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 gathering, transportation, storage and distribution of crude oil, refined products and other hydrocarbon-based products; the gathering, processing and transportation of natural gas; and the 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, refined products and other hydrocarbon-based products; and Gathering and Processing (“G&P”), which relates primarily to natural gas and NGLs. See Note 7 for additional information regarding the operations and results of these segments. 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 information derived from our audited annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, has been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 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 VIEs in which MPLX exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are also accounted for using the equity method.

(2) Investments deemed to be VIEs. Some investments included within Other have also been deemed to be VIEs. For those entities that have been deemed to be VIEs, neither MPLX nor any of its subsidiaries have been deemed to be the primary beneficiary due to voting rights on significant matters. While we have the ability to exercise influence through participation in the management committees which make all significant decisions, we have equal influence over each committee as a joint interest partner and all significant decisions require the consent of the other investors without regard to economic interest; as such, we have determined that these entities should not be consolidated and apply the equity method of accounting with respect to our investments in each entity. Sherwood Midstream LLC (“Sherwood Midstream”) has been deemed the primary beneficiary of Sherwood Midstream Holdings LLC (“Sherwood Midstream Holdings”) due to its controlling financial interest through its authority to manage the joint venture. As a result, Sherwood Midstream consolidates Sherwood Midstream Holdings. Therefore, MPLX also reports its portion of Sherwood Midstream Holdings’ net assets as a component of its investment in Sherwood Midstream. As of June 30, 2022, MPLX has a 24.55 percent indirect ownership interest in Sherwood Midstream Holdings through Sherwood Midstream. MPLX’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with equity method investments 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. MPLX did not provide any financial support to equity method investments that it was not contractually obligated to provide during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Summarized financial information for MPLX’s equity method investments for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 (In millions) VIEs Non-VIEs Total Revenues and other income $ 550 $ 637 $ 1,187 Costs and expenses 299 279 578 Income from operations 251 358 609 Net income 227 328 555 Income from equity method investments $ 124 $ 86 $ 210 Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 (In millions) VIEs Non-VIEs Total Revenues and other income $ 336 $ 607 $ 943 Costs and expenses 217 284 501 Income from operations 119 323 442 Net income 105 283 388 Income from equity method investments $ 73 $ 63 $ 136 Summarized balance sheet information for MPLX’s equity method investments as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is as follows: June 30, 2022 (In millions) VIEs Non-VIEs Total Current assets $ 363 $ 394 $ 757 Noncurrent assets 7,583 5,062 12,645 Current liabilities 292 249 541 Noncurrent liabilities $ 2,464 $ 805 $ 3,269 December 31, 2021 (In millions) VIEs Non-VIEs Total Current assets $ 335 $ 411 $ 746 Noncurrent assets 7,439 4,895 12,334 Current liabilities 217 310 527 Noncurrent liabilities $ 2,461 $ 788 $ 3,249

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related Party Agreements and Transactions	Related Party Agreements and Transactions MPLX engages in transactions with both MPC and certain of its equity method investments as part of its normal business; however, transactions with MPC make up the majority of MPLX’s related party transactions. Transactions with related parties are further described below. MPLX has various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with MPC. Under these agreements, MPLX provides transportation, gathering, terminal, fuels distribution, marketing, storage, management, operational and other services to MPC. MPC has committed to provide MPLX with minimum quarterly throughput volumes on crude oil and refined products, other fees for storage capacity, operating and management fees, as well as reimbursements for certain direct and indirect costs. MPC has also committed to provide a fixed fee for 100 percent of available capacity for boats, barges and third-party chartered equipment under the marine transportation service agreement. MPLX also has a keep-whole commodity agreement with MPC under which MPC pays us a processing fee for NGLs related to keep-whole agreements and delivers shrink gas to the producers on our behalf. We pay MPC a marketing fee in exchange for assuming the