Committed information for Line 1 will be available on Thursday, and for Line 20, on Wednesday, the company said.
Colonial's Line 1, with a capacity of 1.2 million barrels per day, runs from Houston to Greensboro, North Carolina. The current allocation is for the pipeline segment north of Collins, Mississippi.
Line 20 carries distillates from Atlanta to Nashville, Tennessee.
The company generally announces allocations when nominations, or requests for space to ship petroleum products on its lines, exceed its ability to meet the five-day lifting cycle.
The cycles are five-day periods when the company pumps a sequence of in-season products. It pumps the same sequence of products every five days.
Colonial connects U.S. Gulf Coast refineries with markets across the southern and eastern United States through more than 5,500 miles (8,850 km) of its pipeline system, delivering gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and other refined products.
