Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsPhillips 66 Partners LP
 
Note 1—Business and BasisDescription of Presentationthe Business
Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise indicates, all references to “Phillips 66 Partners,” “the Partnership,” “us,” “our,” “we,” or similar expressions refer to Phillips 66 Partners LP, including its consolidated subsidiaries. References to Phillips 66 may refer to Phillips 66 and/or its subsidiaries, depending on the context. References to our “General Partner” refer to Phillips 66 Partners GP LLC, and references to Phillips 66 PDI refer to Phillips 66 Project Development Inc., the Phillips 66 subsidiary that holds a limited partner interest in us.us and wholly owns our General Partner.
Description of the Business
We are a growth-oriented master limited partnership formed to own, operate, develop and acquire primarily fee-based midstream assets. Our operations consist of crude oil, refined petroleum products and natural gas liquids (NGL) pipelines, terminals and other transportation, and midstream assets. Our common units trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol PSXP.

Our assets consist of crude oil, refined petroleum products and NGL transportation,terminaling, processing terminaling and storage systems, as well as an NGL fractionator.assets. We conduct our operations through both wholly owned and joint-venturejoint venture operations. The majority of our wholly owned assets are associated with, and are integral to the operation of, nine of Phillips 66’s owned or joint-venturejoint venture refineries.

We primarily generate revenue by providing fee-based transportation, terminaling, processing, terminaling, storage and NGL fractionation services to Phillips 66 and other customers. Our equity affiliates primarily generate revenue from transporting and terminaling NGL,crude oil, refined petroleum products and crude oil.NGL. Since we do not own any of the NGL, crude oil, and refined petroleum products and NGL we handle and do not engage in the trading of NGL, crude oil, and refined petroleum products and NGL, we have limited direct exposure to risks associated with fluctuating commodity prices, although these risks indirectly influence our activities and results of operations over the long term.

Basis of Presentation
We have acquired assets from Phillips 66 that were considered transfers of businesses between entities under common control. This required the transactions to be accounted for as if the transfers had occurred at the beginning of the transfer period, with prior periods retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements and related notes have been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results and financial position of these acquired businesses prior to the effective date of each acquisition. We refer to these pre-acquisition operations as those of our “Predecessors.”

The combined financial statements of our Predecessors were derived from the accounting records of Phillips 66 and reflect the combined historical results of operations, financial position and cash flows of our Predecessors as if such businesses had been combined for all periods presented.

All intercompany transactions and accounts of our Predecessors have been eliminated. The assets and liabilities of our Predecessors in these financial statements have been reflected on a historical cost basis because the transfer of the Predecessors to us took place within the Phillips 66 consolidated group. The consolidated statement of income also includes expense allocations for certain functions performed by Phillips 66, including operational support services such as engineering and logistics and allocations of general corporate expenses related to executive oversight, accounting, treasury, tax, legal, information technology and procurement. These allocations were based primarily on relative carrying values of properties, plants and equipment (PP&E) and equity-method investments, or number of terminals and pipeline miles, and secondarily on activity-based cost allocations. Our management believes the assumptions underlying the allocation of expenses from Phillips 66 are reasonable. Nevertheless, the financial results of our Predecessors may not include all of the actual expenses that would have been incurred had our Predecessors been a stand-alone publicly traded partnership during the periods presented.



Note 2—Interim Financial Information

The unaudited interim financial information presented in the financial statements included in this report is unauditedprepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and includes all known accruals and adjustments necessary, in the opinion of management, for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Unless otherwise specified, all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements included in this report. Therefore, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our 20162018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain prior period financial information has been recast to reflect the current year’s presentation.


Note 3—Changes in Accounting Principles

Effective January 1, 2017,2019, we early adoptedelected to adopt Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-04, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 350)326): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which eliminatesamends the second step fromimpairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the goodwill impairment test. Under the revised test, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment chargeincurred loss methodology for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This ASU is applied prospectively to goodwill impairment tests performed on or after January 1, 2017.

Effective January 1, 2017, we early adopted ASU No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash.” The new update changes the classificationfinancial instruments and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows.off-balance sheet credit exposures. The amendment requires thatentities to consider a statementbroader range of cash flows explaininformation to estimate expected credit losses, which may result in earlier recognition of losses. The adoption of the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. Adoption of this ASU on a retrospective basis did not impact our financial statements.

Effective January 1, 2017, we early adopted ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” The new update clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments should be presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. In addition, the new update clarifies that when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows and cannot be separated, classification will depend on the predominant source or use. Adoption of this ASU on a retrospective basis did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” using the modified retrospective transition method. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for all operating leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will continue to be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the consolidated income statement.

We elected the package of practical expedients that allowed us to carry forward the determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease and lease classification, as well as our accounting for initial direct costs for existing contracts. We recorded a noncash cumulative effect adjustment to our opening consolidated balance sheet as of January

1, 2019, to record an aggregate operating lease ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability of $45 million. See Note 5—Lease Assets and Liabilities, for the new lease disclosures required by this ASU for lessees.

Effective for periods after January 1, 2019, we elected to account for lease and service elements of contracts classified as leases on a combined basis under the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02, except for leases of processing-type assets, which contain non-ratable fees related to turnaround activity. For these types of leases, we continued to separate the lease and service elements based on relative standalone prices and applied the new lease standard to the lease element and the revenue standard to the service element. We recorded a noncash cumulative effect adjustment of $1 million to decrease our opening equity balance as of January 1, 2019. See Note 4—Operating Revenues, for additional impacts of adopting this ASU, including new lease disclosures required for lessors.


Note 4—AcquisitionsOperating Revenues

River Parish Acquisition
In November 2016, we acquired the River Parish NGL System, a non-affiliated party’s NGL logistics assets located in southeast Louisiana, consisting of pipelinesOperating revenues are primarily generated from long-term pipeline transportation, terminaling, storage, processing and fractionation lease and service agreements, mainly with Phillips 66. These agreements typically include escalation clauses to adjust transportation tariffs and terminaling and storage caverns connecting multiple fractionation facilities, refineriesfees to reflect changes in price indices. In addition, most of these agreements contain renewal options, which typically require the mutual consent of both our customers and us.
Total operating revenues disaggregated by asset type were as follows:

The majority of our agreements with Phillips 66 are considered operating leases under GAAP. For reporting periods prior to our adoption of the new lease accounting standard, ASU No. 2016-02, as of January 1, 2019, the lease and service elements included in these contracts were separated with the lease element recognized in accordance with the existing lease accounting standard and the service element recognized in accordance with the revenue accounting standard. Effective for periods after January 1, 2019, we elected to account for lease and service elements of contracts classified as leases on a petrochemical facility. Atcombined basis under the acquisition date,provisions of ASU No. 2016-02, except for leases of processing-type assets, which contain non-ratable fees related to turnaround activity.

During 2016, we completed three acquisitions thatTotal operating revenues disaggregated by lease and service revenues were considered transfers of businesses between entities under common control, and therefore the related acquired assets were transferred at historical carrying value. Because these acquisitions were common control transactions in which we acquired businesses, our historical financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted as if we owned the acquired assets for all periods presented.follows:

Initial Fractionator Acquisition. In February 2016, we entered into a Contribution, Conveyance and Assumption Agreement (CCAA) with subsidiaries ofWe bill our customers, mainly Phillips 66, to acquireunder our lease and service contracts generally on a 25 percent controlling interest in Phillips 66 Sweeny Frac LLC (Sweeny Frac LLC) for total consideration of $236 million (the Initial Fractionator Acquisition). Total consideration consisted of the assumption of a $212 million note payable to a subsidiary of Phillips 66 and the issuance of 412,823 common units to Phillips 66 PDI and 8,425 general partner units to our General Partner to maintain its 2 percent general partner interest. The Initial Fractionator Acquisition closed in March 2016.monthly basis.

