en.Wedoany.com Reported - According to a company statement, Matador Resources Company (MTDR) has signed a set of agreements with affiliates of Energy Transfer LP, covering natural gas supply and natural gas liquids (NGL) arrangements for its Delaware Basin operations. The natural gas supply agreement aims to improve pricing and reduce reliance on Waha Hub pricing in the second half of 2026, with the transaction designed to cover the transition period before Matador's transportation agreement on Energy Transfer's Hugh Brinson pipeline takes effect.

Matador previously disclosed on October 30, 2025, that it had secured firm transportation capacity on the Hugh Brinson pipeline, enabling daily delivery of 500,000 MMBtu of natural gas from the Permian Basin to markets that historically have priced higher than the Waha Hub. Additionally, the company separately signed NGL agreements with Energy Transfer affiliates, committing to supply and sell natural gas liquids from multiple sources in the Delaware Basin. Energy Transfer will utilize these natural gases to meet demand from artificial intelligence-driven data centers and the power generation market.

Matador Founder, Chairman, and CEO Joseph Wm. Foran stated that the company is pleased to have the opportunity to continue its partnership with Energy Transfer. He expects the transaction to potentially improve the actual realized price of Matador's natural gas production during the transition period. Matador's core operating areas are in the oil-rich and liquid-rich Wolfcamp and Bone Spring intervals of the Delaware Basin in southeastern New Mexico and West Texas, while it also conducts operations in the Haynesville Shale and Cotton Valley intervals in northwestern Louisiana.
