OGRIS OPERATING - HR 06-12V Gas Extraction Facility, Cokedale, Colorado

OGRIS OPERATING - HR 06-12V is a gas extraction facility situated in Las Animas County, Colorado, approximately 18.9 miles southwest of Cokedale. The facility is operational and falls under the jurisdiction of US federal pipeline safety regulations, including PHMSA and DOT 49 CFR Part 192. As a gas extraction site, it contributes to the region's natural gas supply chain. The facility operates within the regulatory framework of the US gas industry, which mandates strict safety standards for well construction, operation, and maintenance. Typical gas extraction operations in Colorado involve drilling and production from sedimentary basins, with wells often connected to gathering lines that feed into larger transmission systems. The NAICS codes 211111 (Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas Extraction) and 211130 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction) indicate the facility's involvement in both natural gas and natural gas liquids recovery. Environmentally, the facility is situated in a semi-arid region of southern Colorado, characterized by grasslands and low population density. The area's seismic and climate hazards are generally low, but proximity to populated areas and water resources requires careful management of emissions and potential leaks. The facility's role in the local gas infrastructure supports energy supply for nearby communities and industries.
