Crestwood Equity Partners wraps up $1.8bn acquisition of Oasis Midstream

Crestwood Equity Partners has wrapped up the previously announced $1.8 billion acquisition of Oasis Midstream, an operator in the Williston and Delaware Basins in the US.

Through the acquisition, Crestwood Equity Partners is said to have considerably boosted its scale and position in the onshore basins. This has enabled the Texan midstream operator to capture operational and commercial synergies of around $45 million, while driving improved financial strength and flexibility.

Besides, Crestwood Equity Partners is said to gain key crude oil, natural gas gathering and processing, and produced water gathering assets in the Williston Basin.

It will also get to double the inventory of tier 1 drilling locations dedicated to its assets to around 1,200 across 535,000 dedicated acres.