Subsequent Fractionator Acquisition.In May 2016, we entered into a CCAA with subsidiaries of Phillips 66 to acquire the remaining 75 percent interest in Sweeny Frac LLC and 100 percent of the Standish Pipeline for total consideration of $775 million (the Subsequent Fractionator Acquisition). Total consideration consisted of the assumption of $675 million of notes payable to a subsidiary of Phillips 66 and the issuance of 1,400,922 common units to Phillips 66 PDI and 286,753 general partner units to our General Partner to maintain its 2 percent general partner interest in us after also taking into account the public offering we completed in May 2016. The Subsequent Fractionator Acquisition closed in May 2016.

Eagle Acquisition
In October 2016, we entered into a CCAA with subsidiaries of Phillips 66 to acquire certain pipeline and terminal assets supporting four Phillips 66-operated refineries (the Eagle Acquisition). We paid Phillips 66 total consideration of $1,305 million, consisting of $1,109 million in cash and the issuance of 3,884,237 common units to Phillips 66 PDI and 208,783 general partner units to our General Partner to maintain its 2 percent general partner interest. The Eagle Acquisition closed in October 2016.

Deferred Revenues
Our deferred revenues represent payments received from our customers, mainly Phillips 66, in advance of the period in which lease and service contract performance obligations have been fulfilled. The majority of our deferred revenues relate to a tolling agreement and a storage agreement that are classified as leases. The remainder of our deferred revenues relate to lease and service agreements that contain minimum volume commitments with recovery provisions. Our deferred revenues are recorded in the “Deferred revenues” and “Other liabilities” lines on our consolidated balance sheet.

For the remaining service performance obligations, we applied the exemption for variable prices allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer distinct services as part of a performance obligation.


Note 5—Lease Assets and Liabilities

We have agreements with Phillips 66 to lease land underlying or associated with certain of our assets that are classified as operating leases. Due to the economic infeasibility of canceling these leases, we consider them non-cancellable. Certain leases include escalation clauses for adjusting rental payments to reflect changes in price indices. There are no significant restrictions imposed on us in our lease agreements with regards to distribution payments, asset dispositions or borrowing ability.
Effective with our implementation of ASU No. 2016-02, we elected to discount lease obligations using our incremental borrowing rate. For all leases, we elected the practical expedient to not separate service and lease costs. Our right-of-way agreements in effect prior to January 1, 2019, were not accounted for as leases as they were not initially determined

to be leases at their commencement dates. However, modifications to these agreements or new agreements will be assessed and accounted for accordingly under ASU No. 2016-02. For short-term leases, which are leases that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that is reasonably certain to exercise, we elected to not recognize the ROU asset and corresponding lease liability on our consolidated balance sheet.

Operating lease ROU assets are recorded in the “Other assets” line and lease liabilities are recorded in the “Other current liabilities” and “Other liabilities” lines on our consolidated balance sheet. At March 31, 2019, the total operating lease ROU asset was $45 million.
Future minimum lease payments and recorded short- and long-term lease liabilities at March 31, 2019, for operating leases were:

Note 6—Properties, PlantsGray Oak
In April 2018, we entered into a Purchase and EquipmentSale Agreement with Phillips 66 PDI to acquire its 100% interest in Gray Oak Holdings LLC (Holdings LLC), a limited liability company that, at that time, owned a 100% interest in Gray Oak. Gray Oak is developing and constructing the Gray Oak Pipeline system which, upon completion, will provide crude oil transportation from the Permian and Eagle Ford to destinations in Corpus Christi, Texas, and the Sweeny, Texas, area, including the Phillips 66 Sweeny Refinery. The pipeline system is anticipated to be in service by the end of 2019. We accounted for the acquisition of Holdings LLC as an acquisition of assets under common control accounting. Also in April 2018, a co-venturer acquired a 25% interest in Gray Oak, along with sufficient voting rights over key governance provisions such that we no longer could assert control over Gray Oak. As a result, we (through our consolidated subsidiary Holdings LLC) began using the equity method of accounting for our investment in Gray Oak at that time.

OurIn December 2018, a third party exercised its option to acquire a 35% interest in Holdings LLC. Because Holdings LLC’s sole asset was its 75% ownership interest in Gray Oak, which is considered a financial asset, and because certain restrictions were placed on the third party’s ability to transfer or sell its interest in Holdings LLC during the construction of the Gray Oak Pipeline, the legal sale of the 35% interest did not qualify as a sale under GAAP. Rather, the third party’s cash contributions to Holdings LLC in 2019 to fund its share of previously incurred and future construction costs plus a premium to us are reflected as a long-term obligation in the “Obligation from equity interest transfer” line on our consolidated balance sheet and financing cash inflows in the “Proceeds from equity interest transfer” line on our consolidated statement of cash flows. After construction of the Gray Oak Pipeline is completed, these restrictions expire, and the sale will be recognized under GAAP. We will continue to control and consolidate Holdings LLC after sale recognition, and therefore the third party’s 35% interest will be recharacterized from a long-term obligation to a noncontrolling interest on our consolidated balance sheet at that time. Also at that time, the premium paid will be recharacterized from a long-term obligation to a gain in our consolidated statement of income. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the third party contributed an aggregate of $341 million into Holdings LLC, which Holdings LLC used to fund its portion of Gray Oak’s cash calls.

In February 2019, Holdings LLC transferred a 10% interest in Gray Oak to a third party that exercised a purchase option for proceeds of $81 million. This transfer was accounted for as a sale and resulted in a decrease in Holdings LLC’s ownership interest in Gray Oak from 75% to 65% and the recognition of an immaterial gain. The proceeds received from this sale are reflected as an investing cash inflow in the “Proceeds from sale of equity interest” line on our consolidated statement of cash flows. At March 31, 2019, our effective ownership interest in the Gray Oak Pipeline system was 42.25%.

Gray Oak is considered a variable interest entity because it does not have sufficient equity at risk to fully fund the construction of all assets required for principal operations. We have determined we are not the primary beneficiary because we and our co-venturers jointly direct the activities of Gray Oak that most significantly impact economic performance. At March 31, 2019, our maximum exposure to loss was $771 million, which represented guaranteed purchase obligations of $30 million and the aggregate book value of our equity method investment in PP&E,Gray Oak of $741 million.

Bakken Pipeline
In March 2019, a wholly owned subsidiary of Dakota Access, LLC (Dakota Access) closed on an offering of $2,500 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes.  The net proceeds from the issuance of these notes were used to repay amounts outstanding under existing credit facilities of Dakota Access and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Company, LLC (ETCO).  Dakota Access and ETCO have guaranteed repayment of the notes.  In addition, we and our co-venturers provided a Contingent Equity Contribution Undertaking (CECU) in conjunction with the associated accumulated depreciation, was:notes offering.  Under the CECU, if Dakota Access receives an unfavorable court ruling related to certain disputed construction permits and Dakota Access determines that an equity contribution trigger event has occurred, the venturers may be severally required to make proportionate equity contributions to Dakota Access and ETCO up to an aggregate maximum of approximately $2,525 million. Our share of the maximum potential equity contributions under the CECU is approximately $631 million.

Note 8—Equity

ATM Program
In June 2016, we filed a prospectus supplement to the shelf registration statement for our continuous offering program that became effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission in May 2016, related to the continuous issuance of up to an aggregate of $250 million of common units, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions and other factors at the time of our offerings (such continuous offering program, or at-the-market program, is referred to as our ATM Program). We did not issue any common units under the ATM Program during the three months ended September 30, 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, on a settlement date basis, we issued 3,323,576 common units under our ATM Program, which generated net proceeds of $171 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, on a settlement date basis, we issued 83,294 and 346,152 common units, respectively, under our ATM Program, generating net proceeds of $5 million and $19 million, respectively. Since inception through September 30, 2017, we have issued an aggregate of 3,669,728 common units under our ATM Program, generating net proceeds of $190 million, after broker commissions of $2 million. The net proceeds from sales under the ATM Program are used for general partnership purposes, which may include debt repayment, future acquisitions, capital expenditures and additions to working capital.

