Background

The pipeline originates at the Plains Cushing, Oklahoma Terminal and runs to Longview, Texas .[1] The pipeline began operating in 2017, and has a capacity of 150,000 barrels per day.[2]

On January 18, 2017, Plains All American (PAA) Pipeline completed the sale of an undivided 40% interest in a segment of the Red River Pipeline to a subsidiary of Valero Energy Partners LP for approximately US$70 million. The interest represents 60,000 barrels per day on the Hewitt segment of the pipeline, extending from Cushing, Oklahoma to Hewitt, Oklahoma near Valero's refinery in Ardmore, Oklahoma. PAA retained an undivided 60% interest in the Hewitt Segment and a 100% interest in the remaining portion of the pipeline that extends from Ardmore to Longview, Texas, where it connects with various pipelines, including PAA's newly constructed Caddo Oil Pipeline that extends to refinery markets in Northern Louisiana.[2]
