a bright spot in southeast New Mexico.

"We are excited to begin development of the company's next terminal and play a role in the rapid production growth taking place in southeast New Mexico and West Texas. Our objective is to draw on our successful track record in North Dakota to provide a one-stop facility that can service drilling activity and market crude oil produced in New Mexico and West Texas," said Chris Keene, Rangeland's president and CEO.

Members represent over 100 chief executive officers in industry, business and finance, the City of Carlsbad, Eddy County Board of Commissioners, New Mexico State University-Carlsbad, and other organizations.

The New Medical Negligence Apology and Notice Laws: A Bold New Frontier for Newborn Safety

2013-03-28
Introduction. When a child is born with severe birth injuries such as kernicterus (brain damage) due to extreme jaundice, parents often do not realize that anything is wrong with their baby until days, months, or sometimes years later. That is because jaundice in a newborn baby is too often considered a harmless condition by health care providers. Parents walk out of the hospital smiling broadly, with a yellow newborn in their arms, believing that she is perfectly healthy with a nice tan. They frequently are told by nurses just to stick the baby in the sun for a while. ...

2013-03-28
Decades ago, cheerleaders led crowds at sporting events with pom-poms, clapping and toe kicks. Those days are gone.

In fact, cheerleading accounts for more than 65 percent of all catastrophic injuries suffered by female high school athletes during the past 25 years. The catastrophic injuries from the sport may cause permanent brain injuries, paralysis ...

Older Motorcyclists May Suffer More Severe Injuries In Accidents

2013-03-28
The idea that Americans are settling into rocking chairs as they age is now a myth, if it was ever true. Both younger and older baby boomers -- those born between 1946 and 1964 -- are turning to new hobbies or reconnecting with activities they enjoyed in their younger years. Among the new activities: motorcycles. Between 1998 and 2003, the mean age of motorcycle owners rose from 33 to 43, according to an industry trade association. About a quarter of motorcycle riders in the U.S. are 50 or older. This newfound or rediscovered joy of the open road could come with consequences ...
