WEXPRO - JC DONNELL 10 Gas Extraction Facility, Moffat County, Colorado

WEXPRO - JC DONNELL 10 is a gas extraction facility situated in the remote area of Moffat County, Colorado, about 48.5 miles northwest of Craig. The facility is operational and classified under NAICS codes 211111 (Crude Petroleum and Natural Gas Extraction) and 211130 (Natural Gas Liquid Extraction), indicating its role in upstream gas production. As a gas extraction site in the United States, the facility operates under the regulatory framework of the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and DOT 49 CFR Part 192, which governs pipeline safety for natural gas. The facility's location in a sparsely populated region of northwestern Colorado aligns with typical gas extraction operations in the Rocky Mountain region, where natural gas reserves are abundant. The facility contributes to the regional gas supply network, supporting local energy needs and downstream infrastructure. Its operational status and location in an area with moderate seismic and climate hazards are considered in its risk profile, though specific technical metrics like capacity are not detailed in available data.

The facility is located in a semi-arid region of northwestern Colorado, characterized by sagebrush steppe and low population density. Proximity to populated areas is minimal, reducing direct exposure risks. However, the area is subject to seasonal wildfire hazards and occasional seismic activity, which are typical risk factors for gas extraction operations in the Rocky Mountain region.
