About Company

West Shore Pipe Line Company is a common carrier petroleum pipeline system that originates in the Chicago area and extends north to Granville, Wisconsin and west and then north to Madison Wisconsin. The 650 mile pipeline system transports refined petroleum products to markets in northern Illinois and Wisconsin from the greater Chicago area. The operation and ownership of the original West Shore Pipe Line was combined with the former Badger pipeline system in 1998.

811 Day is observed every August 11th to remind us to call 811 prior to any digging project. 811 is the national number designated by the Federal Communications Commission to help protect homeowners and professional excavators from unintentionally hitting underground utility lines while working on digging projects – large and small. It is a FREE service. If you are planning to dig anywhere, you must call 811 prior to digging.

System Overview

West Shore Pipe Line Company transports liquid petroleum products like gasoline, diesel fuel, blendstocks, and liquid natural gasolines from refineries and terminals in the Chicago area to terminals and other pipelines in Illinois and Wisconsin. West Shore Pipe Line Company never owns the products we transport. The products are moved through the pipeline in batches via pump stations along the pipeline. The products are measured when they enter the system and when they leave the system providing a ticket for each customer of how much product was moved from point to point.  West Shore Pipe Line Company pipeline system is monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year by qualified pipeline Controllers in our Operations Control Center. The Controller has the responsibility to manage the system operation, respond to alarms, and remotely shutdown the pipeline if an abnormal operation occurs or for any reason.  West Shore Pipe Line Company can receive from and deliver to the following refineries, pipelines and terminals

The Pipeline Transportation System

Interstate pipelines deliver over 12.9 billion barrels (542 billion gallons) of petroleum products each year. About 59% of the petroleum products transport by pipeline is crude oil (7.6 billion barrels) and the remainder (5.3 billion barrels) is in the form of refined petroleum products.* Crude oil is the raw material for making petroleum products. Crude oil pipelines transport crude oil from onshore and offshore production wells and from coastal shipping terminals to refineries and chemical plants. At refineries, the oil is processed into refined products such as gasoline, heating oil, diesel, and oil feed stocks. At chemical plants, the oil feed is processed into resins, plastics, chemicals and agricultural products. These base products are then manufactured into hundreds of products used in and around the home. Pipelines also handle the second part of the transportation journey – transporting the refined products to regional and local distributions centers. At the distribution centers, the products are loaded on to tanker trucks for further transportation to airports, service centers, and to your home. * Source – American Association of Oil Pipelines (ADPL).
