EVERGREEN NATURAL RESOURCES - TIBET 44-2 Gas Extraction Facility, Cokedale, Colorado

EVERGREEN NATURAL RESOURCES - TIBET 44-2 is a gas extraction facility located in Las Animas County, Colorado, approximately 11.5 miles west of Cokedale. The facility is operational and situated in a region known for natural gas production within the Raton Basin. 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 wellheads, gathering lines, and separation equipment typical of upstream operations in this region. The NAICS codes 211111 (Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas Extraction) and 211130 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction) indicate both raw gas and natural gas liquids extraction. This facility contributes to the regional natural gas supply, supporting local energy needs and downstream infrastructure. Its location in a rural area with low population density reduces certain risk factors, though seismic and climate hazards in Colorado may be relevant to operational safety.

The facility is situated in a semi-arid region of southern Colorado, characterized by grasslands and low population density. Proximity to populated areas is minimal, reducing public safety risks. However, the area is subject to potential seismic activity and climate hazards such as wildfires and drought, which could impact infrastructure integrity. Regulatory oversight under PHMSA and state regulations helps manage these environmental risks.
