Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block]	Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation Description of the Business – MPLX LP is a diversified, large-cap master limited partnership formed by Marathon Petroleum Corporation that owns and operates midstream energy infrastructure and logistics assets, and provides fuels distribution services. References in this report to “MPLX LP,” “MPLX,” “the Partnership,” “we,” “ours,” “us,” or like terms refer to MPLX LP and its subsidiaries. References to “MPC” refer collectively to Marathon Petroleum Corporation as our sponsor and its subsidiaries, other than the Partnership. We are engaged in the transportation, storage and distribution of crude oil and refined petroleum products; the gathering, processing and transportation of natural gas; and the gathering, transportation, fractionation, storage and marketing of NGLs. MPLX’s principal executive office is located in Findlay, Ohio. MPLX’s business consists of two segments based on the nature of services it offers: Logistics and Storage (“L&S”), which relates primarily to crude oil and refined petroleum products; and Gathering and Processing (“G&P”), which relates primarily to natural gas and NGLs. See Note 9 for additional information regarding the operations and results of these segments. On July 30, 2019, MPLX completed its acquisition by merger (the “Merger”) of Andeavor Logistics LP (“ANDX”). At the effective time of the Merger, each common unit held by ANDX’s public unitholders was converted into the right to receive 1.135 MPLX common units. ANDX common units held by certain affiliates of MPC were converted into the right to receive 1.0328 MPLX common units. See Note 3 for additional information regarding the Merger. Basis of Presentation – The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of MPLX’s management, these statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. These interim consolidated financial statements, including the notes, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim period financial statements and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. MPLX’s consolidated financial statements include all majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. For non-wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries, the interests owned by third parties have been recorded as “Noncontrolling interests” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Intercompany investments, accounts and transactions have been eliminated. MPLX’s investments in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for using the equity method. MPLX’s investments in a VIE in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are also accounted for using the equity method. In preparing the Consolidated Statements of Equity, net income attributable to MPLX LP is allocated to Series A preferred unitholders based on a fixed distribution schedule. Distributions, although earned, are not accrued until declared. The allocation of net income attributable to MPLX LP for purposes of calculating net income per limited partner unit is described in Note 6 .

Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards	6 Months Ended

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases We adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), as of January 1, 2019, electing the transition method which permits entities to adopt the provisions of the standard using the modified retrospective approach without adjusting comparative periods. We also elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed us to grandfather the historical accounting conclusions until a reassessment event is present. We have also elected the practical expedient to not recognize short-term leases on the balance sheet, the practical expedient related to right of way permits and land easements which allows us to carry forward our accounting treatment for those existing agreements, and the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for the majority of our underlying classes of assets except for our third-party contractor service and equipment agreements and boat and barge equipment agreements in which we are the lessee. We did not elect the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for arrangements in which we are the lessor. In instances where the practical expedient was not elected, lease and non-lease consideration is allocated based on relative standalone selling price. Right of use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an underlying asset in which we obtain substantially all of the economic benefits and the right to direct the use of the asset during the lease term. Lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. We recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with a lease term of greater than one year. Payments that are not fixed at the commencement of the lease are considered variable and are excluded from the ROU asset and lease liability calculations. In the measurement of our ROU assets and lease liabilities, the fixed lease payments in the agreement are discounted using a secured incremental borrowing rate for a term similar to the duration of the lease, as our leases do not provide implicit rates. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of ROU assets and lease liabilities of approximately $505 million and $502 million , respectively, as of January 1, 2019. The standard did not materially impact our consolidated statements of income, cash flows or equity as a result of adoption. As a lessor under ASC 842, MPLX may be required to re-classify existing operating leases to sales-type leases upon modification and related reassessment of the leases. If such a modification were to occur, it may result in the de-recognition of existing assets and recognition of a receivable in the amount of the present value of fixed payments expected to be received by MPLX under the lease. MPLX will evaluate the impacts of lease reassessments as modifications occur. We also adopted the following standard during the first six months of 2019 , which did not have a material impact to our financial statements or financial statement disclosures: ASU Effective Date 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities January 1, 2019
Description of New Accounting Pronouncements Not yet Adopted [Text Block]	Not Yet Adopted ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment In January 2017, the FASB issued an ASU which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the new guidance, the recognition of an impairment charge is calculated based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, which could be different from the amount calculated under the current method using the implied fair value of the goodwill; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The guidance should be applied on a prospective basis, and is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Acquisitions	Acquisitions Acquisition of Andeavor Logistics LP As previously disclosed, on May 7, 2019, ANDX, Tesoro Logistics GP, LLC, then the general partner of ANDX (“TLGP”), MPLX, MPLX GP LLC, the general partner of MPLX (“MPLX GP”), and MPLX MAX LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) that provided for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into ANDX. On July 30, 2019, the Merger was completed, and ANDX survived the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX. At the effective time of the Merger, each common unit held by ANDX’s public unitholders was converted into the right to receive 1.135 MPLX common units. ANDX common units held by certain affiliates of MPC were converted into the right to receive 1.0328 MPLX common units. The assets of ANDX consist of a network of owned and operated crude oil, refined product and natural gas pipelines; terminals with crude oil and refined products storage capacity; rail loading and offloading facilities; marine terminals including storage; bulk petroleum distribution facilities; a trucking fleet; and natural gas processing and fractionation complexes. The assets are located in the western and inland regions of the United States. MPC accounted for its October 1, 2018 acquisition of Andeavor (including acquiring control of ANDX), using the acquisition method of accounting which required Andeavor assets and liabilities to be recorded by MPC at the acquisition date fair value. As a result of MPC’s relationship with both MPLX and ANDX, the Merger will be treated as a common control transaction, which requires the recognition of assets and liabilities acquired using MPC’s historical basis as of October 1, 2018. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed shown below have been pushed down from MPC and are considered preliminary as MPC has not yet completed a final determination of the respective fair values related to its acquisition of Andeavor. The preliminary purchase consideration allocation may change based on additional information received. Adjustments to this allocation can be made through the end of MPC’s measurement period, which is not to exceed one year from the Andeavor acquisition date. Values shown below have not been incorporated into the results of MPLX as of June 30, 2019 as the Merger was not closed until July 30, 2019.

