, provides us preferential access to significant underutilized pore space in and around the Delaware Basin that is necessary to meet the E&P industry’s evolving water handling needs. We manage our extensive infrastructure network through the use of our fit-for-purpose technology solutions, including our state-of-the-art centralized operations center and proprietary water forecasting platform, which enable us to monitor, measure and forecast water volumes in real-time across our infrastructure network and provide our customers with reliable and efficient water management solutions.

The transportation, treatment and handling of produced water is crucial to oil and natural gas production. Water naturally exists in subsurface geologic formations that contain oil and natural gas deposits and is produced alongside, and typically in higher volumes than, hydrocarbons throughout the full life cycle of oil and natural gas wells. Produced water must be reliably separated and handled in order for these wells to be brought online and remain in production. From 2014 to 2024, produced water in the Delaware Basin grew from approximately 1.6 million bpd to approximately 13.2 million bpd, a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of approximately 21%, outpacing the approximately 2.9 million bpd of oil production growth over the same period by approximately 8.8 million bpd. Due to the significant produced water volumes in the Delaware Basin in particular, our operations are critical to the ability of E&P companies to develop and produce oil and natural gas over the life cycle of a well.

Our customers include some of the most active and well-capitalized E&P companies in the areas in which we operate, including BPX Energy Inc. (“bpx energy”), Chevron Corporation, subsidiaries of Devon Energy Corporation (Devon Energy Corporation, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, “Devon”), EOG Resources, Inc. and Permian Resources Corporation. We serve our customers primarily under long-term, fixed-fee contracts that contain acreage dedications or minimum volume commitments (“MVCs”), with annual fee escalators tied to the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) or similar inflation index. Many of our long-term, fixed-fee contracts also include areas of mutual interest (“AMIs”) that grant us the right to provide water management solutions on any leases or oil and natural gas wells subsequently acquired or operated by a customer within a specified area. Our long-term contracts are generally structured similarly to crude oil gathering contracts, and in most cases, we receive water volumes from our customers at a central gathering facility at the same
