Additionally, the following senior management team members will be available for Q&A: Pat McDonie, President, Gathering and Processing, Scott Pryor, President, Logistics and Transportation, and Bobby Muraro, Chief Commercial Officer. I'll now turn the call over to Matt. Thanks, Tristan, and good morning to everyone. Before we get started, I want to welcome Tristan Richardson to Targa. Tristan will be leading our Investor Relations and Fundamentals functions after previously working in energy sell-side research for the last 13 years. With Tristan and Sanjay, we are in excellent position to continue to support our investors, analysts, and potential investors with our best-in-class team. The third quarter was very strong on a number of fronts: record volumes, record adjusted EBITDA, and continued execution across our footprint, which sets us up well for the balance of this year and provides a lot of momentum as we turn to 2025. Given our outperformance through the first nine months of the year, we expect to beat the high end of our previously provided Adjusted EBITDA range, which means more than $500 million of year-over-year growth, exceeding the midpoint of our initially provided guidance range for 2024 by more than $250 million. Over the past several years, we have deliberately taken steps to successfully position Targa across volatile markets, and we are benefiting from those steps. We have largely removed exposure to downside commodity prices with 90% of our margin now fee-based or supported by fee-floor contracts. We have continued to invest in growth capital in attractive opportunities with best-in-class customers, with a focus on deals that allow us to move volumes all the way through our integrated system. We have significantly strengthened our balance sheet and are now a strong investment-grade credit across all three agencies. We have returned an increasing amount of capital to our shareholders while maintaining financial flexibility. We believe that these important steps enhance our abilities to generate attractive returns for our shareholders across commodity price cycles. Our excitement around Targa's short, medium, and long-term outlook begins with our Permian position, and there are a lot of good things going on there. Our new plants have continued to come online, essentially full, and given our expectation that our plants in progress will do the same, today we announce that we are moving forward with our next two new Permian plants in response to higher anticipated growth we are seeing and to ensure we keep pace with our producers. We are continuing to enhance our sour gas treating position in the Delaware Basin with additional investments in front-end treating and AGI infrastructure. Our new 800 million cubic feet per day sour gas treater and injection well comes online in early 2025 at our Bull Moose Complex, which, along with our current six active acid gas injection wells, will increase our treating capacity to over 2.3 billion cubic feet per day in the Delaware. Additionally, we are utilizing and enhancing existing infrastructure to capture and sequester CO2 in the Permian and will be accruing some 45Q tax credits in the fourth quarter of this year and increasing over time. Our Permian growth drives increasing volumes through our downstream assets. Daytona was much needed when it came online. Train 9 has been full since it came online, and Train 10 and GCF are much needed and will be highly utilized. Our premier Permian supply aggregation position, coupled with our integrated NGL system, positions us nicely to continue to generate strong returns on our invested capital and be able to continue to return increasing capital to our shareholders over time. Before I turn the call over to Jen to discuss operations and capital allocation in more detail, I would like to extend a thank you to the Targa team for their continued focus on safety and execution while continuing to provide best-in-class service and reliability to our customers. The growth we are experiencing requires a lot of coordination across our organization, and we are proud of our employees. Thanks, Matt. Good morning, everyone. Let's talk about the strength of our operational results in more detail. Starting in the Permian, our natural gas inlet volumes averaged a record six billion cubic feet per day during the third quarter, a 5% increase when compared to the second quarter. Versus last year, our Permian volumes were up 18%, over 900 million cubic feet per day, or more than three full plants, driving record NGL transportation and fractionation volumes. Our G&P volume growth has led to an acceleration of timing of our processing plants, including the two that we announced today. In Permian Midland, our new Greenwood II plant commenced operations in early October, essentially full. Our next Midland plants, Pembroke II and East Pembroke, will be much needed and remain on track to begin operations in the fourth quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2026. The new Midland plant that we announced this morning, East Driver, is expected to begin operations in the third quarter of 2026. In Permian, Delaware, we are continuing to benefit from increasing volumes. Our next Delaware plants, Bull Moose and Bull Moose II, will be much needed and remain on track to begin operations in the first quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026. Our next new Delaware plant, Falcon II, is expected to begin operations in the second quarter of 2026. Shifting to our logistics and transportation segment, Targa's NGL pipeline transportation volumes averaged a record 829,000 barrels per day, and fractionation volumes averaged a record 954,000 barrels per day during the third quarter. Our NGL transportation and fractionation volumes increased 6% sequentially as we benefited from increased supply from our Permian GMP systems. Given the anticipated growth in our Permian GMP business and corresponding plant additions, our outlook for NGL supply growth is robust, and our downstream system expansions are very much needed to handle growth from our systems. Our next fractionator in Mont Belvieu, Train 11, remains on track for the third quarter of 2026. In our LPG export business at Galena Park, our loadings averaged 12.4 million barrels per month during the third quarter, despite our volumes being impacted by a required 10-year inspection that reduced our loading capability from mid-June through late July. We see continued strength in global demand for U.S.