FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
Plains All American Pipeline, L.P.
Reports Strong 2006 Results
 
(Houston — February 22, 2007) Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. (NYSE: PAA) today reported net income of $46.0 million, or $0.36 per diluted limited partner unit, for the fourth quarter 2006 and net income of $285.1 million, or $2.88 per diluted limited partner unit, for the full year 2006. Net income for the fourth quarter 2005 was $53.7 million, or $0.64 per diluted limited partner unit, and net income for the full year 2005 was $217.8 million or $2.72 per diluted unit. Comparisons with prior year periods were impacted by selected items impacting comparability in each period. (See table entitled “Selected items impacting comparability” below.)
 
The Partnership reported earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) of $111.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, which represents an increase of 18% compared with EBITDA of $94.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2005. EBITDA for the full year 2006 was $470.2 million, an increase of 30% over 2005 reported EBITDA of $360.7 million. All reported results include the effect of the merger with Pacific Energy Partners, L.P., from the closing date of November 15, 2006. (See the section of this release entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the attached tables for discussion of EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures, and reconciliations of such measures to the comparable GAAP measures.)
 
“2006 was a very active, productive and rewarding year for the Partnership,” said Greg L. Armstrong, Chairman and CEO of Plains All American. “We achieved or exceeded each of our stated goals, executed a record level of internal growth projects and completed the largest acquisition in Partnership history. In addition, we completed the transformation from an entity that in 2001 was primarily dependent on acquisitions for growth, to one that has a high-quality backlog of expansion projects across a diversified and complementary suite of businesses, which we expect to fuel our growth for the next several years, irrespective of future acquisitions.”
 
Armstrong also noted that Plains All American invested nearly $3.4 billion during the year, increased distributions paid to unitholders by 11.5% and, as a result of its disciplined and proactive financing activities, exited 2006 with a strong balance sheet and capital structure and the highest level of liquidity in its history.
 
Reported results include the impact of various items that affect comparability between reporting periods. Adjusted results exclude selected items impacting comparability, as further described in the table below. Accordingly, the Partnership’s fourth quarter 2006 adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA were $80.8 million, $0.72 and $146.3 million, respectively. The Partnership’s fourth quarter 2005 adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA were $62.6 million, $0.75 and $103 million, respectively. On a comparable basis, fourth quarter 2006 adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA increased 29% and 42%, respectively, over the corresponding metrics for the fourth quarter 2005, while adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit decreased approximately 4% between the periods.

The Partnership’s adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2006 were $325.9 million, $3.50 and $511 million, respectively. These same metrics for 2005 were $264.9 million, $3.47 and $407.8 million, respectively. On a comparative basis, 2006 adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted limited partner unit and adjusted EBITDA increased 23%, 1% and 25%, respectively, over 2005. Armstrong also noted that the Partnership met or exceeded the guidance that it provided via Form 8-K on November 2, 2006 for adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted unit and adjusted EBITDA.
 
The following table summarizes selected items that the Partnership believes impact comparability of financial results between reporting periods:

  $ (0.36 )   $ (0.11 )   $ (0.62 )   $ (0.75 )
 
 
(1) During the first quarter of 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123(R)(revised) “Share Based Payment,” which requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment trasactions be recognized in the financial statements at fair value. The cumulative effect adjustment represents a decrease to our LTIP life-to-date accrued expense and related liability, and therefore resulted in a non-cash gain of $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2006.
 
(2) In periods when the Partnership’s net income exceeds the cash distribution paid during such periods the application of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 03-06: “Participating Securities and the Two — Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128” (“EITF 03-06”) does not impact the partnership’s aggregate net income or EBITDA, but does reduce the Partnership’s net income per limited partner unit. The application of EITF 03-06 negatively impacted basic and diluted earnings per limited partner unit by approximately $0.13 and $0.10 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

(2) We have adopted EITF 04-13, effective April 1, 2006, which impacts the comparability of our revenues. Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2005 include buy/sell transactions of $4.5 billion and the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 include buy/sell transactions of $4.8 billion and $16.3 billion, respectively. All such amounts are included in the Marketing segment.

(3) Segment general and administrative (G&A) expenses reflect direct costs attributable to each segment and an allocation of other expenses to the segments based on management’s assessment of the business activities for that period. The proportional allocations by segment require judgement by management and may be adjusted in the future based on the business activities that exist during each period.
 
(4) Amounts related to SFAS 133 are included in revenues and impact segment profit. The SFAS 133 mark-to-market adjustment is primarily based upon crude oil prices (and to a lesser extent, other product prices) at the end of the period and is related to the non-effective portion of our cash flow hedges, as well as certain derivative contracts that do not qualify under SFAS 133 as cash flow hedges. The net gain or loss related to these derivative instruments is principally offset by physical positions in future periods.
 
(5) Losses on foreign currency revaluation are included in the Marketing segment.
 
Excluding selected items impacting comparability, segment profit from Transportation operations in the fourth quarter of 2006 was $62.9 million representing a 41% increase over fourth quarter 2005 results of $44.5 million. For the full 2006 year, adjusted segment profit for Transportation operations was $221.0 million which is a 22% increase as compared with full year 2005 results of $181.1. Transportation volumes for the fourth quarter of 2006 were approximately 2.5 million barrels per day versus 1.8 million barrels per day in the 2005 quarter.
 
Fourth quarter and full year 2006 Facilities operations adjusted segment profit of $17.3 million and $40.4 million represent respective increases of 246% and 132% over comparable 2005 metrics.
 
Marketing operations adjusted segment profit of $65.8 million and $248.5 million for the fourth quarter and full year 2006 represent increases of 24% and 19%, respectively, over corresponding metrics for 2005.
 
The Partnership’s basic weighted average units outstanding for the fourth quarter 2006 totaled 93.2 million (94.3 million diluted) as compared to 73.7 million (75.3 million diluted) in last year’s fourth quarter. At December 31, 2006, the Partnership had approximately 109.4 million units outstanding, long-term debt of approximately $2.6 billion and a long-term debt-to-total capitalization ratio of 47%.
 
On February 14, 2007, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $0.80 per unit ($3.20 per unit on an annualized basis) on its outstanding limited partner units. The distribution represents an increase of approximately 16.4% over the distribution paid in February 2006 and approximately 6.7% over the distribution paid in November 2006. This represents the 11th consecutive increase in quarterly distributions for the Partnership and the 18th increase in the last twenty-four quarters.
 
The Partnership will furnish a current report on Form 8-K, which will include material in this press release and financial and operational guidance for the first quarter and full year 2007. A copy of the Form 8-K will be available on the Partnership’s website at www.paalp.com.
 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
In this release, the Partnership’s EBITDA disclosure is not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not intended to be used in lieu of GAAP presentations of net income or cash flows from operating activities. EBITDA is presented because we believe it provides additional information with respect to both the performance of our fundamental business activities as well as our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. We also believe that debt holders commonly use EBITDA to analyze Partnership performance. In addition, we present selected items that impact the comparability of our operating results as additional information that may be helpful to your understanding of our financial results. We consider an understanding of these selected items impacting comparability to be material to our evaluation of our operating results and prospects. Although we present selected items that we consider in evaluating our performance, you should also be aware that the items presented do not represent all items that affect comparability between the periods presented. Variations in our operating results are also caused by changes in volumes, prices, exchange rates, mechanical interruptions, acquisitions and numerous other factors. These types of variations are not separately identified in this release, but will be discussed in management’s discussion and analysis of operating results in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
