Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Aaron Levitt]

  When it comes to natural gas, Williams Partners (WPZ) is simply one of the biggest players. The firm is one of the leading midstream players in the prolific Marcellus shale. That dominance has WPZs network of pipelines carrying roughly 14% of all the natural gas consumed in the U.S.

  Large MLPs with geographically diversified operations will fare better because they can shift assets around and make sure that all their distribution-paying subsidiaries meet the payroll, so to speak. Here are the seven largest MLPs by market cap:

  Enterprise Product Partners LP (NYSE: EPD) – $61.23 billion Kinder Morgan Energy Partners LP (NYSE: KMP) – $35.13 billion Williams Partners LP (NYSE: WPZ) – $21.95 billion Plains All American Pipeline LP (NYSE: PAA) – $19.3 bill! ion Energy Transfer Partners LP (NYSE: ETP) – $17.78 billion Magellan Midstream Partners LP (NYSE: MMP) – $15.52 billion Oneok Partners LP (NYSE: OKS) – $12.95 billion

  Size is not the only thing that matters, but size can help overcome some of the cash flow issues these MLPs face. The differentiating factor is a companys distribution coverage ratio which is the cash the MLP has to distribute to its limited partners divided by its maintenance capex and interest on the companys debt. Anything number larger than 1 is solid.
