All Other
Segments below the quantitative thresholds are classified as “other.” Management has included the wholesale
propane and natural gas compression services operations in “other” for all periods presented in this report
because such operations are not material.
The following assets are held in connection with our other natural gas operations:
• We own 100% of the membership interests of Energy Transfer Group, L.L.C. (“ETG”), which owns all of
the partnership interests of Energy Transfer Technologies, Ltd. (“ETT”). ETT provides compression services
to customers engaged in the transportation of natural gas, including our other segments.

Asset Overview
Natural Gas Operations
Intrastate Transportation and Storage Segment
The following details our pipelines and storage facilities in the intrastate transportation and storage segment.
ET Fuel System
• Capacity of 5.2 Bcf/d
• Approximately 2,600 miles of natural gas pipeline
• 2 storage facilities with 12.4 Bcf of total working gas capacity
The ET Fuel System serves some of the most active drilling areas in the United States and is comprised of
intrastate natural gas pipeline and related natural gas storage facilities. With approximately 460 receipt and/or
delivery points, including interconnects with pipelines providing direct access to power plants and interconnects
with other intrastate and interstate pipelines, the ET Fuel System is strategically located near high-growth
production areas and provides access to the Waha Hub near Midland, Texas, the Katy Hub near Houston, Texas
and the Carthage Hub in East Texas, the three major natural gas trading centers in Texas. The major shippers on
our pipelines include XTO Energy, Inc. (“XTO”), EOG Resources, Inc., Chesapeake Energy Marketing, Inc.,
Encana Marketing (USA), Inc. (“Encana”) and Quicksilver Resources, Inc.
The ET Fuel System also includes our Bethel natural gas storage facility, with a working capacity of 6.4 Bcf, an
average withdrawal capacity of 300 MMcf/d and an injection capacity of 75 MMcf/d, and our Bryson natural gas
storage facility, with a working capacity of 6.0 Bcf, an average withdrawal capacity of 120 MMcf/d and an
average injection capacity of 96 MMcf/d. All of our storage capacity on the ET Fuel System is contracted to third
parties under fee-based arrangements that expire in 2011 and 2012.
In addition, the ET Fuel System is integrated with our Godley processing plant which gives us the ability to
bypass the plant when processing margins are unfavorable by blending the untreated natural gas from the North
Texas System with natural gas on the ET Fuel System while continuing to meet pipeline quality specifications.
Oasis Pipeline
• Capacity of 1.2 Bcf/d
• Approximately 600 miles of natural gas pipeline
• Connects Waha to Katy market hubs
The Oasis pipeline is primarily a 36-inch natural gas pipeline. It has bi-directional capability with approximately
1.2 Bcf/d of throughput capacity moving west-to-east and greater than 750 MMcf/d of throughput capacity
