Audio By Carbonatix

FORT WORTH, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb 18, 2026--

Brazos Midstream (“Brazos”) today announced that it has commissioned Sundance II, a 300 million cubic feet per day (“MMcf/d”) cryogenic natural gas processing facility and the largest cryogenic plant constructed by the Company to date. Together with Sundance I, a 200 MMcf/d facility that began operations in mid-2024, the Sundance processing complex provides critical processing capacity in the core of the Midland Basin and positions the Company for continued growth in the region.

Brazos also announced that it has initiated construction on a new processing complex located in Glasscock County, Texas, which initially includes Cassidy I, a 300 MMcf/d cryogenic natural gas processing facility. With completion expected by year-end 2026, Cassidy I will increase Brazos’ total natural gas processing capacity in the Midland Basin to 800 MMcf/d. In anticipation of additional processing demand driven by producer customers’ drilling programs, Brazos has secured grid power and other related infrastructure to execute on timely and capital efficient expansion opportunities at the Cassidy processing complex.

Brazos is also extending its gathering system with over 70 miles of high-pressure 20-in and 24-in natural gas gathering pipeline currently under construction, providing incremental capacity to constrained areas in Reagan, Glasscock, Midland, and Upton counties. Upon completion in mid-2026, Brazos’ Midland footprint will include approximately 525 miles of natural gas gathering pipelines and 16 compressor stations. The Midland business is underpinned by long-term acreage dedications covering more than 375,000 acres from top-tier Permian producer customers already in full-scale development.

CEO Perspective

“In less than 24 months, we have executed on our growth plans in the Midland Basin, the most active and resilient oil and gas producing region in the U.S.,” said Brad Iles, Brazos’ Chief Executive Officer. “As the largest privately held midstream operator in the Permian Basin, we are strategically positioned to support and grow alongside our producer customers and continue investing in midstream infrastructure that provides a more reliable and efficient path to market.”
