BasinJoules
Lakewood, Colorado

We buy flared and stranded natural gas at the wellhead and turn it into processing power.

Gas going up a flare — pipeline full, or no pipeline at all — is gas we'll meter and pay for. We consume it right on the pad, with a generator and an equipment container, and host computing equipment on the power it makes.

For gas operators

For gas operators

If you're flaring gas in the Rocky Mountain region — Wyoming, Montana, or Colorado — because the gathering system is full or there's no connection, we're a buyer sized for wells the big flare-mitigation outfits turn away. Shut-in and marginal wells with real deliverability fit too. The gas is metered and papered properly, and the arrangement runs without requiring anything day-to-day from you.

Your flare becomes revenue. Gas that's burning for nothing gets a price, measured on a custody meter you can audit.
Your compliance picture improves. On-site beneficial use counts toward capture. In Wyoming, gas used this way on the pad is exempt from severance tax.
Your pad stays yours. We're a tenant with our own insurance and our own permits, behind a clean line at the meter.

What a site looks like

The company

Basin Joules LLC is a small, privately funded Colorado company building its first sites in the Rocky Mountain basins. We host computing equipment — our tenants own their machines; we run the power and the facility. Every well we approach is verified first against state production records and satellite flare data — we only pursue gas that's really flowing.

Email works best. If you operate a well that might fit, we'd like to hear about it.
