Profile & Performance

They are a company founded by Anadarko Petroleum Corporation. They have lots of financial backing. The company provides six natural gas gathering systems, five natural gas treating facilities, and one interstate pipeline. They have a 20year contract. And are located in Texas, Utah, Wyoming, Kansas, and Oklahoma. Their earnings are up and should continue to do well. Especially since Natural gas and methane are going to become more prevalent in the future (my guess - and they have had shows on TV about using more natural gas). I think they will do well.
