The oil and gas industry is treated with utter contempt in Sante Fe.
It’s so bad you can tell where my ranch crosses into Texas (one part of which spans NM towards Seminole TX).
How? The pump jacks are all idle on the NM side. It’s not worth the trouble.
There’s literally wells running down the TX/NM line. I’m the lessor on both sides.
I had family in Hobbs and Seminole..