Common Unit Offerings
In August 2016, we completed a public offering of 6,000,000 common units representing limited partner interests at a price of $50.22 per common unit. We received proceeds (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of $299 million from the offering. We utilized the net proceeds to repay the note assumed as part of the Initial Fractionator Acquisition and to repay other short-term borrowings incurred to fund our acquisition of an additional interest in Explorer and our contribution to form STACK Pipeline. SeeNote 4—Acquisitions for additional information.


In May 2016, we completed a public offering, consisting of an aggregate of 12,650,000 common units representing limited partner interests at a price of $52.40 per common unit. We received proceeds (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of $656 million from the offering. We utilized the net proceeds to partially repay debt assumed as part of the Subsequent Fractionator Acquisition. See Note 4—Acquisitionsfor additional information.


Note 9—Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit

Net income per limited partner unit applicable to common units is computed by dividing the limited partners’ interest in net income attributable to the Partnership by the weighted-average number of common units outstanding for the period. TheBecause we have more than one class of participating securities, we use the two-class method to calculate the net income per unit applicable to the limited partners. As of March 31, 2019, the classes of participating securities as of September 30, 2017, included common units, general partner units and incentive distribution rights (IDRs). BasicFor the three months ended March 31, 2019 and diluted2018, our preferred units are potentially dilutive securities and were dilutive to net income per limited partner unit are the same because we do not have potentially dilutive instruments outstanding.unit.

Net income earned by the Partnership is allocated between the limited partners and the General Partner (including the General Partner’s IDRs) in accordance with our partnership agreement.agreement, after giving effect to priority income allocations to the holders of the preferred units. First, earnings are allocated based on actual cash distributions madedeclared to our unitholders, including those attributable to the General Partner’s IDRs. To the extent net income attributable to the Partnership exceeds or is less than cash distributions, this difference is allocated based on the unitholders’ respective ownership percentages, after consideration of any priority allocations of earnings.

On March 22, 2019, we entered into a senior unsecured term loan facility with a borrowing capacity of $400 million that matures on March 20, 2020. At March 31, 2017.2019, term loans totaling $250 million were outstanding under this facility. Borrowings under this facility bear interest at a floating rate based on either the Eurodollar rate or the reference rate, plus a margin determined by our credit ratings. Proceeds from term loans made under this facility were used for general partnership purposes, including repayment of amounts borrowed under our $750 million revolving credit facility. On April 1, 2019, we borrowed an additional $120 million under this term loan facility.

At March 31, 2019, $550 million of debt due within a year was classified as long-term debt based on our intent to refinance the obligation on a long-term basis and ability to do so under our revolving credit facility.

The fair value of our fixed-rate and floating-rate debt is estimated based on observable market prices and is classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of our fixed-rate debt amounted to $2,847 million and $2,660 million at March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively. The fair value of our floating-rate debt approximated carrying value of $340 million and $200 million at March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively.


Note 10—Equity

ATM Programs
Our initial $250 million continuous offering of common units, or at-the-market (ATM) program, was completed in June 2018. At that time, we commenced issuing common units under our second $250 million ATM program. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, on a settlement date basis, we issued an aggregate of 622,032 common units under our ATM programs, generating net proceeds of $32 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we issued an aggregate of 188,815 common units under our ATM programs, generating net proceeds of $9 million. Since inception in June 2016 through March 31, 2019, we issued an aggregate of 6,872,996 common units under our ATM programs, generating net proceeds of $352 million, after broker commissions of $4 million. The net proceeds from sales under the ATM programs are used for general partnership purposes, which may include debt repayment, acquisitions, capital expenditures and additions to working capital.


Note 11—Contingencies

From time to time, lawsuits involving a variety of claims that arise in the ordinary course of business are filed against us. We also may be required to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment of the placement, storage, disposal or release of certain chemical, mineral and petroleum substances at various sites. We regularly assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. In the case of all known contingencies (other than those related to income taxes), we accrue a liability when the loss is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. If a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, then the minimum of the range is accrued. We do not reduce these liabilities for potential insurance or third-party recoveries. If applicable, we accrue receivables for probable insurance or other third-party recoveries. In the case of income-tax-related contingencies, we use a cumulative probability-weighted loss accrual in cases where sustaining a tax position is less than certain.

Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures. Estimates particularly sensitive to future changes include any contingent liabilities recorded for environmental remediation, tax and legal matters. Estimated future environmental remediation costs are subject to change due to such factors as the uncertain magnitude of cleanup costs, the unknown time and extent of such remedial actions that may be required, and the determination of our liability in proportion to that

of other potentially responsible parties. Estimated future costs related to tax and legal matters are subject to change as events evolve and as additional information becomes available during the administrative and litigation processes.


Environmental
We are subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. We record accruals for contingent environmental liabilities based on management’s best estimates, using all information that is available at the time. We measure estimates and base liabilities on currently available facts, existing technology, and presently enacted laws and regulations, taking into account stakeholder and business considerations. When measuring environmental liabilities, we also consider our prior experience in remediation of contaminated sites, other companies’ cleanup experience, and data released by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or other organizations. We consider unasserted claims in our determination of environmental liabilities, and we accrue them in the period they are both probable and reasonably estimable.

At both September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, our total environmental accrual was $2 million. In the future, we may be involved in additional environmental assessments, cleanups and proceedings.

Legal Proceedings
Under our amended omnibus agreement, Phillips 66 provides certain services for our benefit, including legal support services, and we pay an operational and administrative support fee for these services. Phillips 66’s legal organization applies its knowledge, experience and professional judgment to the specific characteristics of our cases, employing a litigation management process to manage and monitor the legal proceedings against us. The process facilitates the early evaluation and quantification of potential exposures in individual cases and enables tracking of those cases that have been scheduled for trial and/or mediation. Based on professional judgment and experience in using these litigation management tools and available information about current developments in all our cases, Phillips 66’s legal organization regularly assesses the adequacy of current accruals and recommendsdetermines if adjustment of existing accruals, or establishment of new accruals, is required. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2016,2018, we did not have any material accrued contingent liabilities associated with litigation matters.

Indemnification and Excluded Liabilities
Under our amended omnibus agreement and pursuant to the terms of various agreements under which we acquired assets from Phillips 66, Phillips 66 will indemnify us, or assume responsibility, for certain environmental liabilities, tax liabilities, litigation and any other liabilities attributable to the ownership or operation of the assets contributed to us and that arose prior to the effective date of each acquisition. These indemnifications and exclusions from liability have, in some cases, time limits and deductibles. When Phillips 66 performs under any of these indemnifications or exclusions from liability, we recognize a non-cash expensenoncash expenses and an associated non-cashnoncash capital contributioncontributions from our General Partner, as these are considered liabilities paid for by a principal unitholder.

We have assumed, and have agreed to pay, discharge and perform as and when due, all liabilities arising out of or attributable to the ownership or operation of the assets, or other activities occurring in connection with and attributable to the ownership or operation of the assets, from and after the effective date of each acquisition.

Under these agreements, Phillips 66 commits to provide us with minimum quarterlytransportation, throughput or storage volumes, of crude oil, NGL, feedstock, and refined petroleum products or minimum monthly service fees. Under our transportation, processing, and terminaling services agreements, ifIf Phillips 66 fails to transport, throughput or storedoes not meet its minimum throughput volume during any quarter, thencommitments, Phillips 66 will paypays us a deficiency payment based on the calculation described in the agreement.

Amended and Restated Operational Services Agreement
Under our amended and restated operational services agreement, we reimburse Phillips 66 for providing certain operational services to us in support of our pipelines, and terminaling, processing, and storage facilities. These services include routine and emergency maintenance and repair services, routine operational activities, routine administrative services, construction and related services and such other services as we and Phillips 66 may mutually agree upon from time to time.

