What is the total value of Apollo Global Management's investment in Oneok's acquisition of Brazos Midstream's assets, and what does it cover?

Apollo Global Management Inc. and its affiliates are making a $9 billion investment that covers both the $4.4 billion acquisition of Brazos Midstream Holdings LLC’s Permian Midland Basin natural gas gathering and processing assets and the repayment of approximately $5 billion of Oneok’s debt.

How will this deal impact Oneok's processing capacity in the Midland Basin, and why is that significant?

The deal will more than double Oneok’s processing capacity on the Midland Basin side of the Permian, enabling the company to capture growing volumes of natural gas and natural gas liquids from the region—driven by demand from data centers and liquefied natural gas exports—and route them through its existing pipelines and processing infrastructure.