-sourced LPGs, and we remain on track to complete our next expansion, which will increase our loading capacity an incremental 650,000 barrels per month in the H2 of 2025. Turning to capital allocation, our priorities remain the same, which are to maintain a strong investment-grade balance sheet, to continue to invest in high-returning integrated projects, and to return an increasing amount of capital to our shareholders across cycles, and we are delivering on those priorities. We are returning meaningful increases in capital year-over-year to our investors. We opportunistically repurchased $168 million of common shares during the third quarter. Through three quarters, we have repurchased nearly $650 million of common shares at a weighted average price of $121.50, a substantial increase over $347 million of share repurchases for full year 2023. Our year-to-date repurchase activity means we are in position to return 40%-50% of our adjusted cash flow from operations to shareholders this year. This is an acceleration versus previous expectations driven by the outperformance of the business and our strengthening outlook. We are pleased to announce this morning that we expect to recommend to our board an increase to the 2025 annual common dividend to $4 per share, a 33% increase over the 2024 dividend level. This provides our shareholders with a meaningful year-over-year increase while continuing to maintain our flexibility. Beyond 2025, we expect to be in position to continue to provide meaningful annual increases to our common dividend per share. We believe that we offer a compelling value proposition for our shareholders and potential shareholders: growing EBITDA, a growing common dividend per share, reducing share count, and excellent short, medium, and long-term outlooks. We also recently published our 2023 sustainability report. Our report reflects that we take our responsibilities of being an operator of critical natural gas and NGL infrastructure seriously and celebrates the continued hard work of our employees. We look forward to your feedback. I will now turn the call over to Will to discuss our third quarter financial results. Will? Thanks, Jen. Targa's reported adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter was a record $1.07 billion, a 9% increase over the second quarter. The sequential increase was attributable to higher Permian volumes, which resulted in higher system volumes across our integrated NGL business and to continued natural gas and NGL optimization opportunities in our marketing business. The adjusted operating margin for our gathering and processing segment set another quarterly record of $788 million as a result of the strength of volume growth supported by our fee and fee-floor contracts. Our logistics and transportation segment also set another quarterly record with adjusted operating margin of $717 million, backed by record NGL transportation and fractionation throughput. As Matt mentioned, we now estimate full year 2024 adjusted EBITDA to be above the top end of our previously disclosed $3.95 billion-$4.05 billion range. We anticipate a strong finish to 2024 as our recently completed expansions and capacity additions across Permian GMP and NGL transportation and fractionation support continued volume growth. For the third quarter, our net maintenance capital spending was approximately $60 million. Our current year estimate for net maintenance capital spending remains $225 million. Our net growth capital spending was approximately $700 million for the quarter. Our net growth capital spending for 2024 will depend on our ability to order certain long lead time items before year-end. Among other factors, we currently expect spending to modestly exceed $2.7 billion. The acceleration of spending on infrastructure to handle additional volume growth is expected to increase our net growth capital spending for 2025 and contribute to higher Adjusted EBITDA when the incremental plants we announced today are in service in 2026. We continue to expect a meaningful inflection in 2025 free cash flow generation relative to 2024 and will provide additional details on 2025 growth capital spending in February once we are fully through our planning process. In August, we extended the maturity of our $600 million accounts receivable securitization facility to August 2025, and we successfully completed a $1 billion note offering of 5.5% coupon senior notes due 2035. The notes offering allowed us to enhance our liquidity position by reducing borrowings under our commercial paper note program, a portion of which was incurred to repay the remaining $500 million outstanding under our prior $1.5 billion unsecured terminal facility, which was terminated in May 2024. At the end of the third quarter, we had approximately $1.9 billion of available liquidity, and our net consolidated leverage ratio was approximately 3.6 times, well within our long-term leverage ratio target range of three to four times. Moody's upgraded Targa to Baa2 in early October, reflective of the progress we have made to date and our outlook for the future. We have now achieved upgrades from all three agencies in 2024 and have mid BBB ratings and a stable outlook at each of the three rating agencies. Maintaining a strong investment-grade balance sheet remains a priority at Targa. Having been at Targa for a little over three months now, I am humbled every day by the dedication and tremendous work ethic of the employees of Targa. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this exceptional team. With that, I will turn the call back over to Tristan. Thank you, Will. For the Q&A session, we ask that you limit yourself to one question and one follow-up, and reenter the queue if you have additional questions. Michelle, please open the line for Q&A. Thank you. As a reminder to ask a question, please press star one one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw the question, please press star one one again. And our first question will come from Theresa Chen with Barclays. Your line is now open. Good morning, and thank you for taking my questions. Congratulations on the fundamental growth and the accelerated pace of growth over the near term. I was curious, as we look to 2025 CapEx and general capital allocation plans, can you provide more color on A, how long do you expect this accelerated growth to endure, and B, how high could CapEx go to in 2025? Hey, good morning, Teresa. Yeah, no, we're excited about the results today. We're really excited just about the overall performance we've seen so far this year, and it's just translating into higher EBITDA growth, higher volumes across our GMP footprint into downstream. We think that really sets us up well as we look into 2025. In terms of capital spending, as we look to 2025, we've certainly seen an acceleration on the gathering and processing side of things. It's resulted in more field-level capital for this year, and it's likely to continue into next year, additional pipelines, additional compression, but it's also resulted in acceleration of our plant timing. Earlier in this year, we had an estimate of when we were going to be putting plants on for the next 12, 24, 36 months, and that has accelerated just as our volumes have moved significantly higher. Third quarter was up 900 million a day versus third quarter of last year. We were expecting growth this year, but not that level of growth. So we think that really just puts us in good position as we go forward. So accelerating Falcon II plant and East Driver plant, that's going to drive more capital in 2025. We don't have a number we're going to give you yet. We're still going through our planning process. We plan to give you more details of what our G&P spending is, cadence of any additional plants and our plant timing in February, and on the downstream side, what ultimately that means when those plants come on, generate more NGLs, what that's going to mean for our downstream business. So that's kind of the planning we're going through now, and we plan to give you more color on that in February. Got it. Thank you. And looking at the downstream throughputs across your dock, clearly seeing an uptick following partial downtime in third quarter, and fourth quarter looks extremely robust. Can you just provide a forward outlook on how you expect this to trend? How much of it at this point do you think is going to be seasonal versus just the relentless supply push of molecules across your docks through the integrated NGL value chain? Hi, Teresa. This is Scott. First off, yes, we had a nice quarter during the third quarter. It was a nice rebound from what we had in the second quarter of this year. So, a lot, even though it was impacted, the second quarter was impacted by the vessel inspection that we had, and that lingered into the month of July. So, when we look at the back half of third quarter, we certainly had significant increase over the months, and we would see that continuing as we move into the fourth quarter now that we've got the full complement of all of our refrigeration capacity. So, I would anticipate during the fourth quarter that the volumes would be very comparable, if not exceed what we saw in the third quarter. We continue to benefit from a variety of sources of demand, both of it on the propane side as well as on the butane side. And we're utilizing really not only our VLGC docks, but we're using some of our smaller docks that complement MGCs and LGCs and moving to markets that are closer than, say, Asia. So a lot of that benefited as we looked across the third quarter then into the fourth quarter. Moving into 2025, I think it's going to be very much the same story. We've benefited as an industry with a number of vessels that have come online both in 2024 and now in 2025. We'll continue to see more vessels delivered to the marketplace on both the VLGC side as well as the MGC side. So I think it's just setting itself up to where right now freight is relatively low, and it puts us in a position to where it's easy to fund supply from the U.S. into the markets across the world. Thank you. Our next question comes from Jeremy Tonet with JPMorgan. Your line is open. Hi, good morning. Hey, good morning, Jeremy. Good morning. So out of the producer activity, I think the producers in the basin, I think we've heard some mixed messages with regards to, I think, the integrated versus large independents versus smaller. And just wondering if you could share a bit more on your conversations with producer customers here and particularly how your New Mexico position, I guess, differentiates you from others in the basin? Yeah. Hey, Jeremy, this is Matt. I'll start, and then Pat, if you want to add on. The discussions we're having with producers, it is a mix. The small, mid, large cap, we have a portfolio of customers, and it's not all the same. But what we are seeing generally is more growth on the gas side relative to