Amended Omnibus Agreement
The amended omnibus agreement addresses our payment of an operating and administrative support fee and our obligation to reimburse Phillips 66 for all other direct or allocated costs and expenses incurred by Phillips 66 in providing general and administrative services. Additionally, the omnibus agreement addresses Phillips 66’s indemnification to us and our indemnification to Phillips 66 for certain environmental and other liabilities. Further, it addresses the granting of a license from Phillips 66 to us with respect to the use of certain Phillips 66 trademarks.

Tax Sharing Agreement
We have entered into aUnder our tax sharing agreement, with Phillips 66 pursuant to which we reimburse Phillips 66 for our share of state and local income and other taxes incurred by Phillips 66 due to our results of operations being included in a combined or consolidated tax return filed by Phillips 66. Any reimbursement is limited to the tax that we (and our subsidiaries) would have paid had we not been included in a combined group with Phillips 66. Phillips 66 may use its tax attributes to cause its combined or consolidated group to owe no tax; however, we would nevertheless reimburse Phillips 66 for the tax we would have owed, even though Phillips 66 had no cash expense for that period.

Note 13—New Accounting Standards

Equity Affiliate Guarantee
In January 2017,2018, we guaranteed the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifyingpayment of our portion of certain purchase obligations of Gray Oak. At March 31, 2019, our maximum potential amount of future payments to third parties under the Definition of a Business,” which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist in evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses. The amendment provides a screen for determining when a transaction involves an acquisition of a business. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, then the transaction is not considered an acquisition of a business. If the screen is not met, then the amendment requires that,guarantee was estimated to be considered a business, the operation must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create an output. The guidance may reduce the number of transactions accounted for as business acquisitions. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU No. 2017-01 to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods, with early adoption permitted. The amendment should be applied prospectively, and no disclosures are required at the effective date. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2017-01.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” In the new standard, the FASB modified its determination of whether a contract is a lease rather than whether a lease is a capital or operating lease under current accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). A contract represents a lease if a transfer of control occurs over an identified property, plant and equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset includes the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct its use. The FASB continued to maintain two classifications of leases—financing and operating—which are substantially similar to capital and operating leases under current guidance. Under the new standard, assets and liabilities arising from operating leases will require recognition on the balance sheet. The effect of all leases in the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows will be largely unchanged. Lessor accounting will also be largely unchanged. Additional disclosures will$30 million. Payment would be required for financing and operating leases for both lessors and lessees. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU No. 2016-02 for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to adopt the ASU using a modified retrospective approach, subject to certain optional practical expedients, and apply its provisions to leasing arrangements existing at or entered into after the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02 and assessing its impactif Gray Oak defaults on our financial statements. As part of our assessment work-to-date, we have formed an implementation team, commenced identification of our lease population and are evaluating lease software packages.


In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” to meet its objective of providing more decision-useful information about financial instruments. The majority of this ASU’s provisions amend only the presentation or disclosures of financial instruments; however, one provision affects net income. Equity investments carried under the cost method or lower of cost or fair value method of accounting, in accordance with current GAAP, will have to be carried at fair value upon adoption of ASU No. 2016-01, with changes in fair value recorded in net income. For equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values, a company may elect to carry such investments at cost less impairments, if any, adjusted up or down for price changes in similar financial instruments issued by the investee, when and if observed. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU No. 2016-01 for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption prohibited. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-01. Our initial review indicates that ASU No. 2016-01 will have a limited impact on our financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” This ASU and other related updates issued are intended to improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets and expand disclosure requirements. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date.” The amendment in this ASU defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities for one year. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. As part of our assessment work-to-date, we have formed an implementation team, completed training on the new ASU’s revenue recognition model and are continuing our contract review and documentation. Our expectation is to adopt the standard on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective application. Our evaluation of the new ASU is ongoing, which includes understanding the impact of adoption on earnings from equity method investments and revenue generated by lease arrangements. Based on our analysis to-date, we have not identified any material impact on our financial statements, other than disclosure.


Note 14— Subsequent Events

Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition
On September 19, 2017, we entered into a CCAA with subsidiaries of Phillips 66 for us to acquire an indirect 25 percent interest in each of Dakota Access, LLC and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Company, LLC (together, Dakota/ETCO) and a direct 100 percent interest in Merey Sweeny, L.P. (MSLP and the acquisitions pursuant to the CCAA, collectively, the Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition).

The assets owned by Dakota/ETCO and MSLP are described below:

Dakota/ETCO owns the Bakken Pipeline, which includes 1,926 combined pipeline miles which has 520,000 barrels per day (BPD) of crude oil capacity expandable to 570,000 BPD. There are receipt stations in North Dakota to access Bakken and Three Forks production, a delivery and receipt point in Patoka, Illinois, and delivery points in Nederland, Texas, including at the Phillips 66 Beaumont Terminal. The pipeline, which commenced commercial operations on June 1, 2017, is supported by long-term, fee-based contracts.

MSLP owns a 125,000 BPD capacity vacuum distillation unit and a 70,000 BPD capacity delayed coker unit. MSLP processes residue from heavy sour crude oil into liquid products and fuel-grade petroleum coke at the Phillips 66 Sweeny Refinery in Old Ocean, Texas.

In connection with the closing of the acquisition, MSLP and Phillips 66 entered into an amended and restated tolling services agreement, effective October 1, 2017, with a 15-year term that includes a base throughput fee and a minimum volume commitment from Phillips 66.


The Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition closed on October 6, 2017. We paid Phillips 66 total consideration of $1.65 billion, consisting of $372 million in cash, the assumption of $588 million of promissory notes payable to Phillips 66 and a $450 million term loan under which Phillips 66 was the obligor, and the issuance of 5,005,778 newly issued units, which were allocated as 4,713,113 common units to P66 PDI and 292,665 general partner units to our General Partner to maintain its 2 percent general partner interest. After the closing of the Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition, we repaid the $588 million of promissory notes and the $450 million term loan using proceeds from the private placement and debt issuances described below. The Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition increased our total equity investments and net PP&E by approximately$610 million and $220 million, respectively.

Debt and Equity Issuances
Private Placement of Preferred and Common Units. In part to fund the cash portion of the Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition consideration, on October 6, 2017, we closed on a private placement and issued the following:

13,819,791 perpetual convertible preferred units generating gross proceeds of $750 million.
6,304,204 common units generating gross proceeds of $300 million.

Together, the units issued in the private placement resulted in net proceeds, after deducting offering and transaction expenses, of approximately $1.03 billion.

We privately placed approximately 13.8 million Series A Perpetual Convertible Preferred Units (Preferred Units) representing limited partner interests for a price of $54.27 per unit. The Preferred Units rank senior to all common units with respect to distributions and rights upon liquidation. The holders of the Preferred Units are entitled to receive cumulative quarterly distributions equal to $0.678375 per unit, commencing for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, with a prorated amount from the date of issuance. Following the third anniversary of the issuance of the Preferred Units, the holders of the Preferred Units will receive as a quarterly distribution the greater of $0.678375 per unit or the amount of per-unit distributions paid to common unitholders as if such Preferred Units had converted into common units immediately prior to the record date.

The holders of the Preferred Units may convert their Preferred Units into common units, on a one-for-one basis, at any time after the second anniversary of the issuance date, in full or in part, subject to minimum conversion amounts and conditions. After the third anniversary of the issuance date, we may convert the Preferred Units into common units at any time, in whole or in part, subject to certain minimum conversion amounts and conditions, if the arithmetic average of the volume-weighted trading price of our common units is greater than $73.2645 per unit for the 20 day trading period immediately preceding the conversion notice date and the average trading volume of the common units is at least 100,000 for the preceding 20 trading days. The conversion rate for the Preferred Units shall be the quotient of (a) the sum of (i) $54.27, plus (ii) any unpaid cash distributions on the applicable Preferred Unit, divided by (b) $54.27. The holders of the Preferred Units are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the common unitholders and have certain other class voting rights with respect to any amendment to our partnership agreement that would adversely affect any rights, preferences or privileges of the Preferred Units. In addition, upon certain events involving a change in control, the holders of Preferred Units may elect, among other potential elections, to convert their Preferred Units to common units at the then change of control conversion rate.

