1. | NATURE OF BUSINESS | |
Waskom Gas Processing Company (the Partnership), a Texas General Partnership, was formed on November 1, 1995 to construct and operate the Waskom Processing Plant (the Plant). As of December 31, 2007 the partners are CenterPoint Energy Gas Processing Company (50%) and Prism Gas Systems I, L.P. (50%). Prism Gas Systems I, L.P. serves as operator. The Partnership is engaged in the processing and marketing of natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs), predominantly in Texas and northwest Louisiana. | ||
The Plant is a 250 MMcfd cryogenic turboexpander gas plant located in Harrison County, Texas. The Plant has full NGL fractionation, treating and stabilization capabilities. Fractionation is a process used to separate the mixture of NGLs into individual products for sale. Expansions to the processing plant were completed in March and June of 2007 increasing the capacity from 150 MMcfd to 250 MMcfd. In January 2007 the Waskom fractionator was expanded to a capacity of 12,500 barrels per day from 9,500 barrels per day. In addition, an increase in the processing capacity of the plant to 265 MMcfd is expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter 2008. | ||
The natural gas supply for the Plant is derived primarily from natural gas wells located in the Cotton Valley formation of East Texas and Northwest Louisiana. | ||
The primary suppliers of natural gas to the Plant include BP American Production Company, Centerpoint Energy Gas Transmission Company and Devon Energy Corporation, which collectively represent approximately 72% of the 229 MMcfd of natural gas supplied for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 61% of the 183 MMcfd of natural gas supplied for the year ended December 31, 2006. | ||
The Partnerships processing contracts are predominately percent-of-liquids (POL) contracts, in which the Partnership retains a portion of the NGLs recovered as a processing fee. The Partnership also operates under percent-of-proceeds (POP) contracts in which it retains a portion of both the residue gas and the NGLs as payment for services. There is currently one contract for processing on a keep-whole basis. The Partnership is not contractually required to process these keep-whole volumes and, therefore, only processes natural gas related to these contracts under profitable conditions. | ||
Sales of third party gas and fractionated NGLs are predominately to the partners and occur at the tailgate of the Plant. | ||

3. | RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS | |
During 2007 and 2006, the Partnership engaged in certain material transactions with the partners. The Partnership believes that the terms of these transactions were comparable to those that could have been negotiated with unrelated third parties. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Partnership had receivables of approximately $9.8 million and $11.2 million, respectively, and payables of approximately $2.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, due from and due to the partners. | ||
Per the Partnership agreement, cash contributions are made by the partners for capital expenditures and working capital. Contributions for capital expenditures totaled $17,733,619 and $19,980,733 for 2007 and 2006, respectively. Cash contributions for working capital totaled $2,494,939 in 2006. The partnership agreement allows for cash distributions to be made to the partners of any cash available in excess of working capital requirements, generally equal to two months of historical operating expenses. | ||
Such cash distributions totaled $4,128,057 in 2007. Other cash distributions totaled $5,250,000 and $300,000 for 2007 and 2006, respectively. | ||
The Partnership purchases gas from third party producers and processes this gas based on processing contracts, which are primarily percent-of-liquids (POL) contracts. The percentage of liquids retained by the Partnership is distributed to the partners as distributions of products-in-kind based on the partners equity interest. Distributions of products in-kind of $18,674,997 and $16,621,349 in 2007 and 2006, respectively, were made to the partners. Distributions of products in-kind are valued at prevailing market prices at the time of distribution. | ||
In some instances, the fractionated NGLs (less any retained portions) are returned to the third party producers, but in most cases, the third party producers enter into agreements with the partners to market their product. In such instances, the Partnership will sell the product to the partners. Such sales amounted to $53,365,845 and $43,678,571 in 2007 and 2006, respectively, and are included as natural gas liquid sales in the income statement. | ||
4. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | |
The Partnership is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly changing, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may require the Partnership to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum or chemical substances at various sites. Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that have no future economic benefits are expensed. Liabilities for expenditures of a noncapital nature are recorded when environmental assessment and/or remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Management believes that any future costs should not have a material adverse effect on the Partnerships liquidity or financial position. |
