Plains All American announces new cactus pipeline from McCamey to Gardendale, Texas

Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. today announced it is constructing the Cactus Pipeline, a new 310-mile,  20-inch crude oil pipeline from McCamey to Gardendale, Texas. The Cactus  Pipeline is expected to be placed into service in the first quarter of 2015. The Partnership has entered into a letter of intent with a third party regarding a long-term commitment for a majority of the pipeline's capacity and is in discussions with several potential shippers for the remaining capacity. The total project investment is expected to range from $350 million to $375 million.

The pipeline is expected to transport both sweet and sour crude oil from the Permian Basin to the PAA/Enterprise Products Partners Eagle Ford Joint Venture (Eagle Ford JV) Pipeline. The Eagle Ford JV Pipeline directly serves the Three Rivers and Corpus Christi markets and can supply the Houston-area market through a connection to the Enterprise South Texas Crude Oil Pipeline. Crude oil delivered on Cactus will have access to rail loading capacity at PAA's Gardendale station and accessto the Eagle Ford JV barge dock facility in the Corpus Christi area. The Cactus Pipeline will initially be designed to provide approximately 200,000 barrels-per-day of capacity and can be increased as demand warrants.
