Rapid Customer Growth in Texas Gas Utilities Driven by SiEnergy and Pines Acquisition
SiEnergy posted a customer backlog exceeding 217,000 future meters, including 12,000 meters from the Pines acquisition.
Combined SiEnergy and Pines served approximately 83,000 customers as of June 30, 2025.
The backlog growth and acquisition integration are progressing smoothly, with high growth potential making SiEnergy a significant future revenue contributor.
Impact of Infrastructure Challenges on Production and Mitigation Strategies
Natural gas processing issues in New Mexico caused well shut-ins and deferred oil production, but the impact on revenue was minimal as oil revenue is the primary driver.
Disruptions are timing issues rather than well performance problems, presenting opportunities for midstream and power projects aimed at improving flow assurance.
The company is advancing midstream and power generation projects, including compressor station expansions, to mitigate future infrastructure constraints and support stable production.
Accelerated Wind Repowering Schedule and Pipeline Expansion
Projects identified for repowering are progressing on schedule, with some projects potentially moving into service before 2028.
The repowering projects include Mount Storm, Goat Mountain, San Juan Mesa, and Tuolumne, with specific phases and expected CODs in 2026 and 2027.
The pipeline of repowerable wind projects has grown, with additional opportunities emerging later in the decade, reflecting strong customer demand and technical readiness.
Permian Volume Growth and Infrastructure Expansion
Targa reported record Permian volumes averaging 6.3 billion cubic feet per day in Q2, up 11% year-over-year, driven by new processing plants and infrastructure.
The company added a processing plant worth of gas in Q2 and another in July, with continued strength into August, indicating sustained volume growth.
Major infrastructure projects include the Pembrook 2 plant in Midland, expected to start in Q4 2025, and Bull Run 2 in Delaware, ahead of schedule, with operations beginning in Q4 2025.
An extension of the Bull Run pipeline in the Delaware Basin will add 43 miles of 42-inch pipeline, enhancing gas takeaway and connectivity, scheduled for service in Q1 2027.
