Operations And Organization [Abstract] | |
Operations And Organization | OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION : The consolidated financial statements presented herein contain the results of Energy Transfer LP and its subsidiaries (the “Partnership,” “we,” “us,” “our” or “Energy Transfer”). On April 1, 2021, Energy Transfer, ETO and certain of ETO’s subsidiaries consummated several internal reorganization transactions (the “Rollup Mergers”). In connection with the Rollup Mergers, ETO merged with and into Energy Transfer, with Energy Transfer surviving. The impacts of the Rollup Mergers also included the following: • All of ETO’s long-term debt was assumed by Energy Transfer. • Each issued and outstanding ETO preferred unit was converted into the right to receive one newly created Energy Transfer preferred unit. A description of the Energy Transfer Preferred Units is included in Note 8. • Each of ETO’s issued and outstanding Class K, Class L, Class M and Class N units were converted into an aggregate 675,625,000 newly created Class B Units representing limited partner interests in Energy Transfer. All of the Class B Units are held by ETP Holdco, a wholly owned subsidiary of Energy Transfer. Our consolidated financial statements reflect the following reportable segments: • intrastate transportation and storage; • interstate transportation and storage; • midstream; • NGL and refined products transportation and services; • crude oil transportation and services; • investment in Sunoco LP; • investment in USAC; and • all other. The Partnership owns and operates intrastate natural gas pipeline systems and storage facilities that are engaged in the business of purchasing, gathering, transporting, processing and marketing natural gas and NGLs in the states of Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana. The Partnership also owns and operates interstate pipelines, either directly or through equity method investments, that transport natural gas to various markets in the United States. The Partnership is also engaged in midstream services, focusing on providing gathering, processing, compression, treating and transportation of natural gas in some of the most prolific natural gas producing regions in the United States, including the Permian, Anadarko, Arkoma, Hugoton, Powder River and Williston basins, as well as the Eagle Ford, Haynesville, Barnett, Marcellus and Utica shales. The Partnership’s operations also include crude oil, NGL and refined products transportation, terminalling services, acquisition and marketing activities, as well as NGL storage, fractionation and LNG regasification. The Partnership owns a controlling interest in Sunoco LP which is engaged in the wholesale distribution of motor fuels to convenience stores, independent dealers, commercial customers and distributors, as well as the retail sale of motor fuels and merchandise through Sunoco LP operated convenience stores and retail fuel sites. As of December 31, 2023, our interest in Sunoco LP consisted of 100% of the general partner and IDRs, as well as 28.5 million common units. The Partnership owns a controlling interest in USAC which provides compression services to producers, processors, gatherers and transporters of natural gas and crude oil. As of December 31, 2023, our interest in USAC consisted of 100% of the general partner and 46.1 million common units. Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements of Energy Transfer LP presented herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. We consolidate all majority-owned subsidiaries and limited partnerships, which we control as the general partner or owner of the general partner.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Estimates, Significant Accounting Policies and Balance Sheet Detail | ESTIMATES, SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BALANCE SHEET DETAIL : Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the accrual for and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The natural gas industry conducts its business by processing actual transactions at the end of the month following the month of delivery. Consequently, the most current month’s financial results for the midstream, NGL and intrastate transportation and storage operations are estimated using volume estimates and market prices. Any differences between estimated results and actual results are recognized in the following month’s financial statements. Management believes that the estimated operating results represent the actual results in all material respects. Some of the other significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, the timing of certain forecasted transactions that are hedged, the fair value of derivative instruments, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, purchase accounting allocations and subsequent realizability of intangible assets, fair value measurements used in the goodwill impairment test, market value of inventory, assets and liabilities resulting from the regulated ratemaking process, contingency reserves and environmental reserves. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Regulatory Accounting – Regulatory Assets and Liabilities Our interstate transportation and storage segment is subject to regulation by certain state and federal authorities, and certain subsidiaries in that segment have accounting policies that conform to the accounting requirements and ratemaking practices of the regulatory authorities, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 980. The application of these accounting policies allows certain of our regulated entities to defer expenses and revenues on the balance sheet as regulatory assets and liabilities when it is probable that those expenses and revenues will be allowed in the ratemaking process in a period different from the period in which they would have been reflected in the consolidated statement of operations by an unregulated company. These deferred assets and liabilities will be reported in results of operations in the period in which the same amounts are included in rates and recovered from or refunded to customers. Management’s assessment of the probability of recovery or pass through of regulatory assets and liabilities will require judgment and interpretation of laws and regulatory commission orders. If, for any reason, we cease to meet the criteria for application of regulatory accounting treatment under ASC Topic 980 for these entities, the regulatory assets and liabilities related to those portions ceasing to meet such criteria would be eliminated from the consolidated balance sheet for the period in which the discontinuance of regulatory accounting treatment occurs. Although Panhandle’s natural gas transmission systems and storage operations are subject to the jurisdiction of the FERC in accordance with the NGA and NGPA, Panhandle does not currently apply ASC Topic 980 in its GAAP-basis consolidated financial statements, primarily due to the level of discounting from tariff rates and its inability to recover specific costs. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Supplemental Cash Flow Information Cash and cash equivalents include all cash on hand, demand deposits and investments with original maturities of three months or less. We consider cash equivalents to include short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. We place our cash deposits and temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions. At times, our cash and cash equivalents may be uninsured or in deposit accounts that exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. The net change in operating assets and liabilities, net of effects of acquisitions, included in cash flows from operating activities is comprised as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Accounts receivable $ (171) $ (863) $ (3,356) Accounts receivable from related companies (5) 23 38 Inventories 35 (361) (19) Other current assets 221 (326) (216) Other non-current assets, net (125) 146 1 Accounts payable (501) 25 3,834 Accounts payable to related companies (38) 6 (34) Accrued and other current liabilities 209 131 238 Other non-current liabilities (33) 66 117 Derivative assets and liabilities, net (43) (349) (88) Net change in operating assets and liabilities, net of effects of acquisitions $ (451) $ (1,502) $ 515 Non-cash investing and financing activities and supplemental cash flow information are as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 NON-CASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES: Accrued capital expenditures $ 442 $ 575 $ 464 Units issued in connection with the Enable acquisition (1) — — 3,509 Units issued in connection with the Crestwood acquisition (1) 3,366 — — Units issued in connection with the Lotus Midstream acquisition (1) 574 — — Lease assets obtained in exchange for new lease liabilities 23 42 18 Acquisition of interest in unconsolidated affiliate — — 49 SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION: Cash paid for interest, net of interest capitalized $ 2,298 $ 2,167 $ 2,188 Cash paid for income taxes (net of refunds) 103 54 41 (1) See Note 3 for additional information. Accounts Receivable, net Our operations deal with a variety of counterparties across the energy sector. Internal credit ratings and credit limits are assigned to all counterparties and limits are monitored against credit exposure. Letters of credit or prepayments may be required from those counterparties that are not investment grade depending on the internal credit rating and level of commercial activity with the counterparty. We have a diverse portfolio of customers; however, because of the midstream and transportation services we provide, many of our customers are engaged in the exploration and production sector. We manage trade credit risk to mitigate credit losses and exposure to uncollectible trade receivables. Prospective and existing customers are reviewed regularly for creditworthiness to manage credit risk within approved tolerances. Customers that do not meet minimum credit standards are required to provide additional credit support in the form of a letter of credit, prepayment, or other forms of security. We establish an allowance for credit losses on trade receivables based on the expected ultimate recovery of these receivables and consider many factors including historical customer collection experience, general and specific economic trends, and known specific issues related to individual customers, sectors, and transactions that might impact collectability. Changes in the allowance are recorded as a component of operating expenses; reductions in the allowance are recorded when receivables are subsequently collected or written-off. Past due receivable balances are written-off when our efforts have been unsuccessful in collecting the amount due. Inventories Inventories consist principally of natural gas held in storage, NGLs and refined products, crude oil and spare parts, all of which are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value utilizing the weighted-average cost method. Sunoco LP’s fuel inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the last-in-first-out (“LIFO”) method. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, Sunoco LP’s fuel inventory balance included lower of cost or market reserves of $230 million and $116 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Partnership’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income did not include any material amounts of income from the liquidation of Sunoco LP’s LIFO fuel inventory. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Partnership’s cost of products sold included an unfavorable inventory adjustment of $114 million, a favorable inventory adjustment of $5 million and a favorable inventory adjustment of $190 million, respectively, related to Sunoco LP’s LIFO inventory. The Partnership’s inventories consisted of the following: December 31, 2023 2022 Natural gas, NGLs and refined products $ 1,658 $ 1,802 Crude oil 258 246 Spare parts and other 562 413 Total inventories $ 2,478 $ 2,461 We utilize commodity derivatives to manage price volatility associated with our natural gas inventory. Changes in fair value of designated hedged inventory are recorded in inventory on our consolidated balance sheets and cost of products sold in our consolidated statements of operations. Other Current Assets Other current assets consisted of the following: December 31, 2023 2022 Deposits paid to vendors $ 205 $ 334 Prepaid expenses and other 308 392 Total other current assets $ 513 $ 726 Property, Plant and Equipment, net Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful or FERC-mandated lives of the assets, if applicable. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs that do not add capacity or extend the useful life are expensed as incurred. Expenditures to refurbish assets that either extend the useful lives of the asset or prevent environmental contamination are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset. Additionally, we capitalize certain costs directly related to the construction of assets including internal labor costs, interest and engineering costs. Upon disposition or retirement of pipeline components or natural gas plant components, any gain or loss is recorded to accumulated depreciation. When entire pipeline systems, gas plants or other property and equipment is retired or sold, any gain or loss is included in our consolidated statements of operations. Property, plant and equipment is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If such a review should indicate that the carrying amount of long-lived assets is not recoverable, we reduce the carrying amount of such assets to fair value. For the years ended December 31 2023, 2022 and 2021, USAC recognized fixed asset impairments of $12 million, $1 million and $5 million, respectively, related to its compression equipment as a result of its evaluation of the future deployment of idle fleet. Capitalized interest is included for pipeline construction projects, except for certain interstate projects for which an allowance for funds used during construction (“AFUDC”) is accrued. Interest is capitalized based on the current borrowing rate of our revolving credit facilities when the related costs are incurred. AFUDC is calculated under guidelines prescribed by the FERC and capitalized as part of the cost of utility plant for interstate projects. It represents the cost of servicing the capital invested in construction work-in-process. AFUDC is segregated into two component parts – borrowed funds and equity funds. Components and useful lives of property, plant and equipment were as follows: December 31, 2023 2022 Land and improvements $ 1,529 $ 1,427 Buildings and improvements (1 to 45 years) 3,848 3,546 Pipelines and equipment (5 to 83 years) 88,195 82,353 Product storage and related facilities (2 to 83 years) 7,978 7,274 Right of way (20 to 83 years) 7,379 6,252 Other (1 to 48 years) 3,688 2,739 Construction work-in-process 2,315 2,405 114,932 105,996 Less – Accumulated depreciation and depletion (29,581) (25,685) Property, plant and equipment, net $ 85,351 $ 80,311 We recognized the following amounts for the periods presented: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense $ 3,986 $ 3,774 $ 3,465 Capitalized interest 77 112 135 Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates We own interests in a number of related businesses that are accounted for by the equity method. In general, we use the equity method of accounting for an investment for which we exercise significant influence over, but do not control, the investee’s operating and financial policies. An impairment of an investment in an unconsolidated affiliate is recognized when circumstances indicate that a decline in the investment value is other than temporary. Other Non-Current Assets, net Other non-current assets, net are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Other non-current assets, net consisted of the following: December 31, 2023 2022 Crude pipeline linefill and tank bottoms $ 598 $ 489 Regulatory assets 48 55 Pension assets 145 129 Deferred charges 148 140 Restricted funds 121 121 Other 673 624 Total other non-current assets, net $ 1,733 $ 1,558 Restricted funds include an immaterial amount of restricted cash primarily held in our wholly owned captive insurance companies. Intangible Assets, net Intangible assets are stated at cost, net of amortization computed on the straight-line method. The Partnership removes the gross carrying amount and the related accumulated amortization for any fully amortized intangibles in the year they are fully amortized. Components and useful lives of intangible assets were as follows: December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 Gross Carrying Accumulated Gross Carrying Accumulated Amortizable intangible assets: Customer relationships, contracts and agreements (3 to 46 years) $ 9,098 $ (3,196) $ 7,884 $ (2,807) Patents (10 years) 48 (48) 48 (48) Trade names (20 years) 66 (44) 66 (41) Other (5 to 20 years) 12 (11) 12 (13) Total amortizable intangible assets 9,224 (3,299) 8,010 (2,909) Non-amortizable intangible assets: Trademarks 302 — 302 — Other 12 — 12 — Total non-amortizable intangible assets 314 — 314 — Total intangible assets $ 9,538 $ (3,299) $ 8,324 $ (2,909) Aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets was as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Reported in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense $ 399 $ 390 $ 352 Estimated aggregate amortization of intangible assets for the next five years is as follows: Years Ending December 31: 2024 $ 434 2025 423 2026 417 2027 400 2028 397 We review amortizable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If such a review should indicate that the carrying amount of amortizable intangible assets is not recoverable, we reduce the carrying amount of such assets to fair value. We review non-amortizable intangible assets for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances dictate. Goodwill Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The annual impairment test was performed during the fourth quarter. Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill were as follows: Intrastate Interstate Midstream NGL and Refined Products Transportation and Services Crude Oil Transportation and Services Investment in Sunoco LP Investment in USAC All Other Total Balance, December 31, 2021 $ — $ — $ — $ 693 $ 190 $ 1,568 $ — $ 82 $ 2,533 Acquired — — — — — 33 — — 33 Balance, December 31, 2022 — — — 693 190 1,601 — 82 2,566 Acquired — — 601 191 663 — — — 1,455 Other — — — — — (2) — — (2) Balance, December 31, 2023 $ — $ — $ 601 $ 884 $ 853 $ 1,599 $ — $ 82 $ 4,019 Goodwill is recorded at the acquisition date based on a preliminary purchase price allocation and generally may be adjusted when the purchase price allocation is finalized. During the fourth quarter of 2023, $1.46 billion of goodwill was recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of Crestwood, which is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. In 2022, Sunoco LP recorded $33 million of goodwill in conjunction with its acquisitions. The Partnership determines the fair value of our reporting units using the discounted cash flow method, the guideline company method, or a weighted combination of the discounted cash flow method and the guideline company method. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit requires judgment and the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates, operating margins, weighted average costs of capital and future market conditions, among others. The Partnership believes the estimates and assumptions used in our impairment assessments are reasonable and based on available market information, but variations in any of the assumptions could result in materially different calculations of fair value and determinations of whether or not an impairment is indicated. Under the discounted cash flow method, the Partnership determines fair value based on estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit including estimates for capital expenditures, discounted to present value using the risk-adjusted industry rate, which reflect the overall level of inherent risk of the reporting unit. Cash flow projections are derived from one year budgeted amounts and five year operating forecasts plus an estimate of later period cash flows, all of which are evaluated by management. Subsequent period cash flows are developed for each reporting unit using growth rates that management believes are reasonably likely to occur. Under the guideline company method, the Partnership determines the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units by applying valuation multiples of comparable publicly-traded companies to each reporting unit’s projected EBITDA and then averaging that estimate with similar historical calculations using a three year average. In addition, the Partnership estimates a reasonable control premium representing the incremental value that accrues to the majority owner from the opportunity to dictate the strategic and operational actions of the business. The fair value estimates used in the long-lived asset and goodwill tests were primarily based on Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Management does not believe that any of the goodwill balances in its reporting units is currently at significant risk of impairment; however, of the $4.02 billion of goodwill on the Partnership’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, approximately $368 million is recorded in reporting units for which the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying value by approximately 20% or less in the most recent quantitative test. Asset Retirement Obligations We have determined that we are obligated by contractual or regulatory requirements to remove facilities or perform other remediation upon retirement of certain assets. The fair value of any ARO is determined based on estimates and assumptions related to retirement costs, which the Partnership bases on historical retirement costs, future inflation rates and credit-adjusted risk-free interest rates. These fair value assessments are considered to be Level 3 measurements, as they are based on both observable and unobservable inputs. Changes in the liability are recorded for the passage of time (accretion) or for revisions to cash flows originally estimated to settle the ARO. An ARO is required to be recorded when a legal obligation to retire an asset exists and such obligation can be reasonably estimated. We will record an ARO in the periods in which management can reasonably estimate the settlement dates. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, other non-current liabilities in the Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets included AROs of $410 million and $362 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 aggregate accretion expense related to AROs was $10 million, $4 million and $12 million, respectively. Except for the AROs discussed above, management was not able to reasonably measure the fair value of AROs as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, in most cases because the settlement dates were indeterminable. Although a number of onshore assets in our systems are subject to agreements or regulations that give rise to an ARO upon discontinued use of these assets, AROs were not recorded because these assets have an indeterminate removal or abandonment date given the expected continued use of the assets with proper maintenance or replacement. Our subsidiaries also have legal obligations for several other assets at previously owned refineries, pipelines and terminals, for which it is not possible to estimate when the obligations will be settled. Consequently, the retirement obligations for these assets cannot be measured at this time. At the end of the useful life of these underlying assets, our subsidiaries are legally or contractually required to abandon in place or remove the asset. We believe we may have additional AROs related to pipeline assets and storage tanks, for which it is not possible to estimate whether or when the AROs will be settled. Consequently, these AROs cannot be measured at this time. Sunoco LP also has AROs related to the estimated future cost to remove underground storage tanks. Individual component assets have been and will continue to be replaced, but the pipeline and the natural gas gathering and processing systems will continue in operation as long as supply and demand for natural gas exists. Based on the widespread use of natural gas in industrial and power generation activities, management expects supply and demand to exist for the foreseeable future. We have in place a rigorous repair and maintenance program that keeps the pipelines and the natural gas gathering and processing systems in good working order. Therefore, although some of the individual assets may be replaced, the pipelines and the natural gas gathering and processing systems themselves will remain intact indefinitely. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, other non-current assets on the Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets included $31 million and $27 million, respectively, of funds that were legally restricted for the purpose of settling AROs. Accrued and Other Current Liabilities Accrued and other current liabilities consisted of the following: December 31, 2023 2022 Interest payable $ 637 $ 559 Customer advances and deposits 240 222 Accrued capital expenditures 442 575 Accrued wages and benefits 406 376 Taxes payable other than income taxes 646 519 Exchanges payable 163 224 Deferred revenue 312 268 Other 675 586 Total accrued and other current liabilities $ 3,521 $ 3,329 In certain circumstances, customer advances and deposits are received from our customers as prepayments for natural gas deliveries in the following month. Prepayments and security deposits may be required when customers exceed their credit limits or do not qualify for open credit. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Our redeemable noncontrolling interests relate to certain preferred unitholders of our consolidated subsidiaries that have the option to convert their preferred units to such subsidiary’s common units at the election of the holders and the noncontrolling interest holders in our consolidated subsidiaries that have the option to sell their interests to us. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the noncontrolling interest is excluded from total equity and reflected as redeemable noncontrolling interests on our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 7 for further information. Environmental Remediation We accrue environmental remediation costs for work at identified sites where an assessment has indicated that cleanup costs are probable and reasonably estimable. Such accruals are undiscounted and are based on currently available information, estimated timing of remedial actions and related inflation assumptions, existing technology and presently enacted laws and regulations. If a range of probable environmental cleanup costs exists for an identified site, the minimum of the range is accrued unless some other point in the range is more likely in which case the most likely amount in the range is accrued. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value. We have commodity derivatives and interest rate derivatives that are accounted for as assets and liabilities at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. We determine the fair value of our assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement by using the highest possible “level” of inputs. Level 1 inputs are observable quotes in an active market for identical assets and liabilities. We consider the valuation of marketable securities and commodity derivatives transacted through a clearing broker with a published price from the appropriate exchange as a Level 1 valuation. Level 2 inputs are inputs observable for similar assets and liabilities. We consider OTC commodity derivatives entered into directly with third parties as a Level 2 valuation since the values of these derivatives are quoted on an exchange for similar transactions. Additionally, we consider our options transacted through our clearing broker as having Level 2 inputs due to the level of activity of these contracts on the exchange in which they trade. We consider the valuation of our interest rate derivatives as Level 2 as the primary input, the LIBOR or SOFR curve, is based on quotes from an active exchange of futures for the same period as the future interest swap settlements. Level 3 inputs are unobservable. During the year ended December 31, 2023, no transfers were made between any levels within the fair value hierarchy. The following tables summarize the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 based on inputs used to derive their fair values: Fair Value Total Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Assets: Interest rate derivatives $ 6 $ — $ 6 Commodity derivatives: Natural Gas: Basis Swaps FERC/NYMEX 24 24 — Swing Swaps IFERC 20 20 — Fixed Swaps/Futures 77 77 — Forward Physical Contracts 8 — 8 Power: Forwards 57 57 — Futures 8 8 — NGLs – Forwards/Swaps 336 336 — Refined Products – Futures 35 35 — Crude – Forwards/Swaps 45 45 — Total commodity derivatives 610 602 8 Other non-current assets 31 20 11 Total assets $ 647 $ 622 $ 25 Liabilities: Interest rate derivatives $ (4) $ — $ (4) Commodity derivatives: Natural Gas: Basis Swaps IFERC/NYMEX (3) (3) — Swing Swaps IFERC (2) (2) — Fixed Swaps/Futures (16) (16) — Options – Puts (2) (2) — Power: Forwards (56) (56) — Futures (8) (8) — NGL/Refined Products Option - Puts (1) (1) — NGL/Refined Products Option - Calls (1) (1) — NGLs – Forwards/Swaps (316) (316) — Refined Products – Futures (18) (18) — Crude – Forwards/Swaps (37) (37) — Total commodity derivatives (460) (460) — Total liabilities $ (464) $ (460) $ (4) Fair Value Total Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Assets: Interest rate derivatives $ — $ — $ — Commodity derivatives: Natural Gas: Basis Swaps IFERC/NYMEX 60 60 — Swing Swaps IFERC 75 75 — Fixed Swaps/Futures 113 113 — Forward Physical Contracts 10 — 10 Power: Forwards 52 — 52 Futures 3 3 — NGLs – Forwards/Swaps 317 317 — Refined Products – Futures 20 20 — Crude - Forwards/Swaps 38 38 — Total commodity derivatives 688 626 62 Other non-current assets 27 18 9 Total assets $ 715 $ 644 $ 71 Liabilities: Interest rate derivatives $ (23) $ — $ (23) Commodity derivatives: Natural Gas: Basis Swaps IFERC/NYMEX (25) (25) Swing Swaps IFERC (12) (12) — Fixed Swaps/Futures (4) (4) — Forward Physical Contracts (2) — (2) Power: Forwards (51) (51) Futures (3) (3) — NGLs – Forwards/Swaps (358) (358) — Refined Products – Futures (59) (59) — Crude - Forwards/Swaps (12) (12) — Total commodity derivatives (526) (473) (53) Total liabilities $ (549) $ (473) $ (76) Based on the estimated borrowing rates currently available to us and our subsidiaries for loans with similar terms and average maturities, the aggregate fair value and carrying amount of our debt obligations as of December 31, 2023 was $51.93 billion and $52.39 billion, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the aggregate fair value and carrying amount of our debt obligations was $45.42 billion and $48.26 billion, respectively. The fair value of our consolidated debt obligations is a Level 2 valuation based on the observable inputs used for similar liabilities. Contributions in Aid of Construction Costs On certain of our capital projects, third parties are obligated to reimburse us for all or a portion of project expenditures. The majority of such arrangements are associated with pipeline construction and production well tie-ins. Contributions in aid of construction costs (“CIAC”) are netted against our project costs as they are received. Shipping and Handling Costs Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of products sold, except for shipping and handling costs related to fuel consumed for compression and treating which are included in operating expenses. Costs and Expenses Cost of products sold include actual cost of fuel sold, adjusted for the effects of our hedging and other commodity derivative activities, and the cost of appliances, parts and fittings. Operating expenses include all costs incurred to provide products to customers, including compensation for operations personnel, insurance costs, vehicle maintenance, advertising costs, purchasing costs and plant operations. Selling, general and administrative expenses include all partnership related expenses and compensation for executive, partnership and administrative personnel. We record the collection of taxes to be remitted to government authorities on a net basis, except for consumer excise taxes collected by Sunoco LP on sales of refined products and merchandise which are included in both revenues and costs and expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, with no effect on net income. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, excise taxes collected by Sunoco LP were $274 million, $285 million and $332 million, respectively. Issuances of Subsidiary Units We record changes in our ownership interest of our subsidiaries as equity transactions, with no gain or loss recognized in consolidated net income or comprehensive income. For example, upon our subsidiary’s issuance of common units in a public offering, we record any difference between the amount of consideration received or paid and the amount by which the noncontrolling interests are adjusted as a change in partners’ capital. Related Party Transactions The Partnership regularly enters into related party transactions with several of its unconsolidated affiliates. In addition to commercial transactions, these transactions include the provision of certain management services and leases of certain assets. While the Partnership believes that such related party transactions generally reflect market rates, the pricing under such agreements may not be comparable to similar transactions with unaffiliated third parties. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Partnership’s consolidated income statements reflect revenues from related parties of $626 million, $391 million and $410 million, respectively. Income Taxes Energy Transfer is a publicly traded limited partnership and is not taxable for federal and most state income tax purposes. As a result, our earnings or losses, to the extent not included in a taxable subsidiary, for federal and most state purposes are included in the tax returns of the individual partners. Net earnings for financial statement purposes may differ significantly from taxable income reportable to Unitholders as a result of differences between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities, in addition to the allocation requirements related to taxable income under our Partnership Agreement. We do not have access to information regarding each partner’s individual tax basis in our limited partner interests. As a publicly traded limited partnership, we are subject to a statutory requirement that our “qualifying income” (as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, related Treasury Regulations, and IRS pronouncements) exceed 90% of our total gross income, determined on a calendar year basis. If our qualifying income does not meet this statutory requirement, Energy Transfer would be taxed as a corporation for federal and state incom |

Acquisitions and Related Transactions | ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURES AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS : Crestwood Acquisition On November 3, 2023, Energy Transfer acquired Crestwood, which owns gathering and processing assets located in the Williston, Delaware and Powder River basins. Under the terms of the merger agreement, holders of Crestwood common units received 2.07 Energy Transfer common units for each Crestwood common unit held by them (the “Common Unit Merger Consideration”). Additionally, each outstanding Crestwood preferred unit was, at the election of the holder of such Crestwood preferred unit, either, (i) converted into a Series I Preferred Unit, which is a new preferred unit of Energy Transfer that has substantially similar terms, including with respect to economics and structural protections, as the Crestwood preferred units; (ii) redeemed in exchange for $9.857484 in cash plus accrued and unpaid distributions to the date of such redemption; or (iii) converted into a Crestwood common unit at the then-applicable conversion ratio of one Crestwood common unit for ten Crestwood preferred units, and such Crestwood common units then received the Common Unit Merger Consideration. In total, consideration issued in the transaction included approximately 216 million Energy Transfer common units, 41 million Series I Preferred Units and $300 million in cash. Concurrent with the closing of the Crestwood acquisition, the Partnership assumed $2.85 billion aggregate principal amount of Crestwood senior notes and terminated its revolving credit facility, which included the repayment of $613 million in outstanding borrowings. The Crestwood acquisition was recorded using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized on the balance sheet at their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition with any excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired recorded to goodwill. Determining the fair value of acquired assets requires management’s judgment and the utilization of an independent valuation specialist, if applicable, and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Acquired assets were valued based on a combination of the discounted cash flow, the guideline company and the reproduction and replacement methods. The following table summarizes the assumed allocation of the purchase price among the assets acquired and liabilities assumed: At November 3, 2023 Total current assets $ 657 Property, plant and equipment, net 4,772 Investments in unconsolidated affiliates 95 Lease right-of-use assets, net 27 Other non-current assets 12 Intangible assets, net 1,139 Goodwill 1,455 Total assets 8,157 Total current liabilities 445 Long-term debt, less current maturities 3,461 Other non-current liabilities 322 Total liabilities 4,228 Noncontrolling interests 272 Total consideration 3,657 Cash received 12 Total consideration, net of cash received $ 3,645 Lotus Midstream Acquisition On May 2, 2023, Energy Transfer acquired Lotus Midstream for total consideration of $1.50 billion, including working capital. Consideration included $930 million in cash and approximately 44.5 million newly issued Energy Transfer common units, which had an aggregate acquisition-date fair value of $574 million. Lotus Midstream owns and operates Centurion Pipeline Company LLC, an integrated crude midstream platform located in the Permian Basin.

The system, which is located in the heart of the SCOOP play, has 450 MMcf/d of cryogenic gas processing and treating capacity and over 200 miles of gathering lines, which are connected to Energy Transfer’s pipeline network. Woodford Express, LLC repaid aggregate principal of $292 million on its revolving credit facility and term loan on the closing date of the acquisition, which amount is included in the total consideration. Energy Transfer Canada Sale In August 2022, the Partnership completed the sale of its 51% interest in Energy Transfer Canada. The sale resulted in cash proceeds to Energy Transfer of $302 million. Energy Transfer Canada’s assets and operations were included in the Partnership’s all other segment until August 2022. Energy Transfer Canada did not meet the criteria to be reflected as discontinued operations in the Partnership’s consolidated statement of operations. Based on the anticipated proceeds upon signing of the share purchase agreement in February 2022, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Partnership recorded a write-down on Energy Transfer Canada’s assets of $300 million, of which $164 million was allocated to noncontrolling interests and $136 million was reflected in net income attributable to partners. Upon the completion of the sale in August 2022, the Partnership recorded an $85 million loss on deconsolidation. Spindletop Assets Purchase In March 2022, the Partnership purchased the membership interests in Caliche Coastal Holdings, LLC (subsequently renamed Energy Transfer Spindletop LLC), which owns an underground storage facility near Mont Belvieu, Texas, for approximately $325 million. Enable Acquisition On December 2, 2021, the Partnership completed the previously announced merger with Enable. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Enable’s common unitholders received 0.8595 of an Energy Transfer common unit in exchange for each Enable common unit. In addition, each outstanding Enable Series A preferred unit was exchanged for 0.0265 of an Energy Transfer Series G Preferred Unit. A total of 384,780 Series G Preferred Units were issued in connection with the Enable acquisition. The total fair value of Energy Transfer common units and Series G Preferred Units issued was approximately $3.5 billion at the closing date. Energy Transfer also made a $10 million cash payment for Enable’s general partner and assumed $3.18 billion aggregate principal amount of Enable senior notes. In addition, Enable’s $800 million term loan and $35 million revolving credit facility were repaid and terminated in December 2021, immediately subsequent to the close of the Enable acquisition. The Enable acquisition was recorded using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized on the balance sheet at their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition with any excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired recorded to goodwill. Determining the fair value of acquired assets requires management’s judgment and the utilization of an independent valuation specialist, if applicable, and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Acquired assets were valued based on a combination of the discounted cash flow, the guideline company and the reproduction and replacement methods. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price among the assets acquired and liabilities assumed: At December 2, 2021 Total current assets $ 593 Property, plant and equipment, net 7,076 Investments in unconsolidated affiliates 40 Other non-current assets 39 Intangible assets, net 440 Goodwill 138 Total assets 8,326 Total current liabilities 488 Long-term debt, less current maturities 4,267 Other non-current liabilities 18 Total liabilities 4,773 Noncontrolling interests 34 Total consideration 3,519 Cash received 61 Total consideration, net of cash received $ 3,458 |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit | NET INCOME PER COMMON UNIT : Basic net income per common unit is computed by dividing net income, after considering the General Partner’s interest, by the weighted average number of limited partner interests outstanding. Diluted net income per common unit is computed by dividing net income (as adjusted as discussed herein), after considering the General Partner’s interest, by the weighted average number of limited partner interests outstanding. For the diluted earnings per share computation, income allocable to the limited partners is reduced, where applicable, for the decrease in earnings from Energy Transfer’s limited partner unit ownership in Sunoco LP and USAC that would have resulted assuming the incremental units related to Sunoco LP’s and USAC’s respective long-term incentive plans, as applicable, had been issued during the respective periods. Such units have been determined based on the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of net income and weighted average units used in computing basic and diluted net income per unit is as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Net income $ 5,294 $ 5,868 $ 6,687 Less: Net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests 60 51 50 Less: Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests 1,299 1,061 1,167 Net income, net of noncontrolling interests 3,935 4,756 5,470 Less: General Partner’s interest in income 3 4 6 Less: Preferred Unitholders’ interest in income 463 422 285 Common Unitholders’ interest in net income $ 3,469 $ 4,330 $ 5,179 Basic Income per Common Unit: Weighted average common units 3,161.7 3,086.8 2,734.4 Basic income per common unit $ 1.10 $ 1.40 $ 1.89 Diluted Income per Common Unit: Common Unitholders’ interest in net income $ 3,469 $ 4,330 $ 5,179 Dilutive effect of equity-based compensation of subsidiaries and distributions to convertible units (1) (2) (2) Diluted income available to Common Unitholders $ 3,468 $ 4,328 $ 5,177 Weighted average common units 3,161.7 3,086.8 2,734.4 Dilutive effect of unvested unit awards 15.5 10.2 5.1 Weighted average common units, assuming dilutive effect of unvested unit awards 3,177.2 3,097.0 2,739.5 Diluted income per common unit $ 1.09 $ 1.40 $ 1.89 |

Covenants Related to Our Credit Agreements The agreements relating to the Senior Notes contain restrictive covenants customary for an issuer with an investment-grade rating from the rating agencies, which covenants include limitations on liens and a restriction on sale-leaseback transactions. The Five-Year Credit Facility contains covenants that limit (subject to certain exceptions) the Partnership’s and certain of the Partnership’s subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things: • incur indebtedness; • grant liens; • enter into mergers; • dispose of assets; • make certain investments; • make Distributions (as defined in the Five-Year Credit Facility) during certain Defaults (as defined in the Five-Year Credit Facility) and during any Event of Default (as defined in the Five-Year Credit Facility); • engage in business substantially different in nature than the business currently conducted by the Partnership and its subsidiaries; • engage in transactions with affiliates; and • enter into restrictive agreements. The applicable margin and rate used in connection with the interest rates and commitment fees, respectively, are based on the credit ratings assigned to our senior, unsecured, non-credit enhanced long-term debt. The applicable margin for eurodollar rate loans under the Five-Year Credit Facility ranges from 1.125% to 2.000% and the applicable margin for base rate loans ranges from 0.125% to 1.000%. The applicable rate for commitment fees under the Five-Year Credit Facility ranges from 0.125% to 0.300%. The Five-Year Credit Facility contains various covenants including limitations on the creation of indebtedness and liens and related to the operation and conduct of our business. The Five-Year Credit Facility also limits us, on a rolling four quarter basis, to a maximum Consolidated Funded Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA ratio, as defined in the underlying credit agreement, of 5.00 to 1.00, which can generally be increased to 5.50 to 1.00 during a Specified Acquisition Period. Our Leverage Ratio was 3.31 to 1.00 at December 31, 2023, as calculated in accordance with the credit agreement. Failure to comply with the various restrictive and affirmative covenants of our revolving credit facilities could require us to pay debt balances prior to scheduled maturity and could negatively impact the Partnership’s or our subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional debt and/or our ability to pay distributions to Unitholders. Covenants Related to Transwestern The agreements relating to the Transwestern senior notes contain certain restrictions that, among other things, limit the incurrence of additional debt, the sale of assets and the payment of dividends and specify a maximum debt to capitalization ratio. Covenants Related to Sunoco LP The Sunoco LP Credit Facility contains various customary representations, warranties, covenants and events of default, including a change of control event of default, as defined therein. Sunoco LP’s Credit Facility requires Sunoco LP to maintain a specified net leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. Covenants Related to USAC The USAC Credit Facility contains covenants that limit (subject to certain exceptions) USAC’s ability to, among other things: • grant liens; • make certain loans or investments; • incur additional indebtedness or guarantee other indebtedness; • enter into transactions with affiliates; • merge or consolidate; • sell our assets; and • make certain acquisitions. The USAC Credit Facility is also subject to the following financial covenants, including covenants requiring USAC to maintain: • a minimum EBITDA to interest coverage ratio; • a ratio of total secured indebtedness to EBITDA within a specified range; and • a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio. Compliance with our Covenants Failure to comply with the various restrictive and affirmative covenants of our revolving credit facilities and note agreements could require us or our subsidiaries to pay debt balances prior to scheduled maturity and could negatively impact the subsidiaries ability to incur additional debt and/or our ability to pay distributions. We and our subsidiaries were in compliance with all requirements, tests, limitations, and covenants related to our debt agreements as of December 31, 2023. |

Partners' Capital Notes [Abstract] | |
Equity | EQUITY: Limited Partners Limited partner interests in the Partnership are represented by Common Units that entitle the holders thereof to the rights and privileges specified in the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership’s Common Units are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended) and are listed for trading on the NYSE. Each holder of a Common Unit is entitled to one vote per unit on all matters presented to the Limited Partners for a vote. In addition, if at any time any person or group (other than the Partnership’s General Partner and its affiliates) owns beneficially 20% or more of all Common Units, any Common Units owned by that person or group may not be voted on any matter and are not considered to be outstanding when sending notices of a meeting of Unitholders (unless otherwise required by law), calculating required votes, determining the presence of a quorum or for other similar purposes under the Partnership Agreement. The Common Units are entitled to distributions of Available Cash as described at “Quarterly Distributions of Available Cash.” Our Partnership Agreement contains specific provisions for the allocation of net earnings and losses to the partners for purposes of maintaining the partner capital accounts. For any fiscal year that the Partnership has net profits, such net profits are first allocated to the General Partner (which currently holds an approximately 0.1% general partner interest) until the aggregate amount of net profits for the current and all prior fiscal years equals the aggregate amount of net losses allocated to the General Partner for the current and all prior fiscal years. Second, such net profits shall be allocated to the Limited Partners pro rata in accordance with their respective sharing ratios. For any fiscal year in which the Partnership has net losses, such net losses shall be first allocated to the Limited Partners in proportion to their respective adjusted capital account balances, as defined by the Partnership Agreement, (before taking into account such net losses) until their adjusted capital account balances have been reduced to zero. Second, all remaining net losses shall be allocated to the General Partner. The General Partner may distribute to the Limited Partners funds of the Partnership that the General Partner reasonably determines are not needed for the payment of existing or foreseeable Partnership obligations and expenditures.

