Background

In August of 2018, Genesis Energy agreed to divest from its Powder River Basin Midstream properties, including the Powder River Basin Pipeline, for around $300 million USD, which will be used to pay down its credit revolver’s outstanding balance. Genesis is selling the assets to a subsidiary of Dallas-based Silver Creek Midstream, LLC.
