NET has won firm transportation agreements with volume commitments from producers, including Talisman Energy, and Statoil Natural Gas.

EFM is a 150 mile long 30in intrastate natural gas pipeline that supplies gas for the Brasada Processing Plant in LaSalle County, which is operated by Western Gas Partners and transports gas from producers in the Eagle Ford Shale to the Agua Dulce Hub.

The pipeline earlier announced a 10-year firm transportation agreement with Anadarko Energy Services and a 100,000 acre production dedication from Murphy Exploration and Production to support the pipeline.

NET Midstream co-president Jerry Dearing said the company has signed agreements with Talisman and Statoil in the Eagle Ford Shale.

"EFM provides reliable transportation services and market liquidity to gas producers and processors at the Agua Dulce Hub. We look forward to expanding our gathering system in McMullen County," Dearing added.