Debt Issuances. On October 13, 2017, we closed on a public debt offering and issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.750% Senior Notes due 2028 and an additional $150 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 4.680% Senior Notes due 2045. Interest on the Senior Notes due 2028 is payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on March 1, 2018. The Senior Notes due 2045 are an additional issuance of our existing Senior Notes due 2045, and interest is payable semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The proceeds from the public debt offering have been applied to repay the remaining balances on the promissory notes and term loan assumed in the Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition and also will be used for general partnership purposes, including funding of future acquisitions and organic projects and the repayment of outstanding indebtedness under our revolving credit facility.these obligations.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Partnership Overview
We are a growth-oriented master limited partnership formed to own, operate, develop and acquire primarily fee-based midstream assets. Our operations consist of crude oil, refined petroleum products and natural gas liquids (NGL) pipelines and terminals, and other transportation and midstream assets. Our common units trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol PSXP.

Our assets consist of crude oil, refined petroleum products and NGL transportation, terminaling, processing and storage systems, as well as an NGL fractionator.assets. We conduct our operations through both wholly owned and joint-venturejoint venture operations. The majority of our wholly owned assets are associated with, and are integral to the operation of, nine of Phillips 66’s owned or joint-venturejoint venture refineries.

We primarily generate revenue by providing fee-based transportation, terminaling, processing, terminaling, storage and NGL fractionation services to Phillips 66 and other customers. Our equity affiliates primarily generate revenue from transporting and terminaling NGL,crude oil, refined petroleum products and crude oil. Since we do not own any of the NGL, crude oil and refined petroleum products we handle and do not engage in the trading of NGL, crude oil and refined petroleum products, we have limited direct exposure to risks associated with fluctuating commodity prices, although these risks indirectly influence our activities and results of operations over the long term.NGL.

Basis of Presentation
We have acquired assets from Phillips 66 that were considered transfers of businesses between entities underOur common control. This required the transactions to be accounted for as if the transfers had occurred at the beginning of the transfer period, with prior periods retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements and related notes have been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results and financial position of these acquired businesses prior to the effective date of each acquisition. We refer to these pre-acquisition operations as those of our “Predecessors.”

See the “Basis of Presentation” section of Note 1—Business and Basis of Presentation, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for additional informationunits trade on the content and comparability of our historical financial statements.New York Stock Exchange under the symbol PSXP.

How We Evaluate Our Operations
Our management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance, including: (1) volumes handled (including pipeline throughput, terminaling throughput and storage volumes);handled; (2) operating and maintenance expenses; (3) net income (loss) before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); (4) adjusted EBITDA; and (5) distributable cash flow.

Volumes Handled
The amount of revenue we generate primarily depends on the volumes of crude oil, refined petroleum products and NGL that we handle in our pipeline, terminal, rail rack, processing, storage and NGL fractionator systems. In addition, our equity affiliates generate revenue from transporting and terminaling NGL, crude oil, and refined petroleum products.products and NGL. These volumes are primarily affected by the supply of, and demand for, NGL, crude oil, and refined petroleum products and NGL in the markets served directly or indirectly by our assets, as well as the operational status of the refineries served by our assets. Phillips 66 has committed to minimum throughput volumes under many of our commercial agreements.

Operating and Maintenance Expenses
Our management seeks to maximize the profitability of our operations by effectively managing operating and maintenance expenses. These expenses primarily consist of labor expenses (including contractor services), utility costs, and repair and maintenance expenses. TheseOperating and maintenance expenses generally remain relatively stable across broad ranges of throughput volumes but can fluctuate from period to period depending on the mix of activities,

particularly maintenance activities, performed during the period. Although we seek to manage our maintenance expenditures on our facilities to avoid significant variability in our quarterly cash flows, we balance this approach with our high standards of safety and environmental stewardship, such that critical maintenance is regularly performed.

Our operating and maintenance expenses are also affected by volumetric gains/losses resulting from variances in meter readings and other measurement methods, as well as volume fluctuations due to pressure and temperature changes. Under certain commercial agreements with Phillips 66, the value of any NGL, crude oil, or refined petroleum product and NGL volumetric gain/loss isgains and losses are determined by reference to the monthly average reference price for the applicable commodity. Any gains and gains/losses under these provisions decrease or increase, respectively, our operating and maintenance expenses in the period in which they are realized. These contractual volumetric gain/loss provisions could increase variability in our operating and maintenance expenses.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization attributable to both the Partnership and our Predecessors.amortization.

Adjusted EBITDA is the EBITDA, directly attributable to the Partnership after deducting the EBITDA attributable to our Predecessors, further adjusted for:
The difference between cash distributions receivedproportional share of equity affiliates’ net interest expense, income taxes and equity earnings from our affiliates.depreciation and amortization.
Transaction costs associated with acquisitions.
Certain other noncash items, including expenses indemnified by Phillips 66.
Distributable cash flow is defined as adjusted EBITDA less (i) equity affiliate distributions less than proportional EBITDA, (ii) maintenance capital expenditures, (iii) net interest expense, maintenance capital expenditures and(iv) income taxes paid and (v) preferred unit distributions; plus adjustments for deferred revenue impacts and prefunded maintenance capital expenditures.impacts.

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and distributable cash flow are not presentations made in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (GAAP)accounting principles in the United States.States (GAAP). EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and distributable cash flow are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures that management believes external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may find useful to assess:
Our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, financing methods.
The ability of our business to generate sufficient cash to support our decision to make distributions to our unitholders.

Our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures.
The viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.
The GAAP performance measure most directly comparable to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is net income. The GAAP liquidity measure most directly comparable to EBITDA and distributable cash flow is net cash provided by operating activities. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income or net cash provided by operating activities. They have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, because EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

Business Environment
Since we do not own any of the NGL, crude oil, and refined petroleum products and NGL we handle and do not engage in the trading of NGL, crude oil, and refined petroleum products and NGL, we have limited direct exposure to risks associated with fluctuating commodity prices, although these risks indirectly influence our activities and results of operations over the long term.

Our throughput volumes primarily depend on the volume of crude oil processed and refined petroleum products produced at Phillips 66’s owned or operated refineries with which our assets are integrated, which in turnintegrated. These volumes are primarily dependent on Phillips 66’s refining margins and maintenance schedules. Refining margins depend on the costprice of crude oil or other feedstocks and the price of refined petroleum products. These prices are affected by numerous factors beyond our or Phillips 66’s control, including the domestic and global supply of and demand for crude oil and refined petroleum products. Throughput volumes of our equity affiliates primarily depend on upstream drilling activities, refinery performance and product supply and demand.

While we believe we have substantially mitigated our indirect exposure to commodity price fluctuations through the minimum volume commitments in our commercial agreements with Phillips 66 during the respective terms of those agreements, our ability to execute our growth strategy in our areas of operation will depend, in part, on the availability of attractively priced crude oil in the areas served by our crude oil pipelines and rail racks, demand for refined petroleum products in the markets served by our refined petroleum product pipelines and terminals, and the general demand for midstream services, including NGL transportation and fractionation.

Minimum Volume Commitments
Under certain of our transportationExcludes Merey Sweeny capital reimbursements and terminal services agreements, if Phillips 66 fails to transport a minimum throughput volume during any quarter, then Phillips 66 will pay us a deficiency payment based on the calculation described in the agreement. Payments made by Phillips 66 for these shortfall volumes are initially recorded as “Deferred revenues” on our consolidated balance sheet, as Phillips 66 generally has the right to make up the shortfall volumes in the following four quarters. The deferred revenue is recognized at the earlier of the quarter in which Phillips 66 makes up the shortfall volumes or the expiration of the period in which Phillips 66 is contractually allowed to make up the shortfall volumes.

