Current report
The level of services we provide and the amount of hydrocarbons we purchase and sell continue to be driven by supply and demand fundamentals for hydrocarbon products. These dynamics affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Entering 2026, global liquid hydrocarbon markets have shifted into a modest surplus as non-Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“non-OPEC”) supply growth, together with the scheduled easing of OPEC and Russia (collectively, the “OPEC+” group) production cuts, have contributed to inventory builds and placed downward pressure on liquid hydrocarbon prices relative to levels seen during 2024 and 2025.
Current report
Against this backdrop, broader macroeconomic conditions remain a key determinant of hydrocarbon demand. Global economic growth, an important driver of demand, remains resilient but moderate. In its January 2026 World Economic Outlook, the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) projects global economic growth of 3.3% in 2026 and 3.2% in 2027 as headline inflation continues to ease. The IMF notes that the U.S. remains a key contributor to near-term global growth amid ongoing technology investment, while Europe and other advanced economies are expected to experience more measured recoveries. The IMF projects China’s economy to grow by 4.5% in 2026 as ongoing government-driven fiscal support, along with relative stabilization in trade conditions, help mitigate the effects of longer-term structural challenges. Despite signs of resilience, the IMF continues to highlight risks associated with geopolitics, trade policy and uncertainty regarding productivity gains from artificial intelligence.
Current report
In addition to macroeconomic factors, policy developments and security considerations remain important factors affecting global energy markets. Sanctions, political instability affecting certain crude oil‑exporting countries and security risks in key shipping corridors have contributed to ongoing uncertainty in global trade flows and may influence the availability, cost and routing of hydrocarbon supplies to global markets.
Current report
The OPEC+ group, which controls over 79% of the world’s proven crude oil reserves (as reported in the OPEC Annual Statistical Bulletin 2025), continues to have significant influence on global balances. In 2024, the OPEC+ group announced that its baseline and first layer of voluntary cuts totaling 3.66 MMBPD would be extended well into 2025, and certain members agreed to extend the second layer of voluntary cuts of 2.2 MMBPD until the end of March 2025. Beginning in April 2025, the OPEC+ group began unwinding the second layer of voluntary cuts at a faster than announced pace, completing a full restoration of the 2.2 MMBPD by the fall of 2025. On February 1, 2026, eight OPEC+ group member nations agreed to maintain their pause of the ongoing restoration of the baseline cut and the first layer of voluntary cuts. The group reiterated that these volumes could still return to the market either partially or in full, but would happen only in a gradual manner depending on evolving market conditions. These OPEC+ group decisions will affect near-term balances and crude oil prices, which may influence the incentives for non-OPEC production throughout the world.
Current report
While these global factors shape the broader market, U.S. supply trends continue to play an important role. U.S. producers achieved a new crude oil production record of 13.6 MMBPD in 2025, with the Permian Basin remaining the primary contributor to supply growth. The EIA projects that 2026 U.S. crude oil output will be roughly flat due to softer prices and slower drilling activity, followed by a modest decline in 2027. As of January 29, 2026, the price of West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil (as reported by New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”)) was $65.42 per barrel, largely in line with the 2025 calendar year average of $64.83 per barrel. The EIA expects WTI crude oil to average $53.42 per barrel in 2026, reflecting production growth outpacing consumption and inventory builds that are expected to persist into 2027.
Current report
The EIA expects Permian Basin crude oil production in 2026 and 2027 to remain largely unchanged from its record level of 6.6 MMBPD in 2025 as impacts from reduced rig counts are offset by increases in production efficiency out of maturing wells. Despite this forecast, we believe that natural gas and NGL production volumes will continue to grow due to rising gas-to-oil ratios (ratio of natural gas production to crude oil production) in the basin.
Current report
For natural gas, the EIA forecasts U.S. dry natural gas production to increase approximately 2% in 2026 to 110 Bcf/d, with additional growth of approximately 1% expected in 2027, driven primarily by Permian Basin and Haynesville growth supported by midstream additions. The price of natural gas, as measured by the NYMEX at Henry Hub, was $3.92 per MMBtu as of January 29, 2026, approximately 8% above the 2025 calendar year average of $3.62 per MMBtu. The EIA forecasts Henry Hub to average $4.31 per MMBtu in 2026, with prices expected to increase further in 2027 as LNG exports and power sector demand outpace supply growth. U.S. LNG remains the structural growth lever for gas demand, supported by incremental capacity additions including Plaquemines LNG, Corpus Christi Stage 3 and Golden Pass.
Current report
•Our Assets – Our employees find innovative ways to optimize our large, integrated and diversified asset base both to provide incremental services to customers and to respond to market opportunities. Additional production volumes could lead to higher demand for processing, transportation, fractionation and export terminaling services. Our storage services provide valuable flexibility for customers seeking to balance supply and demand while enabling us to capture potential contango and other marketing opportunities. U.S. energy and feedstock advantages position our assets well to compete effectively for incremental production and processing volumes. To the extent a rising operating cost environment impacts our results, there are typically offsetting benefits either inherent in our business or that result from other steps we proactively take to reduce the impact of inflation on our net operating results. These benefits include inflation-based revenue rate escalations, fuel and electricity rebills or surcharges, and increased volumetric throughput often achieved during periods of higher commodity prices.
Current report
•Our Quality Customers – We have contracted with a large number of high-quality customers in order to achieve revenue diversification. In 2025, our top 200 customers represented 96.7% of our consolidated revenues, and no single customer accounted for 10% or more of our consolidated revenues. Based on their year-end 2025 debt ratings, approximately 89% of revenues from these customers were attributable to companies that were investment grade rated or backed by letters of credit. Approximately 2% of the revenues from our top 200 customers were attributable to independent producers that are non-rated or sub-investment grade.
Current report
•Our Balance Sheet and Liquidity – We currently maintain investment grade credit ratings on EPO’s long-term senior unsecured debt of A-, A3 and A- by Standard and Poor’s, Moody’s and Fitch Ratings, respectively. Based on current market conditions, we believe that we have sufficient consolidated liquidity as of December 31, 2025, which was comprised of $4.2 billion of available borrowing capacity under EPO’s revolving credit facilities and $969 million of unrestricted cash on hand. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 98.3% of our debt portfolio is fixed-rate debt at a weighted-average cost of 4.7% and weighted-average maturity of 16.8 years.
Current report
•Our Access to Capital Markets – In 2025, EPO successfully issued $3.65 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes. Based on current market conditions, we believe we will have sufficient liquidity and access to debt capital markets to fund our operations, capital investments and the remaining principal amount of senior notes maturing over the next twelve months and beyond.

(4)The “Indicative Gas Processing Gross Spread” represents our generic estimate of the gross economic benefit from extracting NGLs from natural gas production based on certain pricing assumptions. Specifically, it is the amount by which the assumed economic value of a composite gallon of NGLs in Chambers County, Texas exceeds the value of the equivalent amount of energy in natural gas at Henry Hub, Louisiana. Our estimate of the indicative spread does not consider the operating costs incurred by a natural gas processing facility to extract the NGLs nor the transportation and fractionation costs to deliver the NGLs to market. In addition, the actual gas processing spread earned at each plant is further influenced by regional pricing and extraction dynamics.

Current report
(2)We capitalize interest costs incurred on funds used to construct property, plant and equipment while the asset is in its construction phase. Capitalized interest amounts become part of the historical cost of an asset and are charged to earnings (as a component of depreciation expense) on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset once the asset enters its intended service. When capitalized interest is recorded, it reduces interest expense from what it would be otherwise. Capitalized interest amounts fluctuate based on the timing of when projects are placed into service, our capital investment levels and the interest rates charged on borrowings.

Previous report
The level of services we provide and the amount of volumes we purchase and sell are affected by changes in supply and demand fundamentals for hydrocarbon products. These fundamentals impact our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. During 2024, hydrocarbon supply and demand were relatively balanced as crude oil production cuts maintained by members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and Russia (collectively, the “OPEC+” group) helped offset increased production levels in the United States, Canada and South America. Although crude oil prices were relatively stable and natural gas prices reflected some upward momentum in 2024, our Current Outlook acknowledges several factors that could affect the near-term balance in supply and demand.
Previous report
Global economic growth is arguably the most significant factor influencing overall hydrocarbon supply and demand. In its January 2025 World Economic Outlook, the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) projected global growth at 3.3% for both 2025 and 2026. Growth in the U.S. is expected to be 2.7% in 2025 as underlying consumer demand remains robust, reflecting strong wealth effects, less restrictive monetary policy and supportive financial conditions. In Europe, growth in 2025 is expected to accelerate but at a gradual pace of 1.0% with geopolitical tensions weighing on sentiment, weaker momentum in manufacturing due to higher energy costs and further political and policy uncertainty. China is expected to grow at 4.6% in 2025 as the fiscal stimulus package announced in November 2024 to address a slowdown in consumption largely offsets the adverse effects on investment from heightened trade policy uncertainty and the continued instability of the property market. The IMF expects global headline inflation to decline to 4.2% in 2025 and further to 3.5% in 2026 as the gradual cooling of labor markets is expected to keep consumer demand pressures in check.
Previous report
Geopolitical conflicts can also impact hydrocarbon supply and demand. Sanctions imposed on Russia following its February 2022 invasion of Ukraine have largely been circumvented over time through the use of alternative trade routes to willing buyers. This evasion has led the U.S. Treasury Department to increase pressure on Russian energy revenue by imposing sanctions in January 2025 on certain oil-carrying vessels, Russian-based oilfield services providers and Russian energy officials. Attacks on vessels transiting the Gulf of Aden by Houthi rebels in Yemen have disrupted shipping routes causing delays and increased shipping costs as major ship operators avoid the area and transit longer routes. In December 2024, the U.S. Treasury Department expanded sanctions on Iran’s petroleum and petrochemical sectors to limit Iran’s revenue from energy exports and disrupt its ability to fund programs that threaten peace in the Middle East. In North Africa, the ongoing political instability and conflicts in Libya have periodically disrupted its oil production, refining operations and exports. Further escalation of these situations has the potential to affect a significant portion of hydrocarbon supplies from Russia, the Middle East and North Africa to global markets.
Previous report
The OPEC+ group, which controls over 80% of the world’s proven crude oil reserves (as reported in the OPEC Annual Statistical Bulletin 2024), continues to have a significant impact on the global balance of supply and demand through its decisions to cut, maintain or increase production levels. During 2024, the OPEC+ group announced that its original cuts of 3.66 MMBPD would be extended well into 2025, and certain of its members agreed to extend the voluntary incremental production cuts of 2.2 MMBPD until the end of March 2025. Per the agreement, these voluntary cuts will gradually be phased out on a monthly basis from that point forward until the end of September 2026. Should there be discord among OPEC+ group member nations, including an unwillingness to abide by or extend the agreed-upon levels of crude oil production, global crude oil prices and production could be significantly affected.
Previous report
U.S. crude oil and natural gas producers have continued to increase production to record levels, particularly in the Permian Basin, thanks in part to innovations in both drilling and completion techniques. This growth has been dependent on the availability of both crude oil and natural gas export capacity due to limited growth in domestic consumption. As of January 28, 2025, the price of West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil (as reported by New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”)) was $73.77 per barrel, slightly below the 2024 calendar year average of $75.76 per barrel. The price of natural gas, as measured by the NYMEX at Henry Hub, was $3.47 per MMBtu as of January 28, 2025, which is 44% higher than the 2024 calendar year average of $2.41 per MMBtu. The phase-out of certain voluntary OPEC+ group cuts starting in April 2025 could put downward pressure on crude oil prices while any delays in the start-up of facilities that are expected to expand U.S. LNG export capacity in 2025 could put downward pressure on natural gas prices.

Previous wording
In its February 2025 STEO, the EIA provided expectations of continued growth in U.S. crude oil and liquid fuels production of 0.6 MMBPD to reach 23.3 MMBPD in 2025. Global production of petroleum and liquid fuels is expected to reach an average of 104.6 MMBPD in 2025, up from 102.8 MMBPD in 2024, driven mostly by growth in U.S. and other non-OPEC production. The EIA expects domestic dry natural gas production to grow about 1.5 Bcf/d in 2025 to reach 104.6 Bcf/d for the year. With respect to demand, the EIA forecasts that global liquids fuel consumption will increase from 102.8 MMBPD in 2024 to 104.1 MMBPD in 2025, driven primarily by growth from Southeast Asia and other non-Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) countries.
Current wording
Additional data from the EIA reinforces these trends. In its February 2026 STEO, the EIA projects U.S. liquid fuels production to reach 23.7 MMBPD in 2026, an increase of approximately 0.1 MMBPD from 2025. Global production of liquid fuels is expected to average 107.9 MMBPD in 2026, up from 106.3 MMBPD in 2025. The EIA also forecasts U.S. marketed natural gas production to increase by approximately 2.5 Bcf/d in 2026 to 120.8 Bcf/d, with LNG exports growing by 1.4 Bcf/d to reach 16.4 Bcf/d for the year. On the demand side, the EIA forecasts that global liquids fuel consumption will increase from 103.6 MMBPD in 2025 to 104.8 MMBPD in 2026, driven primarily by growth from Southeast Asia and other non-Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) countries.
Previous wording
We believe crude oil and natural gas fundamentals are constructive, particularly in the U.S., based on rising supply and sufficient export capacity necessary to satisfy rising global demand. The potential for additional sanctions on crude oil exports from Russia, Iran and Venezuela would likely further increase global demand for U.S. crude oil. We also expect an increase in global demand for electricity, including demand in the U.S. associated with new data centers, which should help support natural gas-fired generation demand over the medium to long-term. The global petrochemical industry will continue to be challenged in 2025 by oversupply largely due to increased growth in China’s petrochemical production capacity as it focuses on export manufacturing to compensate for its domestic economic challenges. This oversupply situation has led to the rationalization of petrochemical production capacity in Europe, Japan and other countries. However, U.S. petrochemical producers are expected to continue to benefit from locally produced, lower-cost feedstocks and energy relative to their global peer group. Longer term, growth in overall energy demand, stemming from a rise in global populations, improved living standards and technological advancements, will require continued growth in the level of hydrocarbons produced, in addition to growth in alternative forms of energy, including wind and solar generation where it can be produced cost-effectively without permanent subsidy.
