DENVER, June 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DCP Midstream, LP (NYSE: DCP) announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Permian Basin gathering and processing assets (“The James Lake System”) from Woodland Midstream II, a portfolio company of EIV Capital, in a transaction valued at $160 million, subject to certain customary adjustments.

This transaction is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2022, subject to customary regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to be funded using cash on hand and borrowings under DCP’s existing bank facilities.