Energy Transfer Class A Units As of December 31, 2023, the Partnership had outstanding 833,486,004 Class A units (“Energy Transfer Class A Units”) representing limited partner interests in the Partnership to the General Partner. The Energy Transfer Class A Units are entitled to vote together with the Partnership’s common units, as a single class, except as required by law. Additionally, Energy Transfer’s Partnership Agreement provides that, under certain circumstances, upon the issuance by the Partnership of additional common units or any securities that have voting rights that are pari passu with the Partnership common units, the Partnership will issue to any holder of Energy Transfer Class A Units additional Energy Transfer Class A Units such that the holder maintains a voting interest in the Partnership that is identical to its voting interest in the Partnership prior to such issuance. The Energy Transfer Class A Units are not entitled to distributions and otherwise have no economic attributes. Energy Transfer Repurchase Program In February 2015, the Partnership announced a common unit repurchase program, whereby the Partnership may repurchase up to $2 billion of Energy Transfer Common Units in the open market at the Partnership’s discretion, subject to market conditions and other factors, and in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. The Partnership did not repurchase any Energy Transfer Common Units under this program in 2023 or 2022. As of December 31, 2023, $880 million remained available to repurchase under the current program. Energy Transfer Distribution Reinvestment Program During the year ended December 31, 2023, distributions of $90 million were reinvested under the distribution reinvestment program. As of December 31, 2023, a total of 4.5 million common units remain available to be issued under the existing registration statement in connection with the distribution reinvestment program.

The Series I Preferred Units, on an as converted basis, have voting rights that are identical to the voting rights of the common units and will vote with the common units as a single class, except that the preferred units are entitled to vote as a separate class on any matter on which all unitholders are entitled to vote that adversely affects the rights, powers, privileges or preferences of the preferred units in relation to Energy Transfer’s other securities outstanding The holders of the Series I Preferred Units are entitled to receive fixed quarterly distributions of $0.2111 per unit. Distributions on the preferred units are paid in cash unless, subject to certain exceptions, (i) there is no distribution being paid on our common units; and (ii) our available cash (as defined in our Partnership Agreement) is insufficient to make a cash distribution to Series I Preferred Unitholders. Upcoming Changes in Preferred Unit Distribution Rates Distributions on the Energy Transfer Series B Preferred Units and Series E Preferred Units are scheduled to begin accruing at a floating rate as follows: Beginning of floating rate period Applicable Spread Tenor spread adjustment Floating rate Series B Preferred Units February 15, 2028 4.155 % 0.26161 % Three-month SOFR Series E Preferred Units May 15, 2024 5.161 % 0.26161 % Three-month SOFR As discussed above, the Partnership expects to redeem the Series E Preferred Units at the beginning of the floating rate period on May 15, 2024. Sale of Common Units by Subsidiaries Energy Transfer on a stand-alone basis (the “Parent Company”) accounts for the difference between the carrying amount of its investment in subsidiaries and the underlying book value arising from issuance of units by subsidiaries (excluding unit issuances to the Parent Company) as a capital transaction. If a subsidiary issues units at a price less than the Parent Company’s carrying value per unit, the Parent Company assesses whether the investment has been impaired, in which case a provision would be reflected in our statement of operations. The Parent Company did not recognize any impairment related to the issuances of subsidiary common units during the periods presented.

These unit awards entitle the recipients of the unit awards to receive, with respect to each Common Unit subject to such award that has not either vested or been forfeited, a cash payment equal to each cash distribution per Common Unit made by us on our Common Units promptly following each such distribution by us to our Unitholders. We refer to these rights as “distribution equivalent rights.” Under our equity incentive plans, our non-employee directors each receive grants with a five-year service vesting requirement. The following table shows the activity of the awards granted to employees and non-employee directors: Number of Units Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Unit Unvested awards as of December 31, 2022 37.7 $ 9.62 Awards granted 10.7 13.78 Awards vested (7.7) 9.22 Awards forfeited (1.6) 9.52 Unvested awards as of December 31, 2023 39.1 $ 10.84 During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, the weighted average grant-date fair value per unit award granted was $13.78, $11.56 and $8.46, respectively, and the total fair value of awards vested was $106 million, $103 million and $52 million, respectively, based on the market price of the respective Common Units as of the vesting date. As of December 31, 2023, a total of 39.1 million unit awards remain unvested, for which Energy Transfer expects to recognize a total of $279 million in compensation expense over a weighted average period of 3.0 years. Cash Restricted Units. The Partnership has also granted cash restricted units, which vest through three years of service. A cash restricted unit entitles the award recipient to receive cash equal to the market value of one Energy Transfer Common Unit upon vesting. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Partnership granted a total of 3.2 million, 3.8 million and 3.9 million cash restricted units, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, a total of 6.9 million cash restricted units were unvested. As of December 31, 2023, the Partnership’s consolidated balance sheet reflected aggregate liabilities of $3.0 million related to cash restricted units. Subsidiary Long-Term Incentive Plans Each of Sunoco LP and USAC has granted restricted or phantom unit awards (collectively, the “Subsidiary Unit Awards”) to employees and directors that entitle the grantees to receive common units of the respective subsidiary. In some cases, at the discretion of the respective subsidiary’s compensation committee, the grantee may instead receive an amount of cash equivalent to the value of common units upon vesting. Substantially all of the Subsidiary Unit Awards are time-vested grants, which generally vest over a three or five-year period, that entitles the grantees of the unit awards to receive an amount of cash equal to the per unit cash distributions made by the respective subsidiaries during the period the restricted unit is outstanding. The following table summarizes the activity of the Subsidiary Unit Awards: Sunoco LP USAC Number of Weighted Average Number of Weighted Average Unvested awards as of December 31, 2022 1.8 $ 34.29 2.1 $ 14.21 Awards granted 0.4 53.37 0.5 23.13 Awards vested (0.6) 28.35 (0.6) 13.29 Awards forfeited — 34.64 (0.1) 17.50 Unvested awards as of December 31, 2023 1.6 $ 41.08 1.9 $ 17.08 The following table summarizes the weighted average grant-date fair value per unit award granted: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Sunoco LP $ 53.37 $ 43.54 $ 37.72 USAC 23.13 18.31 14.92 The total fair value of Subsidiary Unit Awards vested for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $37 million, $26 million and $24 million, respectively, based on the market price of Sunoco LP and USAC common units as of the vesting date. As of December 31, 2023, estimated compensation cost related to Subsidiary Unit Awards not yet recognized was $55 million, and the weighted average period over which this cost is expected to be recognized in expense is 3.5 years. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | INCOME TAXES: As a partnership, we are not subject to United States federal income tax and most state income taxes. However, the Partnership conducts certain activities through corporate subsidiaries which are subject to federal and state income taxes. The components of the federal and state income tax expense (benefit) of our taxable subsidiaries are summarized as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Current expense: Federal $ 56 $ — $ 19 State 44 17 24 Total 100 17 43 Deferred expense (benefit): Federal 227 239 246 State (24) (58) (106) Foreign — 6 1 Total 203 187 141 Total income tax expense $ 303 $ 204 $ 184 Historically, our effective tax rate has differed from the statutory rate primarily due to partnership earnings that are not subject to United States federal and most state income taxes at the partnership level. A reconciliation of income tax expense at the United States statutory rate to the Partnership’s income tax benefit for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 is as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Income tax expense at United States statutory rate $ 1,175 $ 1,275 $ 1,443 Increase (reduction) in income taxes resulting from: Partnership earnings not subject to tax (884) (1,086) (1,211) Noncontrolling interests — 26 — State tax, net of federal tax benefit 47 19 85 Statutory rate change (10) (42) (46) Valuation allowance (3) (4) (63) Uncertain tax positions (14) (3) (34) Dividend received deduction (3) (3) (4) Foreign taxes — 6 1 Other (5) 16 13 Income tax expense $ 303 $ 204 $ 184 Deferred taxes result from the temporary differences between financial reporting carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. The following table summarizes the principal components of the deferred tax assets (liabilities) as follows: December 31, 2023 2022 Deferred income tax assets: Net operating losses and other carryforwards $ 371 $ 603 Other 46 60 Total deferred income tax assets 417 663 Valuation allowance — (19) Net deferred income tax assets 417 644 Deferred income tax liabilities: Property, plant and equipment (232) (218) Investments in affiliates (4,003) (4,010) Trademarks (91) (89) Other (22) (28) Total deferred income tax liabilities (4,348) (4,345) Net deferred income taxes $ (3,931) $ (3,701) As of December 31, 2023, ETP Holdco had a federal net operating loss carryforward of $1.4 billion, that can be carried forward indefinitely. A total of $341 million of the federal net operating loss carryforward is limited under IRC §382. Although we expect to fully utilize the IRC §382 limited federal net operating loss, the amount utilized in a particular year may be limited. As of December 31, 2023, Sunoco Retail LLC, a corporate subsidiary of Sunoco LP, had a state net operating loss carryforward of $75 million, which we expect to fully utilize. Sunoco Retail LLC has no federal net operating loss carryforward. Our corporate subsidiaries have state net operating loss carryforward benefits of $75 million, net of federal tax, some of which expire between 2024 and 2042, while others are carried forward indefinitely. Our corporate subsidiaries have cumulative excess business interest expense of $136 million available for carryforward indefinitely, of which $23 million is limited under IRC §382. The following table sets forth the changes in unrecognized tax benefits: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Balance at beginning of year $ 52 $ 56 $ 90 Reduction attributable to tax positions taken in prior years (9) (4) (34) Settlements (3) — — Balance at end of year $ 40 $ 52 $ 56 As of December 31, 2023, we had $40 million ($38 million after federal income tax benefits) related to tax positions which, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. Our policy is to accrue interest expense and penalties on income tax underpayments (overpayments) as a component of income tax expense. During 2023, we recognized an interest and penalty benefit of $7 million. At December 31, 2023, we have interest and penalties accrued of $11 million, net of tax. In November 2015, the Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court determined in Nextel Communications v. Commonwealth (“Nextel”) that the Pennsylvania limitation on NOL carryforward deductions violated the uniformity clause of the Pennsylvania Constitution and struck the NOL limitation in its entirety. In October 2017, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court affirmed the decision with respect to the uniformity clause violation; however, the Court reversed with respect to the remedy and instead severed the flat-dollar limitation, leaving the percentage-based limitation intact. Nextel subsequently filed a petition for writ of certiorari with the United States Supreme Court, and this was denied on June 11, 2018. Certain Pennsylvania taxpayers have subsequently undertaken litigation in Pennsylvania state courts on issues not addressed by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court in Nextel, specifically, whether the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the United States Constitution and the Remedies Clause of the Pennsylvania Constitution require a court to grant the taxpayer relief. On December 22, 2021, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court found in General Motors Corporation v. Commonwealth (“GM”) that the taxpayer was entitled to meaningful backwards looking relief under the Due Process Clause, meaning the Commonwealth must equalize the taxpayer’s position with taxpayers who were not affected by the NOL cap in place for the year at issue. The Court therefore held the taxpayer was entitled to a refund by calculating its tax for that year with an uncapped NOL deduction. We believe the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s ruling in GM will more likely than not be upheld if challenged by the Commonwealth. ETC Sunoco previously recognized approximately $67 million ($53 million after federal income tax benefits) in tax benefit based on previously filed tax returns and certain previously filed protective claims as relates to its cases currently held pending the Nextel matter. In addition, based upon the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s October 2017 decision, and because of uncertainty in the breadth of the application of the decision, ETC Sunoco previously reserved $34 million ($27 million after federal income tax benefits) against the receivable. Subsequent to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s decision in GM, the reserve has been reversed and the entire tax benefit of $34 million ($27 million after federal income tax benefit) has been recognized by the Partnership. The Partnership’s 2020 U.S. Federal income tax return is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The IRS is auditing Crestwood’s 2020 U.S. Federal income tax return. In general, Energy Transfer and its subsidiaries are no longer subject to examination by the IRS, and most state jurisdictions, for the 2018 and prior tax years. USAC is currently under examination by the IRS for years 2019 and 2020. Energy Transfer and its other subsidiaries also have various state and local income tax returns in the process of examination or administrative appeal in various jurisdictions. We believe the appropriate accruals or unrecognized tax benefits have been recorded for any potential assessment with respect to these examinations. |

Regulatory Matters, Commitments, Contingencies And Environmental Liabilities [Abstract] | |
Commitments Contingencies and Guarantees | REGULATORY MATTERS, COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES: FERC Proceedings Rover – FERC - Stoneman House In late 2016, FERC Enforcement Staff began a non-public investigation related to Rover’s purchase and removal of a potentially historic home (known as the Stoneman House) while Rover’s application for permission to construct the new 711-mile interstate natural gas pipeline and related facilities was pending. On March 18, 2021, FERC issued an Order to Show Cause and Notice of Proposed Penalty (Docket No. IN19-4-000), ordering Rover to explain why it should not pay a $20 million civil penalty for alleged violations of FERC regulations requiring certificate holders to be forthright in their submissions of information to the FERC. Rover filed its answer and denial to the order on June 21, 2021 and a surreply on September 15, 2021. FERC issued an order on January 20, 2022 setting the matter for hearing before an administrative law judge. The hearing was set to commence on March 6, 2023; as explained below, this FERC proceeding has been stayed. On February 1, 2022, Energy Transfer and Rover filed a Complaint for Declaratory Relief in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (“Federal District Court”) seeking an order declaring that FERC must bring its enforcement action in federal district court (instead of before an administrative law judge). Also on February 1, 2022, Energy Transfer and Rover filed an expedited request to stay the proceedings before the FERC administrative law judge pending the outcome of the Federal District Court case. On May 24, 2022, the Federal District Court ordered a stay of the FERC’s enforcement case and the District Court case pending the resolution of two cases pending before the United States Supreme Court. Arguments were heard in those cases on November 7, 2022. On April 14, 2023, the United States Supreme Court held against the government in both cases, finding that the federal district courts had jurisdiction to hear those suits and to resolve the parties’ constitutional challenges. The cases were remanded to the federal district courts for further proceedings. On September 13, 2023 the District Court ordered that the District Court case would be stayed pending the resolution of another case pending before the United States Supreme Court and that the FERC enforcement case would remain stayed. Energy Transfer and Rover intend to vigorously defend this claim. On November 13, 2023, the FERC appealed the District Court order to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. On December 11, 2023, FERC filed a motion to withdraw that appeal, which the Fifth Circuit granted on December 12, 2023. The FERC and District Court proceedings remain stayed pending resolution of the case pending before the United States Supreme Court. A decision on that Supreme Court case is expected by June 2024. Rover – FERC - Tuscarawas In mid-2017, FERC Enforcement Staff began a non-public investigation regarding allegations that diesel fuel may have been included in the drilling mud at the Tuscarawas River horizontal directional drilling (“HDD”) operations. Rover and the Partnership are cooperating with the investigation. In 2019, Enforcement Staff provided Rover with a notice pursuant to Section 1b.19 of the FERC regulations that Enforcement Staff intended to recommend that the FERC pursue an enforcement action against Rover and the Partnership. On December 16, 2021, FERC issued an Order to Show Cause and Notice of Proposed Penalty (Docket No. IN17-4-000), ordering Rover and Energy Transfer to show cause why they should not be found to have violated Section 7(e) of the NGA, Section 157.20 of FERC’s regulations, and the Rover Pipeline Certificate Order, and assessed civil penalties of $40 million. Rover and Energy Transfer filed their answer to this order on March 21, 2022, and Enforcement Staff filed a reply on April 20, 2022. Rover and Energy Transfer filed their surreply to this order on May 13, 2022. FERC has taken no further action on the case since that time. The primary contractor (and one of the subcontractors) responsible for the HDD operations of the Tuscarawas River site have agreed to indemnify Rover and the Partnership for any and all losses, including any fines and penalties from government agencies, resulting from their actions in conducting such HDD operations. Given the stage of the proceedings, the Partnership is unable at this time to provide an assessment of the potential outcome or range of potential liability, if any; however, the Partnership believes the indemnity described above will be applicable to the penalty proposed by Enforcement Staff and intends to vigorously defend itself against the subject claims. Other FERC Proceedings By an order issued on January 16, 2019, the FERC initiated a review of Panhandle’s then existing rates pursuant to Section 5 of the NGA to determine whether the rates charged by Panhandle are just and reasonable and set the matter for hearing. On August 30, 2019, Panhandle filed a general rate proceeding under Section 4 of the NGA. The NGA Section 5 and Section 4 proceedings were consolidated by order of the Chief Judge on October 1, 2019. The initial decision by the administrative law judge was issued on March 26, 2021, and on December 16, 2022, the FERC issued its order on the initial decision. On January 17, 2023, Panhandle and the Michigan Public Service Commission each filed a request for rehearing of FERC’s order on the initial decision, which were denied by operation of law as of February 17, 2023. On March 23, 2023, Panhandle appealed these orders to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (“Court of Appeals”), and the Michigan Public Service Commission also subsequently appealed these orders. On April 25, 2023, the Court of Appeals consolidated Panhandle’s and Michigan Public Service Commission’s appeals and stayed the consolidated appeal proceeding while the FERC further considered the requests for rehearing of its December 16, 2022 order. On September 25, 2023, the FERC issued its order addressing arguments raised on rehearing and compliance, which denied our requests for rehearing. Panhandle has timely filed its Petition for Review with the Court of Appeals regarding the September 25, 2023 order. On October 25, 2023, Panhandle filed a limited request for rehearing of the September 25 order addressing arguments raised on rehearing and compliance, which was subsequently denied by operation of law on November 27, 2023. On November 30, 2023, Panhandle submitted a refund report regarding the consolidated rate proceedings, which has been protested by several parties. On January 5, 2024, the FERC issued a second order addressing arguments raised on rehearing in which it modified certain discussion from its September 25, 2023 order and sustained its prior conclusions. Panhandle has timely filed its Petition for Review with the Court of Appeals regarding the January 5, 2024 order. On December 1, 