The U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration issued an emergency special permit for segments 324 and 325 of the interstate Santa Ynez Pipeline System, approving Sable Offshore's enhanced integrity management practices and setting operational conditions. It is a step toward restarting the onshore transportation that has kept Sable's restarted Santa Ynez Unit oil in storage rather than on sale.

Sable Offshore resumed shipping crude from Las Flores Canyon to Pentland Station through the Santa Ynez Pipeline System on March 14, 2026, complying with a Defense Production Act order issued by Energy Secretary Chris Wright. The company expects first sales by April 1, 2026 at a gross oil rate of 50,000 Bbls/d, which it says would raise domestic crude supply into the California market by about 17%.