their expectations. So we haven't necessarily seen more activity, but we have just seen the wells be more productive. And whether that's slower declines, increasing GORs, higher IPs, we're just seeing more volumes. We continue to be surprised this year to the upside on gas volumes. And as we look out, we're sorting through our producer forecast right now and what that's going to mean for 2025, 2026 growth. We think there's going to be significant growth. Kind of where exactly that falls out is kind of what we're working through right now. But I think we remain bullish on the outlook for natural gas growth across our footprint. As you look to New Mexico, we've had a really good footprint in the Delaware for some time. But I would say when we acquired the Lucid assets in 2022, to us, they had the best Delaware footprint. And so that fit nicely into our systems that we had. We were able to integrate those systems. And I think when you look at just the rigs, where the activity is, we kind of have a best-in-class system across the Delaware with the complement of Lucid. So I think we're in good position to capture the strong activity in the New Mexico area. Got it. The only thing I had. Oh, sorry. No, I was going to say the only thing I had to add is Matt's right. With the Lucid acquisition, it was definitely a step up for us in the Delaware. And the steps we've taken to integrate that system into our other Delaware systems and the sour gas infrastructure that we've built out have led to a lot of commercial success. The Delaware Basin is growing rapidly. There's a lot of gas over there, and we're positioned very well to take advantage of that. Got it. That's very helpful. Thank you. And then kind of continuing here as it relates to the gas picture and gas egress from the basin, we have a couple of projects in motion at this point. You're part of one of them. How do you think about, I guess, the picture for future gas egress needs in the basin? When do you think that could materialize next, and what do you think Targa's involvement could be here? This is Bobby. I think we announced our partnership with Blackcomb a little bit ago. We're excited about that project moving forward, and it's going well. I think we've said before, and we'll continue to say, we want to see as much egress out of the basin happen as possible. We know there are a lot of other pipes that are in the works right now. We were thinking about 28 when we were working on the 26 pipe with Blackcomb. So we continue to work on what is needed going forward. With what we're seeing in gas production coming out of the wells, we expect there to be an on-the-margin faster cadence for the need on gas pipes. So if someone else gets another gas pipe done, quote-unquote, "today," we think that's great for the basin, and we would be excited to see it happen. Got it. And if I could just round that out a little bit more. In basin consumption growth, industrial demand growth, or even maybe data centers down the road, do you see that, I guess, impacting the picture there? This is Bob again. I think we know there are a lot of people talking about it right now. We are in conversations with customers that are in conversations with all of those consumption points. So what gets built, when it gets built, what actually gets permitted and put under construction, I think is yet to be seen. But there is a lot of action and a lot of conversation going on right now across the basin around those topics. Got it. Thank you very much. Okay. Thanks, Jeremy. Our next question comes from Michael Blum with Wells Fargo. Your line is open. Thanks, Scott. Good morning, everyone. Wanted to ask about the growth. Hey, good morning, Mike. Good morning. I wanted to ask about sort of the long-term trend here in growth CapEx. Obviously, you're trending higher here in the near term. I noticed you still have that same slide which shows a typical year at $1.7 billion. So is that still kind of the kind of normal year, normalized run rate, or is that number moving higher as producers, these numbers sort of exceed your expectations? Michael, this is Jen. I think that when we put out that illustrative framework, we said that a good multi-year average for growth capital spending in a high single-digit Permian Basin growth environment would be about $1.7 billion, and I believe we even caveated on the slide that if we were going to see growth substantially higher from there, we would expect CapEx to move higher as well. All very much core growth capital spending, the need for more gathering lines, more compression, potentially requiring the acceleration of major growth capital projects like plants and then downstream infrastructure, so the framework still holds for an environment where you're seeing high single-digit growth. As Matt said, so far, we've experienced 18% growth Permian this quarter relative to the third quarter of last year. For the nine months of this year, we're up 14% relative to the nine months of last year. So clearly, we are in a more robust environment, and that's resulting in us needing to accelerate some spending for that core infrastructure, additional gathering lines, compression, plant capital to make sure that we're in position to handle the increasing growth for our producers. I think Pat also mentioned that we've enjoyed a lot of commercial success this year, and that's resulting in us needing to accelerate infrastructure spend on the GMP side for 2026 when we expect growth to continue to increase versus previous expectations when we provided that in February. So I think absolutely it still holds together. It ultimately just depends what your view is of Permian growth, and in particular, Permian growth on target systems where we are seeing more growth than others. And we very consistently have said that that's