Western Midstream Partners, LP (NYSE: WES) (“WES” or the “Partnership”) today announced the closing of the previously announced acquisition of Meritage Midstream Services II, LLC (“Meritage”). The consideration was funded with cash on hand and WES’s recent $600 million investment grade senior notes issuance. The Meritage acquisition transforms WES’s existing asset footprint in the Powder River Basin with expanded gathering and processing facilities, a diversified customer base, and long-term contracts supported by minimum volume commitments and acreage dedications.

As previously announced, for the third quarter 2023, management intends to recommend a Base Distribution increase of $0.0125, or $0.05 annualized, resulting in a total annualized distribution of $2.30 per common unit.
