Overview

KERR-MCGEE 14101 34003843 is a gas extraction facility in Erie, Colorado, USA. It operates under US PHMSA pipeline safety regulations and DOT 49 CFR Part 192.

KERR-MCGEE 14101 34003843 is a gas extraction facility located in Erie, Weld County, Colorado, United States. The facility is operational and situated in a region with significant natural gas production activity. It operates within the regulatory framework of the US Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and complies with DOT 49 CFR Part 192 for pipeline safety. The facility's NAICS codes (211112 and 211130) indicate involvement in natural gas liquid extraction and natural gas extraction, respectively. In the context of Colorado's gas infrastructure, such facilities typically handle moderate to high volumes of gas, with capacities often ranging from 10 to 100 million standard cubic feet per day (MMscfd). The facility's location in Weld County places it in a region with extensive gas gathering and processing networks. Environmentally, the facility's proximity to populated areas like Erie (approximately 5 km away) and exposure to seismic activity in the Rocky Mountain region are relevant risk factors. The facility plays a role in supplying natural gas to local and regional markets, contributing to energy security and economic activity in the area.

Environmental context

The facility is located in a region with moderate seismic hazard due to proximity to the Rocky Mountain front. Its proximity to the town of Erie (approximately 5 km) increases potential exposure to populated areas. The area experiences semi-arid climate conditions, which can affect soil stability and water availability for operations. These factors are considered in the facility's risk profile.