(4) Includes deferred revenue and deferred income taxes, as well as related party and third party other noncurrent liabilities. Details of our valuation methodology and significant inputs for fair value measurements are included by asset class below. The fair value measurements for equity method investments, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and long-term debt are based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and, therefore, represent Level 3 measurements. Goodwill The preliminary purchase consideration allocation resulted in the recognition of $7 billion in goodwill which will be split between the L&S and G&P segments once assigned to the relevant reporting units. Inventory The fair value of inventory was recorded at cost as of October 1, 2018 as these items are related to spare parts, materials and supplies and approximate fair value. Equity Method Investments The fair value of the equity method investments was determined based on applying income and market approaches. The income approach relied on the discounted cash flow method and the market approach relied on a market multiple approach considering historical and projected financial results. Discount rates for the discounted cash flow models were based on capital structures for similar market participants and included various risk premiums that account for risks associated with the specific investments. Property, Plant and Equipment The preliminary fair value of property, plant and equipment is $7 billion , which is based primarily on the cost approach. Key assumptions in the cost approach include determining the replacement cost by evaluating recent purchases of similar assets or published data, and adjusting replacement cost for economic and functional obsolescence, location, normal useful lives, and capacity (if applicable). Acquired Intangible Assets The preliminary fair value of the acquired identifiable intangible assets is $960 million , which represents the value of various customer contracts and relationships and other intangible assets. The preliminary fair value of customer contracts and relationships is $890 million , which was valued by applying the multi-period excess earnings method, which is an income approach. Key assumptions in the income approach include the underlying contract cash flow estimates, remaining contract term, probability of renewal, growth rates and discount rates. The intangible assets are all finite lived and will be amortized over 2 to 10 years. Debt The fair value of the ANDX unsecured notes was measured using a market approach, based upon the average of quotes for the acquired debt from major financial institutions and a third-party valuation service. Additionally, approximately $1.1 billion of borrowings under revolving credit agreements approximate fair value. Acquisition Costs We recognized $4 million in acquisition costs during the period which are reflected in general and administrative expenses. Pro Forma Financial Information The following unaudited pro forma information combines the historical operations of MPLX and ANDX, giving effect to the merger as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2018, the beginning of the earliest period presented. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended (In millions) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Total revenues and other income $ 2,224 $ 2,122 $ 4,461 $ 4,059 Net income attributable to MPLX LP $ 652 $ 600 $ 1,324 $ 1,161 The pro forma information includes adjustments to align accounting policies which include adjustments for capitalization of assets and treatment of turnaround and major maintenance costs. The pro forma information also includes adjustments related to: reversing transactions between MPLX and ANDX which previously would have been recorded as transactions between related parties; basis differences on equity method investments as a result of recognition of MPC’s investments in ANDX’s equity method investments; depreciation and amortization expense to reflect the increased fair value of property, plant and equipment and increased amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets; as well as adjustments to interest expense for the amortization of fair value adjustments over the remaining term of ANDX’s outstanding debt, reversal of ANDX’s historical amortization of debt issuance costs and debt discounts and to adjust for the difference in the weighted average interest rate between MPLX’s revolving credit facility and the ANDX revolving credit facilities. Mt. Airy Terminal On September 26, 2018, MPLX acquired an eastern U.S. Gulf Coast export terminal (the “Mt. Airy Terminal”) from Pin Oak Holdings, LLC for total consideration of $451 million . At the time of the acquisition, the terminal included tanks with 4 million barrels of third-party leased storage capacity and a dock with 120 mbpd of capacity. The Mt. Airy Terminal is located on the Mississippi River between New Orleans and Baton Rouge, is in close proximity to several Gulf Coast refineries including MPC’s Garyville Refinery and is near numerous rail lines and pipelines. The Mt. Airy Terminal is accounted for within the L&S segment. In the first quarter of 2019, an adjustment to the initial purchase price was made for approximately $5 million related to the final settlement of the acquisition, which was paid in the first six months of 2019 as shown on the statement of cash flow. This reduced the total purchase price to $446 million and resulted in $336 million of property, plant and equipment, $121 million of goodwill and the remainder being attributable to net liabilities assumed. Goodwill represents the significant growth potential of the terminal due to the multiple pipelines and rail lines which cross the property, the terminal’s position as an aggregation point for liquids growth in the region for both ocean-going vessels and inland barges, the proximity of the terminal to MPC’s Garyville refinery and other refineries in the region as well as the opportunity to construct an additional dock at the site. Refining Logistics and Fuels Distribution Acquisition On February 1, 2018 , MPC and MPLX closed on an agreement for the dropdown of refining logistics assets and fuels distribution services to MPLX. MPC contributed these assets and services in exchange for $4.1 billion in cash and a fixed number of MPLX common units and general partner units of 111,611,111 and 2,277,778 , respectively. The fair value of the common and general partner units issued as of the acquisition date was $4.3 billion based on the closing common unit price as of February 1, 2018 , as recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Equity, for a total purchase price of $8.4 billion . The equity issued consisted of: (i) 85,610,278 common units to MPLX GP, (ii) 18,176,666 common units to MPLX Logistics Holdings LLC and (iii) 7,824,167 common units to MPLX Holdings Inc. MPLX also issued 2,277,778 general partner units to MPLX GP in order to maintain its two percent general partner interest (“GP Interest”) in MPLX. MPC agreed to waive approximately one-third of the first quarter 2018 distributions on the common units issued in connection with this transaction. As a result of this waiver, MPC did not receive $23.7 million of the distributions that would have otherwise accrued on such common units with respect to the first quarter of 2018. Immediately following this transaction, the GP Interest was converted into a non-economic general partner interest. MPLX recorded this transaction on a historical basis as required for transactions between entities under common control. No effect was given to the prior periods as these entities were not considered businesses prior to the February 1, 2018 dropdown. In connection with the dropdown, approximately $830 million of net property, plant and equipment was recorded in addition to $85 million and $130 million of goodwill allocated to MPLX Refining Logistics LLC (“Refining Logistics”) and MPLX Fuels Distribution LLC (“Fuels Distribution”), respectively. Both the refining logistics assets and the fuels distribution services are accounted for within the L&S segment. As of the transaction date, the Refining Logistics assets included 619 tanks with approximately 56 million barrels of storage capacity (crude, finished products and intermediates), 32 rail and truck racks, 18 docks, and gasoline blenders. These assets generate revenue through storage services agreements with MPC. Refining Logistics provides certain services to MPC related to the receipt, storage, throughput, custody and delivery of petroleum products in and through certain storage and logistical facilities and assets associated with MPC’s refineries.

