Description
As at 31 December 2025
One of the largest crude oil pipelines in the Gulf of America (by length and design capacity), 64% owned. The 2025 CHOPS expansion overhauled the Garden Banks 72 platform topside facilities, reconnected the pipeline to GB-72 and added pumps at the High Island A5 and GB-72 platforms to increase throughput, supporting Shenandoah volumes routed via the SYNC Pipeline.
