ConocoPhillips has a long-standing commitment to proactive conservation across its global operations. By collaborating with strategic partners, the company works to enhance, restore, and responsibly manage habitats and ecosystems alongside oil and gas development.
In the Permian Basin, responsible resource management is central to the Company Owned Surface Land team’s approach. This commitment is especially evident at Quail Ranch — a dynamic collection of properties spanning nearly 200,000 acres in Texas and New Mexico. These properties serve as both a key site for energy development and a valued natural resource.
Conservation partnerships
As both an oil and gas operator and a surface owner, ConocoPhillips is uniquely positioned to deliver impactful conservation projects through partnerships with more than 15 organizations, including:
- Nonprofits
- Universities
- State and federal agencies
These collaborations leverage the specialized expertise of each partner to advance conservation programs at Quail Ranch. By building long-term relationships, hosting field days, and providing educational opportunities, the team fosters ongoing collaboration and shares insights that benefit other landowners and operators.
