What is Gas Gathering?

Gas Gathering systems are the physical facilities that accumulate and transport natural gas from the well where the natural gas exits the wellhead, to an acceptance/injection point for a natural gas pipeline. 

Typically, gas gathering systems collect the "raw" natural gas from multiple wells and then deliver the natural gas to a gas processing plant that removes the natural gas liquids and any contaminants such as H2S, which then upgrades the raw natural gas to "pipeline quality gas" before selling/injecting the natural gas to a natural gas pipeline.

Master Limited Partnership (MLPs) are limited partnerships that are publicly traded on a securities exchange.

MLPs combine the tax benefits of Limited Partnerships with the liquidity and protection/oversight of a publicly traded security.

Master Limited Partnerships are limited by regulation to apply to specific businesses - most notably - natural resources, including; oil and natural gas extraction and transportation.

To qualify for MLP status, a partnership must generate at least 90 percent of its income from "qualifying" sources/resources. For many Master Limited Partnerships, this includes activities related to the production, processing or transportation of oil, natural gas and coal.

Master Limited Partnerships pay their investors through Quarterly Required Distributions or QRDs. The amount of the QRDs is stated in the contract between the Limited Partners (the investors) and the General Partner (the managers). Failure of the General Partner to pay the quarterly required distributions constitutes a default of the MLP Agreement.

Due to the stringent provisions on Master Limited Partnerships and the QRD, the majority of all Master Limited Partnerships are pipeline businesses, and natural gas companies engaged in the "midstream" oil and natural gas sector, which generated a reliable and steady income from the oil and natural gas sector.

Because MLPs are a partnership, there is no corporate income tax at either the state or federal level. The Limited Partners (investors) are able to record a pro-rated share of the investment in the Master Limited Partnership's depreciation on their personal income tax filings which further reduces their (that year's) tax liabilities. This is the primary benefit of Master Limited Partnerships and provides MLPs relatively inexpensive funding and capital costs. Simultaneously, this makes Master Limited Partnerships unattractive to "tax-deferred funds" that are unable to utilize this tax savings advantage. To encourage tax-deferred investors, MLPs set up new corporation holding companies for their Limited Partner's claims which can then issue equity.

In most new Master Limited Partnerships, the General Partner starts out with a small stake or position in the company - typically in the 2% to 5% range. However, the MLP receives "incentive distributions" from the net income after the Quarterly Required Distributions. As the incentive distributions are normally paid in the form of increased equity claims this allows the General Partner to attain an increasingly greater percentage of ownership in the company over time.

What are Midstream Assets?

Midstream Assets include those assets and services that link the supply side of the value chain within the industry, to the demand side for for these energy commodities.

The Midstream Assets and the Midstream Oil and Gas sector is the bridge between the energy producers and the energy end-users and - therefore, can only be as strong as the weakest link or bridge within the midstream oil and gas sector. 

Typical midstream assets include;  

• crude oil storage

• gas gathering

• natural gas gathering

• natural gas treating

• natural gas processing

• natural gas liquids 

• NGL fractionation 

• natural gas liquids (NGL)

• natural gas storage 

• natural gas transportation

• natural gas pipelines

• natural gas compression

• NGL recovery

• terminalling and storage

• oil gathering

• oil transportation

“spending hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars every year for oil, much of it from the Middle East, is just about the single stupidest thing that modern society could possibly do.  It’s very difficult to think of anything more idiotic than that.” 
~ R. James Woolsey, Jr., former Director of the CIA

Price of Addiction ### to Foreign Oil

According to R. James Woolsey, for Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, “The basic insight is to realize that global warming, the geopolitics of oil, and warfare in the Persian Gulf are not separate problems — they are aspects of a single problem, the West’s dependence on oil.”