This basis difference is being amortized into net income over the remaining estimated useful lives of the underlying assets, except for $459 million and $39 million of excess related to goodwill for the G&P and L&S segments, respectively. MarkWest Utica EMG MarkWest Utica EMG, L.L.C. (“MarkWest Utica EMG”) is deemed to be a VIE. Neither MPLX nor any of its subsidiaries is deemed to be the primary beneficiary due to EMG Utica, L.L.C.’s voting rights on significant matters. MPLX’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with MarkWest Utica EMG includes its equity investment, any additional capital contribution commitments and any operating expenses incurred by the subsidiary operator in excess of its compensation received for the performance of the operating services. MarkWest Utica EMG holds an investment in its subsidiary, Ohio Gathering Company, L.L.C. (“Ohio Gathering”), which does not appear elsewhere in the tables above. The investment was $788 million and $750 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively.

As Ohio Gathering is a subsidiary of MarkWest Utica EMG, which is accounted for as an equity method investment, MPLX reports its portion of Ohio Gathering’s net assets as a component of its investment in MarkWest Utica EMG. Sherwood Midstream Sherwood Midstream LLC (“Sherwood Midstream”) is deemed to be a VIE.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Sherwood Midstream acquired the right to fractionation revenue and the obligation to pay expenses related to 20 mbpd of capacity in the Hopedale 4 fractionator; this transaction is shown as “Contributions from noncontrolling interests” on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. MarkWest Liberty Midstream & Resources, L.L.C (“MarkWest Liberty Midstream”), a wholly-owned and consolidated subsidiary, has been deemed to be the primary beneficiary of Ohio Fractionation because it has control over the decisions that could significantly impact its financial performance, and as a result, consolidates Ohio Fractionation. The creditors of Ohio Fractionation do not have recourse to MPLX LP’s general credit through guarantees or other financial arrangements. The assets of Ohio Fractionation are the property of Ohio Fractionation and cannot be used to satisfy the obligations of MPLX LP. Sherwood Midstream’s interests are reflected in “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests” on the Consolidated Statements of Income and “Noncontrolling interests” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Sherwood Midstream Holdings MPLX accounts for Sherwood Midstream Holdings LLC (“Sherwood Midstream Holdings”), which is a VIE, as an equity method investment as Sherwood Midstream is considered to be the general partner and controls all decisions.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , these sales totaled $112 million and $191 million , respectively. Related Party Expenses MPC provides executive management services and certain general and administrative services to MPLX under the terms of an omnibus agreement (“Omnibus charges”). Omnibus charges included in “Rental cost of sales - related parties” primarily relate to services that support MPLX’s rental operations and maintenance of assets available for rent. Omnibus charges included in “Purchases - related parties” primarily relate to services that support MPLX’s operations and maintenance activities, as well as compensation expenses. Omnibus charges included in “General and administrative expenses” primarily relate to services that support MPLX’s executive management, accounting and human resources activities. MPLX LP also obtains employee services from MPC under employee services agreements (“ESA charges”). ESA charges for personnel directly involved in or supporting operations and maintenance activities related to rental services are classified as “Rental cost of sales - related parties.” ESA charges for personnel directly involved in or supporting operations and maintenance activities related to other services are classified as “Purchases - related parties.” ESA charges for personnel involved in executive management, accounting and human resources activities are classified as “General and administrative expenses.” In addition to these agreements, MPLX purchases products from MPC, makes payments to MPC in its capacity as general contractor to MPLX, and has certain rent and lease agreements with MPC. Expenses incurred from MPC under the omnibus and employee services agreements as well as other purchases from MPC included on the Consolidated Statements of Income are as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Rental cost of sales - related parties $ 2 $ — $ 5 $ 1 Purchases - related parties 239 223 451 400 General and administrative expenses 43 44 93 83 Total $ 284 $ 267 $ 549 $ 484 Some charges incurred under the omnibus and ESA agreements are related to engineering services and are associated with assets under construction. These charges are added to “Property, plant and equipment, net” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , these charges totaled $38 million and $79 million , respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 , these charges totaled $41 million and $63 million , respectively. Related Party Assets and Liabilities Assets and liabilities with related parties appearing on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are detailed in the table below. This table identifies the various components of related party assets and liabilities, including those associated with leases (see Note 19 for additional information) and deferred revenue on minimum volume commitments. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018 , MPC did not ship its minimum committed volumes on certain pipelines. Under MPLX’s pipeline transportation services agreements, if MPC fails to transport its minimum throughput volumes during any quarter, then MPC will pay MPLX a deficiency payment equal to the volume of the deficiency multiplied by the tariff rate then in effect. The deficiency amounts are recorded as “Current liabilities - related parties.” MPC may then apply the amount of any such deficiency payments as a credit for volumes transported on the applicable pipeline in excess of its minimum volume commitment in future periods under the terms of the applicable transportation services agreement. MPLX recognizes related party revenues for the deficiency payments when credits are used for volumes transported in excess of minimum quarterly volume commitments, where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods or upon the expiration of the credits. The use or expiration of the credits is a decrease in “Current liabilities - related parties.” In addition, capital projects MPLX is undertaking at the request of MPC are reimbursed in cash and recognized in income over the remaining term of the applicable agreements.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit	Net Income/(Loss) Per Limited Partner Unit Net income/(loss) per unit applicable to common units is computed by dividing net income/(loss) attributable to MPLX LP less income/(loss) allocated to participating securities by the weighted average number of common units outstanding. Additional MPLX common units and MPLX Series B preferred units were issued on July 30, 2019 as a result of the merger with ANDX as discussed in Note 3. Distributions declared on these newly-issued common and Series B preferred units are a reduction to income available to MPLX common unit holders due to their participation in distributions of second quarter income. The classes of participating securities include common units, certain equity-based compensation awards, Series A preferred units and Series B preferred units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and common units, certain equity-based compensation awards and Series A preferred units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 , MPLX had dilutive potential common units consisting of certain equity-based compensation awards. Potential common units omitted from the diluted earnings per unit calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were less than 1 million .

