Plains All American Pipeline and Plains GP Holdings Provide Updated Capital Spending Guidance for 2026 HOUSTON, June 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (Nasdaq: PAA) and Plains GP Holdings (Nasdaq: PAGP) (collectively, “Plains”) are providing an update to capital spending guidance for 2026. Plains expects growth capital spending to increase from approximately $350 million to a range of $400 to $450 million net to PAA in 2026. Maintenance capital is expected to remain approximately $185 million net to PAA this year.

The increased budget is underpinned by multiple growth projects across our Permian long-haul, Canadian gathering, and Permian gathering businesses. We also anticipate investing in our broader Permian system to accommodate additional gathering volumes, particularly in the New Mexico Delaware Basin area. These projects are expected to generate high returns and contribute to our EBITDA profile in 2027. A more comprehensive project update will be provided in connection with our earnings call in August.

“The oil macro environment has improved significantly since the beginning of the year, and customer activity and interest has allowed us to advance several high return projects. We believe tightened global crude oil supply and demand balances have increased demand for North American hydrocarbons. Our company is uniquely positioned to facilitate this growth with approximately 1.2 million barrels a day of crude oil purchases and direct connectivity to global export markets. The macro backdrop should result in an uplift in the value of energy infrastructure assets and support our continued commitment to increase return of capital to unitholders,” said Willie Chiang, Chairman, CEO and President.
