"Natural gas pipelines are essential to the nation's energy future, which includes alternative sources such as renewable natural gas and hydrogen blended gas, and MountainWest brings increased scale and diversification to our business portfolio," Southwest CEO John Hester commented. "MountainWest will focus on adding value by accelerating growth opportunities and positioning the Company as a leader in the evolving energy landscape."

Southwest entered into a definitive agreement to buy Questar from Dominion in early October.