Equity [Abstract]
Equity	Equity The changes in the number of common units outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2019 are summarized below: (In units) Common Balance at December 31, 2018 794,089,518 Unit-based compensation awards 260,101 Balance at June 30, 2019 794,349,619 Cash distributions – In accordance with the MPLX partnership agreement, on July 22, 2019 , MPLX declared a quarterly cash distribution, based on the results of the second quarter of 2019 , totaling $692 million , or $0.6675 per common unit, which includes common units issued on July 30, 2019 as a result of the Merger. This rate will also be received by Series A preferred unitholders. These distributions will be paid on August 14, 2019 to common unitholders of record on August 5, 2019 . Additionally, as a result of the Merger, 600,000 ANDX preferred units were converted into 600,000 preferred units of MPLX (the “Series B preferred units”). Series B preferred unitholders are entitled to receive, when and if declared by the board, a fixed distribution of $68.75 per unit, per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15. Accordingly a cash distribution payment totaling $21 million will be paid to Series B unitholders on August 15, 2019. Quarterly distributions for 2019 and 2018 are summarized below: (Per common unit) 2019 2018 March 31, $ 0.6575 $ 0.6175 June 30, $ 0.6675 $ 0.6275 The allocation of total quarterly cash distributions to limited and preferred unitholders is as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 . MPLX’s distributions are declared subsequent to quarter end; therefore, the following table represents total cash distributions applicable to the period in which the distributions were earned, except for the Series B preferred unit distributions which were earned throughout 2019, prior to the merger being completed. Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Common and preferred unit distributions: Common unitholders, includes common units of general partner $ 692 $ 497 $ 1,215 $ 964 Series A preferred unit distributions 21 20 41 36 Series B preferred unit distributions 21 — 21 — Total cash distributions declared $ 734 $ 517 $ 1,277 $ 1,000 The distribution on common units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 includes the impact of the issuance of approximately 102 million units issued to public unitholders and approximately 161 million units issued to MPC in connection with MPLX's acquisition of ANDX on July 30, 2019. Had the transaction been completed subsequent to our distribution record date, distributions would have been $163 million lower for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. This is net of $12.5 million of waived distributions with respect to units held by MPC and its affiliates. The $12.5 million quarterly distribution waiver will continue through 2019. Total distributions excluding the newly issued common units associated with the merger and the Series B preferred units were $550 million and $1,093 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Redeemable Preferred Units	Redeemable Series A Preferred Units Private Placement of Series A Preferred Units – On May 13, 2016, MPLX LP completed the private placement of approximately 30.8 million 6.5 percent Series A Convertible preferred units for a cash purchase price of $32.50 per unit. The aggregate net proceeds of approximately $984 million from the sale of the preferred units were used for capital expenditures, repayment of debt and general business purposes. The Series A preferred units rank senior to all common units and pari passu with all Series B preferred units with respect to distributions and rights upon liquidation. The holders of the Series A preferred units received cumulative quarterly distributions equal to $0.528125 per unit for each quarter prior to the second quarter of 2018. Beginning with the second quarter of 2018, the holders of the Series A preferred units are entitled to receive, when and if declared by the board, a quarterly distribution equal to the greater of $0.528125 per unit or the amount of distributions they would have received on an as converted basis. On July 22, 2019 , MPLX declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.6675 per common unit representing the distribution of income earned during the second quarter of 2019 . The Series A preferred units will receive the common unit rate in lieu of the lower $0.528125 base amount. The changes in the redeemable preferred balance from December 31, 2018 through June 30, 2019 are summarized below: (In millions) Redeemable Preferred Units Balance at December 31, 2018 $ 1,004 Net income allocated 41 Distributions received by Series A preferred unitholders (40 ) Balance at June 30, 2019 $ 1,005 The holders may convert their Series A preferred units into common units at any time after the third anniversary of the issuance date or prior to liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, in full or in part, subject to minimum conversion amounts and conditions. After the fourth anniversary of the issuance date, MPLX may convert the Series A preferred units into common units at any time, in whole or in part, subject to certain minimum conversion amounts and conditions, if the closing price of MPLX LP common units is greater than $48.75 for the 20-day trading period immediately preceding the conversion notice date. The conversion rate for the Series A preferred units shall be the quotient of (a) the sum of (i) $32.50, plus (ii) any unpaid cash distributions on the applicable preferred unit, divided by (b) $32.50, subject to adjustment for unit distributions, unit splits and similar transactions. The holders of the Series A preferred units are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the common unitholders and have certain other class voting rights with respect to any amendment to the MPLX partnership agreement that would adversely affect any rights, preferences or privileges of the preferred units. In addition, upon certain events involving a change of control, the holders of preferred units may elect, among other potential elections, to convert their Series A preferred units to common units at the then change of control conversion rate. The Series A preferred units are considered redeemable securities under GAAP due to the existence of redemption provisions upon a deemed liquidation event which is outside MPLX’s control. Therefore, they are presented as temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Series A preferred units have been recorded at their issuance date fair value, net of issuance costs. Income allocations increase the carrying value and declared distributions decrease the carrying value of the Series A preferred units. As the Series A preferred units are not currently redeemable and not probable of becoming redeemable, adjustment to the initial carrying amount is not necessary and would only be required if it becomes probable that the Series A preferred units would become redeemable.

The following table presents the financial instruments carried at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 by fair value hierarchy level. MPLX has elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty. June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 (In millions) Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) Embedded derivatives in commodity contracts $ — $ (65 ) $ — $ (61 ) Total carrying value on Consolidated Balance Sheets $ — $ (65 ) $ — $ (61 ) Level 3 instruments include all NGL transactions and embedded derivatives in commodity contracts. The embedded derivative liability relates to a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement. The fair value calculation for these Level 3 instruments used significant unobservable inputs including: (1) NGL prices interpolated and extrapolated due to inactive markets ranging from $0.46 to $1.14 and (2) the probability of renewal of 92 percent for the first five-year term and 82 percent for the second five-year term of the gas purchase commitment and related keep-whole processing agreement. Increases or decreases in the fractionation spread result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the embedded derivative liability, respectively. An increase in the probability of renewal would result in an increase in the fair value of the related embedded derivative liability. Beyond the embedded derivative discussed above, we had no outstanding commodity contracts as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018 . Changes in Level 3 Fair Value Measurements The following table is a reconciliation of the net beginning and ending balances recorded for net assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Gains and losses on derivatives embedded in commodity contracts are recorded in “Purchased product costs” and “Cost of revenues” on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Fair Values – Reported MPLX’s primary financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, receivables, receivables from related parties, accounts payable, payables to related parties and long-term debt. MPLX’s fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including (1) the duration of the instruments, (2) MPC’s investment-grade credit rating and (3) the historical incurrence of and expected future insignificance of bad debt expense, which includes an evaluation of counterparty credit risk. MPLX believes the carrying values of its current assets and liabilities approximate fair value. The recorded value of the amounts outstanding under the bank revolving credit facility, if any, approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate that approximates current market rates. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value, based on available market information (see Note 13 ). The fair value of MPLX’s long-term debt is estimated based on recent market non-binding indicative quotes. The fair value of the SMR liability is estimated using a discounted cash flow approach based on the contractual cash flows and MPLX’s unsecured borrowing rate. The long-term debt and SMR liability fair values are considered Level 3 measurements. The following table summarizes the fair value and carrying value of the long-term debt, excluding finance leases, and SMR liability: June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 (In millions) Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Long-term debt $ 15,282 $ 14,123 $ 13,169 $ 13,484 SMR liability $ 94 $ 83 $ 92 $ 86

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block]	Derivative Financial Instruments As of June 30, 2019 , MPLX had no outstanding commodity contracts beyond the embedded derivative discussed below. Embedded Derivative - MPLX has a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement with a producer customer in the Southern Appalachian region expiring in December 2022. The customer has the unilateral option to extend the agreement for two consecutive five-year terms through December 2032. For accounting purposes, the natural gas purchase commitment and the term extending options have been aggregated into a single compound embedded derivative. The probability of the customer exercising its options is determined based on assumptions about the customer’s potential business strategy decision points that may exist at the time they would elect whether to renew the contract. The changes in fair value of this compound embedded derivative are based on the difference between the contractual and index pricing, the probability of the producer customer exercising its option to extend and the estimated favorability of these contracts compared to current market conditions. The changes in fair value are recorded in earnings through “Purchased product costs” on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the estimated fair value of this contract was a liability of $ 65 million and $ 61 million , respectively. Certain derivative positions are subject to master netting agreements, therefore, MPLX has elected to offset derivative assets and liabilities that are legally permissible to be offset. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , there were no derivative assets or liabilities that were offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The impact of MPLX’s derivative instruments on its Consolidated Balance Sheets is summarized below: (In millions) June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Derivative contracts not designated as hedging instruments and their balance sheet location Asset Liability Asset Liability Commodity contracts (1) Other current assets / Other current liabilities $ — $ (7 ) $ — $ (7 ) Other noncurrent assets / Deferred credits and other liabilities — (58 ) — (54 ) Total $ — $ (65 ) $ — $ (61 ) (1) Includes embedded derivatives in commodity contracts as discussed above.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block]	Revenue Disaggregation of Revenue The following tables represent a disaggregation of revenue for each reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 : Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 (In millions) L&S G&P Total Revenues and other income: Service revenue $ 33 $ 415 $ 448 Service revenue - related parties 620 — 620 Service revenue - product related — 26 26 Product sales (1) 2 166 168 Product sales - related parties 2 12 14 Total revenues from contracts with customers $ 657 $ 619 1,276 Non-ASC 606 revenue (2) 353 Total revenues and other income $ 1,629 Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 (In millions) L&S G&P Total Revenues and other income: Service revenue $ 32 $ 378 $ 410 Service revenue - related parties 549 — 549 Service revenue - product related — 51 51 Product sales (1) 1 207 208 Product sales - related parties 2 11 13 Total revenues from contracts with customers $ 584 $ 647 1,231 Non-ASC 606 revenue (2) 347 Total revenues and other income $ 1,578 Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 (In millions) L&S G&P Total Revenues and other income: Service revenue $ 67 $ 819 $ 886 Service revenue - related parties 1,198 — 1,198 Service revenue - product related — 60 60 Product sales (1) 3 367 370 Product sales - related parties 4 21 25 Total revenues from contracts with customers $ 1,272 $ 1,267 2,539 Non-ASC 606 revenue (2) 736 Total revenues and other income $ 3,275 Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 (In millions) L&S G&P Total Revenues and other income: Service revenue $ 60 $ 732 $ 792 Service revenue - related parties 1,020 — 1,020 Service revenue - product related — 95 95 Product sales (1) 2 412 414 Product sales - related parties 3 14 17 Total revenues from contracts with customers $ 1,085 $ 1,253 2,338 Non-ASC 606 revenue (2) 660 Total revenues and other income $ 2,998 (1) G&P “Product sales” for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 includes approximately $2 million and $1 million of revenue related to derivative gains and losses and mark-to-market adjustments, respectively. There were no adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 . (2) Non-ASC 606 Revenue includes rental income, income from equity method investments, derivative gains and losses, mark-to-market adjustments, and other income. Contract Balances Contract assets typically relate to aid in construction agreements where the revenue recognized and MPLX’s rights to consideration for work completed exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract assets are generally classified as current and included in “Other current assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities, which we refer to as “Deferred revenue” and “Long-term deferred revenue,” typically relate to advance payments for aid in construction agreements and deferred customer credits associated with makeup rights and minimum volume commitments. Related to minimum volume commitments, breakage is estimated and recognized into service revenue in instances where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods. We classify contract liabilities as current or long-term based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue. “Receivables, net” primarily relate to our commodity sales. Portions of the “Receivables, net” balance are attributed to the sale of commodity product controlled by MPLX prior to sale while a significant portion of the balance relates to the sale of commodity product on behalf of our producer customers. Both types of transactions are commingled and excluded from the table below. MPLX remits the net sales price back to our producer customers upon completion of the sale. Each period end, certain amounts within accounts payable relate to our payments to producer customers. Such amounts are not deemed material at period end as a result of when we settle with each producer. The table below reflects the changes in our contract balances for the period ended June 30, 2019 : (In millions) Balance at December 31, 2018 (1) Additions/ (Deletions) Revenue Recognized (2) Balance at June 30, 2019 Contract assets $ 4 $ 2 $ (1 ) $ 5 Deferred revenue 4 2 (1 ) 5 Deferred revenue - related parties 50 4 (17 ) 37 Long-term deferred revenue 10 3 — 13 Long-term deferred revenue - related parties $ 42 $ (2 ) $ — $ 40 (1) Balance represents ASC 606 portion of each respective line item. (2) No significant revenue was recognized related to past performance obligations in the current period. Remaining Performance Obligations The table below includes estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at the end of the reporting period. As of June 30, 2019 , the amounts allocated to contract assets and contract liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are $93 million and are reflected in the amounts below. This will be recognized as revenue as the obligations are satisfied, which is expected to occur over the next 25 years . Further, MPLX does not disclose variable consideration due to volume variability in the table below. (In millions) 2019 $ 587 2020 1,181 2021 1,196 2022 1,181 2023 and thereafter 5,655 Total revenue on remaining performance obligations (1),(2),(3) $ 9,800 (1) All fixed consideration from contracts with customers is included in the amounts presented above. Variable consideration that is constrained or not required to be estimated as it reflects our efforts to perform is excluded. (2) Arrangements deemed implicit leases are included in “Rental income” and are excluded from this table. (3) Only minimum volume commitments that are deemed fixed are included in the table above. MPLX has various minimum volume commitments in processing arrangements that vary based on the actual Btu content of the gas received. These amounts are deemed variable consideration and are excluded from the table above. We do not disclose information on the future performance obligations for any contract with an original expected duration of one year or less.

Equity-Based Compensation Plan	Equity-Based Compensation Phantom Units – The following is a summary of phantom unit award activity of MPLX LP common units for the six months ended June 30, 2019 : Number Weighted Outstanding at December 31, 2018 1,154,335 $ 34.34 Granted 197,345 33.08 Settled (377,559 ) 33.42 Forfeited (16,255 ) 34.82 Outstanding at June 30, 2019 957,866 $ 34.44 Performance Units – MPLX grants performance units to certain officers of the general partner and certain eligible MPC officers who make significant contributions to its business. These performance units pay out 75 percent in cash and 25 percent in MPLX LP common units and often contain both market and performance conditions based on various metrics. Market conditions are valued using a Monte Carlo valuation while performance conditions are reevaluated periodically and valued at the compensation cost associated with the performance outcome deemed most probable. The performance units granted in 2019 are hybrid awards having a three-year performance period of January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2021. The payout of the award is dependent on two independent conditions, each constituting 50 percent of the overall target units granted. The awards have a performance condition based on MPLX LP’s distributable cash flow, and a market condition based on MPLX LP’s total unitholder return. The market condition was valued using a Monte Carlo valuation, resulting in a grant date fair value of $.68 per unit for the 2019 equity-classified performance units. Grant date fair value of the performance condition is based on potential payouts per unit of up to $2.00 per unit. Compensation cost associated with the performance condition is based on the grant date fair value of the payout deemed most probable to occur and is adjusted as the expectation for payout changes. During the first quarter of 2018, a performance award was granted; however, a grant date could not be established based on the nature of the award terms. Given that a grant date cannot be established, no expense or units have been recorded. When a grant date is established, the fair value of the award will be recognized over the remaining performance period. The following is a summary of the activity for performance unit awards to be settled in MPLX LP common units for the six months ended June 30, 2019 : Number of Outstanding at December 31, 2018 1,941,750 Granted 987,994 Settled (772,397 ) Forfeited — Outstanding at June 30, 2019 2,157,347

Lessee, Finance Leases [Text Block]	Lessee We lease a wide variety of facilities and equipment under leases from third parties, including land and building space, office and field equipment, storage facilities and transportation equipment, while our related party leases primarily relate to ground leases associated with our refining logistics assets. Our remaining lease terms range from less than one year to 60 years. Some long-term leases include renewal options ranging from one to 50 years and, in certain leases, also include purchase options. Renewal options and termination options were not included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities since it was determined they were not reasonably certain to be exercised.

Lessor, Operating Leases [Text Block]	Lessor Based on the terms of fee-based transportation and storage services agreements with MPC as well as certain natural gas gathering, transportation and processing agreements, MPLX is considered to be the lessor under several operating lease arrangements in accordance with GAAP. The agreements with MPC have remaining terms ranging from less than one year to 12 years with renewal options ranging from zero to 10 years. MPLX’s primary natural gas lease operations relate to a natural gas gathering agreement in the Marcellus Shale for which it earns a fixed-fee for providing gathering services to a single producer using a dedicated gathering system. As the gathering system is expanded, the fixed-fee charged to the producer is adjusted to include the additional gathering assets in the lease. The primary term of the natural gas gathering arrangement expires in 2038 and will continue thereafter on a year-to-year basis until terminated by either party. Other significant natural gas implicit leases relate to a natural gas processing agreement in the Marcellus Shale and a natural gas processing agreement in the Southern Appalachia region for which MPLX earns minimum monthly fees for providing processing services to a single producer using a dedicated processing plant. The primary term of these natural gas processing agreements expires during 2023 and 2033, these contracts will continue thereafter on a year-to-year basis until terminated by either party. MPLX’s revenue from its lease arrangements, excluding executory costs, totaled approximately $216 million and $464 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , respectively. MPLX did not elect to use the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for lessor arrangements. The tables below represent the portion of the contract allocated to the lease component based on relative standalone selling price. Lessor agreements are currently deemed operating, as we elected the practical expedient to carry forward historical classification conclusions. We will determine the impact of the new standard on these arrangements if and when a modification occurs and they are required to be assessed under ASC 842. MPLX may be required to re-classify existing operating leases to sales-type leases upon modification and related reassessment of the leases. MPLX’s lease arrangements related to the processing facilities contain contingent rental provisions whereby MPLX receives additional fees if the producer customer exceeds the monthly minimum processed volumes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 , MPLX received less than $1 million of contingent lease payments. The following is a schedule of minimum future rental revenue on the non-cancellable operating leases as of June 30, 2019 : (In millions) Related Party Third Party Total 2019 $ 316 $ 90 $ 406 2020 633 178 811 2021 636 169 805 2022 635 166 801 2023 623 161 784 2024 and thereafter 2,409 1,264 3,673 Total minimum future rentals $ 5,252 $ 2,028 $ 7,280 The following is a schedule of minimum future rental revenue on the non-cancellable operating leases as of December 31, 2018: (In millions) Related Party Third Party Total 2019 $ 748 $ 160 $ 908 2020 750 159 909 2021 627 150 777 2022 627 148 775 2023 616 142 758 2024 and thereafter 2,321 1,111 3,432 Total minimum future rentals $ 5,689 $ 1,870 $ 7,559 The following schedule summarizes MPLX’s investment in assets held for operating lease by major classes as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 : (In millions) June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Natural gas gathering and NGL transportation pipelines and facilities $ 1,038 $ 964 Processing, fractionation and storage facilities 1,550 1,398 Pipelines and related assets 275 266 Barges and towing vessels 656 619 Terminals and related assets 1,185 1,178 Refinery related assets 949 938 Land, building, office equipment and other 207 162 Total 5,860 5,525 Less accumulated depreciation 2,230 2,038 Property, plant and equipment, net $ 3,630 $ 3,487