the case since we put out that framework in February. Okay. Makes sense. Then I wanted to just ask about buybacks. Would you say that you're now in more of an almost routinized type of buyback approach, or is it still very much opportunistic and price-sensitive? And if it's the latter, how do you think about the pace of buybacks as the stock price just continues to move higher? Thanks. I would say that we are very much continuing to be opportunistic around share repurchases, and that's how we expect to continue to think about it going forward. Our priorities around capital allocation are unchanged. I think that what we've seen this year is a very strong 2024 is resulting in a lot more momentum when we think about 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, and beyond that. We have a lot of conviction in what we have going on here at Targa for the short, medium, and long term, and what you're seeing is us opportunistically execute around repurchases based on that conviction, and so I think you should continue to expect repurchases going forward, but they will continue to be opportunistic. We consider a number of different factors in terms of what our daily and quarterly activity looks like, so you should certainly expect some continued variability moving forward. But we do believe it's a very important tool for us to be able to use to return more capital to our shareholders as we move forward through time. Thank you. Thank you. And the next question comes from Keith Stanley with Wolfe Research. Your line is open. Hi, good morning. It seems like a pretty meaningful change in your volume outlook even versus three months ago. I mean, you just updated the 2024 and 2025 EBITDA and CapEx. So with that in mind, I wanted to just check back in on plans for NGL pipeline spending. Do you envision that potentially now being accelerated into 2025 at this point? Hey, Keith. Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, no, sorry. I was going to say, Scott, go ahead. Okay. Keith, this is Scott. So certainly, when we look at our transportation legs, when we looked at the third quarter, we averaged 784,000, excuse me, 829,000 barrels a day of transportation. We got a partial benefit of Daytona coming online in the third quarter. Obviously, in the fourth quarter, we'll have the full complement of our west leg of Grand Prix and then Daytona. And then that marries up with our 30-inch pipe that moves into Mont Belvieu that gets contributions from the North Texas area as well as Oklahoma. So we've got some operating leverage today, certainly on the west leg when you think about those two 24-inch pipes. And then we've got some operating leverage on the 30-inch pipe. The other thing that we've done in order to really take care of what our growing capacities are relative to what's going on on the upstream side is we've entered into some third-party agreements that allows us the opportunity to really push out some capital, benefit from the timing of when we would need to basically loop our 30-inch line. So those agreements, along with the operating leverage we have today, really gives us the benefit of time to evaluate what the volume trends look like over time. Those agreements that we've done really are in cadence. They ramp up in volume capacities that match up very well with kind of our near-term plant growth. But obviously, as we continue to add plants on the upstream side, eventually, we'll be in a position where we'll have to loop that 30-inch pipe. We will continue to evaluate that as we move into 2025 with our budget process, and we're looking at CapEx. So I think we've got the benefit of time on our side right now with those agreements and the current leverage that we have. Okay. Thanks for that. Second question. The marketing was really strong in Q3. Would you attribute that more to spot LPG exports, or is it optimization around weak Permian gas again? And on exports, it seems like you're constructive on pricing, but any sense of volumes you can share that might be able to take advantage of the strong ARBs? Keith, this is Jen. I'll start. I'd say that it's been a strong year of marketing for us across all of NGL, natural gas, and export marketing. We generally don't factor that into our guidance. So when you think about some of the factors that have contributed to our outperformance this year, certainly having a strong marketing year has been one of those variables. I think that as we look forward, we expect that given the vastness of our footprint, we would be able to continue to identify strong marketing opportunities. But ultimately, it's really a combination of a lot of factors. And it's driven by the fact that we are moving so much volume across both our gas and NGL systems. That's really affording us some unique marketing opportunities as we've moved forward through time. Keith, this is Scott. Just as a follow-up to what we said earlier, the volumes in the third quarter were impacted a little bit due to our vessel inspection. But as we move into the fourth quarter, we would expect that to improve. Again, we benefited on the export side by being able to squeeze other cargoes in, again, the smaller-sized type vessels because we were playing a little bit of catch-up with the downtime that we had with the vessel inspection in the third quarter. So we'll see if the ARBs continue to be strong, and we'll look for opportunities to optimize around the system. Thank you. Okay. Thanks, Keith. And our next question comes from Jean Salisbury with Bank of America. Your line is open. Hi. I believe that you've said before that most of your producer base has gas egress and hasn't been backed up the last two quarters, which I think has really showed in your volume results today. Does that mean that as Matterhorn ramps through the end of the year, you wouldn't really expect an outsized quarter-on-quarter step-up in volumes kind of over the next quarter or two as gas gets unlocked from the basin? Yeah. Hey, I'll start. We have not seen, I would say, across our producers, really Midland and Delaware, any negative volume impact from not having gas takeaway. We try and work with our customers to make sure that if Targa is handling and moving those volumes on behalf of our producers, we have enough firm transport intra and out of the basin to be able to move those volumes. And then producers on our system that have their own take-or-pay positions typically have enough transport to get those out. And so we work with them to make sure we can move those volumes. So I wouldn't say that'll be a factor in kind of quarter-to-quarter growth. As you look at just our volume growth across this year, in the last two quarters, we've been about 300 million a day, give or take, of volume growth in the second and third quarter. That's higher than normal. I don't know that I'd plug that in for another 300 for Q4. I think we're going to have some growth, but it's likely not going to be in a straight line as you kind of move forward. I think we see strong growth going forward, but Q4 is likely to be a bit muted compared to the strength we saw in the second and third quarter. Just to provide a little bit more visibility in the fourth quarter, we do also have a lower margin contract that's rolling over on the GMP side. So that will also reduce volumes quarter over quarter. So again, I think that speaks to us not being able to sustain the 300 million a day of growth that we've seen the last couple of quarters. Although we are still performing exceptionally well and are still seeing a lot of volumes come to us, that contract rollover will impact the fourth quarter. That makes sense. Very clear. Thank you. And then it seems like you should have the volume to fill your LPG expansion basically immediately after it comes online next year. But there's obviously a lot of LPG export capacity coming online at the same time. Beyond that existing expansion, would you consider deploying the strategy that you've discussed of signing up for third-party LPG capacity, kind of like what you do for pipelines, to defer your own spend from here? Or do you see it as more strategic in value to have your own export capacity? Yeah. I think what we're trying to do, the easy debottlenecks, which are really economic for us to just handle kind of the incremental volume growth we see across our footprint. But as this next one we have coming on mid-next year, we are right now looking at kind of a larger step-up in our LPG exports and bringing on capacity. Others are adding some as well. We're just seeing a lot of NGL volume growth, and so are others. So I think it's all going to be needed. So we're currently evaluating right now the timing and the size of our next LPG export expansion. It's likely going to include pipeline and additional refrigeration. You had both of those together. It's probably around $350 million or so for those two pieces. And so that's part of our planning process. And as we think about capital for 2025 and 2026, when we're going to need that, does some of that capital end up in the back half of 2025, or is that a 2026, 2027, 2028 kind of spending? That's what we're sorting through right now. But I do think it's needed. I don't see us in any real meaningful long-term way contracting with others to bridge for us. I think we'll handle our own export across our dock, our own volumes. Yeah. And just to complement that a little bit, Jean, this is Scott. I would say that the primary pieces that Matt talked about on the, excuse me, on the refrigeration side and on the pipeline side, as he said, kind of in that $350 million range. And then before that and even after that, we'll look for ways to kind of debottleneck even around that system by just improved piping, both at our Mont Belvieu facility as well as at our Galena Park facility. We're an aggregator of supply in Mont Belvieu. So as our volumes start ramping up, that is, quote-unquote, "coming off of our system," puts us in a position to prioritize that volume as opposed to volumes that we could aggregate in and around the Mont Belvieu marketplace. So future expansions, we would look to take care of our volumes, but we would also put ourselves in a position to where we might have some capacity that we could optimize around that as well. Great. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. Our next question comes from John MacKay with Goldman Sachs. Your line is open. Hey, good morning. Thanks for the time. You guys have had this sour gas footprint for a while now, but you spent a little more time talking about it on this call. So I'd just be curious to hear kind of how much of that pocket of the business could grow from here, what CapEx associated with that could look like, because it's a little different than a typical kind of GMP buildout, and maybe just next milestones to watch there. Thanks. Yeah, sure. We have been operating sour gas infrastructure kind of through Targa's history and even going back to the Dynegy days. So we have decades of experience of handling sour gas out there. We've seen the Delaware side continue to get more and more sour. So years ago, we really ramped up our spending to be able to handle more sour volumes out there. And that's really both H2S and CO2. So we mentioned in the call today, we have an 800 million a day treater coming online at our Bull Moose Complex. We have additional wells being drilled in the permitting phase to continue to handle more and more volumes as the Delaware gets more and more sour over time. So we think that really does give us an advantage as we look out for growth over the short, medium, and longer term. It's a