CITATION OIL - NORTH MAYFIELD 14-17 Gas Extraction Facility, Cheyenne Wells, Colorado

CITATION OIL - NORTH MAYFIELD 14-17 is a gas extraction facility located in Cheyenne Wells, Cheyenne County, Colorado, USA. The facility is operational and situated in a rural area of eastern Colorado, part of the Denver-Julesburg Basin known for oil and gas production. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the US 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 processing and separation of natural gas from crude oil, with typical capacities ranging from small to medium scale for the region. This facility contributes to the local energy supply chain, supporting natural gas delivery to downstream markets. Its location in a sparsely populated area reduces certain risk factors, though proximity to agricultural land and potential seismic activity in the region are considerations for environmental management.

The facility is situated in a semi-arid region of eastern Colorado, characterized by agricultural land and low population density. Proximity to populated areas is minimal, reducing exposure risks. However, the area is subject to occasional seismic activity and climate hazards such as drought and wildfires, which could impact infrastructure integrity. Operating pressure and vintage of equipment are typical for the region's gas extraction facilities.
