Background

In July of 2018, Plains All American was considering the Cactus III, a potential project in the Permian Basin. It would involve expanding a pipeline system in the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas, which is southeast of the Permian.[1]

It would run from McCamey, Texas to Gardendale, Texas running along the Cactus Oil Pipeline and Cactus 2 Pipeline routes. Cactus 3 would add 200,000–400,000 barrels of oil per day.[1]

As of February 2022, no evidence exists for further development since it was proposed in 2018, so the pipeline is presumed to be cancelled.
