Operations

Current Operations

Cureton operations span Weld, Adams and Morgan counties in Colorado.
Cureton owns and operates approximately 260 miles of gas gathering pipelines with new projects continuously expanding its footprint.

Front Range Gas Plant

Cureton owns and operates more than 100 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) of natural gas processing capacity within Colorado’s D-J Basin. Cureton’s flagship processing facility, the Front Range Gas Plant (FRGP), commenced operations in December 2018 with more than 60 MMSCFD of cryogenic processing and stabilizer capacity of 5,000 BPD. FRGP has more than 3,000 horsepower (HP) of refrigeration compression, more than 7,500 HP of residue compression and uses an advanced cycle recycle split vapor (RSV) process to recover natural gas liquids (NGLs) to drive additional value to Cureton’s customers and independent gas producers. Cureton’s Gilcrest Gas Plant, acquired in 2022, has up to 43 MMSCFD of nominal gas processing capacity. Cureton’s processing facilities provide connections to major downstream delivery outlets for residue gas, including Colorado Interstate Gas and Public Service Co. of Colorado, and NGLs, including Conway and Mt. Belvieu.

Compression

Cureton operates more than 36,000 HP of compression at multiple facilities with TEG Dehydration providing more than 150 MMSCFD of throughput capacity. The stations serve to compress unprocessed natural gas gathered at low pressures for delivery to Cureton’s Gas Processing Plants.
