Job description

Job Description

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Summit Midstream Corporation (NYSE: SMC) is a value-driven corporation focused on developing, owning, and operating midstream energy infrastructure assets strategically located in unconventional resource basins, primarily shale formations, in the continental United States.

We currently operate natural gas, crude oil, and produced water gathering systems in four unconventional resource basins:

• the Williston Basin in North Dakota, which includes the Bakken and Three Forks shale formations;
• the Denver-Julesburg Basin, which includes the Niobrara and Codell shale formations in Colorado and Wyoming;
• the Fort Worth Basin in Texas, which includes the Barnett Shale formation; and
• the Piceance Basin in Colorado, which includes the liquids-rich Mesaverde formation as well as the emerging Mancos and Niobrara Shale formations.

Our systems and the basins they serve are as follows:

• the Polar & Divide system, which serves the Williston Basin;
• the DFW Midstream system, which serves the Fort Worth Basin;
• the Grand River system, which serves the Piceance Basin; and
• the Niobrara G&P system, which serves the DJ Basin.

SMC has an equity investment in and operates Double E Pipeline, LLC, a natural gas transmission infrastructure providing transportation services from receipt points in the Delaware Basin to delivery points around the Waha Hub in Texas.

We generate most of our revenue under long-term gathering agreements, often underpinned by areas of mutual interest (AMIs) and minimum volume commitments (MVCs), which provide revenue stability and limit commodity price exposure.

Since 2009, our management team has successfully executed this strategy through acquisitions and development of assets including DFW Midstream, Grand River, Polar & Divide, Niobrara G&P, and Double E Pipeline.
