RBN Energy: EagleClaw Midstream's expansion into Permian crude gathering.
Acquire, expand, and acquire again. That’s proven to be a successful strategy for a number of midstream companies providing crude oil and natural gas gathering services in the Permian Basin. In the past couple of years, the hydrocarbons-packed shale play in West Texas and southeastern New Mexico has been experiencing major gathering-system buildouts and Pac-Man-like acquisitions that aggregate small and midsize systems into regional behemoths. A case in point is EagleClaw Midstream, which has used the acquire-and-expand approach to great effect, most recently with the concurrent acquisition of Caprock Midstream Holdings and Pinnacle Midstream — two deals that, by the way, gave previously gas-focused EagleClaw a strong foothold in Permian crude gathering. Today, we discuss EagleClaw and its holdings in the Permian’s Delaware Basin.

We’ve now posted a dozen blogs in our series on Permian crude gathering systems, and a key takeaway so far is that these systems — now with thousands of miles of pipeline among them — have been developed by folks with a strong entrepreneurial streak. In many cases, these companies with extensive midstream experience (and, often, private-equity backing) started out small, building or acquiring gas and/or crude gathering systems of only a few miles each. Then they expanded them, and soon thereafter, they either bought out nearby systems or got bought out by someone else. Today’s is another story like that.
