About ONEOK, Inc.
About ONEOK, Inc.
ONEOK's four midstream segments—Natural Gas Gathering and Processing, Natural Gas Liquids, Natural Gas Pipelines, and Refined Products and Crude—connect through a roughly 60,000-mile pipeline network spanning the Williston, Permian, Mid-Continent, and Gulf Coast regions. Following the EnLink acquisition that closed January 31, 2025, for $4.0 billion in ONEOK shares, the company generated approximately 90% fee-based consolidated earnings in 2025, with 7.2 Bcf/d of natural gas processing capacity and NGL fractionation capacity of 1.2 MMBbl/d at 94% utilization.
ONEOK earns revenue across gathering, processing, and fractionation (primarily fee-based), regulated pipeline transportation tariffs, and optimization activities that capture location and seasonal price differentials. The Natural Gas Gathering and Processing segment—serving producers in the Rocky Mountain, Mid-Continent, and Permian Basin under fee-with-POP and fee-only contracts—sells NGLs primarily to the Natural Gas Liquids segment. The Natural Gas Pipelines segment derives the majority of capacity from long-term, firm fee-based subscriptions, limiting volumetric exposure compared with other segments. Three major capital projects underpin near-term capacity additions: the Bighorn natural gas processing plant in the Permian Basin ($365 million, 300 MMcf/d, targeted mid-2027), the Texas City liquified petroleum gas export terminal ($1.0 billion, 400 MBbl/d, expected early 2028) in joint venture with MPLX LP, and the Eiger Express Pipeline ($350 million, 3.7 Bcf/d capacity, expected mid-2028) with WhiteWater, MPLX LP, and Enbridge.
Show full overview
The Natural Gas Pipelines segment notes that the majority of capacity is subscribed under long-term, firm fee-based contracts, which insulates it from volume declines affecting the company's other segments. On the capital side, the Refined Products pipeline expansion from Scott City, Kansas, to Denver International Airport—a 230-mile, 16-inch diameter pipeline adding 35 MBbl/d of system capacity—is fully subscribed under long-term contracts and targets completion in mid-2026. Conversely, the 10-K warns that new pipeline construction exposes the company to right-of-way, permitting, and inflationary risk; potential tariffs on non-U.S.-produced construction materials could further increase project costs for these capital commitments.
