More Permian Pipelines Set to Come Online

After experiencing pressure of limited takeaway options over the last few years, the Permian is getting a much-needed boost in pipeline capacity.

In addition to the Cactus II, two more pipelines are expected to come online in the near future including:

The Gray Oak Pipeline

  • Capacity of 900,000 bbls/d
  • Jointly developed by Phillips 66 and Enbridge

EPIC Pipeline

  • Capacity of 590,000 bbls/d
  • Developed by EPIC Midstream

By year-end 2019, the Permian will have over ~1.8 million barrels per day of takeaway capacity.
