Description: WMB Williams Companies December 02, 2025

Williams Companies, Inc. (WMB) is a U.S.-focused energy infrastructure firm that operates four primary segments: Transmission & Gulf of America (interstate gas pipelines, storage, and Gulf Coast crude handling), Northeast G&P (midstream gathering and processing in the Marcellus and Utica shales), West (gas gathering, processing, and NGL fractionation across the Rocky Mountains, Barnett, Eagle Ford, Haynesville, Permian, and DJ basins), and Gas & NGL Marketing Services (wholesale marketing, trading, and storage of natural gas and NGLs). The company owns roughly 33,000 miles of pipelines and a network of storage assets that serve utilities, power generators, municipalities, and producers.

Key operational metrics as of FY 2023 include adjusted EBITDA of about $2.9 billion, a pipeline utilization rate near 78 %, and a capital-expenditure run-rate of roughly $1.2 billion, reflecting continued investment in capacity expansions and maintenance. The business is highly sensitive to U.S. natural-gas demand fundamentals-particularly winter heating loads and LNG export volumes-as well as to regulatory trends affecting pipeline approvals and carbon-intensity reporting. A notable sector driver is the ongoing spread between Henry Hub spot prices and long-term contract levels, which directly influences the profitability of the Gas & NGL Marketing Services segment.
