| Midstream Joint Venture | Midstream Joint Venture PipeBox LLC (the Midstream Joint Venture) is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company in which Blackstone Credit & Insurance (the BXCI Affiliate) holds a noncontrolling interest. As of June 30, 2026, the Midstream Joint Venture's assets included approximately 950 miles of FERC-regulated interstate pipelines, the Hammerhead Pipeline System (a gathering header pipeline that connects production in Pennsylvania and West Virginia to MVP Mainline and other interstate pipelines) and a 53.2% ownership interest in MVP A. Pursuant to the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of the Midstream Joint Venture (the JV Agreement), the Midstream Joint Venture is required to distribute available cash flow to its members at least quarterly. Under the JV Agreement, available cash flow is distributed 60% to the BXCI Affiliate (as the holder of the Class B units in the Midstream Joint Venture) and 40% to the Company (as the holder of Class A units in the Midstream Joint Venture) until the BXCI Affiliate achieves the Base Return (as defined in the JV Agreement). During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Midstream Joint Venture paid distributions of $238.0 million to the BXCI Affiliate. Distributions from the Midstream Joint Venture to the Company are eliminated in consolidation. As of June 30, 2026, the remaining amount required to achieve the Base Return was approximately $3.4 billion. Based on the provisions of the JV Agreement, the Company allocates the Midstream Joint Venture's net income between the Company and the BXCI Affiliate based on changes in each member's claim on the Midstream Joint Venture's book value. The Company recognizes net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest based on the amounts that each member would hypothetically receive at the balance sheet date under the JV Agreement's liquidation provisions, assuming that the net assets of the Midstream Joint Venture were liquidated at their recorded amounts and after taking into account any capital transactions between the Company and the BXCI Affiliate. MVP A Interest Acquisition. As discussed in Note 8, the Company completed the MVP A Interest Acquisition for total consideration of $198.3 million, excluding transaction costs, which was funded by the Midstream Joint Venture's members in proportion to each member's existing ownership interests in the Midstream Joint Venture through capital contributions. The BXCI Affiliate's capital contribution of $98.4 million is presented in contribution from noncontrolling interests in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In connection with such funding, the Midstream Joint Venture issued additional Class A units to the Company, as the Class A unitholder, and Class B units to the BXCI Affiliate, as the Class B unitholder, to maintain the members' relative ownership percentages. The capital contributions increased the BXCI Affiliate's claim on the Midstream Joint Venture's book value and, as a result, increased the remaining amount required to achieve the Base Return.
