CenterPoint has also entered into a 15-year deal with Encana Oil & Gas to gather and treat its natural gas production from the Amoruso and Hilltop fields in Robertson and Leon counties.
In connection with the deal, CEFS acquired Encana’s 139-mile Amoruso natural gas gathering systems for $89m.
CenterPoint Energy field services business division senior vice president and chief commercial officer Bill May said the company has seen a significant increase in producer activity due to the improved economics of producing liquids-rich natural gas in the Cotton Valley field, as well as other nearby formations.
“Waskom provides a competitive outlet for natural gas liquids, including ethane, as well as several take-away options for natural gas including our CenterPoint Energy gas transmission pipeline and direct access to our Perryville Hub,” Bill added.
