Midstream Services

Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP represents multiple industry participants in connection with their midstream activities involving crude oil, natural gas, natural gas liquids, and water. The firm advises clients both on the commercial agreements involved in the midstream space and purchase and sale agreements for pipelines, gathering systems, processing facilities and other midstream assets and companies. We negotiate gathering, processing, transportation, fractionation, and purchase agreements for crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids as well as gathering, transportation, purchase, and disposal agreements for produced, fresh, and recycled water. We also assist companies in determining whether their facilities are subject to regulation under the Natural Gas Act, Interstate Commerce Act, and state public utility/public service statutes and regulations.

We have attorneys with experience in practicing before state public utility/public service commissions who can assist companies in connection with corridor certificates, tariff approvals, rate cases, pipeline safety, and other matters.  We can also assist companies in requesting temporary waivers under the Interstate Commerce Act and other FERC-related matters. We have experience with regard to pipeline rights-of-way, including BLM rights-of-way under the Mineral Leasing Act; environmental regulation of pipelines and other oil and gas facilities; due diligence in connection with the acquisition of midstream assets; and mediation, arbitration, and litigation involving contract, environmental, and other disputes in connection with midstream services or midstream assets.
