Quicksilver Gas Services Expands 2008 Capital Budget

FORT WORTH, TEXAS, (September 2, 2008) – Quicksilver Gas Services LP (NYSE Arca: KGS) announced that its board of directors has unanimously approved an increase of approximately $65 million to its 2008 capital budget to further expand and upgrade the company’s gathering and processing network.  In addition, the board approved approximately $40 million for the purchase of the Lake Arlington dry gathering system from Quicksilver Resources Inc. (NYSE: KWK).

The 2008 capital budget now totals $185 million and includes approximately $39 million for the construction of pipelines and gathering systems, approximately $26 million for compression, approximately $80 million associated with the construction of a third natural gas processing plant and approximately $40 million for the purchase of the Lake Arlington dry gathering system.

“Rapid demand growth for our gathering and processing services has provided incentives to expand and further upgrade our system at a faster rate than previously anticipated,” said Thomas (Toby) Darden, Quicksilver Gas Services president and chief executive officer.  “We are adding compression to our system to decrease line pressures and enable greater throughput to the existing gathering system.  We are also fast-tracking start-up of the first phase of our third processing plant to become operational by year end.”

Separately, Quicksilver Resources’ board of directors has approved additional pipeline-related capital expenditures associated with the Fort Worth Basin of approximately $20 million for 2008.  Quicksilver Gas Services will operate these assets on behalf of Quicksilver Resources and expects to acquire these assets over time.
