Antero Midstream Partners LP (the “Partnership”) is a growth-oriented limited partnership formed by Antero Resources Corporation (“Antero”) to own, operate and develop midstream assets to service Antero’s natural gas and oil and condensate production. On November 10, 2014, the Partnership completed its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 46,000,000 common units representing limited partnership interests at a price of $25.00 per common unit. The Partnership was originally formed as Antero Resources Midstream LLC and converted to a limited partnership in connection with the completion of the IPO. At the closing of the IPO, Antero contributed substantially all of its high and low pressure gathering and compression assets to Antero Midstream LLC (“Midstream Operating”), and the equity interests of Midstream Operating were contributed to the Partnership. Our condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2015 include the accounts of Antero Midstream Partners LP and Antero Midstream LLC. Our assets consist of 8‑, 12‑, 16‑, and 20‑inch high and low pressure gathering pipelines and compressor stations that collect natural gas and oil and condensate from Antero’s wells in the Marcellus Shale in West Virginia and the Utica Shale in Ohio. We have agreements with Antero pursuant to which we will provide gathering and compression services for a 20-year period and a services agreement whereby Antero provides operational and management services to us.