2022, Sea Robin filed a rate case pursuant to Section 4 of the NGA. By order dated June 29, 2023, a revised procedural schedule was adopted in this proceeding setting the commencement of the hearing for January 9, 2024, with an initial decision anticipated by May 21, 2024. Subsequently, by Order of the Acting Chief Administrative Law Judge, deadlines in the procedural schedule were extended, including revised hearing commencement and initial decisions deadlines to March 26, 2024 and August 8, 2024, respectively. On November 29, 2023, the parties reached a settlement in principle and the settlement was filed with the FERC on December 29, 2023. In May 2021, the FERC commenced an audit of SPLP for the period from January 1, 2018 to present to evaluate SPLP’s compliance with its FERC oil tariffs, the accounting requirements of the Uniform System of Accounts as prescribed by the FERC, and the FERC’s Form No. 6 reporting requirements. An audit report was received in September 2023 noting no issues that would have a material impact on the Partnership's financial position or results of operations. Commitments In the normal course of business, Energy Transfer purchases, processes and sells natural gas pursuant to long-term contracts and enters into long-term transportation and storage agreements. Such contracts contain terms that are customary in the industry. Energy Transfer believes that the terms of these agreements are commercially reasonable and will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s financial position or results of operations. Our joint venture agreements require that we fund our proportionate share of capital contributions to our unconsolidated affiliates. Such contributions will depend upon the unconsolidated affiliates’ capital requirements, such as for funding capital projects or repayment of long-term obligations. We have certain non-cancelable rights-of-way (“ROW”) commitments which require fixed payments and either expire upon our chosen abandonment or at various dates in the future. The following table reflects ROW expense included in operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 ROW expense $ 68 $ 64 $ 48 Litigation and Contingencies We may, from time to time, be involved in litigation and claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. Due to the flammable and combustible nature of natural gas and crude oil, the potential exists for personal injury and/or property damage to occur in connection with their transportation, storage or use. In the ordinary course of business, we are sometimes threatened with or named as a defendant in various lawsuits seeking actual and punitive damages for product liability, personal injury and property damage. We maintain liability insurance with insurers in amounts and with coverage and deductibles management believes are reasonable and prudent, and which are generally accepted in the industry. However, there can be no assurance that the levels of insurance protection currently in effect will continue to be available at reasonable prices or that such levels will remain adequate to protect us from material expenses related to product liability, personal injury or property damage in the future. We or our subsidiaries are parties to various legal proceedings, arbitrations and/or regulatory proceedings incidental to our businesses. For each of these matters, we evaluate the merits of the case, our exposure to the matter, possible legal or settlement strategies, the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome and the availability of insurance coverage. If we determine that an unfavorable outcome of a particular matter is probable and can be estimated, we accrue the contingent obligation, as well as any expected insurance recoverable amounts related to the contingency. As new information becomes available, our estimates may change. The impact of these changes may have a significant effect on our results of operations in a single period. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, accruals of approximately $285 million and $200 million, respectively, were reflected on our consolidated balance sheets related to contingent obligations that met both the probable and reasonably estimable criteria. In addition, we may recognize additional contingent losses in the future related to (i) contingent matters for which a loss is currently considered reasonably possible but not probable and/or (ii) losses in excess of amounts that have already been accrued for such contingent matters. In some of these cases, we are not able to estimate possible losses or a range of possible losses in excess of amounts accrued. For such matters where additional contingent losses can be reasonably estimated, the range of additional losses is estimated to be up to approximately $200 million. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty and there can be no assurance that the outcome of a particular matter will not result in the payment of amounts that have not been accrued for the matter. Furthermore, we may revise accrual amounts or our estimates of reasonably possible losses prior to resolution of a particular contingency based on changes in facts and circumstances or changes in the expected outcome. The following sections include descriptions of certain matters that could impact the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows in future periods. The following sections also include updates to certain matters that have previously been disclosed, even if those matters are not anticipated to have a potentially significant impact on future periods. In addition to the matters disclosed in the following sections, the Partnership is also involved in multiple other matters that could impact future periods, including other lawsuits and arbitration related to the Partnership’s commercial agreements. With respect to such matters, contingencies that met both the probable and reasonably estimable criteria have been included in the accruals disclosed above, and the range of additional losses disclosed above also reflects any relevant amounts for such matters. Dakota Access Pipeline On July 27, 2016, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe (“SRST”) filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia (“District Court”) challenging permits issued by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (“USACE”) that allowed Dakota Access to cross the Missouri River at Lake Oahe in North Dakota. The case was subsequently amended to challenge an easement issued by the USACE that allowed the pipeline to cross land owned by the USACE adjacent to the Missouri River. Dakota Access and the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe (“CRST”) intervened. Separate lawsuits filed by the Oglala Sioux Tribe (“OST”) and the Yankton Sioux Tribe (“YST”) were consolidated with this action and several individual tribal members intervened (collectively, with SRST and CRST, the “Tribes”). On March 25, 2020, the District Court remanded the case back to the USACE for preparation of an Environment Impact Statement (“EIS”). On July 6, 2020, the District Court vacated the easement and ordered the Dakota Access Pipeline to be shut down and emptied of oil by August 5, 2020. Dakota Access and the USACE appealed to the Court of Appeals which granted an administrative stay of the District Court’s July 6 order and ordered further briefing on whether to fully stay the July 6 order. On August 5, 2020, the Court of Appeals (1) granted a stay of the portion of the District Court order that required Dakota Access to shut the pipeline down and empty it of oil, (2) denied a motion to stay the March 25 order pending a decision on the merits by the Court of Appeals as to whether the USACE would be required to prepare an EIS and (3) denied a motion to stay the District Court’s order to vacate the easement during this appeal process. The August 5 order also states that the Court of Appeals expected the USACE to clarify its position with respect to whether USACE intended to allow the continued operation of the pipeline notwithstanding the vacatur of the easement and that the District Court may consider additional relief, if necessary. On August 10, 2020, the District Court ordered the USACE to submit a status report by August 31, 2020, clarifying its position with regard to its decision-making process with respect to the continued operation of the pipeline. On August 31, 2020, the USACE submitted a status report that indicated that it considered the presence of the pipeline at the Lake Oahe crossing without an easement to constitute an encroachment on federal land, and that it was still considering whether to exercise its enforcement discretion regarding this encroachment. The Tribes subsequently filed a motion seeking an injunction to stop the operation of the pipeline and both USACE and Dakota Access filed briefs in opposition of the motion for injunction. The motion for injunction was fully briefed as of January 8, 2021. On January 26, 2021, the Court of Appeals affirmed the District Court’s March 25, 2020 order requiring an EIS and its July 6, 2020 order vacating the easement. In this same January 26 order, the Court of Appeals also overturned the District Court’s July 6, 2020 order that the pipeline shut down and be emptied of oil. Dakota Access filed for rehearing en banc on April 12, 2021, which the Court of Appeals denied. On September 20, 2021, Dakota Access filed a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the case. Oppositions were filed by the Solicitor General (December 17, 2021) and the Tribes (December 16, 2021). Dakota Access filed their reply on January 4, 2022. On February 22, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case. The District Court scheduled a status conference for February 10, 2021 to discuss the effects of the Court of Appeals’ January 26, 2021 order on the pending motion for injunctive relief, as well as USACE’s expectations as to how it will proceed regarding its enforcement discretion regarding the easement. On May 3, 2021, USACE advised the District Court that it had not changed its position with respect to its opposition to the Tribes’ motion for injunction. On May 21, 2021, the District Court denied the plaintiffs’ request for an injunction. On June 22, 2021, the District Court terminated the consolidated lawsuits and dismissed all remaining outstanding counts without prejudice. On September 8, 2023, the USACE published the Draft EIS. Comments to the Draft EIS were due on December 13, 2023. The USACE anticipates that a Final EIS and Record of Decision would be issued in 2024. The pipeline continues to operate pending completion of the EIS. Energy Transfer cannot determine when or how future lawsuits will be resolved or the impact they may have on the Bakken Pipeline, which consists of both Dakota Access and the Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline; however, Energy Transfer expects that after the law and complete record are fully considered, any such proceeding will be resolved in a manner that will allow the pipeline to continue to operate. In addition, lawsuits and/or regulatory proceedings or actions of this or a similar nature could result in interruptions to construction or operations of current or future projects, delays in completing those projects and/or increased project costs, all of which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Louisiana Dispute with New Generation Gas Gathering LLC On August 31, 2023, Energy Partners, LP and ETC Texas Pipeline, LTD—corrected the next day to be ETC Texas Pipeline, Ltd, Gulf Run Transmission LLC, Enable Midstream Partners LP and ETC Tiger Pipeline LLC (collectively “Energy Transfer”), filed a petition for declaratory judgment against New Generation Gas Gathering LLC (“NG3”) in the 42nd Judicial District Court of DeSoto Parish, Louisiana. In relation to seven specific servitudes in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana underlying Energy Transfer natural gas pipelines, Energy Transfer requested declarations from the Court that pursuant to Louisiana Civil Code Article 720, NG3 must obtain Energy Transfer’s permission to install NG3’s proposed pipelines across the Energy Transfer servitudes so that Energy Transfer may determine if NG3’s proposed installation of its proposed pipelines would interfere with Energy Transfer’s use of its existing servitudes. On November 13, 2023, NG3 filed its answer and reconventional demand, a Louisiana term for counterclaim, asserting six causes of action against of all the entities asserting the claim as well as Energy Transfer LP. In Count I, NG3 seeks declaratory judgment that Energy Transfer lacks the right to object to its proposed crossings of Energy Transfer’s natural gas pipelines that adversely affect Energy Transfer. In Counts II–VI, NG3 asserts five causes of action alleging that Energy Transfer’s objection and lawsuit seeking court determination that it has the right to object to NG3’s request to cross Energy Transfer’s pipelines more than one hundred times constitutes tortious conduct, an abuse of Energy Transfer’s rights, an unfair trade practice, and a violation of Louisiana Monopolies Act sections prohibiting conspiracies and monopolies/attempted monopolies. On December 7, 2023, the trial court set the deadline for Energy Transfer to respond to NG3’s reconventional demand as February 9, 2024, set a hearing on any exceptions for March 25, 2024, and tentatively set a trial date for September 9, 2024. The parties have begun written discovery. The Court’s schedule is subject to dispute among the parties and has not yet been resolved by the Court. On February 7, 2024, the Attorney General for the State of Louisiana, Public Protection Division (the “AG”) gave notice of a complaint filed by NG3. NG3 asserts that Energy Transfer violated Louisiana Revised Statutes 51:1401, et seq., the Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law. The AG has not investigated this matter and it makes no determination as to the merits of same. Energy Transfer cannot predict the ultimate outcome of this litigation but intends to vigorously defend themselves. Mont Belvieu Incident On June 26, 2016, a hydrocarbon storage well located on another operator’s facility adjacent to Lone Star NGL Mont Belvieu LP’s (“Lone Star,” now known as Energy Transfer Mont Belvieu NGLs LP) facilities in Mont Belvieu, Texas experienced an over-pressurization resulting in a subsurface release. The subsurface release caused a fire at Lone Star’s South Terminal and damage to Lone Star’s storage well operations at its South and North Terminals. Normal operations resumed at the facilities in the fall of 2016, with the exception of one of Lone Star’s storage wells at the North Terminal that has not been returned to service. Lone Star has obtained payment for most of the losses it has submitted to the adjacent operator. Lone Star continues to quantify and seek reimbursement for outstanding losses. MTBE Litigation ETC Sunoco and Energy Transfer R&M (collectively, “Sunoco Defendants”) are defendants in lawsuits alleging MTBE contamination of groundwater. The plaintiffs, state-level governmental entities, assert product liability, nuisance, trespass, negligence, violation of environmental laws and/or deceptive business practices claims. The plaintiffs seek to recover compensatory damages, and in some cases also seek natural resource damages, injunctive relief, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. As of December 31, 2023, Sunoco Defendants are defendants in two cases: one case initiated by the State of Maryland and one by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The actions brought also named as defendants ETO, ETP Holdco Corporation and Sunoco Partners Marketing & Terminals L.P., now known as Energy Transfer Marketing & Terminals L.P. ETP Holdco Corporation and Energy Transfer Marketing & Terminals L.P. are wholly owned subsidiaries of Energy Transfer. It is reasonably possible that a loss may be realized in the remaining cases; however, we are unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss in excess of amounts accrued. An adverse determination with respect to one or more of the MTBE cases could have a significant impact on results of operations during the period in which any such adverse determination occurs, but such an adverse determination likely would not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position. Litigation Filed By or Against Williams In April and May 2016, The Williams Companies, Inc. (“Williams”) filed two lawsuits (the “Williams Litigation”) against Energy Transfer, LE GP, LLC, and, in one of the lawsuits, Energy Transfer Corp LP, ETE Corp GP, LLC, and Energy Transfer Equity GP, LLC (collectively, “Energy Transfer Defendants”) in the Delaware Court of Chancery (“the Court”), alleging that the Energy Transfer Defendants breached their obligations under the Energy Transfer-Williams merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”). In general, Williams alleges that the Energy Transfer Defendants breached the Merger Agreement by (a) failing to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from Latham & Watkins LLP (“Latham”) the delivery of a tax opinion concerning Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code (“721 Opinion”), (b) issuing the Partnership’s Series A convertible preferred units (the “Issuance”) and (c) making allegedly untrue representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement. Williams asked the Court to compel the Energy Transfer Defendants to close the merger or take various other affirmative actions. After a two-day trial on June 20 and 21, 2016, the Court ruled in favor of the Energy Transfer Defendants and issued a declaratory judgment that Energy Transfer could terminate the merger after June 28, 2016 because of Latham’s inability to provide the required 721 Opinion. The Court did not reach a decision regarding Williams’ claims related to the Issuance or certain of the alleged untrue representations and warranties. On March 23, 2017, the Delaware Supreme Court affirmed this ruling on the June 2016 trial. In September 2016, the parties filed amended pleadings. Williams filed an amended complaint seeking a $410 million termination fee (the “Termination Fee”) based on the alleged breaches of the Merger Agreement listed above. The Energy Transfer Defendants filed amended counterclaims and affirmative defenses, asserting that Williams materially breached the Merger Agreement by, among other things, (a) modifying and qualifying its board recommendation in a manner adverse to the merger, (b) failing to use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the merger, (c) failing to provide material information to Energy Transfer for inclusion in the Form S-4 related to the merger, (d) failing to facilitate the financing of the merger and (e) breaching the Merger Agreement’s forum-selection clause. The Energy Transfer Defendants sought a $1.48 billion termination fee under the Merger Agreement and additional damages caused by Williams’ misconduct. On September 29, 2016, Williams filed a motion to dismiss the Energy Transfer Defendants’ amended counterclaims and to strike certain of the Energy Transfer Defendants’ affirmative defenses. On December 1, 2017, the Court issued a Memorandum Opinion granting in part and denying in part Williams’ motion to dismiss. The Court dismissed, among other things, the Energy Transfer Defendants’ claim for a $1.48 billion termination fee. Trial was held on all remaining claims on May 10-17, 2021, and on December 29, 2021, the Court ruled in favor of Williams and awarded it the Termination Fee plus certain fees and expenses, holding that the Issuance breached the Merger Agreement and that Williams had not materially breached the Merger Agreement, though the Court awarded sanctions against Williams due to its CEO’s intentional spoliation of evidence. The Court subsequently awarded Williams approximately $190 million in attorneys’ fees, expenses and pre-judgment interest. On September 21, 2022, the Court entered a final judgment against the Energy Transfer Defendants in the amount of approximately $601 million plus post-judgment interest at a rate of 3.5% per year, compounded quarterly. The Energy Transfer Defendants filed a notice of appeal on October 21, 2022 and filed their opening brief in support of their appeal on December 30, 2022. Williams filed their answering brief on January 20, 2023, and the Energy Transfer Defendants filed their reply brief on February 6, 2023. The Delaware Supreme Court heard oral argument on July 12, 2023. On October 10, 2023, the Delaware Supreme Court affirmed. On October 25, 2023, Energy Transfer Defendants filed a motion for reargument. On November 17, 2023, the Delaware Supreme Court denied the motion. The mandate issued upon the disposition of that motion; at which time the previously-stayed judgment became effective, plus additional post-judgment interest. The Energy Transfer Defendants paid the judgment (in the amount of approximately $627 million) on November 28, 2023, concluding this matter. Rover - State of Ohio On November 3, 2017, the State of Ohio and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (“Ohio EPA”) filed suit against Rover and other defendants (collectively, the “Defendants”) seeking to recover approximately $2.6 million in civil penalties allegedly owed and certain injunctive relief related to permit compliance. The Defendants filed several motions to dismiss, which were granted on all counts. The Ohio EPA appealed, and on December 9, 2019, the Fifth District Court of Appeals entered a unanimous judgment affirming the trial court. The Ohio EPA sought review from the Ohio Supreme Court. On April 22, 2020, the Ohio Supreme Court granted the review. On March 17, 2022, the Ohio Supreme Court reversed in part and remanded to the Ohio trial court. The Ohio Supreme Court agreed with Rover that the State of Ohio had waived its rights under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act but remanded to the trial court to determine whether any of the allegations fell outside the scope of the waiver. On remand, the Ohio EPA voluntarily dismissed four of the other five defendants and dismissed one of its counts against Rover. In its Fourth Amended Complaint, the Ohio EPA removed all paragraphs that alleged violations by the four dismissed defendants, including those where the dismissed defendants were alleged to have acted jointly with Rover or others. At a June 2, 2022, status conference, the trial judge set a schedule for Rover and the other remaining defendant to file motions to dismiss the Fourth Amended Complaint. On August 1, 2022, Rover and the other remaining defendant each filed their respective motions. Briefing on those motions was completed on November 4, 2022. By order issued on October 20, 2023, the trial judge dismissed the Ohio EPA’s Fourth Amended Complaint. On November 17, 2023, the State of Ohio appealed the trial judge’s decision to Ohio’s Fifth District Court of Appeals. The State filed its initial brief on January 8, 2024 and Energy Transfer’s and Rover’s responsive brief is currently due February 20, 2024. Energy Transfer and Rover intend to vigorously defend this claim. Unitholder Litigation Regarding Pipeline Construction Various purported unitholders of Energy Transfer have filed derivative actions against various past and current members of Energy Transfer’s Board of Directors, LE GP, LLC, and Energy Transfer, as a nominal defendant that assert claims for breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, waste of corporate assets, breach of Energy Transfer’s Partnership Agreement, tortious interference, abuse of control and gross mismanagement related primarily to matters involving the construction of pipelines in Pennsylvania and Ohio. They also seek damages and changes to Energy Transfer’s corporate governance structure. See Bettiol v. LE GP, Case No. 3:19-cv-02890-X (N.D. Tex.); Davidson v. Kelcy L. Warren, Cause No. DC-20-02322 (44th Judicial District of Dallas County, Texas); Harris v. Kelcy L. Warren, Case No. 2:20-cv-00364-GAM (E.D. Pa.); Barry King v. LE GP, Case No. 3:20-cv-00719-X (N.D. Tex.); Inter-Marketing Group USA, Inc. v. LE GP, et al., Case No. 2022-0139-SG (Del. Ch.); Elliot v. LE GP LLC, Case No. 3:22-cv-01527-B (N.D. Tex.); Chapa v. Kelcy L. Warren, et al., Index No. 611307/2022 (N.Y. Sup. Ct.); Elliott v. LE GP et al, Cause No. DC-22-14194 (Dallas County, Tex.); and Charles King v. LE GP, LLC et al, Cause No. DC-22-14159 (Dallas County, Texas). The Barry King action that was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Case No. 3:20-cv-00719-X) has been consolidated with the Bettiol action. On August 9, 2022, the Elliot action that was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (Case No. 3:22-cv-01527-B) was voluntarily dismissed. Another purported unitholder of Energy Transfer, Allegheny County Employees’ Retirement System (“ACERS”), individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a suit under the federal securities laws purportedly on behalf of a class, against Energy Transfer and three of Energy Transfer’s directors: Kelcy L. Warren, John W. McReynolds and Thomas E. Long. See Allegheny County Emps.’ Ret. Sys. v. Energy Transfer LP, Case No. 2:20-00200-GAM (E.D. Pa.). On June 15, 2020, ACERS filed an amended complaint and added as additional defendants Energy Transfer directors Marshall S. McCrea and Matthew S. Ramsey, as well as Michael J. Hennigan and Joseph McGinn. The amended compl |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block] | REVENUE: Disaggregation of revenue The major types of revenue within our reportable segments are as follows: • intrastate transportation and storage; • interstate transportation and storage; • midstream; • NGL and refined products transportation and services; • crude oil transportation and services; • investment in Sunoco LP; • fuel distribution and marketing; • all other; • investment in USAC; • contract operations; • retail parts and services; and • all other. Note 16 depicts the disaggregation of revenue by segment, with revenue amounts reflected in accordance with ASC Topic 606. Intrastate transportation and storage revenue Our intrastate transportation and storage segment’s revenues are determined primarily by the volume of capacity our customers reserve as well as the actual volume of natural gas that flows through the transportation pipelines or that is injected or withdrawn into or out of our storage facilities. Firm transportation and storage contracts require customers to pay certain minimum fixed fees regardless of the volume of commodity they transport or store. These contracts typically include a variable incremental charge based on the actual volume of transportation commodity throughput or stored commodity injected/withdrawn. Under interruptible transportation and storage contracts, customers are not required to pay any fixed minimum amounts, but are instead billed based on actual volume of commodity they transport across our pipelines or inject/withdraw into or out of our storage facilities. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (transportation or storage) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. The performance obligation with respect to interruptible contracts is also a promise to provide a single type of service, but such promise is made on a case-by-case basis at the time the customer requests the service and we accept the customer’s request. Revenue is recognized for interruptible contracts at the time the services are performed. Our intrastate transportation and storage segment also generates revenues and margin from the sale of natural gas to electric utilities, independent power plants, local distribution companies, industrial end-users and other marketing companies on the HPL System. Generally, we purchase natural gas from the market, including purchases from our marketing operations, and from producers at the wellhead. Interstate transportation and storage revenue Our interstate transportation and storage segment’s revenues are determined primarily by the amount of capacity our customers reserve as well as the actual volume of natural gas that flows through the transportation pipelines or that is injected into or withdrawn out of our storage facilities. Our interstate transportation and storage segment’s contracts can be firm or interruptible. Firm transportation and storage contracts require customers to pay certain minimum fixed fees regardless of the volume of commodity transported or stored. In exchange for such fees, we must stand ready to perform a contractually agreed-upon minimum volume of services whenever the customer requests such services. These contracts typically include a variable incremental charge based on the actual volume of transportation commodity throughput or stored commodity injected or withdrawn. Under interruptible transportation and storage contracts, customers are not required to pay any fixed minimum amounts, but are instead billed based on actual volume of commodity they transport across our pipelines or inject into or withdraw out of our storage facilities. Consequently, we are not required to stand ready to provide any contractually agreed-upon volume of service, but instead provides the services based on existing capacity at the time the customer requests the services. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (transportation or storage) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. The performance obligation with respect to interruptible contracts is also a promise to provide a single type of services, but such promise is made on a case-by-case basis at the time the customer requests the service and we accept the customer’s request. Revenue is recognized for interruptible contracts at the time the services are performed. Lake Charles LNG’s revenues are primarily derived from terminalling services for shippers by receiving LNG at the facility for storage and delivering such LNG to shippers, either in liquid state or gaseous state after regasification. Lake Charles LNG derives all of its revenue from a series of long-term contracts with a wholly owned subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc (“Shell”). Terminalling revenue is generated from fees paid by Shell for storage and other associated services at the terminal. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The terminalling agreements are considered to be firm agreements, because they include fixed fee components that are charged regardless of the volumes transported by Shell or services provided at the terminal. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (terminalling) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. Midstream revenue Our midstream segment’s revenues are derived primarily from margins we earn for natural gas volumes that are gathered, processed and/or transported. The various types of revenue contracts our midstream segment enters into include: Fixed fee gathering and processing: Contracts under which we provide gathering and processing services in exchange for a fixed cash fee per unit of volume. Revenue for cash fees is recognized when the service is performed. Keepwhole: Contracts under which we gather raw natural gas from a third-party producer, process the gas to convert it to pipeline quality natural gas, and redeliver to the producer a thermal-equivalent volume of pipeline quality natural gas. In exchange for these services, we retain the NGLs extracted from the raw natural gas received from the producer as well as cash fees paid by the producer. The value of NGLs retained as well as cash fees is recognized as revenue when the services are performed. Percent of Proceeds (“POP”): Contracts under which we provide gathering and processing services in exchange for a specified percentage of the producer’s commodity (“POP percentage”) and also in some cases additional cash fees. The two types of POP revenue contracts are described below: • In-Kind POP: We retain our POP percentage (non-cash consideration) and also any additional cash fees in exchange for providing the services. We recognize revenue for the non-cash consideration and cash fees at the time the services are performed. • Mixed POP: We purchase NGLs from the producer and retain a portion of the residue gas as non-cash consideration for services provided. We may also receive cash fees for such services. Under Topic 606, these agreements were determined to be hybrid agreements which were partially supply agreements (for the NGLs we purchased) and customer agreements (for the services provided related to the product that was returned to the customer). Given that these are hybrid agreements, we split the cash and non-cash consideration between revenue and a reduction of costs based on the value of the service provided vs. the value of the supply received. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The performance obligations with respect to our midstream segment’s contracts are to provide gathering, transportation and processing services, each of which would be completed on or about the same time, and each of which would be recognized on the same line item on the income statement, therefore identification of separate performance obligations would not impact the timing or geography of revenue recognition. Certain contracts of our midstream segment include throughput commitments under which customers commit to purchasing a certain minimum volume of service over a specified time period. If such volume of service is not purchased by the customer, deficiency fees are billed to the customer. In some cases, the customer is allowed to apply any deficiency fees paid to future purchases of services. In such cases, we defer revenue recognition until the customer uses the deficiency fees for services provided or becomes unable to use the fees as payment for future services due to expiration of the contractual period the fees can be applied or physical inability of the customer to utilize the fees due to capacity constraints. Our midstream segment also generates revenues from the sale of residue gas and NGLs at the tailgate of our processing facilities primarily to affiliates and some third-party customers. NGL and refined products transportation and services revenue Our NGL and refined products transportation and services segment’s revenues are primarily derived from transportation, fractionation, blending and storage of NGL and refined products as well as acquisition and marketing activities. Revenues are generated utilizing a complementary network of pipelines, storage and blending facilities, and strategic offtake locations that provide access to multiple NGL markets. Transportation, fractionation and storage revenue is generated from fees charged to customers under a combination of firm and interruptible contracts. Firm contracts are in the form of take-or-pay arrangements where certain fees will be charged to customers regardless of the volume of service they request for any given period. Under interruptible contracts, customers are not required to pay any fixed minimum amounts, but are instead billed based on actual volume of service provided for any given period. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (transportation, fractionation, blending, or storage) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. The performance obligation with respect to interruptible contracts is also a promise to provide a single type of services, but such promise is made on a case-by-case basis at the time the customer requests the service and we accept the customer’s request. Revenue is recognized for interruptible contracts at the time the services are performed. Crude oil transportation and services revenue Our crude oil transportation and services segment’s revenues are primarily derived from providing transportation, terminalling and acquisition and marketing services to crude oil markets throughout the Southwest, Midwest and Northeast United States. Crude oil transportation revenue is generated from tariffs paid by shippers utilizing our transportation services and is generally recognized as the related transportation services are provided. Crude oil terminalling revenue is generated from fees paid by customers for storage and other associated services at the terminal. Crude oil acquisition and marketing revenue is generated from sale of crude oil acquired from a variety of suppliers to third parties. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. Certain transportation and terminalling agreements are considered to be firm agreements, because they include fixed fee components that are charged regardless of the volume of crude oil transported by the customer or services provided at the terminal. For these agreements, any fixed fees billed in excess of services provided are not recognized as revenue until the earlier of (i) the time at which the customer applies the fees against cost of service provided in a later period, or (ii) the customer becomes unable to apply the fees against cost of future service due to capacity constraints or contractual terms. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (transportation or terminalling) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. The performance obligation with respect to interruptible contracts is also a promise to provide a single type of service, but such promise is made on a case-by-case basis at the time the customer requests the service and/or product and we accept the customer’s request. Revenue is recognized for interruptible contracts at the time the services are performed. Sunoco LP’s fuel distribution and marketing revenue Sunoco LP’s fuel distribution and marketing operations earn revenue from the following channels: sales to dealers, sales to distributors, unbranded wholesale revenue, commission agent revenue, rental income and other income. Motor fuel revenue consists primarily of the sale of motor fuel under supply agreements with third party customers and affiliates. Fuel supply contracts with Sunoco LP’s customers generally provide that Sunoco LP distribute motor fuel at a formula price based on published rates, volume-based profit margin and other terms specific to the agreement. The customer is invoiced the agreed-upon price with most payment terms ranging less than 30 days. If the consideration promised in a contract includes a variable amount, Sunoco LP estimates the variable consideration amount and factors in such an estimate to determine the transaction price under the expected value method. Revenue is recognized under the motor fuel contracts at the point in time the customer takes control of the fuel. At the time control is transferred to the customer the sale is considered final, because the agreements do not grant customers the right to return motor fuel. To determine when control transfers to the customer, the shipping terms of the contract are assessed as a primary indicator of the transfer of control. For FOB shipping point terms, revenue is recognized at the time of shipment. The performance obligation with respect to the sale of goods is satisfied at the time of shipment since the customer gains control at this time under the terms. Shipping and/or handling costs that occur before the customer obtains control of the goods are deemed to be fulfillment activities and are accounted for as fulfillment costs. Once the goods are shipped, Sunoco LP is precluded from redirecting the shipment to another customer and revenue is recognized. Commission agent revenue consists of sales from commission agent agreements between Sunoco LP and select operators. Sunoco LP supplies motor fuel to sites operated by commission agents and sells the fuel directly to the end customer. In commission agent arrangements, control of the product is transferred at the point in time when the goods are sold to the end customer. To reflect the transfer of control, Sunoco LP recognizes commission agent revenue at the point in time fuel is sold to the end customer. Sunoco LP receives rental income from leased or subleased properties. Revenue from leasing arrangements for which Sunoco LP is the lessor is recognized ratably over the term of the underlying lease. Sunoco LP’s all other revenue Sunoco LP’s all other operations earn revenue from the following channels: motor fuel sales, rental income and other income. Motor fuel sales consist of fuel sales to consumers at company-operated retail stores. Other income includes merchandise revenue that comprises the in-store merchandise and food service sales at company-operated retail stores, and other revenue that represents a variety of other services within Sunoco LP’s all other operations including credit card processing, car washes, lottery, automated teller machines, money orders, prepaid phone cards and wireless services. Revenue from all other operations is recognized when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied (i.e. when the customer obtains control of the good or the service is provided). USAC’s contract operations revenue USAC’s revenue from contracted compression, natural gas treating and maintenance services is recognized ratably under its fixed-fee contracts over the term of the contract as services are provided to its customers. Initial contract terms typically range from six months to five years; however, USAC usually continues to provide compression services at a specific location beyond the initial contract term, either through contract renewal or on a month-to-month or longer basis. USAC primarily enters into fixed-fee contracts whereby its customers are required to pay the monthly fee even during periods of limited or disrupted throughput. Services are generally billed monthly, one month in advance of the commencement of the service month, except for certain customers who are billed at the beginning of the service month, and payment is generally due 30 days after receipt of the invoice. Amounts invoiced in advance are recorded as deferred revenue until earned, at which time they are recognized as revenue. The amount of consideration USAC receives and revenue it recognizes is based upon the fixed fee rate stated in each service contract. Variable consideration exists in select contracts when billing rates vary based on actual equipment availability or volume of total installed horsepower. USAC’s contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, USAC allocates revenues to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone service fee. USAC generally determines standalone service fees based on the service fees charged to customers or using expected cost plus margin. The majority of USAC’s service performance obligations are satisfied over time as services are rendered at selected customer locations on a monthly basis and based upon specific performance criteria identified in the applicable contract. The monthly service for each location is substantially the same service month to month and is promised consecutively over the service contract term. USAC measures progress and performance of the service consistently using a straight-line, time-based method as each month passes, because its performance obligations are satisfied evenly over the contract term as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by its service. If variable consideration exists, it is allocated to the distinct monthly service within the series to which such variable consideration relates. USAC has elected to apply the invoicing practical expedient to recognize revenue for such variable consideration, as the invoice corresponds directly to the value transferred to the customer based on its performance completed to date. There are typically no material obligations for returns or refunds. USAC’s standard contracts do not usually include material non-cash consideration. USAC’s retail parts and services revenue USAC’s retail parts and services revenue is primarily earned on directly reimbursable freight and crane charges that are the financial responsibility of USAC’s customers and maintenance work on units at its customers’ locations that are outside the scope of its core maintenance activities. Revenue from retail parts and services is recognized at the point in time the part is transferred or service is provided and control is transferred to the customer. At such time, the customer has the ability to direct the use of the benefits of such part or service after USAC has performed its services. USAC bills upon completion of the service or transfer of the parts, and payment is generally due 30 days after receipt of the invoice. The amount of consideration USAC receives and revenue it recognizes is based on the invoice amount. There are typically no material obligations for returns, refunds, or warranties. USAC’s standard contracts do not usually include material variable or non-cash consideration. All other revenue Our all other segment primarily includes our compression equipment business which provides full-service compression design and manufacturing services for the oil and gas industry. It also includes the management of coal and natural resources properties and the related collection of royalties. We also earn revenues from other land management activities, such as selling