ONEOK : TITLE ONEOK Reports Status of Operations Following Hurricane Harvey

TULSA, Okla., Aug. 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ONEOK, Inc. (NYSE: OKE) today announced that its Mont Belvieu, Texas, complex is operational and has not experienced significant damage from the impact of Hurricane Harvey. All ONEOK employees located in the Gulf Coast area are safe and accounted for.

Some ONEOK assets in the area are operating at reduced volumes primarily due to temporary refinery and petrochemical facility outages and restraints on its customers' ability to receive natural gas liquids (NGL) products. Currently, upstream volumes from ONEOK's producer customers have not been significantly impacted. With the help of other companies in the industry, ONEOK is working to best serve the needs of customers as NGL markets recover and return to pre-hurricane levels. As volumes and customer operations recover, ONEOK is prepared to resume normal operations at all Mont Belvieu area facilities.

'Our hearts and thoughts go out to everyone impacted by the devastating effects of Hurricane Harvey,' said Terry K. Spencer, ONEOK president and chief executive officer. 'Many ONEOK employees live and work in the areas impacted and have experienced the devastation firsthand. I'd like to thank our employees for their remarkable efforts during this difficult time and for their many hours working to keep our assets operating safely. As we work together to resume normal operations, our focus remains on the safety of our employees and their families, the safe operation of our assets and our commitment to continue operating reliably for our customers.'
