(“First Reserve”), First Reserve GP X, L.P. (“GP X, L.P.”), and First Reserve Pacific Holdings AIV, L.P. (“Holdings LP”, and collectively with First Reserve and GP X, L.P., the “Reporting Persons”), and relates to the common units representing limited partners interests (“Common Units”) of Pacific Energy Partners, L.P. (the “Issuer”) into which subordinated units representing limited partners interests of the Issuer (“Subordinated Units”) are convertible pursuant to the terms set forth in the Issuer’s First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended. That Schedule 13D is hereby amended as set forth below.
ITEM 2.    IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.
Item 2 is hereby amended by replacing the first three paragraphs with the following language:
“This Amendment is being filed jointly by the Reporting Persons to report the indirect acquisition by the Reporting Persons of Common Units and of Common Units issuable upon the conversion of Subordinated Units.
First Reserve is the general partner of GP X. GP X is the general partner of Holdings LP. Following the transaction that is the subject of this Amendment, Holdings LP directly owns a 40.94% limited partner interest in LB Pacific, LP (“LB LP”) and a 40.98% membership interest in LB Pacific GP, LLC (“LB LLC”).
The Common Units of the Issuer that are the subject of this Schedule 13D (both in the form of outstanding Common Units and outstanding Subordinated Units convertible into Common Units) are directly owned by LB LP. LB LLC is the sole general partner of LB LP. LB LP is the sole limited partner of Pacific Energy GP, LP, which is the sole general partner of the Issuer. LB LP is also the sole owner of Pacific Energy Management, LLC, which is the sole general partner of Pacific Energy GP, LP.”
The remaining paragraphs of Item 2 are unchanged.
ITEM 3.    SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
     Item 3 is hereby amended to add the following paragraph at the end of Item 3:
          “Pursuant to the terms set forth in a Purchase Agreement dated May 11, 2006 (the “Transaction Date”) between Holdings LP and LB I Group, Inc. (“LB I”), Holdings LP purchased from LB I, and LB I sold to Holdings LP, approximately 10.9% of the respective limited partnership interests and membership interests of LB LP and LB LLC (collectively, the “2006 Acquired Interests”) for an aggregate purchase price of $29.25 million. Holdings LP financed the purchase price for the 2006 Acquired Interests through funds contributed by its limited partners, the source of which was capital contributions made to such limited partners by the limited partners and general partner of First Reserve Fund X, L.P. As of the Transaction Date, LB LP owned 2,616,250 Common Units and 7,848,750 Subordinated Units of the Issuer.”

ITEM 4.    PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
     Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following paragraph at the end of Item 4:
          “Pursuant to the terms set forth in a Purchase Agreement dated May 11, 2006 between Holdings LP and LB I Group, Inc., Holdings LP purchased from LB I, and LB I sold to Holdings LP, approximately 10.9% of the respective limited partnership interests and membership interests of LB LP and LB LLC for an aggregate purchase price of $29.25 million. Following that transaction, Holdings LP directly owns a 40.94% limited partner interest in LB LP and a 40.98% membership interest in LB LLC.”
     The remaining paragraphs of Item 4 are unchanged.
ITEM 5.    INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
     Item 5 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language:
(a) — (b)           As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons do not directly own any securities of the Issuer. First Reserve is the general partner of GP X. GP X is the general partner of Holdings LP. Following the transaction that is the subject of this amendment, Holdings LP directly owns a 40.94% limited partner interest in LB LP and a 40.98% membership interest in LB LLC. LB LLC is the sole general partner of LB LP, and owns a 0.1% general partner interest in LB LP. LB LP is the sole limited partner of Pacific Energy GP, LP, which is the sole general partner of the Issuer. LB LP is also the sole owner of Pacific Energy Management, LLC, which is the sole general partner of Pacific Energy GP, LP.
          The Common Units of the Issuer that are the subject of this Schedule 13D, as amended, are directly owned by LB LP and indirectly beneficially owned by LB LLC. As of the Transaction Date and the date hereof, LB LP directly owns 2,616,250 Common Units and also directly owns 7,848,750 Subordinated Units that are convertible into Common Units in the manner described in Item 3. As a result of the ownership structure noted above and as further described in Item 3, the Reporting Persons may each be deemed to possess shared voting and dispositive powers with respect to approximately 40.98% of the Common Units and the Subordinated Units of the Issuer directly held by LB LP. This percentage in the aggregate equates to the Reporting Persons beneficially owning 4,288,455 Common Units, consisting of 1,072,114 Common Units and 3,216,341 Subordinated Units convertible into Common Units. These 4,288,455 Common Units represent approximately 12.4% of the Common Units of the Issuer outstanding as of the date hereof, calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1) based on the 31,457,782 Common Units of the Issuer outstanding as of April 30, 2006 as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, filed on May 10, 2006, and the 3,216,341 Subordinated Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
(c) Other than the transaction described in Item 4, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the Common Units or the Subordinated Units during the past sixty days.
(d) To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no person or persons other than the Reporting Persons, the limited partners of Holdings LP, and the limited partners of First Reserve Fund X, L.P. have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the power to direct the receipt of proceeds of the sale of the Common Units or the Subordinated Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
