LWM is led by Michael Anderson, an executive with significant experience with public and private water infrastructure and energy midstream companies and is supported by a growing team of 19 full-time employees.

LWM has a diverse customer base that is in active development on some of the most prolific oil and gas acreage in the United States, which is further supported by multiple long-term commitments and acreage dedications to LWM. LWM is focused on providing reliable, safe and environmentally conscious solutions to its growing producer customer base and continuing to work with its partners to accretively grow its water infrastructure footprint.
Frost Cochran, Post Oak managing director commented, “We are thrilled to be able to build on our existing knowledge and relationships in the Permian to support LWM in the next critical phase of infrastructure buildout for the basin.” He continued, “Through our upstream investments in the Permian and our crude infrastructure buildout at Oryx Midsteam, we recognized the immediate and growing need for integrated water infrastructure and are fortunate to be partnering with the experienced executives at LWM.”
Michael Anderson, LWM’s CEO added, “The LWM team is looking forward to further growth with Post Oak, Genesis Park, our landowner partners and our customers throughout the next phase of oilfield water management.”
