(8)  Reporting Segments

 

The Partnership’s operations are located in the United States and are organized into two reporting segments: (1) gathering and compression and (2) water handling.

 

Gathering and Compression

 

The gathering and compression segment includes a network of gathering pipelines and compressor stations that transport oil and natural gas products from Antero’s wells in the Marcellus and Utica Shales.

 

Water Handling

 

The Partnership’s water handling segment includes two independent fresh water distribution systems that source and deliver fresh water from the Ohio River and several regional waterways for well completion operations in Antero’s operating areas. These systems consist of permanent buried pipelines, surface pipelines and fresh water storage facilitates, as well as pumping stations and impoundments to transport the fresh water throughout the pipelines.

 

These segments are monitored separately by management for performance and are consistent with internal financial reporting. These segments have been identified based on the differing products and services, regulatory environment and the expertise required for these operations. We evaluate the performance of the Partnership’s business segments based on operating income.

 

Summarized financial information concerning the Partnership’s segments for the periods indicated is shown in the following table (in thousands):