little bit more tricky to handle the sour volumes. It's a little more difficult than just handling sweet volumes. And so when it's harder, it gives us just better opportunity to work with our producers to handle those volumes. So we see that trend continuing, and I think that leads to some of our optimism about our longer-term growth rate out in the Delaware. This is Bobby. If you think about all the plants we've announced over the last several years on the eastern side of the Delaware Basin, even though we don't talk about it, all those plants are sour plants. So we don't talk about that. But if you think about Midway, or if you think about Wildcat, or if you think about Bull Moose, or any of those plants, all those are sour plants. We just don't label them that way, or we haven't historically as brightly as we do now, just because that has obviously become front and center of one of the talking points in the industry, so. I appreciate that. That's good. Maybe just an actually quick follow-up to that then. You talked about getting some 45Q credits in this quarter. We're getting closer. You guys are getting closer to kind of a broader cash tax payment requirement over the next couple of years. Could the 45Qs get to a meaningful size where we're talking about some real offsets there, or is this kind of a nice-to-have but a little more on the margin in the grand scheme? This is Bobby. So I think when you talk about grand scheme, I think it's on the margin, but it is also a nice-to-have. So when you think about all of those assets I just talked about on the eastern side of the Delaware Basin where we are putting in sour infrastructure that gathers that sour gas, strips out the CO2 and H2S, and injects it, we modify those systems a little bit, and then we are able to get 45Q. So it is a very nice complement to that business and very efficient capital to spend in order to get that 45Q. So it turns into something that we don't have to do a whole lot more and be able to capture the 45Q. We continue to develop the CCUS business where it's not required to inject, and that's in our forecasts over time. But at the end of the day, when you talk about grand scheme of Targa, it is not huge relative to everything else we have going on. And so just to finish that out, John, that means that from our perspective, it doesn't meaningfully change our outlook for cash taxes. As Bobby said, it's a nice-to-have, but there's really no change to our current expectation that we'll be subject to the AMT in 2026 and then a full cash tax payer in 2027 when we've worked our way through our NOL. And that's all inclusive of our full business operations, including the opportunities set around CCUS. Appreciate that. Thanks very much. Okay. Thank you. And our next question comes from Manav Gupta with UBS. Your line is open. First of all, a big congratulations to Tristan. Every time a sell-side analyst is able to do a jailbreak, it feels very nice for the rest of us. There is hope for us. Well, thank you for that. My quick question, just one of them is, can you provide us more details around Falcon II or East Driver plants, why the decision to move ahead with them, anything you can give us on the economics or the build multiple? Thank you. Sure. I'd say the economics and build multiple is really the same that we've articulated previously. We've kind of pointed to around five and a half times as our organic build multiple. I don't see these being materially different from that. So I think it just puts us in position to continue to invest, be there for our producers, and execute on our core business, gathering and processing, and then moving the NGLs through our downstream infrastructure. And the timing of those, as I mentioned earlier, we're just seeing more volumes across both the Delaware and the Midland side of the Permian. And so that's led us to announce those kind of sooner than we were expecting. If you kind of go back to the beginning of the year, we were not anticipating announcing these plants right now and starting this work as soon as we are. But the volume upside has led us to accelerate these plants and then to be evaluating the timing of the next plants. And this is Bobby. As Jen mentioned earlier in the call, Greenwood II coming up, highly utilized. At the end of the day, we keep trying to get a plant ahead. We keep trying to create space to be able to do overhauls and maintenance and everything else. And this is a continued effort to try to get ahead so we can do all the things we need to do within our system and service our producers at the same time. Thank you for taking my question. Okay. Thank you. And our next question comes from Neal Dingmann with Truist. Your line is open. Morning. Congrats on another nice quarter. Welcome, Tristan. Guys, my first question is just on your Permian Basin activity outlook, specifically I see on slide 8, you mentioned your associated gas forecast. It looks very favorable. I'm just wondering, I'd love to hear sort of what type of rig activity do you see and maybe macro oil price you're assuming around that associated gas forecast. Yeah. This is Pat. When you look across the Permian right now, one out of every three rigs is running on Targa acreage. So activity level on our acreage footprint is very robust. And obviously, that acreage position that we have tied up is pretty significant. Matt alluded to it earlier on one of the other questions. It's producer-specific, right? We are seeing a lot of activity from different size producers and new formations being explored and developed. Some of those are very gassy, which leads to gas growth across both Midland and Delaware sides of the basin. Unfortunately, we've had commercial success, additional new commercial success to tie up those plays. So it's the historical stuff we've always