The mission of the Oil and Gas Commission is to prevent waste and encourage conservation of the Arkansas oil, natural gas, and brine resources, to protect the correlative rights associated with those resources, and to respect the environment during the production, extraction, and transportation of those resources.

Our vision is to serve the citizens of Arkansas and the regulated community with an efficient, effective, scientific, and technical based regulatory framework to support economic development for Arkansas.

The Oil and Gas Commission has three office locations. The Director's Office is located in Little Rock. The South Arkansas Regional Office is located in El Dorado, and the North Arkansas Regional Office is located in Fort Smith.
