Largest US natural-gas producer, pumping gas from Appalachian shale and moving it through its own pipelines.
Largest US natural-gas producer, pumping gas from Appalachian shale and moving it through its own pipelines.
Sells gas to utilities, power plants, LNG exporters and industry mostly at market-index prices, using hedges to smooth part of the output, while owning the pipelines that gather and carry it. The 2024 purchase of Equitrans Midstream, its former pipeline arm spun off in 2018, brought that infrastructure back in-house, and 2023 purchases of Tug Hill and XcL Midstream added acreage and gathering.
Moat: narrow (scale, cost advantage). Low-cost Appalachian acreage plus owned midstream pipelines lower costs versus non-integrated peers.
