Pembina Gas Infrastructure Acquires 50% Stake in Whitecap Resources’ Kaybob Complex
Pembina Gas Infrastructure (PGI), a joint venture between Pembina Pipeline Corporation and KKR, has successfully acquired a 50% working interest in Whitecap Resources’ 15-07 Kaybob Complex, a natural gas processing facility located in Alberta, Canada. This transaction highlights the strategic alignment of both companies toward growth and innovation in the Canadian energy sector.
The acquisition, valued at approximately CA$420 million (US$291.6 million), includes a long-term take-or-pay agreement with Whitecap. This agreement ensures dedicated capacity utilization at the Kaybob Complex, providing stability and operational efficiency for both parties. Additionally, the partnership sets a framework for future infrastructure development, underscoring their commitment to meeting the region’s growing energy demands.
Financial Performance
In the third quarter of 2024, Whitecap reported a net income of CA$274.2 million, marking an 80% increase from the same period in 2023. The company’s revenue for the quarter was CA$972.3 million, up 12% year-over-year, with a profit margin improvement from 18% to 28%.
Operational Success
Whitecap’s production has consistently exceeded expectations. In the first quarter of 2024, the company achieved record production levels, averaging 169,660 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d), surpassing their forecast of approximately 163,500 boe/d.
Strategic Rationale for the Sale
The sale of the stake in the Kaybob Complex aligns with Whitecap’s strategic plan to optimize its asset portfolio and strengthen its financial position. Proceeds from the transaction will be used to reduce Whitecap’s net debt to below $1 billion, enhancing its financial flexibility for future growth initiatives.
The partnership with PGI not only secures operational stability but also provides funding for future infrastructure development in Whitecap’s Lator growth area. This ensures that Whitecap can expand its operations without relying solely on internal capital, facilitating sustained growth and innovation.
This collaboration underscores the commitment of both companies to strengthen their positions in the Canadian energy sector and capitalize on emerging opportunities in natural gas processing and infrastructure development.
