Where We Work

US Infrastructure is pursuing greenfield and acquisition opportunities in emerging resource plays across the United States. USI is led by a senior management team with a unparalleled midstream infrastructure experience and the ability to offer producers rapid, cost-effective and flexible midstream solutions.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Analysis of the emerging natural gas plays in North America points to an aggregate discovered resource base of some 2,000 trillion cubic feet (tcf) and a total, including what is expected to be found in the future, of more than 3,000 tcf. The development of these unconventional gas reserves is changing the North American energy industry, driving the need for new midstream assets and creating significant growth opportunities for the midstream sector. Shale gas alone is expected to grow to more than 50% of the nation’s energy supply portfolio by 2030.

Driven by an acute demand for gathering, processing, fractionation, storage and take-away infrastructure in these emerging shale plays, opportunities in the midstream sector are expanding at a robust rate as the nation reaches for recovery and moves away from its dependence on foreign sources of energy supply. For every $1.00 spent by oil and gas producers on the upstream side, we believe that an expenditure of at least $0.15 to $0.35 will be necessary to provide the midstream infrastructure producers require to deliver product from the wellhead to market.