commodity risk. Additionally, MPLX has obligations to MPC for services provided to MPLX by MPC under omnibus and employee services-type agreements as well as other agreements. On June 30, 2022, MPLX and MPC entered into a Master Amendment to Transportation Services Agreements (“Master Amendment”). The Master Amendment extends the term of six transportation services agreements through 2032 and provides for automatic renewals of up to two additional five-year terms, subject to either party providing written notice at least six months prior to the end of the then-current term. Related Party Loan MPLX is party to a loan agreement with MPC Investment LLC (“MPC Investment”) (the “MPC Loan Agreement”). Under the terms of the agreement, MPC Investment extends loans to MPLX on a revolving basis as requested by MPLX and as agreed to by MPC Investment. The borrowing capacity of the MPC Loan Agreement is $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of all loans outstanding at any one time. The loan agreement is scheduled to expire, and borrowings under the loan agreement are scheduled to mature and become due and payable, on July 31, 2024, provided that MPC Investment may demand payment of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts (if any), at any time prior to maturity. Borrowings under the MPC Loan Agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.25 percent or such lower rate as would be applicable to such loans under the MPLX Credit Agreement as discussed in Note 11. Activity on the MPC Loan Agreement was as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions) 2022 2021 Borrowings $ 2,824 $ 4,435 Average interest rate of borrowings 1.458 % 1.354 % Repayments $ 4,274 $ 3,942 Outstanding balance at end of period $ — $ 493 Related Party Revenue Related party sales to MPC primarily consist of crude oil and refined products pipeline and trucking transportation services based on tariff or contracted rates; storage, terminal and fuels distribution services based on contracted rates; and marine transportation services. Related party sales to MPC also consist of revenue related to volume deficiency credits. MPLX also has operating agreements with MPC under which it receives a fee for operating MPC’s retained pipeline assets and a fixed annual fee for providing oversight and management services required to run the marine business. MPLX also receives management fee revenue for engineering, construction and administrative services for operating certain of its equity method investments. These agreements are classified as Other income - related parties on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Certain product sales to MPC net to zero within the consolidated financial statements as the transactions are recorded net due to the terms of the agreements under which such product was sold. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, these sales totaled $281 million and $574 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, these sales totaled $177 million and $345 million, respectively. Related Party Expenses MPC charges MPLX for executive management services and certain general and administrative services to MPLX under the terms of our omnibus agreements (“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, as well as compensation expenses. 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 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 lease agreements with MPC. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, General and administrative expenses incurred from MPC totaled $58 million and $113 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, General and administrative expenses incurred from MPC totaled $63 million and $120 million, respectively. 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, 2022, these charges totaled $19 million and $38 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, these charges totaled $15 million and $27 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 and deferred revenue on minimum volume commitments. If MPC fails to meet its minimum committed volumes, MPC will pay MPLX a deficiency payment based on the terms of the agreement. The deficiency amounts received under these agreements (excluding payments received under agreements classified as sales-type leases) are recorded as Current liabilities - related parties. In many cases, MPC may then apply the amount of any such deficiency payments as a credit for volumes in excess of its minimum volume commitment in future periods under the terms of the applicable agreements. MPLX recognizes related party revenues for the deficiency payments when credits are used for volumes 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. Deficiency payments under agreements that have been classified as sales-type leases are recorded as a reduction against the corresponding lease receivable. In addition, capital projects MPLX undertakes at the request of MPC are reimbursed in cash and recognized as revenue over the remaining term of the applicable agreements or in some cases, as a contribution from MPC.

