Today, the owners of Capline, a crude oil pipeline system that originates in St. James, La. and terminates in Patoka, Ill., announce a study to examine the potential commercial opportunities for future Capline operations.

This analysis is being conducted to address the expanding crude oil supply in North America and the significant changes in crude oil demand patterns. As a part of this study, a connection to the proposed Diamond Pipeline will be evaluated. Completion of the study is anticipated in the first quarter of 2015.