standing timber, leasing coal-related infrastructure facilities and collecting oil and gas royalties. These operations also include end-user coal handling facilities. Contract Balances with Customers The Partnership satisfies its obligations by transferring goods or services in exchange for consideration from customers. The timing of performance may differ from the timing the associated consideration is paid to or received from the customer, thus resulting in the recognition of a contract asset or a contract liability. The Partnership recognizes a contract asset when making upfront consideration payments to certain customers or when providing services to customers prior to the time at which the Partnership is contractually allowed to bill for such services. The Partnership recognizes a contract liability if the customer’s payment of consideration precedes the Partnership’s fulfillment of the performance obligations. Certain contracts contain provisions requiring customers to pay a fixed minimum fee, but allows customers to apply such fees against services to be provided at a future point in time. These amounts are reflected as deferred revenue until the customer applies the deficiency fees to services provided or becomes unable to use the fees as payment for future services due to expiration of the contractual period the fees can be applied or physical inability of the customer to utilize the fees due to capacity constraints. Additionally, Sunoco LP maintains some franchise agreements requiring dealers to make one-time upfront payments for long-term license agreements. Sunoco LP recognizes a contract liability when the upfront payment is received and recognizes revenue over the term of the license. The following table summarizes the consolidated activity of our contract liabilities: Contract Liabilities Balance, December 31, 2021 $ 459 Additions 1,113 Revenue recognized (944) Other (13) Balance, December 31, 2022 615 Additions 1,254 Revenue recognized (1,120) Balance, December 31, 2023 $ 749 The balances of Sunoco LP’s contract assets and contract liabilities as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows: December 31, 2023 2022 Contract Balances Contract assets $ 256 $ 200 Accounts receivable from contracts with customers 809 834 Contract liabilities — — Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract Sunoco LP recognizes an asset from the costs incurred to obtain a contract (e.g. sales commissions) only if it expects to recover those costs. On the other hand, the costs to fulfill a contract are capitalized if the costs are specifically identifiable to a contract, would result in enhancing resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future and are expected to be recovered. These capitalized costs are recorded as a part of other current assets and other non-current assets and are amortized on a systematic basis consistent with the pattern of transfer of the goods or services to which such costs relate. The amount of amortization expense that Sunoco LP recognized for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $29 million, $22 million and $21 million, respectively. Sunoco LP has also made a policy election of expensing the costs to obtain a contract, as and when they are incurred, in cases where the expected amortization period is one year or less. Performance Obligations At contract inception, the Partnership assesses the goods and services promised in its contracts with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct. To identify the performance obligations, the Partnership considers all the goods or services promised in the contract, whether explicitly stated or implied based on customary business practices. For a contract that has more than one performance obligation, the Partnership allocates the total contract consideration it expects to be entitled to, to each distinct performance obligation based on a standalone-selling price basis. Revenue is recognized when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied, that is, when the customer obtains control of the good or service. Certain of our contracts contain variable components, which, when combined with the fixed component are considered a single performance obligation. For these types of contracts, only the fixed component of the contracts are included in the following table. Sunoco LP distributes fuel under long-term contracts to branded distributors, branded and unbranded third-party dealers, and branded and unbranded retail fuel outlets. Sunoco LP branded supply contracts with distributors generally have both time and volume commitments that establish contract duration. These contracts have an initial term of approximately ten years, with an estimated volume-weighted term remaining of approximately five years. Sunoco LP is party to a 15-year take-or-pay fuel supply agreement in which the distributor is required to purchase a volume of fuel that provides Sunoco LP a minimum amount of gross profit annually. Sunoco LP expects to recognize this revenue in accordance with the contract as Sunoco LP transfers control of the product to the customer. However, in case of annual shortfall, Sunoco LP will recognize the amount payable by the distributor at the sooner of the time at which the distributor makes up the shortfall or becomes contractually or operationally unable to do so. The transaction price of the contract is variable in nature, fluctuating based on market conditions. The Partnership has elected to take the practical expedient not to estimate the amount of variable consideration allocated to wholly unsatisfied performance obligations. In some contractual arrangements, Sunoco LP grants dealers a franchise license to operate Sunoco LP’s retail stores over the life of a franchise agreement. In return for the grant of the retail store license, the dealer makes a one-time nonrefundable franchise fee payment to Sunoco LP plus sales based royalties payable to Sunoco LP at a contractual rate during the period of the franchise agreement. Under the requirements of ASC Topic 606, the franchise license is deemed to be a symbolic license for which recognition of revenue over time is the most appropriate measure of progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. Revenue from this symbolic license is recognized evenly over the life of the franchise agreement. As of December 31, 2023, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied (or partially satisfied) performance obligations was $39.10 billion, and the Partnership expects to recognize this amount as revenue within the time bands illustrated below: Years Ending December 31, 2024 2025 2026 Thereafter Total Revenue expected to be recognized on contracts with customers existing as of December 31, 2023 $ 7,590 $ 6,497 $ 5,769 $ 19,240 $ 39,096 Practical Expedients Utilized by the Partnership The Partnership elected the following practical expedients in accordance with Topic 606: • Right to invoice: The Partnership elected to utilize an output method to recognize revenue that is based on the amount to which the Partnership has a right to invoice a customer for services performed to date, if that amount corresponds directly with the value provided to the customer for the related performance or its obligation completed to date. As such, the Partnership recognized revenue in the amount to which it had the right to invoice customers. • Significant financing component: The Partnership elected not to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of significant financing component if the Partnership expects, at contract inception, that the period between the transfer of a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less. • Unearned variable consideration: The Partnership elected to only disclose the unearned fixed consideration associated with unsatisfied performance obligations related to our various customer contracts which contain both fixed and variable components. • Incremental costs of obtaining a contract: The Partnership generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been less than one year. We record these costs within general and administrative expenses. The Partnership elected to expense the incremental costs of obtaining a contract when the amortization period for such contracts would have been one year or less. • Shipping and handling costs: The Partnership elec |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Lessee, Operating Leases [Text Block] | LEASE ACCOUNTING: Lessee Accounting The Partnership leases terminal facilities, tank cars, office space, land and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases whose initial terms are typically five At present, the majority of the Partnership’s active leases are classified as operating in accordance with Topic 842. Balances related to operating leases are included in operating lease ROU assets, accrued and other current liabilities, operating lease current liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases represent a small portion of the active lease agreements and are included in finance lease ROU assets, current maturities of long-term debt and long-term debt, less current maturities in our consolidated balance sheets. The ROU assets represent the Partnership’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation of the Partnership to make minimum lease payments arising from the lease for the duration of the lease term. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one are evaluated on a lease-by-lease basis. Leases containing early termination clauses typically require the agreement of both parties to the lease. At the inception of a lease, all renewal options reasonably certain to be exercised are considered when determining the lease term. Presently, the Partnership does not have leases that include options to purchase or automatic transfer of ownership of the leased property to the Partnership. The depreciable life of lease assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. To determine the present value of future minimum lease payments, we use the implicit rate when readily determinable. Presently, because many of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Partnership applies its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of minimum lease payments. The operating and finance lease ROU assets include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Minimum rent payments are expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. In addition, some leases require additional contingent or variable lease payments, which are based on the factors specific to the individual agreement. Variable lease payments the Partnership is typically responsible for include payment of real estate taxes, maintenance expenses and insurance. For short-term leases (leases that have term of twelve months or less upon commencement), lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis and no ROU assets are recorded. The components of operating and finance lease amounts recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows: December 31, 2023 2022 Operating leases: Lease right-of-use assets, net $ 797 $ 808 Operating lease current liabilities 56 45 Accrued and other current liabilities 5 1 Non-current operating lease liabilities 778 798 Finance leases: Property, plant and equipment, net $ 1 $ 1 Lease right-of-use assets, net 29 11 Current maturities of long-term debt 8 2 Long-term debt, less current maturities 19 9 Other non-current liabilities — 1 The components of lease expense for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows: Year Ended December 31, Income Statement Location 2023 2022 Operating lease costs: Operating lease cost Cost of goods sold $ 1 $ 3 Operating lease cost Operating expenses 69 63 Operating lease cost Selling, general and administrative 18 22 Total operating lease costs 88 88 Finance lease costs: Amortization of lease assets Depreciation, depletion and amortization — — Interest on lease liabilities Interest expense, net of capitalized interest — — Total finance lease costs — — Short-term lease cost Operating expenses 38 33 Variable lease cost Operating expenses 16 13 Lease costs, gross 142 134 Less: Sublease income Other revenue 42 40 Lease costs, net $ 100 $ 94 The weighted-average remaining lease terms and weighted-average discount rates as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows: December 31, 2023 2022 Weighted-average remaining lease term (years): Operating leases 21 21 Finance leases 12 27 Weighted-average discount rate (%): Operating leases 6 % 5 % Finance leases 5 % 4 % Cash flows and non-cash activity related to leases for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2023 2022 Operating cash flows from operating leases $ (139) $ (133) Lease assets obtained in exchange for new finance lease liabilities 18 1 Lease assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities 5 41 Maturities of lease liabilities as of December 31, 2023 are as follows: Operating leases Finance leases Total 2024 $ 96 $ 7 $ 103 2025 90 8 98 2026 81 4 85 2027 71 2 73 2028 70 1 71 Thereafter 979 12 991 Total lease payments 1,387 34 1,421 Less: present value discount 553 7 560 Present value of lease liabilities $ 834 $ 27 $ 861 Lessor Accounting Sunoco LP leases or subleases a portion of its real estate portfolio to third-party companies as a stable source of long-term revenue. Sunoco LP’s lessor and sublease portfolio consists mainly of operating leases with convenience store operators. At this time, most lessor agreements contain five-year terms with renewal options to extend and early termination options based on established terms specific to the individual agreement.

General Discussion of Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities [Abstract] | |
Derivative Assets And Liabilities | DERIVATIVE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES: Commodity Price Risk We are exposed to market risks related to the volatility of commodity prices. To manage the impact of volatility from these prices, we utilize various exchange-traded and OTC commodity financial instrument contracts. These contracts consist primarily of futures, swaps and options and are recorded at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. We use futures and basis swaps, designated as fair value hedges, to hedge our natural gas inventory stored in our Bammel storage facility. At hedge inception, we lock in a margin by purchasing gas in the spot market or off-peak season and entering into a financial contract. Changes in the spreads between the forward natural gas prices and the physical inventory spot price result in unrealized gains or losses until the underlying physical gas is withdrawn and the related designated derivatives are settled. Once the gas is withdrawn and the designated derivatives are settled, the previously unrealized gains or losses associated with these positions are realized. We use futures, swaps and options to hedge the sales price of natural gas we retain for fees in our intrastate transportation and storage segment and operational gas sales on our interstate transportation and storage segment. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. We use NGL and crude derivative swap contracts to hedge forecasted sales of NGL and condensate equity volumes we retain for fees in our midstream segment whereby our subsidiaries generally gather and process natural gas on behalf of producers, sell the resulting residue gas and NGL volumes at market prices and remit to producers an agreed upon percentage of the proceeds based on an index price for the residue gas and NGL. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. We utilize swaps, futures and other derivative instruments to mitigate the risk associated with market movements in the price of natural gas, refined products and NGLs to manage our storage facilities and the purchase and sale of purity NGL. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. We use futures and swaps to achieve ratable pricing of crude oil purchases, to convert certain expected refined product sales to fixed or floating prices, to lock in margins for certain refined products and to lock in the price of a portion of natural gas purchases or sales. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. We use financial commodity derivatives to take advantage of market opportunities in our trading activities which complement our intrastate transportation and storage segment’s operations and are netted in cost of products sold in our consolidated statements of operations. We also have trading and marketing activities related to power and natural gas in our all other segment which are also netted in cost of products sold. As a result of our trading activities and the use of derivative financial instruments in our intrastate transportation and storage segment, the degree of earnings volatility that can occur may be significant, favorably or unfavorably, from period to period. We attempt to manage this volatility through the use of daily position and profit and loss reports provided to our risk oversight committee, which includes members of senior management, and the limits and authorizations set forth in our commodity risk management policy. The following table details our outstanding commodity-related derivatives: December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 Notional Maturity Notional Maturity Mark-to-Market Derivatives (Trading) Natural Gas (BBtu): Fixed Swaps/Futures (1,878) 2024-2025 145 2023 Basis Swaps IFERC/NYMEX (1) (171,185) 2024 (39,563) 2023 Swing Swaps (900) 2024 — — Options – Puts 1,900 2024 — — Options - Calls 250 2024 — — Power (Megawatt): Forwards 155,600 2024-2029 — 2023-2029 Futures (464,897) 2024 (21,384) 2023 Options – Puts 136,000 2024 119,200 2023 Crude (MBbls): Option - Puts (15) 2024 — — Option - Calls (20) 2024 — — NGL/Refined Products (MBbls): Option - Puts 121 2024-2026 — — Option - Calls (43) 2024-2026 — — (Non-Trading) Natural Gas (BBtu): Basis Swaps IFERC/NYMEX 124,210 2024-2025 42,440 2023-2024 Swing Swaps IFERC (96,828) 2024-2025 (202,815) 2023-2024 Fixed Swaps/Futures 7,125 2024-2026 (15,758) 2023-2025 Forward Physical Contracts (1,751) 2024-2026 2,423 2023-2024 NGL (MBbls) – Forwards/Swaps (13,870) 2024-2027 6,934 2023-2025 Crude (MBbls) – Forwards/Swaps (2,674) 2024-2025 795 2023-2024 Refined Products (MBbls) – Futures (4,548) 2024-2025 (3,547) 2023-2024 Fair Value Hedging Derivatives (Non-Trading) Natural Gas (BBtu): Basis Swaps IFERC/NYMEX (39,013) 2024 (37,448) 2023 Fixed Swaps/Futures (39,013) 2024 (37,448) 2023 Hedged Item – Inventory 39,013 2024 37,448 2023 (1) Includes aggregate amounts for open positions related to Houston Ship Channel, Waha Hub, NGPL TexOk, West Louisiana Zone and Henry Hub locations. Interest Rate Risk We are exposed to market risk for changes in interest rates. To maintain a cost effective capital structure, we borrow funds using a mix of fixed rate debt and variable rate debt. We also manage our interest rate exposure by utilizing interest rate swaps to achieve a desired mix of fixed and variable rate debt. We also utilize forward starting interest rate swaps to lock in the rate on a portion of our anticipated debt issuances. The following table summarizes our interest rate swaps outstanding (including USAC’s), none of which were designated as hedges for accounting purposes: Term Type Notional Amount Outstanding December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 Energy Transfer July 2024 (1) Forward-starting to pay a fixed rate of 3.388% and receive a floating rate based on SOFR $ — $ 400 USAC December 2025 Pay a fixed rate of 3.9725% and receive a floating rate based on SOFR 700 — (1) The July 2024 interest rate swaps were terminated and settled in August 2023. Credit Risk and Customers Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty may default on its contractual obligations resulting in a loss to the Partnership. Credit policies have been approved and implemented to govern the Partnership’s portfolio of counterparties with the objective of mitigating credit losses. These policies establish guidelines, controls and limits to manage credit risk within approved tolerances by mandating an appropriate evaluation of the financial condition of existing and potential counterparties, monitoring agency credit ratings and by implementing credit practices that limit exposure according to the risk profiles of the counterparties. Furthermore, the Partnership may, at times, require collateral under certain circumstances to mitigate credit risk as necessary. The Partnership also uses industry standard commercial agreements which allow for the netting of exposures associated with transactions executed under a single commercial agreement. Additionally, we utilize master netting agreements to offset credit exposure across multiple commercial agreements with a single counterparty or affiliated group of counterparties. Our natural gas transportation and midstream revenues are derived significantly from companies that engage in exploration and production activities. In addition to oil and gas producers, the Partnership’s counterparties consist of a diverse portfolio of customers across the energy industry, including petrochemical companies, commercial and industrial end-users, municipalities, gas and electric utilities, midstream companies and independent power generators. Our overall exposure may be affected positively or negatively by macroeconomic or regulatory changes that impact our counterparties to one extent or another. Currently, management does not anticipate a material adverse effect in our financial position or results of operations as a consequence of counterparty non-performance. The Partnership has maintenance margin deposits with certain counterparties in the OTC market, primarily with independent system operators and with clearing brokers. Payments on margin deposits are required when the value of a derivative exceeds our pre-established credit limit with the counterparty. Margin deposits are returned to us on or about the settlement date for non-exchange traded derivatives, and we exchange margin calls on a daily basis for exchange traded transactions. Since the margin calls are made daily with the exchange brokers, the fair value of the financial derivative instruments are deemed current and netted in deposits paid to vendors within other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. For financial instruments, failure of a counterparty to perform on a contract could result in our inability to realize amounts that have been recorded on our consolidated balance sheets and recognized in net income or other comprehensive income.

