ANDEAVOR GATHERING I, LLC - BW MUSSER 11 Gas Extraction Facility, Moffat County, Colorado

ANDEAVOR GATHERING I, LLC - BW MUSSER 11 is a gas extraction facility situated in Moffat County, Colorado, approximately 45.7 miles northwest of Craig. The facility is currently operational and falls under the jurisdiction of US PHMSA pipeline safety regulations and DOT 49 CFR Part 192, which govern the safe operation of gas gathering and transmission infrastructure. As a gas extraction site, the facility is involved in the initial processing and gathering of natural gas from wells. The NAICS codes 211111 (Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas Extraction) and 211130 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction) indicate that the site handles both raw natural gas and natural gas liquids. The facility's scale is typical for the region, which is part of the broader Rocky Mountain gas-producing area. The facility's location in a rural area of Colorado reduces proximity risks to dense populations, but the region is subject to seismic activity and climate hazards such as wildfires and winter storms. The facility plays a role in supplying natural gas to the local grid and downstream markets, contributing to energy security in the region.

The facility is situated in a semi-arid region of northwestern Colorado, characterized by sagebrush steppe and pinyon-juniper woodlands. The area supports wildlife such as mule deer and sage grouse. Proximity to populated areas is low, but the facility must manage risks from seismic activity and extreme weather events like wildfires and blizzards. Regulatory oversight under PHMSA ensures adherence to safety standards for gas extraction and gathering.