Detail on these transportation- and terminal-based deferred revenues follows:

Statement of Income Analysis

Operating revenues increased $16$46 million, or 9 percent, and $39 million, or 7 percent,18%, in the thirdfirst quarter and the nine-month period of 2017, respectively.2019. The increase in the third quarter of 2017 was primarily attributabledue to additionalthe recognition of previously deferred revenues from the River Parish NGL System acquired in November 2016associated with fees charged to Phillips 66 related to turnaround activity at Merey Sweeny LLC (Merey Sweeny), and higher volumes and rates on the Ponca Crude System, partially offset by lower volumes on the Sweeny to Pasadena Products System as a result of Hurricane Harvey impacts. The increase in the nine-month period of 2017 was due to additional revenues from the River Parish NGL System and from additional storage capacity coming online at Clemens Caverns, partially offset by lower throughput volumes on the Gold Line Products System due to maintenance at Phillips 66’s Borger refinery.wholly owned assets.

Equity in earnings of affiliates increased $8$21 million or 24 percent, and $23 million, or 26 percent, in the thirdfirst quarter and the nine-month period of 2017, respectively.2019. The increases wereincrease was primarily attributable to higher earnings from DCPDakota Access, LLC (Dakota Access) and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Company, LLC (ETCO), together referred to as the Bakken Pipeline, Sand Hills Pipeline, LLC (Sand Hills) and Bayou BridgeSouthern Hills Pipeline, LLC (Bayou Bridge)(Southern Hills), primarily due to improved volumes. These higher volumes. In addition, the increaseearnings were offset by a decrease in the nine-month period also reflected additional earnings from Bayou Bridge, which began operations in April 2016, and STACKExplorer Pipeline LLC (STACK), in which we acquired a 50 percent interest in August 2016.Company due to lower volumes.

Operating and maintenance expenses increased by $15 million, or 28 percent, and $26$42 million, or 16 percent,43%, in the thirdfirst quarter and the nine-month period of 2017, respectively.2019. The increases wereincrease was primarily due to operating expenses associated with the River Parish NGL System acquired in November 2016.
Depreciation increased $5 million, or 20 percent, and $11 million, or 15 percent, in the third quarter and the nine-month period of 2017, respectively. The increases were mainly attributable to the River Parish NGL System acquired in November 2016, additional cavern storage capacity placed into service, and accelerated depreciation for assets taken out of service.turnaround activity at Merey Sweeny.

Interest and debt expense increased $13 million and $40 million in the third quarter and the nine-month period of 2017, respectively, primarily due to higher average debt principal balances as a result of the issuance of $1,125 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes in October 2016.


CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Significant Sources of Capital
Our sources of liquidity include cash generated from operations, borrowings from related parties and under our revolving credit facility, and issuances of additional debt and equity securities. We believe that cash generated from these sources will be sufficient to meet our short-term working capital requirements, long-term capital expenditure requirements and our quarterly cash distributions.

Operating Activities
We generated $422$205 million in cash from operations during the first ninethree months of 2017,2019, an improvement over cash from operations of $371$171 million for the corresponding period of 2016.2018. The improvement was mainlyprimarily driven by working capital impacts.

Common Units
In August 2016, we completed a public offering of 6,000,000 common units representing limited partner interests at a price of $50.22 per common unit. We received proceeds (net of underwriting discountshigher operating revenues and commissions) of $299 milliondistributions from the offering. We utilized the net proceeds to repay the note assumed as part of the Initial Fractionator Acquisitionequity affiliates, partially offset by higher operating and to repay other short-term borrowings incurred to fund our acquisition of an additional interest in Explorer and our contribution to form STACK Pipeline. SeeNote 4—Acquisitions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

In May 2016, we completed a public offering, consisting of an aggregate of 12,650,000 common units representing limited partner interests, at a price of $52.40 per common unit. We received proceeds (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of $656 million from the offering (2016 Unit Offering). We utilized the net proceeds to partially repay debt assumed as part of the Subsequent Fractionator Acquisition. See Note 4—Acquisitions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.maintenance expenses.

ATM ProgramPrograms
In June 2016, we filed a prospectus supplement to the shelf registration statement for ourOur initial $250 million continuous offering program that became effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission in May 2016, related to the continuous issuance of up to an aggregate of $250 million of common units, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions and other factors at the time of our offerings (such continuous offering program, or at-the-market (ATM) program, is referred to as our ATM Program). We did not issue anywas completed in June 2018. At that time, we commenced issuing common units under our second $250 million ATM Program duringprogram. For the three months ended September 30, 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019, on a settlement date basis, we issued 3,323,576an aggregate of 622,032 common units under our ATM Program, which generatedprograms, generating net proceeds of $171$32 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, on a settlement date basis,March 31, 2018, we issued 83,294 and 346,152 common units, respectively, under our ATM Program, generating net proceeds of $5 million and $19 million, respectively. Since inception through September 30, 2017, we have issued an aggregate of 3,669,728188,815 common units under our ATM Program,programs, generating net proceeds of $190$9 million. Since inception in June 2016 through March 31, 2019, we issued an aggregate of 6,872,996 common units under our ATM programs, generating net proceeds of $352 million, after broker commissions of $2$4 million. The net proceeds from sales under the ATM Programprograms are used for general partnership purposes, which may include funding of debt repayment, future acquisitions, capital expenditures and additions to working capital.

Issuances of common units under our ATM Program can reduce our General Partner’s interest below 2 percent. We expect the General Partner’s interest to be periodically restored to 2 percent in connection with dropdown transactions or through direct equity contributions. However, these future contributions from our General Partner cannot be assured. At September 30, 2017, our General Partner’s interest was slightly less than 2 percent.

Revolving Credit Facility
At September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2016,2018, we had an aggregate of $87$15 million and $210$125 million, respectively, borrowed and outstanding under our $750 million revolving credit facility. We repaid the $87 million outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility in October 2017, utilizing proceeds from the equity and debt issuances discussed in the “Outlook” section.


Term Loan Facility
Note Payable
In May 2016, in connection with the Subsequent Fractionator Acquisition,On March 22, 2019, we entered into three separate Assignment and Assumption of Note agreements with subsidiaries of Phillips 66, pursuant to which we assumed the obligations under threea senior unsecured term promissory notes (the Subsequent Notes), eachloan facility with a $225borrowing capacity of $400 million principal balance. Alsothat matures on March 20, 2020. At March 31, 2019, term loans totaling $250 million were outstanding under this facility. Borrowings under this facility bear interest at a floating rate based on either the Eurodollar rate or the reference rate, plus a margin determined by our credit ratings. Proceeds from term loans made under this facility were used for general partnership purposes, including repayment of amounts borrowed under our $750 million revolving credit facility.

On April 1, 2019, we borrowed an additional $120 million under this term loan facility.

Transfers of Equity Interests
In December 2018, a third party exercised an option to acquire a 35% interest in May 2016, using proceedsGray Oak Holdings LLC (Holdings LLC), a consolidated subsidiary. This transfer did not qualify as a sale under GAAP because of certain restrictions placed on the acquirer. The contributions received by Holdings LLC from the 2016 Unit Offering, we repaid twothird party to cover capital calls from Gray Oak Pipeline, LLC (Gray Oak) are presented as a long-term obligation on our consolidated balance sheet and financing cash inflows on our consolidated statement of cash flows until construction of the SubsequentGray Oak Pipeline is completed and the restrictions expire. During the first three months of 2019, the third party contributed an aggregate of $341 million into Holdings LLC, which Holdings LLC used to fund its portion of Gray Oak’s cash calls.

In February 2019, Holdings LLC sold a 10% ownership interest in Gray Oak to a third party that exercised a purchase option for proceeds of $81 million. The proceeds received from this sale are presented as an investing cash inflow on our consolidated statement of cash flows.

See Note 6—Equity Investments and Loans, in the Notes in their entirety and reduced the outstanding balance on the remaining Subsequent Note to $19 million, which was repaid in June 2016.Consolidated Financial Statements, for additional information regarding these transactions.


