Growing Operations in Texas, Oklahoma, and Appalachia

Superior Pipeline Company (Superior) provides midstream services exceeding 384 MMcf/d of throughput and over 578,000 gallons/day of natural gas liquids (NGL). Its growing operations are located in Texas, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania, placing an increasing burden on accounting staff to track large volumes of natural gas and NGL through its processing facilities.

The midstream service provider manages 20 assets related to its gas processing operation. Accounting staff wanted to replace manual workflows for recording volumes and gas analysis in multiple spreadsheets with a solution that automates the process and simplifies reporting.

Superior had attracted a large number of producer contracts. It wanted to efficiently manage pricing and other terms for 260 contracts covering 2,114 meters and better integrate this information within one unified solution for plant accounting.

Benefits of W Energy

Following an onsite presentation of the W Energy Plant accounting solution, Superior selected its Plant Processing and Contract Management modules. Accounting staff at Superior report that they were impressed with the high level of knowledge demonstrated by the W Energy team and the ongoing service they have received.

Superior’s accounting team is saving significant time every month by importing volumes and gas analysis into W Energy’s plant accounting solution rather than manually inputting them into excel. The flexibility and intuitive user interfaces provided by the software have enabled the service provider’s accounting team to accelerate monthly settlement, rapidly allocate volumes, and efficiently scale as their plant accounting needs have evolved.

Superior has completely eliminated manual, spreadsheet-based plant accounting workflows with W Energy’s fully integrated Plant Processing and contract Management modules. This enables accounting staff to quickly aggregate plant accounting data and prepare a single view of asset performance for its management team, a process that was previously time-consuming and labor intensive.
