Midstream

Segment of the energy industry focused on transportation, storage, and processing of oil and gas between fields and markets.

Midstream refers to the segment of the oil and gas industry focused on transportation, storage, and processing between production and end markets. It includes pipelines, terminals, and export facilities.

Midstream infrastructure enables crude oil and products to move efficiently from fields to refineries and consumers. Capacity constraints can create regional price dislocations.

Traders interact with midstream assets through storage leases, pipeline commitments, and terminal access agreements. These assets often embed optionality valuable in volatile markets.

Understanding midstream logistics is essential for physical oil trading and arbitrage strategies.
