Williams purchased 75 miles of gathering pipeline and two compressor stations from the latter company. It planned to invest $150 million more on gathering facilities to build out the assets it had acquired. The deal included a 25 year, long-term agreement for Williams to transport all of Cabot's Marcellus shale gas in northeastern Pennsylvania.
