MULL DRILLING - ROTHER A TANK BATTERY Gas Extraction Facility, Cheyenne Wells, Colorado

MULL DRILLING - ROTHER A TANK BATTERY is a gas extraction facility located in Cheyenne Wells, Cheyenne County, Colorado, United States. The facility is operational and serves as a tank battery for natural gas extraction, supporting the regional energy infrastructure in the Denver-Julesburg 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 pipeline safety and gas transmission. As a tank battery, it collects and stores natural gas from nearby wells before processing or transport. The NAICS codes 211112 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction) and 211130 (Natural Gas Extraction) indicate its role in upstream gas production. Located in a rural area of eastern Colorado, the facility contributes to the local economy and energy supply. Its operational status ensures continued gas extraction and processing, supporting downstream consumers and industries. The facility's location in a sparsely populated region reduces certain risk factors related to population density.

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. The area experiences moderate seismic activity and occasional severe weather, including tornadoes and blizzards, which could pose operational hazards. The facility's design and maintenance must account for these climate factors to ensure safe gas extraction and storage.
