ArcLight Completes Acquisition of a 25% Interest in the Gulf Coast Express Pipeline

BOSTON, May 17, 2022

GCX is a premier, natural gas pipeline with 2.02 Bcf/d of capacity that is underpinned by a diverse array of shippers under long-term, committed contracts. GCX is operated by Kinder Morgan Inc. and provides critical residue gas takeaway service from the Permian Basin to key US Gulf Coast end-markets, including key emerging demand regions such as the growing liquefied natural gas ("LNG") export market in South Texas.

"ArcLight is pleased to acquire newly constructed, critical-path midstream infrastructure to assist continued energy transition efforts," said Lucius Taylor, Managing Director at ArcLight. "We strongly believe that, alongside our operating partners, GCX will continue to help supply growing global gas demand by bringing responsibly-sourced Permian Basin natural gas production to key demand markets as we transition to a clean and secure energy future."

Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc. acted as financial advisor and Latham & Watkins LLP acted as legal counsel to ArcLight on the transaction.