seen with the large acreage dedications and the activity and the commitment of very high-grade producers, and then some new stuff that's getting developed that we've been successful on. So when we look across the next five years, especially the next 24 to 36 months, we see a lot of gas growth on our systems and a lot of activity on our systems. Yeah. That makes total sense. And then my second question just on your future capital spend specifically, just wondering, would y'all suggest there's any possible or potential incredible assets out there that could delay your meaningful 2025 free cash inflection, or does that nodal upside or upcoming inflection appear to be relatively certain? I think when you just look at just our overall EBITDA growth we're going to have in 2025 and we haven't given a firm number for capital yet for 2025, but I think we're comfortable saying we're going to have a significant amount of free cash flow in 2025. Where exactly that shakes out is kind of what we're working through in our planning process as we've talked about. Delaying or deferring that, I guess you're implying kind of M&A. We continue to look at assets, bolt-ons in and around our systems. We've continued to look really since the Lucid acquisition at assets. But I think just for us, the bar continues to be very high for us, so we'll continue to evaluate if there's something we can tuck in that looks really nice and has good value for Targa shareholders. We'll look at it. It's just the bar is going to be pretty high. We have a lot of growth on our GMP footprint and our downstream footprint. Our first priority is to make sure we execute on what we have organically in front of us. That's just going to continue to be our priority. Yeah. The growth is notable. Thank you all. Thank you. Thank you. Our next question comes from AJ O'Donnell with TPH. Your line is open. Good morning, everyone. Thanks for taking my question. Just one for me, and I kind of just wanted to go on a clarifying question to something that Jen brought up. Looking at Q4 volumes and our potential Q4 volume growth and now that Matterhorn is online, I'm curious if you guys have seen a jump in production from your customers with the new pipe being online or if some of the flows we're seeing online or with that pipe right now is just gas moving around the basin? Thanks. Yeah, sure. No, from our customers, I would say I have heard of some customers that were not producing because they either didn't like the Waha price or didn't have takeaway. But customers on our system, they were flowing and producing. So I think basin-wide, perhaps there is some of that. But for our customers, for I think the most part, Pat, they were producing and had takeaway. Absolutely. Yeah. So I think what's happening now is volume is kind of coming off others, moving on Matterhorn, and it's just trying to find its way out of the basin. But with Matterhorn up and other pipelines online, there should be sufficient capacity at least for a while to handle those volumes. What you're seeing now is some maintenance on some pipes and some other disruptions on existing pipes, which is why our Waha has been kind of flat to negative here recently. Great. Thank you very much. Okay. Thank you. Our next question comes from Sunil Sibal with Seaport Global. Your line is open. Yeah. Hi. Good morning, everybody, and thanks for the time. So I wanted to start off on the NGL pipeline segment. Seems like ethane prices have been weak lately. So I was curious what kind of ethane recovery trends you're seeing on your systems. And then with Daytona kind of contributing partly for the third quarter, how should we think about volumes on the Daytona system, especially any switchovers from third-party processing plants also? Hi. This is Scott. First off, Daytona coming online gives us the ability to obviously flow on both our Grand Prix West system as well as Daytona. So it gives us some operating efficiency around just being able to split volumes between those two pipes and gives us a lot of operating leverage, as I said earlier, moving into our 30-inch pipe. When it comes to ethane, certainly ethane price is sitting around $0.18. There may be some outlying areas that would be looking at rejection-type economics. But when you look at the Waha area where gas prices are, I think pretty much most of the industry is in full recovery wherever they can, predominantly in the Permian Basin. And for us, we stay pretty much in recovery mode all the time just so that we can feed our system on all of our integrated platforms. So again, I think some of the outlying areas outside of the Permian would probably be in rejection mode just based upon where prices are. But for us, it's pretty much full tilt for us. Okay. Thanks for that. And then in the Badlands system, seems like you had a pretty sizable uptick on the crude volumes. I was curious, is that something we can expect to continue or any one-time items there? Yeah. This is Pat. We had an uptick in our activity level. We had some producers that have been waiting on permits and another producer, frankly, that hasn't been real active over the past, let's say, three or four years, that one, the activity level from that producer upticked, and secondly, the permits were granted and the wells were drilled, so we got a really nice uptick in our crude oil volumes. And our base level continues, so we expect good activity. I wouldn't say continued robust growth, but good activity level going forward on the system. Okay. Thanks for that. Okay. Thank you. I show no further questions at this time. I would now like to turn the call back over to Tristan Richardson for closing remarks. Great. Thanks, Michelle. Thank you to everyone for joining the call this morning, and we appreciate your interest in Targa Resources. This does.
