Over the years, United Gas Pipe Line was acquired by a number of companies: Pennzoil (1965), MidCon Corporation (1986), LaSalle Energy Corporation (1987) and Koch Industries (1992). In August 1993, the pipeline was renamed Koch Gateway Pipeline, and in 2001, Koch contributed Koch Gateway Pipeline to a joint venture with Entergy Corporation, re-christening the pipeline as Gulf South Pipeline Company. On December 29, 2004, Loews Corporation purchased Gulf South Pipeline.[3]