Current market factors such as inflation and interest rates are evaluated before long-term market assumptions are determined. Peer data and historical returns are reviewed to ensure reasonableness and appropriateness. The assumed health care cost trend weighted-average rates used to measure the expected cost of benefits covered by the plans are shown in the following table: December 31, 2023 2022 Health care cost trend rate 7.42 % 7.48 % Rate to which the cost trend is assumed to decline (the ultimate trend rate) 5.17 % 5.18 % Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate 2031 2030 Changes in the health care cost trend rate assumptions are not expected to have a significant impact on postretirement benefits.

The Level 1 plan assets are valued based on active market quotes. The Level 2 plan assets are valued based on the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) of the investments, which was not determinable through publicly published sources but was calculated consistent with authoritative accounting guidelines. Contributions We expect to contribute $3 million to pension plans and $1 million to other postretirement plans in 2024. The cost of the plans are funded in accordance with federal regulations, not to exceed the amounts deductible for income tax purposes. Benefit Payments The Partnership’s estimate of expected benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, in each of the next five years and in the aggregate for the five years thereafter are shown in the following table: Pension Benefits - Funded Plans Pension Benefits - Unfunded Plans Other Postretirement Benefits (Gross, Before Medicare Part D) 2024 $ 1 $ 3 $ 14 2025 1 3 14 2026 1 2 13 2027 1 2 12 2028 1 2 32 2029 – 2033 7 5 23 The Medicare Prescription Drug Act provides for a prescription drug benefit under Medicare (“Medicare Part D”) as well as a federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide a prescription drug benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. The Partnership does not expect to receive any Medicare Part D subsidies in any future periods. |

Reportable Segments [Abstract] | |
Reportable Segments | REPORTABLE SEGMENTS: Our reportable segments currently reflect the following segments, which conduct their business primarily in the United States: • intrastate transportation and storage; • interstate transportation and storage; • midstream; • NGL and refined products transportation and services; • crude oil transportation and services; • investment in Sunoco LP; • investment in USAC; and • all other. Consolidated revenues and expenses reflect the elimination of all material intercompany transactions. Revenues from our intrastate transportation and storage segment are primarily reflected in natural gas sales and gathering, transportation and other fees. Revenues from our interstate transportation and storage segment are primarily reflected in gathering, transportation and other fees. Revenues from our midstream segment are primarily reflected in natural gas sales, NGL sales and gathering, transportation and other fees. Revenues from our NGL and refined products transportation and services segment are primarily reflected in NGL sales and gathering, transportation and other fees. Revenues from our crude oil transportation and services segment are reflected in crude sales and gathering, transportation and other fees. Revenues from our investment in Sunoco LP segment are primarily reflected in refined product sales. Revenues from our investment in USAC segment are primarily reflected in gathering, transportation and other fees. Revenues from our all other segment are primarily reflected in natural gas sales. We report Segment Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of segment performance. We define Segment Adjusted EBITDA as total Partnership earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items, such as non-cash compensation expense, gains and losses on disposals of assets, the allowance for equity funds used during construction, unrealized gains and losses on commodity risk management activities, inventory valuation adjustments, non-cash impairment charges, losses on extinguishments of debt and other non-operating income or expense items, as well as certain non-recurring gains and losses. Inventory adjustments that are excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA represent only the changes in lower of cost or market reserves on inventory that is carried at LIFO. These amounts are unrealized valuation adjustments applied to Sunoco LP’s fuel volumes remaining in inventory at the end of the period. Segment Adjusted EBITDA reflect amounts for unconsolidated affiliates based on the same recognition and measurement methods used to record equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates excludes the same items with respect to the unconsolidated affiliate as those excluded from the calculation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA and consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, such as interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other non-cash items. Although these amounts are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA related to unconsolidated affiliates, such exclusion should not be understood to imply that we have control over the operations and resulting revenues and expenses of such affiliates. We do not control our unconsolidated affiliates; therefore, we do not control the earnings or cash flows of such affiliates.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | The consolidated financial statements of Energy Transfer LP presented herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. We consolidate all majority-owned subsidiaries and limited partnerships, which we control as the general partner or owner of the general partner. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the accrual for and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The natural gas industry conducts its business by processing actual transactions at the end of the month following the month of delivery. Consequently, the most current month’s financial results for the midstream, NGL and intrastate transportation and storage operations are estimated using volume estimates and market prices. Any differences between estimated results and actual results are recognized in the following month’s financial statements. Management believes that the estimated operating results represent the actual results in all material respects. |
Regulatory Accounting - Regulatory Assets and Liabilities | Regulatory Accounting – Regulatory Assets and Liabilities Our interstate transportation and storage segment is subject to regulation by certain state and federal authorities, and certain subsidiaries in that segment have accounting policies that conform to the accounting requirements and ratemaking practices of the regulatory authorities, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 980. The application of these accounting policies allows certain of our regulated entities to defer expenses and revenues on the balance sheet as regulatory assets and liabilities when it is probable that those expenses and revenues will be allowed in the ratemaking process in a period different from the period in which they would have been reflected in the consolidated statement of operations by an unregulated company. These deferred assets and liabilities will be reported in results of operations in the period in which the same amounts are included in rates and recovered from or refunded to customers. Management’s assessment of the probability of recovery or pass through of regulatory assets and liabilities will require judgment and interpretation of laws and regulatory commission orders. If, for any reason, we cease to meet the criteria for application of regulatory accounting treatment under ASC Topic 980 for these entities, the regulatory assets and liabilities related to those portions ceasing to meet such criteria would be eliminated from the consolidated balance sheet for the period in which the discontinuance of regulatory accounting treatment occurs. Although Panhandle’s natural gas transmission systems and storage operations are subject to the jurisdiction of the FERC in accordance with the NGA and NGPA, Panhandle does not currently apply ASC Topic 980 in its GAAP-basis consolidated financial statements, primarily due to the level of discounting from tariff rates and its inability to recover specific costs. |
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Supplemental Cash Flow Information | Cash, Cash Equivalents and Supplemental Cash Flow Information Cash and cash equivalents include all cash on hand, demand deposits and investments with original maturities of three months or less. We consider cash equivalents to include short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. We place our cash deposits and temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions. At times, our cash and cash equivalents may be uninsured or in deposit accounts that exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable, net Our operations deal with a variety of counterparties across the energy sector. Internal credit ratings and credit limits are assigned to all counterparties and limits are monitored against credit exposure. Letters of credit or prepayments may be required from those counterparties that are not investment grade depending on the internal credit rating and level of commercial activity with the counterparty. |
Inventories | Inventories Inventories consist principally of natural gas held in storage, NGLs and refined products, crude oil and spare parts, all of which are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value utilizing the weighted-average cost method. Sunoco LP’s fuel inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the last-in-first-out (“LIFO”) method. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, Sunoco LP’s fuel inventory balance included lower of cost or market reserves of $230 million and $116 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Partnership’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income did not include any material amounts of income from the liquidation of Sunoco LP’s LIFO fuel inventory. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Partnership’s cost of products sold included an unfavorable inventory adjustment of $114 million, a favorable inventory adjustment of $5 million and a favorable inventory adjustment of $190 million, respectively, related to Sunoco LP’s LIFO inventory. The Partnership’s inventories consisted of the following: December 31, 2023 2022 Natural gas, NGLs and refined products $ 1,658 $ 1,802 Crude oil 258 246 Spare parts and other 562 413 Total inventories $ 2,478 $ 2,461 |
Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, Plant and Equipment, net Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful or FERC-mandated lives of the assets, if applicable. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs that do not add capacity or extend the useful life are expensed as incurred. Expenditures to refurbish assets that either extend the useful lives of the asset or prevent environmental contamination are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset. Additionally, we capitalize certain costs directly related to the construction of assets including internal labor costs, interest and engineering costs. Upon disposition or retirement of pipeline components or natural gas plant components, any gain or loss is recorded to accumulated depreciation. When entire pipeline systems, gas plants or other property and equipment is retired or sold, any gain or loss is included in our consolidated statements of operations. Property, plant and equipment is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If such a review should indicate that the carrying amount of long-lived assets is not recoverable, we reduce the carrying amount of such assets to fair value. For the years ended December 31 2023, 2022 and 2021, USAC recognized fixed asset impairments of $12 million, $1 million and $5 million, respectively, related to its compression equipment as a result of its evaluation of the future deployment of idle fleet. Capitalized interest is included for pipeline construction projects, except for certain interstate projects for which an allowance for funds used during construction (“AFUDC”) is accrued. Interest is capitalized based on the current borrowing rate of our revolving credit facilities when the related costs are incurred. AFUDC is calculated under guidelines prescribed by the FERC and capitalized as part of the cost of utility plant for interstate projects. It represents the cost of servicing the capital invested in construction work-in-process. AFUDC is segregated into two component parts – borrowed funds and equity funds. |
Other Non-Current Assets, net | Other non-current assets, net are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. |
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets, net Intangible assets are stated at cost, net of amortization computed on the straight-line method. The Partnership removes the gross carrying amount and the related accumulated amortization for any fully amortized intangibles in the year they are fully amortized. Components and useful lives of intangible assets were as follows: December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 Gross Carrying Accumulated Gross Carrying Accumulated Amortizable intangible assets: Customer relationships, contracts and agreements (3 to 46 years) $ 9,098 $ (3,196) $ 7,884 $ (2,807) Patents (10 years) 48 (48) 48 (48) Trade names (20 years) 66 (44) 66 (41) Other (5 to 20 years) 12 (11) 12 (13) Total amortizable intangible assets 9,224 (3,299) 8,010 (2,909) Non-amortizable intangible assets: Trademarks 302 — 302 — Other 12 — 12 — Total non-amortizable intangible assets 314 — 314 — Total intangible assets $ 9,538 $ (3,299) $ 8,324 $ (2,909) Aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets was as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2023 2022 2021 Reported in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense $ 399 $ 390 $ 352 Estimated aggregate amortization of intangible assets for the next five years is as follows: Years Ending December 31: 2024 $ 434 2025 423 2026 417 2027 400 2028 397 |
Goodwill | Goodwill Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The annual impairment test was performed during the fourth quarter. Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill were as follows: Intrastate Interstate Midstream NGL and Refined Products Transportation and Services Crude Oil Transportation and Services Investment in Sunoco LP Investment in USAC All Other Total Balance, December 31, 2021 $ — $ — $ — $ 693 $ 190 $ 1,568 $ — $ 82 $ 2,533 Acquired — — — — — 33 — — 33 Balance, December 31, 2022 — — — 693 190 1,601 — 82 2,566 Acquired — — 601 191 663 — — — 1,455 Other — — — — — (2) — — (2) Balance, December 31, 2023 $ — $ — $ 601 $ 884 $ 853 $ 1,599 $ — $ 82 $ 4,019 Goodwill is recorded at the acquisition date based on a preliminary purchase price allocation and generally may be adjusted when the purchase price allocation is finalized. During the fourth quarter of 2023, $1.46 billion of goodwill was recorded in conjunction with the acquisition of Crestwood, which is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. In 2022, Sunoco LP recorded $33 million of goodwill in conjunction with its acquisitions. The Partnership determines the fair value of our reporting units using the discounted cash flow method, the guideline company method, or a weighted combination of the discounted cash flow method and the guideline company method. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit requires judgment and the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates, operating margins, weighted average costs of capital and future market conditions, among others. The Partnership believes the estimates and assumptions used in our impairment assessments are reasonable and based on available market information, but variations in any of the assumptions could result in materially different calculations of fair value and determinations of whether or not an impairment is indicated. Under the discounted cash flow method, the Partnership determines fair value based on estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit including estimates for capital expenditures, discounted to present value using the risk-adjusted industry rate, which reflect the overall level of inherent risk of the reporting unit. Cash flow projections are derived from one year budgeted amounts and five year operating forecasts plus an estimate of later period cash flows, all of which are evaluated by management. Subsequent period cash flows are developed for each reporting unit using growth rates that management believes are reasonably likely to occur. Under the guideline company method, the Partnership determines the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units by applying valuation multiples of comparable publicly-traded companies to each reporting unit’s projected EBITDA and then averaging that estimate with similar historical calculations using a three year average. In addition, the Partnership estimates a reasonable control premium representing the incremental value that accrues to the majority owner from the opportunity to dictate the strategic and operational actions of the business. The fair value estimates used in the long-lived asset and goodwill tests were primarily based on Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Management does not believe that any of the goodwill balances in its reporting units is currently at significant risk of impairment; however, of the $4.02 billion of goodwill on the Partnership’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, approximately $368 million is recorded in reporting units for which the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying value by approximately 20% or less in the most recent quantitative test. |
Asset Retirement Obligation | Asset Retirement Obligations We have determined that we are obligated by contractual or regulatory requirements to remove facilities or perform other remediation upon retirement of certain assets. The fair value of any ARO is determined based on estimates and assumptions related to retirement costs, which the Partnership bases on historical retirement costs, future inflation rates and credit-adjusted risk-free interest rates. These fair value assessments are considered to be Level 3 measurements, as they are based on both observable and unobservable inputs. Changes in the liability are recorded for the passage of time (accretion) or for revisions to cash flows originally estimated to settle the ARO. An ARO is required to be recorded when a legal obligation to retire an asset exists and such obligation can be reasonably estimated. We will record an ARO in the periods in which management can reasonably estimate the settlement dates. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, other non-current liabilities in the Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets included AROs of $410 million and $362 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 aggregate accretion expense related to AROs was $10 million, $4 million and $12 million, respectively. Except for the AROs discussed above, management was not able to reasonably measure the fair value of AROs as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, in most cases because the settlement dates were indeterminable. Although a number of onshore assets in our systems are subject to agreements or regulations that give rise to an ARO upon discontinued use of these assets, AROs were not recorded because these assets have an indeterminate removal or abandonment date given the expected continued use of the assets with proper maintenance or replacement. Our subsidiaries also have legal obligations for several other assets at previously owned refineries, pipelines and terminals, for which it is not possible to estimate when the obligations will be settled. Consequently, the retirement obligations for these assets cannot be measured at this time. At the end of the useful life of these underlying assets, our subsidiaries are legally or contractually required to abandon in place or remove the asset. We believe we may have additional AROs related to pipeline assets and storage tanks, for which it is not possible to estimate whether or when the AROs will be settled. Consequently, these AROs cannot be measured at this time. Sunoco LP also has AROs related to the estimated future cost to remove underground storage tanks. Individual component assets have been and will continue to be replaced, but the pipeline and the natural gas gathering and processing systems will continue in operation as long as supply and demand for natural gas exists. Based on the widespread use of natural gas in industrial and power generation activities, management expects supply and demand to exist for the |

Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value. We have commodity derivatives and interest rate derivatives that are accounted for as assets and liabilities at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. We determine the fair value of our assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement by using the highest possible “level” of inputs. Level 1 inputs are observable quotes in an active market for identical assets and liabilities. We consider the valuation of marketable securities and commodity derivatives transacted through a clearing broker with a published price from the appropriate exchange as a Level 1 valuation. Level 2 inputs are inputs observable for similar assets and liabilities. We consider OTC commodity derivatives entered into directly with third parties as a Level 2 valuation since the values of these derivatives are quoted on an exchange for similar transactions. Additionally, we consider our options transacted through our clearing broker as having Level 2 inputs due to the level of activity of these contracts on the exchange in which they trade. We consider the valuation of our interest rate derivatives as Level 2 as the primary input, the LIBOR or SOFR curve, is based on quotes from an active exchange of futures for the same period as the future interest swap settlements. Level 3 inputs are unobservable. During the year ended December 31, 2023, no transfers were made between any levels within the fair value hierarchy. |
Contributions In Aid Of Construction Costs Policy Text Block | Contributions in Aid of Construction Costs On certain of our capital projects, third parties are obligated to reimburse us for all or a portion of project expenditures. The majority of such arrangements are associated with pipeline construction and production well tie-ins. Contributions in aid of construction costs (“CIAC”) are netted against our project costs as they are received. |
Costs and Expenses | Costs and Expenses Cost of products sold include actual cost of fuel sold, adjusted for the effects of our hedging and other commodity derivative activities, and the cost of appliances, parts and fittings. Operating expenses include all costs incurred to provide products to customers, including compensation for operations personnel, insurance costs, vehicle maintenance, advertising costs, purchasing costs and plant operations. Selling, general and administrative expenses include all partnership related expenses and compensation for executive, partnership and administrative personnel. We record the collection of taxes to be remitted to government authorities on a net basis, except for consumer excise taxes collected by Sunoco LP on sales of refined products and merchandise which are included in both revenues and costs and expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, with no effect on net income. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, excise taxes collected by Sunoco LP were $274 million, $285 million and $332 million, respectively. |
Issuances of Subsidiary Units | Issuances of Subsidiary Units |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Energy Transfer is a publicly traded limited partnership and is not taxable for federal and most state income tax purposes. As a result, our earnings or losses, to the extent not included in a taxable subsidiary, for federal and most state purposes are included in the tax returns of the individual partners. Net earnings for financial statement purposes may differ significantly from taxable income reportable to Unitholders as a result of differences between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities, in addition to the allocation requirements related to taxable income under our Partnership Agreement. We do not have access to information regarding each partner’s individual tax basis in our limited partner interests. As a publicly traded limited partnership, we are subject to a statutory requirement that our “qualifying income” (as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, related Treasury Regulations, and IRS pronouncements) exceed 90% of our total gross income, determined on a calendar year basis. If our qualifying income does not meet this statutory requirement, Energy Transfer would be taxed as a corporation for federal and state income tax purposes. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, our qualifying income met the statutory requirement. The Partnership conducts certain activities through corporate subsidiaries which are subject to federal, state and local, and foreign income taxes. These corporate subsidiaries include ETP Holdco, Sunoco Retail LLC, and Aloha, among others. The Partnership and its corporate subsidiaries account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts more likely than not to be realized. |
