HOUSTON, July 30 (Reuters) - All but 20,000 barrels of oil per day (bpd) flowing through Eugene Island pipeline before a leak shut it down has been rerouted, a spokeswoman for operator Shell Pipeline Co (RDSa.L) said late Thursday.

"The Eugene Island system was moving about 100,000 bpd at the time of the incident (Saturday)," she said. "We have been able to divert 80,000 bpd through other pipeline systems." (Reporting by Bruce Nichols; Editing by Gary Hill)
