Blue Racer Gets a B+ Rating from Fitch; Biggest Customer is Ascent

It's not often we get an inside look at the finances and customers behind a privately owned midstream (pipeline) company. Ratings giant Fitch Ratings has given us that inside look with Blue Racer Midstream, a natural gas gathering and processing pipeline company operating in southeastern Ohio and the panhandle of West Virginia. Yesterday Fitch affirmed Blue Racer's Long-Term Issuer Default Rating (IDR) at 'B+' and its $750 million senior secured revolving credit facility (what we call a line of credit) at 'BB+'. Fitch also upgraded Blue Racer's senior unsecured notes to 'BB-' from 'B+'. Blue Racer's Rating Outlook is Stable.