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]	Commitments and Contingencies MPLX is the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. Some of these matters are discussed below. For matters for which MPLX has not recorded an accrued liability, MPLX is unable to estimate a range of possible losses for the reasons discussed in more detail below. For matters for which MPLX has recorded an accrued liability, MPLX does not consider it reasonably possible that a loss resulting from such matter in excess of any amounts accrued has been incurred that is expected to have a material adverse effect on MPLX’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the ultimate resolution of some of these contingencies could, individually or in the aggregate, be material. Environmental Matters – MPLX is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites. Penalties may be imposed for non-compliance. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , accrued liabilities for remediation totaled $16 million and $14 million , respectively. However, it is not presently possible to estimate the ultimate amount of all remediation costs that might be incurred or the penalties, if any, which may be imposed. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , there were no balances with MPC for indemnification of environmental costs. MPLX is involved in environmental enforcement matters arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome and impact on MPLX LP cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the resolution of these environmental matters will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Other Lawsuits – MPLX, MarkWest, MarkWest Liberty Midstream, MarkWest Liberty Bluestone, L.L.C., Ohio Fractionation and MarkWest Utica EMG (collectively, the “MPLX Parties”) are parties to various lawsuits with Bilfinger Westcon, Inc. (“Westcon”) that were instituted in 2016 and 2017 in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio. The lawsuits relate to disputes regarding construction work performed by Westcon at the Bluestone, Mobley and Cadiz processing complexes in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio, respectively, and the Hopedale fractionation complex in Ohio. With respect to work performed by Westcon at the Mobley and Bluestone processing complexes, one or more of the MPLX Parties have asserted breach of contract, fraud, and with respect to work performed at the Mobley processing complex, MarkWest Liberty Midstream has also asserted negligent misrepresentation claims against Westcon. Westcon has also asserted claims against one or more of the MPLX Parties regarding these construction projects for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, promissory estoppel, fraud and constructive fraud, tortious interference with contractual relations, and civil conspiracy. Collectively, in the several cases, the MPLX Parties sought in excess of $10 million , plus an unspecified amount of punitive damages. Collectively, in the several cases, Westcon sought in excess of $40 million , plus an unspecified amount of punitive damages. On July 31, 2019, Westcon and the MPLX Parties reached an agreement to resolve the disputes among those parties relating to the Bluestone processing complex in Pennsylvania. The settlement will not have a material adverse effect on MPLX’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, MPLX does not consider it reasonably possible that a loss resulting from the remaining lawsuits or other proceedings in excess of any amounts accrued has been incurred that is expected to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In 2003, the State of Illinois brought an action against the Premcor Refining Group, Inc. (“Premcor”) and Apex Refining Company (“Apex”) asserting claims for environmental cleanup related to the refinery owned by these entities in the Hartford/Wood River, Illinois area. In 2006, Premcor and Apex filed third-party complaints against numerous owners and operators of petroleum products facilities in the Hartford/Wood River, Illinois area, including Marathon Pipe Line LLC (“MPL”). These complaints, which have been amended since filing, assert claims of common law nuisance and contribution under the Illinois Contribution Act and other laws for environmental cleanup costs that may be imposed on Premcor and Apex by the State of Illinois. On September 6, 2016, the trial court approved a settlement between Apex and the State of Illinois whereby Apex agreed to settle all claims against it for a $10 million payment. Premcor filed a motion for permissive appeal and requested a stay to the proceeding until the motion is ruled upon. Premcor reached a settlement with the State of Illinois in the second quarter of 2018, which has been objected to by certain third-party defendants, including MPL, and is subject to court approval. Several third-party defendants in the litigation including MPL have asserted cross-claims in contribution against the various third-party defendants. This litigation is currently pending in the Third Judicial Circuit Court, Madison County, Illinois. The trial concerning Premcor’s claims against third-party defendants, including MPL, previously scheduled to commence September 10, 2018, has been postponed and a new trial date has not been set. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, MPLX does not consider it reasonably possible that a loss resulting from such lawsuits or other proceedings in excess of any amounts accrued has been incurred that is expected to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Under the omnibus agreement, MPC will indemnify MPLX for the full cost of any losses should MPL be deemed responsible for any damages in this lawsuit. MPLX is also a party to a number of other lawsuits and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, MPLX believes the resolution of these other lawsuits and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Guarantees – Over the years, MPLX has sold various assets in the normal course of its business. Certain of the related agreements contain performance and general guarantees, including guarantees regarding inaccuracies in representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, and environmental and general indemnifications that require MPLX to perform upon the occurrence of a triggering event or condition. These guarantees and indemnifications are part of the normal course of selling assets. MPLX is typically not able to calculate the maximum potential amount of future payments that could be made under such contractual provisions because of the variability inherent in the guarantees and indemnities. Most often, the nature of the guarantees and indemnities is such that there is no appropriate method for quantifying the exposure because the underlying triggering event has little or no past experience upon which a reasonable prediction of the outcome can be based. In connection with our approximate 9 percent indirect interest in a joint venture that owns and operates the Dakota Access Pipeline and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline projects, collectively referred to as the Bakken Pipeline system, we have entered into a Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement whereby MPLX LP, along with the other joint venture owners in the Bakken Pipeline system, have agreed to make equity contributions to the joint venture upon certain events occurring to allow the entities that own and operate the Bakken Pipeline system to satisfy their senior note payment obligations. The senior notes were issued to repay amounts owed by the pipeline companies to fund the cost of construction of Bakken Pipeline system. As of June 30, 2019 , our maximum potential undiscounted payments under the Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement were approximately $230 million . Contractual Commitments and Contingencies – At June 30, 2019 , MPLX’s contractual commitments to acquire property, plant and equipment totaled $528 million . These commitments were primarily related to plant expansion projects for the Marcellus and Southwest Operations. In addition, from time to time and in the ordinary course of business, MPLX and its affiliates provide guarantees of MPLX’s subsidiaries payment and performance obligations in the G&P segment. Certain natural gas processing and gathering arrangements require MPLX to construct new natural gas processing plants, natural gas gathering pipelines and NGL pipelines and contain certain fees and charges if specified construction milestones are not achieved for reasons other than force majeure. In certain cases, certain producers may have the right to cancel the processing arrangements if there are significant delays that are not due to force majeure. As of June 30, 2019 , management does not believe there are any indications that MPLX will not be able to meet the construction milestones, that force majeure does not apply or that such fees and charges will otherwise be triggered.