Shelf Registration
We have a universal shelf registration statement on file with the SECU.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under which we, as a well-known seasoned issuer, have the ability to issue and sell an indeterminate amount of common units representing limited partner interests, preferred units representing limited partner interests, and debt securities.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
WeIn March 2019, a wholly owned subsidiary of Dakota Access closed on an offering of $2,500 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes.  The net proceeds from the issuance of these notes were used to repay amounts outstanding under existing credit facilities of Dakota Access and ETCO.  Dakota Access and ETCO have not entered into any transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangementsguaranteed repayment of the notes.  In addition, we and our co-venturers provided a Contingent Equity Contribution Undertaking (CECU) in conjunction with the notes offering.  Under the CECU, if Dakota Access receives an unfavorable court ruling related to certain disputed construction permits and Dakota Access determines that an equity contribution trigger event has occurred, the venturers may be severally required to make proportionate equity contributions to Dakota Access and ETCO up to an aggregate maximum of approximately $2,525 million. Our share of the maximum potential equity contributions under the CECU is approximately $631 million.

In 2018, we guaranteed the payment of our portion of certain purchase obligations of Gray Oak. At March 31, 2019, our maximum potential amount of future payments to third parties under the guarantee was estimated to be $30 million. Payment would result in off-balance sheet liabilities.be required if Gray Oak defaults on these obligations.


Capital Requirements

Capital Expenditures and Investments
Our operations can beare capital intensive requiringand require investments to expand, upgrade, maintain or enhance existing operations and to meet environmental and operational requirements of our wholly owned and joint venture entities. Our capital requirements consist of maintenance and expansion capital expenditures, as well as contributions to our joint ventures. Examples of maintenance capital expenditures are those made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and to extend their useful lives, or to maintain existing system volumes and related cash flows. In contrast, expansionExpansion capital expenditures are those made to expand and upgrade our systems and facilities and to construct or acquire new systems or facilities to grow our business, including contributions to joint ventures that are using the contributed funds for such purposes. In contrast, maintenance capital expenditures are those made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and to extend their useful lives, or to maintain existing system volumes and related cash flows.

Our capital expenditures and investments represent the total spending for our capital requirements. Our adjusted capital spending is a non-GAAP financial measure that demonstrates our net share of capital spending, and reflects an adjustment for the first nine monthsportion of 2017consolidated capital spending funded by certain of our Gray Oak joint venture partners from our sale or transfer of equity interests to them. Additionally, the disaggregation of adjusted capital spending between expansion and 2016maintenance is not a distinction recognized under GAAP. We disaggregate adjusted capital spending because our partnership agreement requires that we treat expansion and maintenance capital differently for certain surplus determinations. Further, we generally fund expansion capital spending with both operating and financing cash flows and fund maintenance capital spending with operating cash flows.

Our capital expenditures and investments for the first ninethree months of 20172019 were $225 million, primarily associated with the following activities:

Contributions to Gray Oak to progress construction of the pipeline, which will provide crude oil transportation from the Permian and Eagle Ford to destinations in Corpus Christi, Texas, and the Sweeny, Texas, area, including the Phillips 66 Sweeny Refinery. Due to cost pressures from increased steel costs, escalating labor rates, and higher right-of-way costs, the projected total cost of the Gray Oak project has been increased to approximately $2.7 billion on a 100% basis.  As a result, we now expect our 2019 adjusted capital spending will be in the range of $700 million to $750 million.

Construction activities related to a new isomerization unit at the Phillips 66 Lake Charles Refinery.

Construction activities related to increasing storage capacity at Clemens Caverns.

Contributions to Bayou Bridge Pipeline, LLC (Bayou Bridge) to continue progress on itscompletethe pipeline segment from Lake Charles, Louisiana to St. James, Louisiana.

ContributionsConstruction activities related to STACK to extend the origination point of its pipeline system to access additional area producers and increase capacity.

Contributions to Sand Hills to increaseincreasing capacity on its NGL pipeline system.

Reactivation and upgrading of various tanks at the Bayway Products SystemSweeny to facilitate additional storage and gasoline blending.

Contributions to Paradigm Pipeline LLC to fund its contributions to the Sacagawea Pipeline joint venture to construct a natural gasPasadena refined petroleum products pipeline.

Other InvestingRelated Party Loan
During the third quarter of 2016,On March 29, 2019, we paid $24 million to Phillips 66 to assume Phillips 66’s rights and obligations underour co-venturers executed an agreement to acquireloan Gray Oak up to a maximum of $1,230 million to finance construction of the River Parish NGL System in southeast Louisiana.Gray Oak Pipeline. The paymentamount loaned by each venturer is expected to Phillips 66be proportionate to its effective ownership interest. The maximum amount to be loaned by us is reflected as an “other” investing cash outflow in the consolidated statement$520 million. Loans under this agreement are due on March 31, 2022, with early repayment permitted. We expect any amounts outstanding under this agreement to be repaid upon completion of cash flows in 2016.project-level financing.On April 1, 2019, we and our co-venturers loaned Gray Oak a total of $125 million under this agreement, of which our share was $53 million.

Cash DistributionDistributions
On October 18, 2017,April 17, 2019, the Board of Directors of our General Partner declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.646$0.845 per common unit which, combined with distributions to our General Partner, will resultand excluding distributions to holders of our preferred units, resulted in a total distribution of $121$174 million attributable to the first quarter of 2019. This distribution is payable on November 13, 2017,May 14, 2019, to unitholders of record as of October 31, 2017.April 30, 2019.


Cash distributions will beare made to our General Partner in respect of its general partner interest and its ownership of all incentive distribution rights (IDRs),IDRs, which entitle our General Partner to receive increasing percentages, up to 50 percent,50%, of quarterly cash distributions in excess of $0.244375 per unit. Accordingly, based on the per-unit distribution declared on October 18, 2017,April 17, 2019, our General Partner will receive 35 percent40% of the third-quarter 2017first-quarter 2019 cash distribution, excluding preferred unit distributions, in respect of its general partner interest and its ownership of all IDRs.

The holders of our preferred units are entitled to receive cumulative quarterly distributions equal to $0.678375 per preferred unit. Preferred unitholders received $9 million of distributions in the first quarter of 2019 that were attributable to the fourth quarter of 2018.


Contingencies
From time to time, lawsuits involving a variety of claims that arise in the ordinary course of business are filed against us. We also may be required to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment of the placement, storage, disposal or release of certain chemical, mineral and petroleum substances at various sites. We regularly assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. In the case of all known contingencies (other than those related to income taxes), we accrue a liability when the loss is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. If a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, then the minimum of the range is accrued. We do not reduce these liabilities for potential insurance or third-party recoveries. If applicable, we accrue receivables for probable insurance or other third-party recoveries. In the case of income-tax-related contingencies, we use a cumulative probability-weighted loss accrual in cases where sustaining a tax position is less than certain.

Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures. Estimates particularly sensitive to future changes include any contingent liabilities recorded for environmental remediation, tax and legal matters. Estimated future environmental remediation costs are subject to change due to such factors as the uncertain magnitude of cleanup costs, the unknown time and extent of such remedial actions that may be required, and the determination of our liability in proportion to that of other potentially responsible parties. Estimated future costs related to tax and legal matters are subject to change as events evolve and as additional information becomes available during the administrative and litigation processes.

Regulatory Matters
Our interstate common carrier crude oil and refined petroleum products pipeline operations are subject to rate regulation by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission under the Interstate Commerce Act and Energy Policy Act of 1992, and certain of our pipeline systems providing intrastate service are subject to rate regulation by applicable state authorities under their respective laws and regulations. Our pipeline, rail rack and terminal operations are also subject to safety regulations adopted by the Department of Transportation, as well as to state regulations.


