Noble Tank Battery #415798775 - Gas Extraction Facility in Eaton, Colorado

Noble Tank Battery #415798775 is an operational gas extraction facility located in Eaton, Colorado, within the Denver-Julesburg Basin. This facility is part of the extensive natural gas infrastructure in Weld County, a key area for energy production in the United States. The plant's NAICS codes (211112 and 211130) indicate it engages in natural gas liquid extraction and natural gas extraction activities. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and DOT 49 CFR Part 192, which govern pipeline safety and gas transmission. In Colorado, additional state-level regulations from the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) apply. Typical gas extraction facilities in this region range from small wellhead batteries to larger centralized processing plants, with capacities varying widely. The Noble Tank Battery plays a role in gathering and processing natural gas from nearby wells, contributing to the local energy supply. Its location in a rural area near Eaton minimizes proximity to dense populations, though it operates in a region with active oil and gas development. The facility's operational status supports ongoing energy production in the Rocky Mountain region.

The facility is situated in a semi-arid region of Colorado, where water resources are a key environmental consideration. Gas extraction operations can impact local air quality through emissions of volatile organic compounds and methane, and may affect groundwater if not properly managed. The area is subject to occasional seismic activity, though risks are generally low. Proximity to agricultural land requires careful management of surface disturbances and potential contamination.
