ENID, Okla. — A magnitude 5.0 earthquake rattled Oklahoma Sunday night and was felt in the neighboring states of Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas.

The U.S. Geological Survey reported the quake at 7:44 p.m. Sunday 2 miles west of Cushing, in Payne County, Oklahoma. It was about 17 miles east-southeast of Stillwater, Oklahoma.

A major trading hub for crude oil, Cushing is an oil depot known as the “Pipeline Crossroads of the World.”

Jeff Kuhn, Payne County emergency manager, said workers were evacuating Cimarron Towers, a Cushing apartment community. The Red Cross was headed there to help those displaced. Photos emerging on social media show damage to buildings in downtown Cushing. 

Initial reports put the quake at a 5.3, but USGS downgraded the quake to 5.0 approximately an hour later. 

The Oil and Gas Division of the Oklahoma Corporation Commission issued a release just before 9 p.m. saying currently there are no “immediate reports of any problems” at one of the world’s largest oil storage hubs outside Cushing but that “assessment of the infrastructure continues.”

Earlier in the weekend, two more Oklahoma earthquakes were recorded Saturday near Pawnee in Pawnee County and a third in Yale in Payne County. The earthquakes were recorded in the same area where a record-setting 5.8 magnitude earthquake occurred two months ago.

Geologists say a 3.7 magnitude earthquake was recorded shortly before 4:40 a.m. about eight miles east-southeast of Pawnee. A 2.9 magnitude temblor was recorded about 10:40 a.m. one mile east of Pawnee, and a 2.8 magnitude quake occurred shortly before 7 a.m. about nine miles west-northwest of Yale.

Scientists have linked Oklahoma’s increase in earthquakes to the underground disposal of wastewater from oil and gas production. Regulators have ordered some disposal well operators to close or reduce disposal volumes.

Oklahoma Corporation Commission’s Oil and Gas Division announced a plan to suspend the injection of wastewater at certain wells in response to the earthquake near Pawnee late Tuesday.