Legal and Tax Matters
Under our amended omnibus agreement, Phillips 66 provides certain services for our benefit, including legal and tax support services, and we pay an operational and administrative support fee for these services. Phillips 66’s legal and tax organizations apply their knowledge, experience and professional judgment to the specific characteristics of our cases and uncertain tax positions. Phillips 66’s legal organization employs a litigation management process to manage and monitor the legal proceedings against us. The process facilitates the early evaluation and quantification of potential exposures in individual cases and enables tracking of those cases that have been scheduled for trial and/or mediation. Based on professional judgment and experience in using these litigation management tools and available information about current developments in all our cases, Phillips 66’s legal organization regularly assesses the adequacy of current accruals and recommends if adjustment of existing accruals, or establishment of new accruals, is required. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2016,2018, we did not have any material accrued contingent liabilities associated with litigation matters.


Environmental
We are subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. These requirements, which frequently change, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relate to protection of the environment. Compliance with these laws and regulations may require us to remediate environmental damage from any discharge of petroleum or chemical substances from our facilities or require us to install additional pollution control equipment at or on our facilities. Our failure to comply with these or any other environmental or safety-related regulations could result in the assessment of administrative, civil, or criminal penalties, the imposition of investigatory and remedial liabilities, and the issuance of governmental orders that may subject us to additional operational constraints. Future expenditures may be required to comply with the Federal Clean Air Act and other federal, state and local requirements in respect of our various sites, including our pipelines and storage assets. The impact of legislative and regulatory developments, if enacted or adopted, could result in increased compliance costs and additional operating restrictions on our business, each of which could have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

As with all costs, if these expenditures are not ultimately reflectedrecovered in the tariffs and other fees we receive for our services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all similarly situated parties and holders of comparable assets must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations. However, the specific impact on each may vary depending on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the age and location of its operating facilities.

We accrue for environmental remediation activities when the responsibility to remediate is probable and the amount of associated costs can be reasonably estimated. As environmental remediation matters proceed toward ultimate resolution or as additional remediation obligations arise, charges in excess of those previously accrued may be required. New or expanded environmental requirements, which could increase our environmental costs, may arise in the future. We believe we are in substantial compliance with all legal obligations regarding the environment and have established the environmental accruals that are currently required; however, it is not possible to predict all of the ultimate costs of compliance, including remediation costs that may be incurred and penalties that may be imposed, because not all of the costs are fixed or presently determinable (even under existing legislation) and the costs may be affected by future legislation or regulations.

Paradis Pipeline Station Incident
On February 9, 2017, a fire occurred at the Paradis Pipeline Station on the River Parish NGL System.  There was one Phillips 66 employee fatality and other workers injured.  We continue to cooperate with regulatory agencies investigating this incident. We do not currently expect claims related to this incident, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material impact on our results of operations.

Indemnification and Excluded Liabilities
Under our amended omnibus agreement and pursuant to the terms of various agreements under which we acquired assets from Phillips 66, Phillips 66 will indemnify us, or assume responsibility, for certain environmental liabilities, tax liabilities, litigation and any other liabilities attributable to the ownership or operation of the assets contributed to us and that arose prior to the effective date of each acquisition. These indemnifications and exclusions from liability have, in some cases, time limits and deductibles. When Phillips 66 performs under any of these indemnifications or exclusions from liability, we recognize a non-cash expensenoncash expenses and an associated non-cashnoncash capital contributioncontributions from our General Partner, as these are considered liabilities paid for by a principal unitholder.

We have assumed, and have agreed to pay, discharge and perform as and when due, all liabilities arising out of or attributable to the ownership or operation of the assets, or other activities occurring in connection with and attributable to the ownership or operation of the assets, from and after the effective date of each acquisition.


NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist in evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses. The amendment provides a screen for determining when a transaction involves an acquisition of a business. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, then the transaction is not considered an acquisition of a business. If the screen is not met, then the amendment requires that, to be considered a business, the operation must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create an output. The guidance may reduce the number of transactions accounted for as business acquisitions. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU No. 2017-01 to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods, with early adoption permitted. The amendment should be applied prospectively, and no disclosures are required at the effective date. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2017-01.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” In the new standard, the FASB modified its determination of whether a contract is a lease rather than whether a lease is a capital or operating lease under current accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). A contract represents a lease if a transfer of control occurs over an identified property, plant and equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset includes the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct its use. The FASB continued to maintain two classifications of leases - financing and operating - which are substantially similar to capital and operating leases under current guidance. Under the new standard, assets and liabilities arising from operating leases will require recognition on the balance sheet. The effect of all leases in the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows will be largely unchanged. Lessor accounting will also be largely unchanged. Additional disclosures will be required for financing and operating leases for both lessors and lessees. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU No. 2016-02 for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to adopt the ASU using a modified retrospective approach, subject to certain optional practical expedients, and apply its provisions to leasing arrangements existing at or entered into after the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02 and assessing its impact on our financial statements. As part of our assessment work-to-date, we have formed an implementation team, commenced identification of our lease population and are evaluating lease software packages.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” to meet its objective of providing more decision-useful information about financial instruments. The majority of this ASU’s provisions amend only the presentation or disclosures of financial instruments; however, one provision affects net income. Equity investments carried under the cost method or lower of cost or fair value method of accounting, in accordance with current GAAP, will have to be carried at fair value upon adoption of ASU No. 2016-01, with changes in fair value recorded in net income. For equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values, a company may elect to carry such investments at cost less impairments, if any, adjusted up or down for price changes in similar financial instruments issued by the investee, when and if observed. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU No. 2016-01 for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption prohibited. We are currently evaluating the provisions of ASU No. 2016-01. Our initial review indicates that ASU No. 2016-01 will have a limited impact on our financial statements.


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” This ASU and other related updates issued are intended to improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets and expand disclosure requirements. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date.” The amendment in this ASU defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities for one year. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. As part of our assessment work-to-date, we have formed an implementation team, completed training on the new ASU’s revenue recognition model and are continuing our contract review and documentation. Our expectation is to adopt the standard on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective application. Our evaluation of the new ASU is ongoing, which includes understanding the impact of adoption on earnings from equity method investments and revenue generated by lease arrangements. Based on our analysis to-date, we have not identified any material impact on our financial statements, other than disclosure.


OUTLOOK

Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition
On September 19, 2017, we entered into a Contribution, Conveyance and Assumption Agreement (CCAA) with subsidiaries of Phillips 66 for us to acquire an indirect 25 percent interest in each of Dakota Access, LLC and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Company, LLC (together, Dakota/ETCO) and a direct 100 percent interest in Merey Sweeny, L.P. (MSLP and the acquisitions pursuant to the CCAA, collectively, the Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition).

The assets owned by Dakota/ETCO and MSLP are described below:

Dakota/ETCO owns the Bakken Pipeline, which includes 1,926 combined pipeline miles which has 520,000 barrels per day (BPD) of crude oil capacity expandable to 570,000 BPD. There are receipt stations in North Dakota to access Bakken and Three Forks production, a delivery and receipt point in Patoka, Illinois, and delivery points in Nederland, Texas, including at the Phillips 66 Beaumont Terminal. The pipeline, which commenced commercial operations on June 1, 2017, is supported by long-term, fee-based contracts.

MSLP owns a 125,000 BPD capacity vacuum distillation unit and a 70,000 BPD capacity delayed coker unit. MSLP processes residue from heavy sour crude oil into liquid products and fuel-grade petroleum coke at the Phillips 66 Sweeny Refinery in Old Ocean, Texas.

In connection with the closing of the acquisition, MSLP and Phillips 66 entered into an amended and restated tolling services agreement, effective October 1, 2017, with a 15-year term that includes a base throughput fee and a minimum volume commitment from Phillips 66.

The Bakken Pipeline/MSLP Acquisition closed on October 6, 2017. We paid Phillips 66 total consideration of $1.65 billion, consisting of $372 million in cash, the assumption of $588 million of promissory notes payable to Phillips 66 and a $450 term loan under which Phillips 66 was the obligor, and the issuance of 5,005,778 newly issued units, which were allocated as 4,713,113 common units to P66 PDI and 292,665 general partner units to our General Partner to maintain its 2 percent general partner interest.