Total unit repurchases were as follows for the respective periods: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions, except per unit data) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Number of common units repurchased 1 6 4 12 Cash paid for common units repurchased $ 35 $ 155 $ 135 $ 310 Average cost per unit $ 33.74 $ 27.40 $ 32.48 $ 26.02 As of June 30, 2022, we had $202 million remaining under the existing unit repurchase authorization. On August 2, 2022, MPLX announced the board of directors approved an incremental $1 billion unit repurchase authorization. The unit repurchase authorizations have no expiration date. We may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, which could include open market repurchases, negotiated block transactions, accelerated unit repurchases, tender offers or open market solicitations for units, some of which may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing of repurchases will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, and repurchases may be discontinued at any time. Series B Preferred Units MPLX has 600,000 outstanding units of 6.875 percent Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units representing limited partner interests of MPLX with a price to the public of $1,000 per unit (the “Series B preferred units”). The Series B preferred units are pari passu with the Series A preferred units with respect to distribution rights and rights upon liquidation. Series B preferred unitholders are entitled to receive a fixed distribution of $68.75 per unit, per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on the 15th day, or the first business day thereafter, of February and August of each year up to and including February 15, 2023. After February 15, 2023, the holders of Series B preferred units are entitled to receive cumulative, quarterly distributions payable in arrears on the 15th day of February, May, August and November of each year, or the first business day thereafter, based on a floating annual rate equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 4.652 percent, in each case assuming a distribution is declared by the Board of Directors. MPLX has the right to redeem some or all of the Series B preferred units, at any time, on or after February 15, 2023 at the Series B preferred unit redemption price of $1,000 per unit, plus any accumulated and unpaid distributions up to the redemption date. Cash distributions On July 26, 2022, MPLX declared a cash distribution for the second quarter of 2022, totaling $714 million, or $0.7050 per common unit. This distribution will be paid on August 12, 2022 to common unitholders of record on August 5, 2022. This rate will also be received by Series A preferred unitholders. Quarterly distributions for 2022 and 2021 are summarized below: (Per common unit) 2022 2021 March 31, $ 0.7050 $ 0.6875 June 30, 0.7050 0.6875 In accordance with the distribution rights discussed above, MPLX will make a cash distribution totaling $21 million to Series B unitholders on August 15, 2022. The allocation of total quarterly cash distributions to limited and preferred unitholders is as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Distributions, although earned, are not accrued until declared. 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.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block]	Segment Information MPLX’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer (“CEO”) of its general partner. The CEO reviews MPLX’s discrete financial information, makes operating decisions, assesses financial performance and allocates resources on a type of service basis. MPLX has two reportable segments: L&S and G&P. Each of these segments is organized and managed based upon the nature of the products and services it offers. • L&S – gathers, transports, stores and distributes crude oil, refined products, and other hydrocarbon-based products. Also includes the operation of refining logistics, fuels distribution and inland marine businesses, terminals, rail facilities, and storage caverns. • G&P – gathers, processes and transports natural gas; and transports, fractionates, stores and markets NGLs. Our CEO evaluates the performance of our segments using Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Amounts included in net income and excluded from Segment Adjusted EBITDA include: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) interest and other financial costs; (iii) impairment expense; (iv) income/(loss) from equity method investments; (v) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (vi) noncontrolling interests; and (vii) other adjustments as deemed necessary. These items are either: (i) believed to be non-recurring in nature; (ii) not believed to be allocable or controlled by the segment; or (iii) are not tied to the operational performance of the segment. Assets by segment are not a measure used to assess the performance of the Partnership by our CEO and thus are not reported in our disclosures. The tables below present information about revenues and other income, Segment Adjusted EBITDA, capital expenditures and investments in unconsolidated affiliates for our reportable segments: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (In millions) 2022 2021 2022 2021 L&S Service revenue $ 1,010 $ 992 $ 1,993 $ 1,945 Rental income 208 176 383 425 Product related revenue 7 4 11 8 Sales-type lease revenue 114 136 225 173 Income from equity method investments 59 35 111 71 Other income 22 16 34 31 Total segment revenues and other income (1) 1,420 1,359 2,757 2,653 Segment Adjusted EBITDA (2) 966 947 1,870 1,843 Capital expenditures 81 76 158 135 Investments in unconsolidated affiliates 10 13 78 22 G&P Service revenue 505 493 991 1,001 Rental income 92 91 173 183 Product related revenue 860 407 1,521 804 Income from equity method investments 52 31 99 65 Other income 11 14 9 28 Total segment revenues and other income (1) 1,520 1,036 2,793 2,081 Segment Adjusted EBITDA (2) 491 427 980 883 Capital expenditures 95 36 190 66 Investments in unconsolidated affiliates $ 36 $ 36 $ 78 $ 62 (1) Within the total segment revenues and other income amounts presented above, third party revenues for the L&S segment were $158 million and $293 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $138 million and $267 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Third party revenues for the G&P segment were $1,454 million and $2,666 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $988 million and $1,977 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

Long-lived assets used in operations are assessed for impairment whenever changes in facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable based on the expected undiscounted future cash flow of an asset group. For purposes of impairment evaluation, long-lived assets must be grouped at the lowest level for which independent cash flows can be identified, which is at least at the segment level and in some cases for similar assets in the same geographic region where cash flows can be separately identified. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of an asset group, fair value is calculated, and the carrying value is written down if greater than the calculated fair value. In the second quarter of 2021, we recognized impairment expense of $42 million within our G&P segment related to our continued emphasis on portfolio optimization with the divestiture of several non-core assets and the closure of other non-core assets.

