COGA Membership
For more than 150 years, our industry has been a vital and vibrant part of Colorado’s way of life. At COGA, our goal is to help ensure our industry thrives well into the future.

Founded in 1984, COGA’s mission is to be the unified political and regulatory voice for the oil and natural gas industry in Colorado, and to support our members through advocacy, partnerships, education, and stakeholder engagement. This means that every day COGA is proactively working to help create a more stable and predictable regulatory and political environment for our members. We do that through rigorous regulatory engagement at the state and local level. We’re also committed to being a positive, credible, and proactive voice for industry, promoting respectful public dialogue, outreach, and education, while pursuing an ambitious business plan to promote oil and gas interests across the state.
COGA is the state’s premier oil and gas trade association. We work to ensure our industry stays aligned and united. Your support will allow us to proactively engage in communities across the state, aggressively defend our legal rights to operate, maintain a high level of regulatory engagement, and be politically active in key areas of Colorado. I encourage you to review the included membership materials for additional details on COGA’s efforts and how you can benefit by becoming a member.
