NOBLE ENERGY - BATTERY #10112600 is a gas extraction facility located in the BERTHOUD AREA, Weld County, Colorado, United States. The facility is operational and serves as part of the regional gas infrastructure network in the Denver-Julesburg Basin, a major oil and gas producing region. 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 includes wellheads, separators, and gathering lines that transport raw gas to processing plants. The NAICS code 211130 indicates it is involved in natural gas extraction. This facility contributes to the local energy supply and economic activity in Weld County, one of the most productive oil and gas counties in the United States. Its location in a rural area near Berthoud reduces proximity to dense populations, but it is subject to Colorado's stringent state-level regulations on methane emissions and well integrity.

The facility is situated in the semi-arid climate of Colorado's Front Range, an area with significant oil and gas development. Proximity to agricultural lands and the South Platte River watershed requires careful management of potential groundwater contamination and air emissions. Colorado has implemented some of the strictest methane regulations in the US, including periodic leak detection and repair requirements.
