American Midstream Partners chairman, president and CEO Lynn Bourdon said: "Our combined interests in the Destin and High Point gathering and transmission systems cover more than 10,000 square miles of active production in the Gulf.
"In addition, the onshore segment of Destin extends our gas transmission footprint into an active region serving the southeast marketplace.
"The additional pipeline interests increase our size and scale through incremental fee-based cash flows supported primarily by take-or-pay contracts and life-of-lease dedications."
