Note 4. Acquisitions

Hess Water Services Acquisition

On March 1, 2019, HIP acquired 100% of the membership interest in Hess Water Services that owns Hess’ existing Bakken water services business for $225.0 million in cash. HIP funded the purchase price through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its revolving credit facility. In connection with the Hess Water Services acquisition, HIP acquired the following:

 

(in millions)

 

 

 

Property, plant and equipment, net

Working capital

 

 

(1.2

)

Asset retirement obligations

 

 

(0.7

)

Net assets acquired

 

$

68.9

 

 

 

The transaction was accounted for as an acquisition of a business between entities under common control, and therefore, the related acquired assets and liabilities were transferred at Hess’ historical carrying value. In 2019, we recognized $156.1 million of consideration in excess of the book value of net assets acquired as a capital distribution to Hess, which is reflected within Net parent investment in the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in partners’ capital. In 2020, we received $1.6 million from Hess as part of the final settlement.

Hess Water Services is included in our gathering segment (see Note 14, Segments).

Tioga System Acquisition

On March 22, 2019, we acquired 100% of the membership interest in Tioga Midstream Partners LLC from Summit Midstream Partners, LP that owns oil, gas, and water gathering assets (the “Tioga System Acquisition”). The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The Tioga System, located in Williams County in western North Dakota, is complementary to our infrastructure, and is currently delivering volumes into our gathering system.

We paid $89.2 million in cash at closing, net of cash acquired, and recognized a contingent liability for additional potential payments in future periods subject to certain performance metrics. The contingent liability is included in Other noncurrent liabilities on our accompanying consolidated balance sheet (2021: $2.9 million, 2020: $7.0 million). The contingent liability was partially reduced in 2021 due to no planned drilling in the dedicated acreage. We funded the purchase price through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

The acquired Tioga System is included in our gathering segment (see Note 14, Segments).

Hess Infrastructure Partners LP Acquisition

On December 16, 2019, the Company and the Partnership completed the Restructuring, pursuant to which the Partnership acquired all of the partnership interests in HIP from the Sponsors, including HIP’s retained 80% economic interest in the Joint Interest Assets, 100% interest in Hess Water Services and the outstanding economic general partner and incentive distribution rights in the Partnership. The Partnership’s organizational structure converted from a master limited partnership into an “Up-C” structure in which the Partnership’s public unitholders received newly issued Class A Shares in Hess Midstream LP in a one-for-one exchange. The Partnership changed its name to “Hess Midstream Operations LP” and became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. As a consideration for the Restructuring, the Sponsors received 898,000 Class A Shares in the Company, 266,416,928 Class B Units representing noncontrolling limited partner interests in the Partnership and cash consideration of $601.8 million. Class B Units of the Partnership together with the same number of Class B Shares of the Company are convertible to Class A Shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis (see Note 9, Partners’ Capital and Distributions).

Our 2019 consolidated statement of operations includes $26.2 million of costs associated with the Restructuring reflected in general and administrative expenses.