Level 3 instruments relate to an embedded derivative liability for 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 $0.72 to $1.98 per gallon with a weighted average of $0.98 per gallon and (2) the probability of renewal of 100 percent for the five 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.

Fair Values – Reported MPLX’s primary financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, receivables, receivables from related parties, lease receivables from related parties, accounts payable, payables to related parties and 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 10). The fair value of MPLX’s debt is estimated based on recent market non-binding indicative quotes. The debt fair values are considered Level 3 measurements. The following table summarizes the fair value and carrying value of our third-party debt, excluding finance leases and unamortized debt issuance costs: June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 (In millions) Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Outstanding debt (1) $ 18,604 $ 19,881 $ 20,779 $ 18,664 (1) Amounts outstanding under the MPC Loan Agreement are not included in the table above, as the carrying value approximates fair value.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block]	Derivative Financial Instruments As of June 30, 2022, MPLX had no 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 2027. The customer has the unilateral option to extend the agreement for one five 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, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no derivative assets or liabilities that were offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The New MPLX Credit Agreement, among other things, provides for a $2 billion unsecured revolving credit facility that matures in July 2027. The New MPLX Credit Agreement provides for letter of credit issuing capacity under the facility of $150 million. Letter of credit issuing capacity is included in, not in addition to, the $2 billion borrowing capacity of the New MPLX Credit Agreement. The financial covenants of the New MPLX Credit Agreement are substantially the same as those contained in the previous credit agreement. Borrowings under the New MPLX Credit Agreement bear interest, at MPLX’s election, at either the Adjusted Term SOFR or the Alternate Base Rate, both as defined in the New MPLX Credit Agreement, plus an applicable margin. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, MPLX borrowed $900 million under the MPLX Credit Agreement, at an average interest rate of 1.454 percent, and repaid $1,200 million. At June 30, 2022, MPLX had no outstanding borrowings and less than $1 million in letters of credit outstanding under the MPLX Credit Agreement, resulting in total availability of approximately $3.5 billion. Fixed Rate Senior Notes MPLX’s senior notes, including those issued by consolidated subsidiaries, consist of various series of senior notes maturing between 2022 and 2058 with interest rates ranging from 1.750 percent to 5.500 percent. Interest on each series of notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on various dates depending on the series of the notes. On March 14, 2022, MPLX issued $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.950 percent senior notes due March 2052 (the “2052 Senior Notes”) in an underwritten public offering. The 2052 Senior Notes were offered at a price to the public of 98.982 percent with interest payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on September 14, 2022. The net proceeds were used to repay amounts outstanding under the intercompany loan agreement with MPC and the MPLX revolving credit facility.

