Description: PAGP Plains GP Holdings January 08, 2026
Plains GP Holdings L.P. (NASDAQ:PAGP) is the master limited partnership that, through its operating subsidiary Plains All American Pipeline, L.P., owns and manages mid-stream assets across the United States and Canada. The business is split into two primary segments-Crude Oil and Natural Gas Liquids (NGLs)-and it provides gathering, transportation (via pipelines, trucks, barges, and rail), terminalling, storage, and processing services for both product streams.
Key operational metrics (as of Q4 2023) include roughly 13,500 miles of crude-oil pipelines and 2.2 billion gallons per day of NGL processing capacity, with utilization rates hovering near 85 % for oil pipelines and 78 % for NGL fractionation facilities. The company generated $1.9 billion in operating cash flow in 2023, driven largely by a $12 billion increase in U.S. crude production and sustained demand for ethane-rich NGLs in petrochemical feedstocks.
Sector-level drivers that materially affect Plains GP Holdings are (1) the continued growth of U.S. shale output, which expands feedstock volumes for midstream transport; (2) tightening pipeline capacity constraints in key basins such as Permian and Bakken, which can lift fee-based revenue per barrel; and (3) regulatory risk surrounding pipeline approvals, which introduces upside volatility to project pipelines and downstream storage demand.
