MDU Resources Group Inc. senior executives earlier this month promised to expand the midstream pipeline and construction business units following a “solid” performance in 2018 by all of the businesses.

MDU Resources Group Inc. said subsidiary WBI Energy Inc. plans to build a 67-mile natural gas pipeline and associated infrastructure to connect the core of the Bakken Shale in western North Dakota to an interconnection with the Northern Border Pipeline.

Bismarck, ND-based MDU Resources Group Inc. is eyeing opportunities to shore up infrastructure through its midstream pipeline and construction business units, the multi-state utility holding company’s executive team said.

Natural gas production in association with North Dakota’s Bakken oil continues to increase, prompting midstream operators like home-grown MDU Resources Group’s WBI Energy Inc. (WBI) to accelerate the buildout of gas infrastructure.

North Dakota-based MDU Resources Group’s Boise, ID-based Intermountain Gas Co. has filed its first request to increase base rates since 1985, seeking a $10.2 million (4%) annual increase.

MDU Resources Group Inc. has sold its remaining marketed oil and natural gas production assets, signaling the end of subsidiary Fidelity Exploration and Production Co., the company announced last week.
