Background
The 310-mile, 20-inch-diameter Cactus Oil Pipeline delivers sweet and sour crude oil from the Permian Basin to the Plains All American Pipeline-Enterprise Products Partners Eagle Ford JV Pipeline System.[4]
In January 2017, Plains All American Pipeline announced it was expanding the capacity of the Cactus pipeline from 200,000 bpd to 390,000 bpd.[4]
Note there is evidence online that Cactus Pipeline LLC was established in 2003, but the company dissolved in 2005[5] before the construction of this pipeline, and it's unclear whether the two are related.
