Two U.S. shale producers have challenged an energy pipeline operator's prop...
Houston-based Plains this month proposed charging shippers a 5 cents per barrel fee on its 670,000 barrel-per-day Cactus II pipeline next April to offset higher construction costs due to the steel tariffs.
Plains last year estimated the steel tariff would add $40 million to its costs for the $1.1 billion pipeline, which runs 550 miles from the Permian basin of West Texas and New Mexico, the top U.S. shale field, to the U.S. Gulf Coast. Plains Chief Executive Officer Willie Chiang said in a conference call the company would rebate the fee to shippers if the Commerce Department approved its exemption request.
