Dear Crestwood Employees,

 

Today, we are pleased to announce that Crestwood will acquire Oasis Midstream Partners, a premier gathering and processing company, in a $1.8 billion transaction. By integrating these two companies, it allows Crestwood to significantly increase our scale and competitive positioning in our core growth basins while capturing meaningful commercial and operational synergies. Due to our highly complementary asset footprints, this deal allows us to create a firm leadership position both in the Bakken and Delaware basins, and in fact, propels Crestwood into a top-3 Bakken focused G&P company! Additionally, this will significantly strengthen our financial position by increasing our annual Adjusted EBITDA and positive free cash flow generated by over 40 percent in 2022.

 

This exciting transaction marks a significant milestone in Crestwood’s history as it accelerates us along the strategic path we have been pursuing for many years, which has been to continue to build out the company to be a best-in-class MLP midstream infrastructure company. One that continues to meet the needs of our customers and key stakeholders, while creating value for our investors.

The ability to complete this transaction is a direct result of your commitment to strong execution and building financial strength. I remain grateful for your dedication to Crestwood and all you do to ensure we continue to be an industry leading MLP midstream operator.

We look forward to updating you more on this transaction and answering any questions you may have at the employee townhall meeting later today.

Sincerely,
