June 24 (Reuters) - Oil pipelines in the United States are undergoing a historic realignment in response to new production in the Eagle Ford development in south-central Texas, redevelopment of older production in the Permian Basin, and new flows of oil from the Midwest and Canada that have oversupplied Midwest markets.

Plains All American Pipeline LP and Delek Logistics Partners have launched an open season to gauge shipper interest in their proposed joint-venture 80,000 bpd Caddo Pipeline to move crude from Plains' terminal in Longview, Texas to Shreveport, Louisiana, where it would supply crude to area refineries and connect to Delek Logistics' pipeline system to its 83,000 bpd refinery in El Dorado, Arkansas.

The open season began on Tuesday and will last through July 23, the company said. Plains aims to start up the line in the second half of 2016.

Here is an updated list of 87 projects:
