Our client purchased two integrated gathering and processing systems with approximately 1,900 miles of pipeline, gathering from approximately 3,500 wells across two states.  They needed to outsource all finance and accounting and information technology functions to support the operations of the assets they purchased and be able to scale with additional acquisitions.  The acquisition included field personnel only and no support functions beyond the 90-day Transition Services Agreement. Within the 90-day Transition Services Agreement a technology platform, finance, accounting, treasury, reporting and all other back-office functions had to be created to manage the newly acquired assets and be able to scale as additional acquisitions were made.
