HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Crestwood Equity Partners LP (NYSE: CEQP) (“Crestwood”) today announced that certain subsidiaries of Chord Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: CHRD) (f/k/a Oasis Petroleum Inc.) (the “Selling Unitholders”) intend to offer for sale in an underwritten secondary offering an aggregate of 11,400,000 common units representing limited partner interests of Crestwood (the “Public Offering”). The Selling Unitholders will receive all of the proceeds from the Public Offering. Crestwood is not offering any of its common units in the Public Offering and will not receive any proceeds from the Public Offering.
Additionally, Crestwood announced that it has entered into a common unit repurchase agreement with one of the Selling Unitholders pursuant to which it intends to repurchase up to an aggregate of $125 million of common units from such Selling Unitholder (the "Unit Repurchase"). The price per common unit to be paid by Crestwood will equal the price at which the common units will be sold to the public in the Public Offering. The Unit Repurchase is expected to be consummated concurrently with the closing of the Public Offering. Although the Unit Repurchase will be conditioned upon, among other things, the closing of the Public Offering, the closing of the Public Offering will not be conditioned upon the closing of the Unit Repurchase.
