A Strategic Project for East Texas Gas
The NG3-109 pipeline is designed as a regulated gathering system, with capacity to handle substantial new volumes from regional gas producers. Its route positions it to serve as a key connector between the prolific East Texas production zones and broader Gulf Coast demand hubs, including LNG export terminals. With the U.S. poised for a sharp increase in LNG feed gas demand beginning in 2025, projects like NG3-109 will play a pivotal role in ensuring reliable flows to global markets.

Momentum’s Track Record of Growth
Momentum Midstream is no stranger to building large-scale infrastructure. Since 2004, the company has deployed more than $3 billion in capital, developing or acquiring over 2,000 miles of pipeline, 12 processing facilities, three NGL fractionators, more than 1 million barrels of storage, and 260,000 horsepower of compression. This growth-oriented strategy has consistently delivered value for producers, employees, and investors while creating hundreds of jobs across the regions it serves.
Customer-Focused Execution
For Momentum, performance is about more than steel in the ground. The company has built its reputation by delivering projects on time, anticipating producer needs, and thinking outside the box to maximize value. With the NG3-109 permit secured, Momentum continues to demonstrate why it is viewed as one of the most reliable independent midstream operators in the U.S.
Looking Ahead
As the U.S. natural gas market evolves—driven by rising LNG exports, new power generation demand, and growing industrial use—infrastructure remains the linchpin of growth. Momentum’s newly permitted pipeline adds another chapter to its track record of foresight and execution, ensuring producers in East Texas have the reliable midstream services they need to compete in a global energy market.