Contract Balances Contract assets typically relate to deficiency payments related to minimum volume commitments and 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 included in Other current assets and Other noncurrent 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. The sales and related Receivables, net 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 tables below reflect the changes in ASC 606 contract balances of each respective line, for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021: (In millions) Balance at December 31, 2021 Additions/ (Deletions) Revenue Recognized (1) Balance at Contract assets $ 25 $ (14) $ — $ 11 Long-term contract assets 2 — — 2 Deferred revenue 56 26 (25) 57 Deferred revenue - related parties 60 54 (57) 57 Long-term deferred revenue 135 17 — 152 Long-term deferred revenue - related parties 31 (3) — 28 Long-term contract liabilities $ 5 $ — $ — $ 5 (In millions) Balance at December 31, 2020 Additions/ (Deletions) Revenue Recognized (1) Balance at Contract assets $ 40 $ (25) $ 1 $ 16 Long-term contract assets 2 — — 2 Deferred revenue 37 24 (17) 44 Deferred revenue - related parties 91 37 (50) 78 Long-term deferred revenue 119 9 — 128 Long-term deferred revenue - related parties 48 (8) — 40 Long-term contract liabilities $ 6 $ — $ — $ 6 (1) No significant revenue was recognized related to past performance obligations in the current periods. 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, 2022, unsatisfied performance obligations included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are $293 million and will be recognized as revenue as the obligations are satisfied, which is expected to occur over the next 22 years. A portion of this amount is not disclosed in the table below as it is deemed variable consideration due to volume variability. (In millions) 2022 $ 943 2023 1,727 2024 1,601 2025 1,530 2026 1,373 2027 and thereafter 1,865 Total revenue on remaining performance obligations (1)(2)(3) $ 9,039 (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 and sales-type leases 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.

Capital expenditures related to assets subject to sales-type lease arrangements were $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, these amounts are reflected as Additions to property, plant and equipment on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, third party lease assets are less than $1 million and are included within the Receivables, net and Other noncurrent assets captions within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the second quarter of 2021, reimbursements for projects and changes to minimum volume commitments at certain L&S locations were agreed to between MPLX and MPC. These reimbursements and minimum volume commitments relate to the storage, transportation and terminal services agreements between MPLX and MPC at these locations and required the embedded leases within these agreements to be reassessed under ASC 842. As a result of the reassessment, certain leases were reclassified from an operating lease to a sales-type lease. Accordingly, the underlying assets previously shown on the Consolidated Balance Sheets associated with the sales-type leases were derecognized and the net investment in the lease (i.e., the sum of the present value of the future lease payments and the unguaranteed residual value of the assets) was recorded as a lease receivable during the respective periods. See Note 4 for the location of lease receivables and unguaranteed residual assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The difference between the net book value of the underlying assets and the net investment in the lease has been recorded as a Contribution from MPC in the Consolidated Statements of Equity given the impacted storage and terminal services agreements are related to a common control transaction. During the second quarter of 2021, MPLX derecognized approximately $421 million of property, plant and equipment, recorded a lease receivable of approximately $519 million, recorded an unguaranteed residual asset of approximately $14 million with the difference recorded as a deemed Contribution from MPC of $112 million.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]	Commitments and ContingenciesMPLX 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 a liability, MPLX is unable to estimate a range of possible loss because the issues involved have not been fully developed through pleadings, discovery or court proceedings. 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, 2022 and December 31, 2021, accrued liabilities for remediation totaled $27 million and $23 million, respectively. It is not presently possible to estimate the ultimate amount of all remediation costs that might be incurred or the penalties, if any, that may be imposed. MPLX is involved in environmental enforcement matters arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome and impact to MPLX 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. 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. We hold a 9.19 percent indirect interest in a joint venture (“Dakota Access”) that owns and operates the Dakota Access Pipeline and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline projects, collectively referred to as the Bakken Pipeline system or DAPL. In 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (the “D.D.C.”) ordered the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (“Army Corps”), which granted permits and an easement for the Bakken Pipeline system, to prepare an environmental impact statement (“EIS”) relating to an easement under Lake Oahe in North Dakota. The D.D.C. later vacated the easement. Completion of the EIS may now be delayed as the Army Corps engages with the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe on the tribe’s reasons for withdrawing as a cooperating agency with respect to preparation of the EIS. In May 2021, the D.D.C. denied a renewed request for an injunction to shut down the pipeline while the EIS is being prepared. In June 2021, the D.D.C. issued an order dismissing without