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities For qualifying hedges, we formally document, designate and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting treatment and the gains and losses offset related results on the hedged item in the statement of operations. The market prices used to value our financial derivatives and related transactions have been determined using independent third-party prices, readily available market information, broker quotes and appropriate valuation techniques. At inception of a hedge, we formally document the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, the risk management objectives, and the methods used for assessing and testing effectiveness and how any ineffectiveness will be measured and recorded. We also assess, both at the inception of the hedge and on a quarterly basis, whether the derivatives that are used in our hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows. If we determine that a derivative is no longer highly effective as a hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting prospectively by including changes in the fair value of the derivative in net income for the period. If we designate a commodity hedging relationship as a fair value hedge, we record the changes in fair value of the hedged asset or liability in cost of products sold in our consolidated statements of operations. This amount is offset by the changes in fair value of the related hedging instrument. Any ineffective portion or amount excluded from the assessment of hedge ineffectiveness is also included in the cost of products sold in the consolidated statements of operations. Cash flows from derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges are reported as cash flows from operating activities, in the same category as the cash flows from the items being hedged. If we designate a derivative financial instrument as a cash flow hedge and it qualifies for hedge accounting, the change in the fair value is deferred in AOCI until the underlying hedged transaction occurs. Any ineffective portion of a cash flow hedge’s change in fair value is recognized each period in earnings. Gains and losses deferred in AOCI related to cash flow hedges remain in AOCI until the underlying physical transaction occurs, unless it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period or within an additional two-month period of time thereafter. For financial derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting, the change in fair value is recorded in cost of products sold in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Share-based Payment Arrangement [Policy Text Block] | For awards of restricted units, we recognize compensation expense over the vesting period based on the grant-date fair value, which is determined based on the market price of the underlying common units on the grant date. For awards of cash restricted units, we remeasure the fair value of the award at the end of each reporting period based on the market price of the underlying common units as of the reporting date, and the fair value is recorded in other non-current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue Recognition | Disaggregation of revenue The major types of revenue within our reportable segments are as follows: • intrastate transportation and storage; • interstate transportation and storage; • midstream; • NGL and refined products transportation and services; • crude oil transportation and services; • investment in Sunoco LP; • fuel distribution and marketing; • all other; • investment in USAC; • contract operations; • retail parts and services; and • all other. Note 16 depicts the disaggregation of revenue by segment, with revenue amounts reflected in accordance with ASC Topic 606. Intrastate transportation and storage revenue Our intrastate transportation and storage segment’s revenues are determined primarily by the volume of capacity our customers reserve as well as the actual volume of natural gas that flows through the transportation pipelines or that is injected or withdrawn into or out of our storage facilities. Firm transportation and storage contracts require customers to pay certain minimum fixed fees regardless of the volume of commodity they transport or store. These contracts typically include a variable incremental charge based on the actual volume of transportation commodity throughput or stored commodity injected/withdrawn. Under interruptible transportation and storage contracts, customers are not required to pay any fixed minimum amounts, but are instead billed based on actual volume of commodity they transport across our pipelines or inject/withdraw into or out of our storage facilities. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (transportation or storage) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. The performance obligation with respect to interruptible contracts is also a promise to provide a single type of service, but such promise is made on a case-by-case basis at the time the customer requests the service and we accept the customer’s request. Revenue is recognized for interruptible contracts at the time the services are performed. Our intrastate transportation and storage segment also generates revenues and margin from the sale of natural gas to electric utilities, independent power plants, local distribution companies, industrial end-users and other marketing companies on the HPL System. Generally, we purchase natural gas from the market, including purchases from our marketing operations, and from producers at the wellhead. Interstate transportation and storage revenue Our interstate transportation and storage segment’s revenues are determined primarily by the amount of capacity our customers reserve as well as the actual volume of natural gas that flows through the transportation pipelines or that is injected into or withdrawn out of our storage facilities. Our interstate transportation and storage segment’s contracts can be firm or interruptible. Firm transportation and storage contracts require customers to pay certain minimum fixed fees regardless of the volume of commodity transported or stored. In exchange for such fees, we must stand ready to perform a contractually agreed-upon minimum volume of services whenever the customer requests such services. These contracts typically include a variable incremental charge based on the actual volume of transportation commodity throughput or stored commodity injected or withdrawn. Under interruptible transportation and storage contracts, customers are not required to pay any fixed minimum amounts, but are instead billed based on actual volume of commodity they transport across our pipelines or inject into or withdraw out of our storage facilities. Consequently, we are not required to stand ready to provide any contractually agreed-upon volume of service, but instead provides the services based on existing capacity at the time the customer requests the services. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (transportation or storage) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. The performance obligation with respect to interruptible contracts is also a promise to provide a single type of services, but such promise is made on a case-by-case basis at the time the customer requests the service and we accept the customer’s request. Revenue is recognized for interruptible contracts at the time the services are performed. Lake Charles LNG’s revenues are primarily derived from terminalling services for shippers by receiving LNG at the facility for storage and delivering such LNG to shippers, either in liquid state or gaseous state after regasification. Lake Charles LNG derives all of its revenue from a series of long-term contracts with a wholly owned subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc (“Shell”). Terminalling revenue is generated from fees paid by Shell for storage and other associated services at the terminal. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The terminalling agreements are considered to be firm agreements, because they include fixed fee components that are charged regardless of the volumes transported by Shell or services provided at the terminal. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (terminalling) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. Midstream revenue Our midstream segment’s revenues are derived primarily from margins we earn for natural gas volumes that are gathered, processed and/or transported. The various types of revenue contracts our midstream segment enters into include: Fixed fee gathering and processing: Contracts under which we provide gathering and processing services in exchange for a fixed cash fee per unit of volume. Revenue for cash fees is recognized when the service is performed. Keepwhole: Contracts under which we gather raw natural gas from a third-party producer, process the gas to convert it to pipeline quality natural gas, and redeliver to the producer a thermal-equivalent volume of pipeline quality natural gas. In exchange for these services, we retain the NGLs extracted from the raw natural gas received from the producer as well as cash fees paid by the producer. The value of NGLs retained as well as cash fees is recognized as revenue when the services are performed. Percent of Proceeds (“POP”): Contracts under which we provide gathering and processing services in exchange for a specified percentage of the producer’s commodity (“POP percentage”) and also in some cases additional cash fees. The two types of POP revenue contracts are described below: • In-Kind POP: We retain our POP percentage (non-cash consideration) and also any additional cash fees in exchange for providing the services. We recognize revenue for the non-cash consideration and cash fees at the time the services are performed. • Mixed POP: We purchase NGLs from the producer and retain a portion of the residue gas as non-cash consideration for services provided. We may also receive cash fees for such services. Under Topic 606, these agreements were determined to be hybrid agreements which were partially supply agreements (for the NGLs we purchased) and customer agreements (for the services provided related to the product that was returned to the customer). Given that these are hybrid agreements, we split the cash and non-cash consideration between revenue and a reduction of costs based on the value of the service provided vs. the value of the supply received. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The performance obligations with respect to our midstream segment’s contracts are to provide gathering, transportation and processing services, each of which would be completed on or about the same time, and each of which would be recognized on the same line item on the income statement, therefore identification of separate performance obligations would not impact the timing or geography of revenue recognition. Certain contracts of our midstream segment include throughput commitments under which customers commit to purchasing a certain minimum volume of service over a specified time period. If such volume of service is not purchased by the customer, deficiency fees are billed to the customer. In some cases, the customer is allowed to apply any deficiency fees paid to future purchases of services. In such cases, we defer revenue recognition until the customer uses the deficiency fees for services provided or becomes unable to use the fees as payment for future services due to expiration of the contractual period the fees can be applied or physical inability of the customer to utilize the fees due to capacity constraints. Our midstream segment also generates revenues from the sale of residue gas and NGLs at the tailgate of our processing facilities primarily to affiliates and some third-party customers. NGL and refined products transportation and services revenue Our NGL and refined products transportation and services segment’s revenues are primarily derived from transportation, fractionation, blending and storage of NGL and refined products as well as acquisition and marketing activities. Revenues are generated utilizing a complementary network of pipelines, storage and blending facilities, and strategic offtake locations that provide access to multiple NGL markets. Transportation, fractionation and storage revenue is generated from fees charged to customers under a combination of firm and interruptible contracts. Firm contracts are in the form of take-or-pay arrangements where certain fees will be charged to customers regardless of the volume of service they request for any given period. Under interruptible contracts, customers are not required to pay any fixed minimum amounts, but are instead billed based on actual volume of service provided for any given period. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (transportation, fractionation, blending, or storage) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. The performance obligation with respect to interruptible contracts is also a promise to provide a single type of services, but such promise is made on a case-by-case basis at the time the customer requests the service and we accept the customer’s request. Revenue is recognized for interruptible contracts at the time the services are performed. Crude oil transportation and services revenue Our crude oil transportation and services segment’s revenues are primarily derived from providing transportation, terminalling and acquisition and marketing services to crude oil markets throughout the Southwest, Midwest and Northeast United States. Crude oil transportation revenue is generated from tariffs paid by shippers utilizing our transportation services and is generally recognized as the related transportation services are provided. Crude oil terminalling revenue is generated from fees paid by customers for storage and other associated services at the terminal. Crude oil acquisition and marketing revenue is generated from sale of crude oil acquired from a variety of suppliers to third parties. Payment for services under these contracts are typically due the month after the services have been performed. Certain transportation and terminalling agreements are considered to be firm agreements, because they include fixed fee components that are charged regardless of the volume of crude oil transported by the customer or services provided at the terminal. For these agreements, any fixed fees billed in excess of services provided are not recognized as revenue until the earlier of (i) the time at which the customer applies the fees against cost of service provided in a later period, or (ii) the customer becomes unable to apply the fees against cost of future service due to capacity constraints or contractual terms. The performance obligation with respect to firm contracts is a promise to provide a single type of service (transportation or terminalling) daily over the life of the contract, which is fundamentally a “stand-ready” service. While there can be multiple activities required to be performed, these activities are not separable because such activities in combination are required to successfully transfer the overall service for which the customer has contracted. The fixed consideration of the transaction price is allocated ratably over the life of the contract and revenue for the fixed consideration is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of this “stand-ready” service. Incremental fees associated with actual volume for each respective period are recognized as revenue in the period the incremental volume of service is performed. The performance obligation with respect to interruptible contracts is also a promise to provide a single type of service, but such promise is made on a case-by-case basis at the time the customer requests the service and/or product and we accept the customer’s request. Revenue is recognized for interruptible contracts at the time the services are performed. Sunoco LP’s fuel distribution and marketing revenue Sunoco LP’s fuel distribution and marketing operations earn revenue from the following channels: sales to dealers, sales to distributors, unbranded wholesale revenue, commission agent revenue, rental income and other income. Motor fuel revenue consists primarily of the sale of motor fuel under supply agreements with third party customers and affiliates. Fuel supply contracts with Sunoco LP’s customers generally provide that Sunoco LP distribute motor fuel at a formula price based on published rates, volume-based profit margin and other terms specific to the agreement. The customer is invoiced the agreed-upon price with most payment terms ranging less than 30 days. If the consideration promised in a contract includes a variable amount, Sunoco LP estimates the variable consideration amount and factors in such an estimate to determine the transaction price under the expected value method. Revenue is recognized under the motor fuel contracts at the point in time the customer takes control of the fuel. At the time control is transferred to the customer the sale is considered final, because the agreements do not grant customers the right to return motor fuel. To determine when control transfers to the customer, the shipping terms of the contract are assessed as a primary indicator of the transfer of control. For FOB shipping point terms, revenue is recognized at the time of shipment. The performance obligation with respect to the sale of goods is satisfied at the time of shipment since the customer gains control at this time under the terms. Shipping and/or handling costs that occur before the customer obtains control of the goods are deemed to be fulfillment activities and are accounted for as fulfillment costs. Once the goods are shipped, Sunoco LP is precluded from redirecting the shipment to another customer and revenue is recognized. Commission agent revenue consists of sales from commission agent agreements between Sunoco LP and select operators. Sunoco LP supplies motor fuel to sites operated by commission agents and sells the fuel directly to the end customer. In commission agent arrangements, control of the product is transferred at the point in time when the goods are sold to the end customer. To reflect the transfer of control, Sunoco LP recognizes commission agent revenue at the point in time fuel is sold to the end customer. Sunoco LP receives rental income from leased or subleased properties. Revenue from leasing arrangements for which Sunoco LP is the lessor is recognized ratably over the term of the underlying lease. Sunoco LP’s all other revenue Sunoco LP’s all other operations earn revenue from the following channels: motor fuel sales, rental income and other income. Motor fuel sales consist of fuel sales to consumers at company-operated retail stores. Other income includes merchandise revenue that comprises the in-store merchandise and food service sales at company-operated retail stores, and other revenue that represents a variety of other services within Sunoco LP’s all other operations including credit card processing, car washes, lottery, automated teller machines, money orders, prepaid phone cards and wireless services. Revenue from all other operations is recognized when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied (i.e. when the customer obtains control of the good or the service is provided). USAC’s contract operations revenue USAC’s revenue from contracted compression, natural gas treating and maintenance services is recognized ratably under its fixed-fee contracts over the term of the contract as services are provided to its customers. Initial contract terms typically range from six months to five years; however, USAC usually continues to provide compression services at a specific location beyond the initial contract term, either through contract renewal or on a month-to-month or longer basis. USAC primarily enters into fixed-fee contracts whereby its customers are required to pay the monthly fee even during periods of limited or disrupted throughput. Services are generally billed monthly, one month in advance of the commencement of the service month, except for certain customers who are billed at the beginning of the service month, and payment is generally due 30 days after receipt of the invoice. Amounts invoiced in advance are recorded as deferred revenue until earned, at which time they are recognized as revenue. The amount of consideration USAC receives and revenue it recognizes is based upon the fixed fee rate stated in each service contract. Variable consideration exists in select contracts when billing rates vary based on actual equipment availability or volume of total installed horsepower. USAC’s contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, USAC allocates revenues to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone service fee. USAC generally determines standalone service fees based on the service fees charged to customers or using expected cost plus margin. The majority of USAC’s service performance obligations are satisfied over time as services are rendered at selected customer locations on a monthly basis and based upon specific performance criteria identified in the applicable contract. The monthly service for each location is substantially the same service month to month and is promised consecutively over the service contract term. USAC measures progress and performance of the service consistently using a straight-line, time-based method as each month passes, because its performance obligations are satisfied evenly over the contract term as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by its service. If variable consideration exists, it is allocated to the distinct monthly service within the series to which such variable consideration relates. USAC has elected to apply the invoicing practical expedient to recognize revenue for such variable consideration, as the invoice corresponds directly to the value transferred to the customer based on its performance completed to date. There are typically no material obligations for returns or refunds. USAC’s standard contracts do not usually include material non-cash consideration. USAC’s retail parts and services revenue USAC’s retail parts and services revenue is primarily earned on directly reimbursable freight and crane charges that are the financial responsibility of USAC’s customers and maintenance work on units at its customers’ locations that are outside the scope of its core maintenance activities. Revenue from retail parts and services is recognized at the point in time the part is transferred or service is provided and control is transferred to the customer. At such time, the customer has the ability to direct the use of the benefits of such part or service after USAC has performed its services. USAC bills upon completion of the service or transfer of the parts, and payment is generally due 30 days after receipt of the invoice. The amount of consideration USAC receives and revenue it recognizes is based on the invoice amount. There are typically no material obligations for returns, refunds, or warranties. USAC’s standard contracts do not usually include material variable or non-cash consideration. All other revenue |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Lessee, Leases [Policy Text Block] | Lessee Accounting The Partnership leases terminal facilities, tank cars, office space, land and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases whose initial terms are typically five At present, the majority of the Partnership’s active leases are classified as operating in accordance with Topic 842. Balances related to operating leases are included in operating lease ROU assets, accrued and other current liabilities, operating lease current liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases represent a small portion of the active lease agreements and are included in finance lease ROU assets, current maturities of long-term debt and long-term debt, less current maturities in our consolidated balance sheets. The ROU assets represent the Partnership’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation of the Partnership to make minimum lease payments arising from the lease for the duration of the lease term. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one are evaluated on a lease-by-lease basis. Leases containing early termination clauses typically require the agreement of both parties to the lease. At the inception of a lease, all renewal options reasonably certain to be exercised are considered when determining the lease term. Presently, the Partnership does not have leases that include options to purchase or automatic transfer of ownership of the leased property to the Partnership. The depreciable life of lease assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. To determine the present value of future minimum lease payments, we use the implicit rate when readily determinable. Presently, because many of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Partnership applies its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of minimum lease payments. The operating and finance lease ROU assets include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Minimum rent payments are expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. In addition, some leases require additional contingent or variable lease payments, which are based on the factors specific to the individual agreement. Variable lease payments the Partnership is typically responsible for include payment of real estate taxes, maintenance expenses and insurance. For short-term leases (leases that have term of twelve months or less upon commencement), lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis and no ROU assets are recorded. |

[1] The USAC Credit Facility matures in December 2026, except that if any portion of the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2026 are outstanding on December 31, 2025, the USAC Credit Facility will mature on December 31, 2025. In May 2023, the Partnership refinanced all of the $225 million outstanding principal amount of HFOTCO tax-exempt bonds with new 10-year tax-exempt bonds. The new bonds, which were issued through the Harris County Industrial Development Corporation and are obligations of Energy Transfer, accrue interest at a fixed rate of 4.05% and are mandatorily redeemable in 2033.
