Oasis Midstream Partners Announces Operations and Guidance Update

HOUSTON, June 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Oasis Midstream Partners LP (NYSE: OMP) (the "Partnership" or "OMP") has signed multiple third party agreements in the Williston Basin. These agreements span across all three of OMP's development companies ("DevCos"). OMP now has enhanced visibility on revenue and EBITDA growth across all product lines, including oil gathering and transportation, natural gas gathering and processing, produced water gathering and disposal and freshwater distribution. Substantially all of the EBITDA growth is underpinned by long term, fixed fee contracts. These third party projects in combination with robust growth at Oasis Petroleum position OMP to extend its runway of peer leading 20% annualized distribution growth.

"OMP has a large and strategically located asset in one of the premier oil basins in North America," said Taylor Reid, Chief Executive Officer of OMP. "Due to OMP's symbiotic relationship with Oasis Petroleum, the Partnership has been able to invest in the future growth trends of the Williston Basin for the benefit of both Oasis and third parties. A great example of our ability to capitalize on opportunities is our investment in the 200 MMscfpd gas processing plant in Wild Basin. This investment was facilitated by our intimate understanding of both the subsurface and infrastructure environment within the Williston Basin. We identified a need for incremental processing capacity in the basin due to growing gas production and limited Williston Basin infrastructure to handle additional volumes. Additionally, OMP has leveraged its other assets to capture third party growth across our platform."

Guidance Update
OMP is updating its expectations for capital expenditures ("CapEx") in 2018 based on investment required to fulfill third party agreements and current views on CapEx to support Oasis volume growth. The third party agreements and the associated incremental CapEx are spread across all three DevCos, including CapEx in Bobcat to gather third party volumes to Gas Plant II, which continues to stay on time and on budget. OMP has already commenced investment of capital for third party projects during the second quarter of 2018. The following table provides OMP's updated CapEx expectations for 2018:
