The first of these new plants is due to commence operations in the third quarter (Q3) of 2024, with the second following in Q3 2025. 

The integration of WTG’s assets is expected to generate additional revenue through gathering and processing activities, as well as downstream transportation and fractionation fees. 

Financially, the acquisition is projected to add around $0.04 of distributable cash flow per common unit in 2025 for Energy Transfer, with this figure potentially increasing to approximately $0.07 per common unit by 2027. 

Included in the acquisition is a 20% interest in the BANGL Pipeline, which spans approximately 683.97km and has an initial capacity of 125,000 barrels per day (bbl/d).  

This capacity can be expanded to more than 300,000bbl/d, connecting the Permian Basin to markets along the Texas Gulf Coast.
