Williams Companies, Momentum Midstream and EnCap Flatrock Midstream did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\n\nThe deal would give Williams additional capacity to move gas from the Haynesville shale to U.S. Gulf Coast export terminals, the Bloomberg report said.\n\nNo final decision has been made and EnCap could still opt to retain the company, according to the report.\n\nWilliams is exploring acquiring U.S. natural gas production assets as it looks to secure supplies for its offerings to hyperscalers and data center clients, Reuters reported in February.\n\nMomentum Midstream operates around 4,000 miles (6,437 km) of pipelines, serving more than 140 customers across its network, according to the company website. It also serves 10 liquefied natural gas facilities and 26 power plants.\n\nReporting by Bipasha Dey in...",
