Northwind on track to deliver 400 MMcf/d of capacity by 2026
HOUSTON--Northwind Midstream Partners LLC("Northwind" or the "Company") today announced that it has constructed and put into service 150 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of high-circulation amine treating capacity, two acid-gas disposal and carbon sequestration wells, over 200 miles of large-diameter pipelines, and 41,750 horsepower of compression across five compressor stations. Northwind’s system construction is underpinned by long-term commitments and greater than 165,000 dedicated acres from several of the basin’s leading public and private independent oil and gas producers.
Northwind is building one of the industry’s leading off-spec, NACE standard, natural gas infrastructure systems in Lea County, New Mexico, designed to manage produced natural gas with high levels of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. Northwind’s Phase 1 buildout, to be completed by mid-year 2025, is anchored by its Titan Treating Complex, where the Company recently added 100 MMcf/d of high-circulation amine treating capacity and an additional deep acid-gas injection and carbon sequestration well. The Titan Complex now operates total amine treating capacity of 150 MMcf/d and two acid gas injection wells. The completion of Phase 1 will increase total treating capacity to 200 MMcf/d, and Northwind has also reached FID and customer support to further expand total treating capacity to 400 MMcf/d by 2026.

In addition to commissioning a significant expansion of its Titan Complex, Northwind also recently expanded its low and high-pressure natural gas gathering and compression network throughout Lea County. Northwind’s natural gas pipeline system consists of over 200 miles of large-diameter, NACE standard natural gas pipelines, designed specifically to manage produced natural gas with high levels of hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide. Northwind also placed into service four additional NACE standard compressor stations with the ability to handle approximately 200 MMcf/d, expandable to up to 400 MMcf/d of aggregate capacity.
David Capobianco, CEO of Five Point Energy, said: "We believe that Lea County, New Mexico is one of the premier oil-producing regions in North America, and that reliable energy infrastructure is the key to unlocking its development potential. Sustainably managing off-spec hydrocarbon production through treating and sequestration has and will continue to be paramount for the industry."
Mr. Capobianco continued, "In short order, Northwind’s system has enabled its customers to unlock new development horizons and extend the boundary for known horizons, with demand for its offerings rapidly accelerating."
"Increased off-spec gas gathering, treating, and sequestration capacity is vital to the oil and gas industry’s continued success in Lea County," said Matt Spicer, CEO of Northwind. "The expanded Titan facility and associated pipelines and compression commissioned by Northwind provide our upstream producer partners a safe and economical solution for off-spec gas. Our facilities and infrastructure enable producers to effectively develop the prolific benches in the Northern Delaware Basin while also meaningfully reducing emissions."
Established in 2022, Northwind’s strategy is to develop, own, and operate off-spec gas infrastructure in the Permian Basin. Northwind operates a highly efficient, environmentally focused, and exceedingly reliable midstream system, which unlocks overall customer value while mitigating customer environmental concerns. Northwind’s developed solution provides producers with:
