Energy Transfer Q3 Earnings Call Highlights Record Volumes, Oracle & Entergy Data Center Contracts

On November 5, Energy Transfer reported its financial results for the third quarter 2025 with an earnings call hosted by co-CEOs Tom Long and Mackie McCrea.

The Partnership saw several volume records during the quarter, including NGL exports (up 13%), NGL transportation (up 11%), NGL and refined products terminal volumes (up 10%) and midstream gathering volumes (up 3%). It also reported strong volumes through its natural gas interstate and intrastate pipelines (up 8% and 5%, respectively).

“Looking ahead, Energy Transfer is one of the best-positioned companies in the industry to help meet the substantial growth in demand for energy resources over the next several years. We are leveraging our strong relationships to develop new projects backed by high-quality counterparties on both the supply and demand side, and we see growth opportunities across all aspects of our business.” – Tom Long, co-CEO, Energy Transfer

Energy Transfer also shared several exciting business updates, including multiple agreements with Oracle to supply natural gas to three U.S. data centers, and a 20-year natural gas firm transportation agreement with Entergy Louisiana.

The Oracle data center agreements follow a recently signed 10-year agreement with Fermi America for Energy Transfer to deliver approximately 300 thousand MMBtu per day to Fermi’s HyperGrid campus located outside of Amarillo, Texas.

“We couldn’t be more upbeat about where we sit today with data centers throughout the country, but especially in Texas, because of our ability to perform and provide reliable gas service. We’re very excited for the future and we expect data centers and power plants to be part of our growth for many years.” – Mackie McCrea, co-CEO, Energy Transfer
