Building the resilient midstream company

摘要

The development of North America's unconventional oil and gas resources spurred the rapid growth of the region's midstream sector. However, the subsequent growth in hydrocarbon supply, coupled with shifts in OPEC policy,1 cut short the phase that one midstream company once referred to as 'a once in a lifetime super-cycle.' As we enter the midstream sector's next phase of evolution, economic opportunities still exist, but they will be captured by those select participants that can establish a resilient growth strategy.
