Houston, TX – January 8, 2019 – Canyon Midstream Partners II, LLC (“CMP2”) today announced an increase to the revolving credit facility at its subsidiary Redcliff Midstream, LLC (“Redcliff”) from $70 million to $100 million. The bank group participating in the Redcliff credit facility includes Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”) as administrative agent; Amegy Bank, a division of Zions Bancorporation, N.A.

CMP2 also announced an expansion project at the company’s recently constructed cryogenic gas processing facility in Woodward County, Oklahoma (the “Redcliff Plant”). When the project is completed in the second quarter of 2019, the Redcliff Plant’s processing capacity will be 240 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d), representing a 20 percent increase over current plant capacity.
