Williams: We make energy happen.
For more than a century, Williams has been safely building and operating pipelines and facilities to bring natural gas from where it’s produced to where it’s consumed. Now, we’re investing billions in the Northeast, supporting local communities and creating high-quality jobs. At Williams, our mission has never been more important. We enable our customers, investors, employees, and communities to maximize the opportunities created by the vastly greater supply of natural gas and natural gas products. Williams’ interstate gas pipeline and gathering & processing operations span the deepwater Gulf of Mexico to the northeastern seaboard.
Involvement in the communities where we live and work is at the heart of Williams. The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust’s mission helps us fulfill our commitment by offering great artistic and educational experiences across the Pittsburgh region. Their efforts in bringing the arts to diverse audiences are music to our ears. Good luck to all SING-OFF contestants!
