Anadarko E&P Co. - Berge #10 12-1 Gas Extraction Facility, Cheyenne Wells, Colorado

Anadarko E&P Co. - Berge #10 12-1 is a gas extraction facility located in Cheyenne Wells, Cheyenne County, Colorado, United States. The facility is operational and situated in a rural area of the eastern plains, an important region for natural gas production in the Denver-Julesburg Basin. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the United States, including PHMSA pipeline safety regulations and DOT 49 CFR Part 192, which govern gas gathering and transmission. As a gas extraction site, it is part of the upstream segment of the natural gas supply chain, typically involving wellhead separation and initial processing before gas enters the pipeline network. The facility contributes to the regional gas supply, supporting local energy needs and the broader Colorado energy infrastructure. Its location in a sparsely populated area reduces some operational risks, though it remains subject to standard industry safety protocols and environmental monitoring.

The facility is located in a semi-arid region of eastern Colorado, characterized by agricultural land and low population density. Proximity to populated areas is minimal, reducing potential exposure risks. The area experiences occasional severe weather, including thunderstorms and tornadoes, which could pose operational hazards. Standard environmental management practices for gas extraction, such as leak detection and emission controls, are expected to be in place.