Subsequent Event [Line Items]
Subsequent Events [Text Block]	Subsequent Events As previously disclosed, on May 7, 2019, ANDX, TLGP, MPLX, MPLX GP and Merger Sub, entered into a Merger Agreement that provided for, among other things, the merger of Merger Sub with and into ANDX. On July 30, 2019, the Merger was completed, and ANDX survived the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPLX. At the effective time of the Merger, each common unit held by ANDX’s public unitholders was converted into the right to receive 1.135 MPLX common units. ANDX common units held by certain affiliates of MPC were converted into the right to receive 1.0328 MPLX common units.

Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block]	Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation Description of the Business – MPLX LP is a diversified, large-cap master limited partnership formed by Marathon Petroleum Corporation that owns and operates midstream energy infrastructure and logistics assets, and provides fuels distribution services. References in this report to “MPLX LP,” “MPLX,” “the Partnership,” “we,” “ours,” “us,” or like terms refer to MPLX LP and its subsidiaries. References to “MPC” refer collectively to Marathon Petroleum Corporation as our sponsor and its subsidiaries, other than the Partnership. We are engaged in the transportation, storage and distribution of crude oil and refined petroleum products; the gathering, processing and transportation of natural gas; and the gathering, transportation, fractionation, storage and marketing of NGLs. MPLX’s principal executive office is located in Findlay, Ohio. MPLX’s business consists of two segments based on the nature of services it offers: Logistics and Storage (“L&S”), which relates primarily to crude oil and refined petroleum products; and Gathering and Processing (“G&P”), which relates primarily to natural gas and NGLs. See Note 9 for additional information regarding the operations and results of these segments. On July 30, 2019, MPLX completed its acquisition by merger (the “Merger”) of Andeavor Logistics LP (“ANDX”). At the effective time of the Merger, each common unit held by ANDX’s public unitholders was converted into the right to receive 1.135 MPLX common units. ANDX common units held by certain affiliates of MPC were converted into the right to receive 1.0328 MPLX common units. See Note 3 for additional information regarding the Merger. Basis of Presentation – The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of MPLX’s management, these statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. These interim consolidated financial statements, including the notes, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim period financial statements and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. MPLX’s consolidated financial statements include all majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. For non-wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries, the interests owned by third parties have been recorded as “Noncontrolling interests” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Intercompany investments, accounts and transactions have been eliminated. MPLX’s investments in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for using the equity method. MPLX’s investments in a VIE in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are also accounted for using the equity method. In preparing the Consolidated Statements of Equity, net income attributable to MPLX LP is allocated to Series A preferred unitholders based on a fixed distribution schedule. Distributions, although earned, are not accrued until declared. The allocation of net income attributable to MPLX LP for purposes of calculating net income per limited partner unit is described in Note 6 .

Schedule of Recognized Identified Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed [Table Text Block]	MPC accounted for its October 1, 2018 acquisition of Andeavor (including acquiring control of ANDX), using the acquisition method of accounting which required Andeavor assets and liabilities to be recorded by MPC at the acquisition date fair value. As a result of MPC’s relationship with both MPLX and ANDX, the Merger will be treated as a common control transaction, which requires the recognition of assets and liabilities acquired using MPC’s historical basis as of October 1, 2018. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed shown below have been pushed down from MPC and are considered preliminary as MPC has not yet completed a final determination of the respective fair values related to its acquisition of Andeavor. The preliminary purchase consideration allocation may change based on additional information received. Adjustments to this allocation can be made through the end of MPC’s measurement period, which is not to exceed one year from the Andeavor acquisition date.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018 , MPC did not ship its minimum committed volumes on certain pipelines. Under MPLX’s pipeline transportation services agreements, if MPC fails to transport its minimum throughput volumes during any quarter, then MPC will pay MPLX a deficiency payment equal to the volume of the deficiency multiplied by the tariff rate then in effect. The deficiency amounts are recorded as “Current liabilities - related parties.” MPC may then apply the amount of any such deficiency payments as a credit for volumes transported on the applicable pipeline in excess of its minimum volume commitment in future periods under the terms of the applicable transportation services agreement. MPLX recognizes related party revenues for the deficiency payments when credits are used for volumes transported in excess of minimum quarterly volume commitments, where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods or upon the expiration of the credits. The use or expiration of the credits is a decrease in “Current liabilities - related parties.” In addition, capital projects MPLX is undertaking at the request of MPC are reimbursed in cash and recognized in income over the remaining term of the applicable agreements.

Schedule of Fair Value, Assets and Liabilities Measured on Recurring Basis [Table Text Block]	The following table presents the financial instruments carried at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 by fair value hierarchy level. MPLX has elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative contracts executed with the same counterparty.

Fair Value Inputs Assets and Liabilities Quantitative Information [Table Text Block]	Level 3 instruments include all NGL transactions and embedded derivatives in commodity contracts. The embedded derivative liability relates to a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement. The fair value calculation for these Level 3 instruments used significant unobservable inputs including: (1) NGL prices interpolated and extrapolated due to inactive markets ranging from $0.46 to $1.14 and (2) the probability of renewal of 92 percent for the first five-year term and 82 percent for the second five-year term of the gas purchase commitment and related keep-whole processing agreement. Increases or decreases in the fractionation spread result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the embedded derivative liability, respectively. An increase in the probability of renewal would result in an increase in the fair value of the related embedded derivative liability. Beyond the embedded derivative discussed above, we had no outstanding commodity contracts as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018 .

After the fourth anniversary of the issuance date, MPLX may convert the Series A preferred units into common units at any time, in whole or in part, subject to certain minimum conversion amounts and conditions, if the closing price of MPLX LP common units is greater than $48.75 for the 20-day trading period immediately preceding the conversion notice date. The conversion rate for the Series A preferred units shall be the quotient of (a) the sum of (i) $32.50, plus (ii) any unpaid cash distributions on the applicable preferred unit, divided by (b) $32.50, subject to adjustment for unit distributions, unit splits and similar transactions. The holders of the Series A preferred units are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the common unitholders and have certain other class voting rights with respect to any amendment to the MPLX partnership agreement that would adversely affect any rights, preferences or privileges of the preferred units. In addition, upon certain events involving a change of control, the holders of preferred units may elect, among other potential elections, to convert their Series A preferred units to common units at the then change of control conversion rate.