Current wording
We believe the fundamentals for crude oil and natural gas remain constructive, particularly in the U.S. and more so in the Permian Basin, supported by growing supply and sufficient export capacity necessary to satisfy rising global demand. The potential for additional sanctions on crude oil exports from Russia and Iran could further strengthen global demand for U.S. crude supplies. We also expect continued growth in global electricity demand, including incremental U.S. demand associated with industrial reshoring and new data centers, which should support natural gas-fired power generation over the medium to long-term. The global petrochemical industry is expected to remain challenged in 2026 due to oversupply, driven largely by China’s continued expansion of its petrochemical production capacity as it focuses on export manufacturing amid domestic economic pressures. This oversupply has led to the rationalization of petrochemical production capacity in Europe, Japan and other regions. Even with ongoing industry headwinds, U.S. petrochemical producers are expected to maintain a competitive advantage given their access to locally produced, lower-cost feedstocks and energy relative to their global peer group. Over the longer term, growth in overall energy demand, stemming from a rise in global populations, improved living standards and technological advancements, will require continued growth in the level of hydrocarbons produced, in addition to growth in alternative forms of energy, including wind and solar generation, where it can be produced cost-effectively without permanent subsidy.

In order to accommodate this production growth in the Midland Basin, we also announced plans to expand our natural gas gathering and processing capabilities in the Midland Basin with the construction of a ninth natural gas processing train (“Athena”) and further expansion of our Midland Basin gathering system. This natural gas processing train, which will have the capacity to process approximately 300 MMcf/d of natural gas and extract up to 40 MBPD of NGLs, is expected to begin service in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Previous wording
Additionally, we placed into service our third natural gas processing train at Mentone in the Delaware Basin (“Mentone 3”) and our seventh Midland Basin natural gas processing train (“Leonidas”). Both Mentone 3 and Leonidas are capable of processing over 300 MMcf/d of natural gas and extracting more than 40 MBPD of NGLs. Supported by a combination of long-term producer dedications and minimum volume commitments, Mentone 3 and Leonidas will support Permian Basin producers as they meet growing demand in the U.S. and internationally.
Current wording
In July 2025, we placed our first natural gas processing train at our Mentone West location in the Delaware Basin (“Mentone West 1”) and our eighth Midland Basin natural gas processing train (“Orion”) into commercial service.

Inflation rates in the U.S. increased significantly in 2022 and remained elevated in 2024 compared to recent historical levels. While pandemic-era supply chain disruptions have largely dissipated and measures taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank helped slow the growth of inflation, the high-cost environment that began in 2022 generally remained intact in 2024. However, to the extent that a rising cost environment impacts our results, there are typically offsetting benefits either inherent in our business or that result from other steps we take proactively to reduce the impact of inflation on our net operating results. These benefits include: (1) provisions included in our long-term fee-based revenue contracts that offset cost increases in the form of rate escalations based on positive changes in the U.S. Consumer Price Index, Producer Price Index for Finished Goods or other factors; (2) provisions in other revenue contracts that enable us to pass through higher energy costs to customers in the form of gas, electricity and fuel rebills or surcharges; and (3) higher commodity prices, which generally enhance our results in the form of increased volumetric throughput and demand for our services. Additionally, we take measures to mitigate the impact of cost increases in certain commodities, including a portion of our electricity needs, using fixed-price, term purchase agreements, or financial derivatives. For these reasons, the increased cost environment, caused in part by inflation, has not had a material impact on our historical results of operations for the periods presented in this report. However, a significant or prolonged period of high inflation could adversely impact our results if costs were to increase at a rate greater than the increase in the revenues we receive.
Current wording
Inflation rates in the U.S., which are generally influenced by a variety of macroeconomic and policy-related factors, have moderated from prior levels, but remain a relevant consideration for the overall cost environment. In addition, there is uncertainty of what effect, if any, trade tariffs and other policy actions may have on inflation in future periods. However, to the extent that a rising cost environment impacts our results, there are typically offsetting benefits either inherent in our business or that result from other steps we take proactively to reduce the impact of inflation on our net operating results. These benefits include: (1) provisions included in our long-term fee-based revenue contracts that offset cost increases in the form of rate escalations based on positive changes in the U.S. Consumer Price Index, Producer Price Index for Finished Goods or other factors; (2) provisions in other revenue contracts that enable us to pass through higher energy costs to customers in the form of gas, electricity and fuel rebills or surcharges; and (3) higher commodity prices, which generally enhance our results in the form of increased volumetric throughput and demand for our services.
