ONEOK has bought the remaining stake of a gas and processing (G&P) asset that was included in the company’s EnLink Midstream acquisition in January in a cash-and-stock deal valued at $940 million.
ONEOK purchased the interest from Delaware G&P LLC (Delaware Basin JV), which is held by ONEOK joint venture partner NGP Midstream Holdings.
Delaware Basin JV owns natural gas G&P facilities in the Delaware Basin in Texas and New Mexico. The company’s network has a processing capacity of more than 700 MMcf/d.
Tulsa, Oklahoma-based ONEOK said on June 3 that it acquired the remaining 49.9% stake in Delaware Basin JV with $530 million in cash and $410 million in ONEOK common stock.
The transaction closed on May 28, making ONEOK the sole owner.
The Netherlands’s fragile governing coalition fell apart yesterday after far-right leader Geert Wilders withdrew his party over an immigration dispute. That forced Prime Minister Dick Schoof to offer his resignation, though he’s expected to stay on as a caretaker until the country can return to the polls. The coalition, which was formed just 11 months ago, was the Netherlands’s first far-right government, seizing on a wave of anti-immigrant sentiment sweeping Europe. Wilders said he exited abruptly because the government wasn’t implementing his desired curbs on immigration fast enough. Support for his Freedom Party continues to drop in polls, the BBC reported.

Musk called President Trump’s spending bill a “disgusting abomination.” In by far the biggest break with the president since becoming his political advisor last year, Elon Musk maligned Trump’s tax bill in a scathing post on X. “Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong,” the Tesla CEO added. Musk had previously voiced concerns with the bill, arguing it increases the deficit and undermines the work of DOGE, which he spearheaded until leaving the administration last week to focus on running his companies. After passing the House by just one vote, the bill now heads to the Senate, where it’s already met resistance, including from some of Trump’s fellow Republicans who are worried about adding trillions to the US’ debt.
