The Buffalo Run Pipeline is a strategic Targa Resources project that will connect Midland and Delaware Basin natural gas systems, improving gas flow, reliability, and takeaway capacity across the Permian Basin. As development progresses, the project may create opportunities for pipeline construction, automation, integrity, environmental, and other oilfield service providers supporting Targa’s growing midstream infrastructure network.
Targa Resources is advancing several major Permian Basin pipeline projects, including the Blackcomb and Traverse natural gas pipelines and the Speedway NGL Pipeline, to support growing production and relieve takeaway constraints. The company expects these projects to improve market access, increase NGL transportation capacity, and create significant opportunities for midstream construction, operations, and oilfield service providers through 2027.
Targa Delaware’s newly approved Rooster Compressor Station in Ward County reflects rising associated gas volumes and increasing system pressure needs in the Delaware Basin. With 125 wells drilled in 2025 led by operators like APA, Crescent, and Continental, midstream infrastructure expansion is keeping pace with sustained, gas-intensive development in the Permian’s western core.
n early January 2026, Targa Delaware LLC filed a Standard Permit air authorization for the YETI Gas Plant — formally kicking off regulatory approval for what will be one of the most important new gas processing facilities in the Permian Delaware Basin.
Targa Resources (NYSE: TRGP) has announced a major strategic step in the Permian Basin, agreeing to acquire Stakeholder Midstream for $1.25 billion in cash. The deal adds high-quality gathering, processing, and treating infrastructure in one of the most prolific natural gas growth regions in North America — and positions Targa to capture long-term, fee-based volumes with minimal capital requirements.
Targa Resources is making a bold move to strengthen its Permian Basin midstream network. The company announced a $1.6 billion investment to construct the Speedway NGL Pipeline, a 500-mile, 30-inch diameter system that will move up to 500,000 barrels per day of natural gas liquids (NGLs) from the Delaware and Midland basins to its fractionation and storage hub in Mont Belvieu, Texas. The project is expected online by Q3 2027.
Targa Resources Corp. (NYSE: TRGP) has announced a non-binding open season for its proposed Forza Pipeline Project, designed to expand natural gas transportation capacity in the Delaware Basin (Southeast New Mexico).
The Permian Basin remains the engine of U.S. energy growth — and Targa Resources is making sure its midstream network keeps pace. In its Q2 2025 earnings call, Targa painted a picture of an operator running flat-out: record gas volumes, multiple plant projects ahead of schedule, and an aggressive buildout of gathering and takeaway infrastructure.
In June 2025, Targa Midland LLC received Permit Amendment 09661 authorizing a major pipeline addition totaling over 82 miles across Borden, Dawson, Howard, and Martin counties. This expansion cements Targa’s strategy to optimize flow assurance from the wellhead to its Gulf Coast export network.
The New Mexico Environment Department (NMED) fined Targa Northern Delaware LLC $47.8 million and mandated $140 million in facility upgrades for excessive emissions at the Red Hills Gas Processing Plant, which released nearly 2 million pounds of pollutants beyond permitted levels.
