Management expects these investments to support continued growth and capitalize on favorable midstream market conditions.

How does EPD manage its financial risk and liquidity?

The company manages its financial risk through a diversified business model, long-term fee-based contracts, and strategic use of derivative instruments to hedge commodity price and interest rate exposures.
