Background

Auger is a 174-mile offshore Gulf of Mexico pipeline system that transports crude from producers in eastern Garden Banks and Keathley Canyon blocks from more than 13 different production fields. Auger transports oil for producers to two crude market options: (1) the 20-inch pipeline delivers to Ship Shoal pipeline at Ship Shoal 28 for delivery to the St. James market hub (Bonito Sour crude); (2) the 12-inch pipeline delivers to Eugene Island pipeline for delivery to the Houma market hub (Eugene Island crude).

In November 2015, Shell Midstream Partners, LP acquired the Auger Pipeline System as part of an acquisition of Pecten Midstream LLC from Shell Pipeline Company LP.
