Initial plans for the STACK system include more than 150 miles of gas gathering pipeline, several compressor stations and a cryogenic processing plant with the capacity to process 100 million cubic feet of natural gas per day.

Tall Oak plans to commission the system’s first processing plant, dubbed the Chisholm Plant, in the third quarter of 2015.

The Tall Oak STACK system serves producers targeting the STACK play’s pay zones, including the Upper and Lower Mississippian Meramec, Osage, Woodford Shale and Hunton formations.

"We feel very positive about the region’s future."

The system will also be capable of serving production from the Woodford and Springer shale plays and other portions of the South Central Oklahoma Oil Province, known as the SCOOP.

Tall Oak CEO Ryan Lewellyn said: "We are excited to see the impressive drilling results that Felix and PayRock are consistently delivering, and we are committed to quickly expanding our STACK system to serve producers’ growing needs across this play and the entire mid-continent.

"Strong results coupled with lower drilling costs make the mid-continent a very attractive place to operate, even in the current pricing environment.

"We feel very positive about the region’s future."

In the third quarter of 2015, Tall Oak’s total cryogenic processing capacity in the mid-continent is estimated to reach 175 million cubic feet of natural gas per day across two systems with a total of 400 miles of gathering pipeline.
