ANDEAVOR GATHERING I, LLC - ACE UNIT 10 is a natural gas extraction facility situated in Moffat County, Colorado, about 46.1 miles northwest of Craig. The facility is operational and classified under NAICS code 211130, which covers crude petroleum and natural gas extraction. Its location in the Rocky Mountain region places it within a significant natural gas producing area. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and DOT 49 CFR Part 192, which governs gas pipeline safety. As a gas extraction site, it likely involves wellhead operations, gathering lines, and initial processing. The region's geology, including the Niobrara and Mancos shale formations, supports natural gas production. This facility contributes to the local energy supply and economic activity in Moffat County. Its remote location, approximately 46 miles from Craig, reduces proximity to densely populated areas, but operations must still adhere to environmental and safety regulations. The facility plays a role in the broader natural gas infrastructure network serving the western United States.
Environmental context
The facility is situated in a semi-arid region of northwestern Colorado, characterized by sagebrush steppe and piñon-juniper woodlands. The area experiences cold winters and low precipitation, which can affect water availability for operations. Proximity to the Yampa River watershed may require careful management of runoff and produced water to protect local water quality. The remote location reduces exposure to populated areas, but seismic activity in the Rocky Mountain region is a consideration for infrastructure integrity.
