Valiant Midstream, headquartered in Oklahoma City, has received a $150 million commitment from a Dallas-based energy private equity firm, Tailwater Capital. Valiant Midstream is focused on providing innovation, energy and results to midstream customers in the Mid-Continent and across North America.

Valiant aims to redefine a solutions oriented approach to the midstream industry, through providing a full suite of midstream services including gas gathering, processing, treating and compression, crude oil gathering, storage and transportation, condensate stabilization/splitting, produced water gathering and redelivery, and commodity marketing.

By leveraging its commercial, engineering and operational expertise, the veteran management team at Valiant is dedicated to protecting the investments of upstream partners by delivering scalable projects on time while setting a new standard for operational excellence. Valiant’s management has lived midstream from both the midstream and upstream perspective, offering the experience to anticipate challenges and the knowledge to solve them.

Collectively, the team has a proven track record, playing key roles in more than $4 billion in midstream projects and transactions. Valiant has extensive experience and success originating projects and acquisitions as well as managing, constructing and operating assets in the Mid-Continent, Permian Basin, Rockies, Bakken and Haynesville.

“We couldn’t be more excited to be building a company at home in Oklahoma,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Brandon Webster.

“While Valiant stands ready to pursue opportunities in all U.S. basins, we’re excited about the landscape in the Mid-Continent. The growth in the SCOOP and STACK have revitalized our state and we expect production to hit record levels. With more than 130 rigs deployed in the state, we know Oklahoma is primed for growth and Valiant is here to serve the producers who invest here,” added Webster.

“To be successful in the Mid-Continent, we believe that it is extremely important to have a team that has deep ties to the basin as well as long-standing relationships with existing producers and midstream operators in the area,” said Jason Downie, managing partner at Tailwater.

“Valiant brings tremendous familiarity and midstream expertise across the Mid-Continent to Tailwater, and we are thrilled to be partnering with a team that is well-respected in the Oklahoma community. This team represents the first commitment in our new midstream fund, Energy Fund III,” added Downie.

“When looking for a capital partner, Valiant sought long-term alignment, ability to expedite the evaluation of investment opportunities, and true expertise in the midstream space. Tailwater exceeded our expectations and was a clear choice to help us execute on our vision,” added Webster.
