164,834 gross acres dedicated for crude oil gathering and transportation with a weighted-average remaining term of
approximately 5 years
2—year, 2,006 square-mile area dedication for crude oil gathered by truck
190,723 gross acres dedicated for natural gas gathering with a weighted-average remaining term of approximately 8
years
58,337 gross acres dedicated for water gathering and disposal services with a weighted-average remaining term of
approximately 2 years

of
growth
projects
in
various
stages
of
development;