prejudice the tribes’ claims against the Dakota Access Pipeline. The litigation could be reopened or new litigation challenging the EIS, once completed, could be filed. The pipeline remains operational. We have entered into a Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement whereby MPLX LP, along with the other joint venture owners in the Bakken Pipeline system, has 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 the Bakken Pipeline system. If the pipeline were temporarily shut down, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of funds required to pay interest accruing on the notes and any portion of the principal that matures while the pipeline is shutdown. MPLX also expects to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of any costs to remediate any deficiencies to reinstate the permit and/or return the pipeline into operation. If the vacatur of the easement permit results in a permanent shutdown of the pipeline, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of the cost to redeem the bonds (including the one percent redemption premium required pursuant to the indenture governing the notes) and any accrued and unpaid interest. As of June 30, 2022, our maximum potential undiscounted payments under the Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement were approximately $170 million. Other Legal Proceedings In July 2020, Tesoro High Plains Pipeline Company, LLC (“THPP”), a subsidiary of MPLX, received a Notification of Trespass Determination from the Bureau of Indian Affairs (“BIA”) relating to a portion of the Tesoro High Plains Pipeline that crosses the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota. The notification demanded the immediate cessation of pipeline operations and assessed trespass damages of approximately $187 million. On appeal, the Assistant Secretary - Indian Affairs issued an order vacating the BIA’s trespass order and remanded to the Regional Director for the BIA Great Plains Region to issue a new decision based on specific criteria. On December 15, 2020, the Regional Director of the BIA issued a new trespass notice to THPP, finding that THPP was in trespass and assessing trespass damages of approximately $4 million (including interest), which has been paid. The order also required that THPP immediately cease and desist use of the portion of the pipeline that crosses the property at issue. THPP has complied with the Regional Director’s December 15, 2020 notice. In March 2021, THPP received a copy of an order purporting to vacate all orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass issued by the BIA between July 2, 2020 and January 14, 2021. The order directs the Regional Director of the BIA to reconsider the issue of THPP’s alleged trespass and issue a new order, if necessary, after all interested parties have had an opportunity to be heard. Subsequently, landowners voluntarily dismissed the suit filed in the District of North Dakota. On April 23, 2021, THPP filed a lawsuit in the District of North Dakota against the United States of America, the U.S. Department of the Interior and the BIA (together, the “U.S. Government Parties”) challenging the March order purporting to vacate all previous orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass. On February 8, 2022, the U.S. Government Parties filed their answer to THPP’s suit, asserting counterclaims for trespass and ejectment. The U.S. Government Parties claim THPP is in continued trespass with respect to the pipeline and seek disgorgement of pipeline profits from June 1, 2013 to present, removal of the pipeline and remediation. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these counterclaims. We continue to work towards a settlement of this matter with holders of the property rights at issue. 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, management believes the resolution of these other lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Guarantor Obligations, Origin and Purpose			GuaranteesOver 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.We hold a 9.19 percent indirect interest in a joint venture (“Dakota Access”) that owns and operates the Dakota Access Pipeline and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline projects, collectively referred to as the Bakken Pipeline system or DAPL. In 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (the “D.D.C.”) ordered the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (“Army Corps”), which granted permits and an easement for the Bakken Pipeline system, to prepare an environmental impact statement (“EIS”) relating to an easement under Lake Oahe in North Dakota. The D.D.C. later vacated the easement. Completion of the EIS may now be delayed as the Army Corps engages with the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe on the tribe’s reasons for withdrawing as a cooperating agency with respect to preparation of the EIS.In May 2021, the D.D.C. denied a renewed request for an injunction to shut down the pipeline while the EIS is being prepared. In June 2021, the D.D.C. issued an order dismissing without prejudice the tribes’ claims against the Dakota Access Pipeline. The litigation could be reopened or new litigation challenging the EIS, once completed, could be filed. The pipeline remains operational.We have entered into a Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement whereby MPLX LP, along with the other joint venture owners in the Bakken Pipeline system, has 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 the Bakken Pipeline system. If the pipeline were temporarily shut down, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of funds required to pay interest accruing on the notes and any portion of the principal that matures while the pipeline is shutdown. MPLX also expects to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of any costs to remediate any deficiencies to reinstate the permit and/or return the pipeline into operation. If the vacatur of the easement permit results in a permanent shutdown of the pipeline, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of the cost to redeem the bonds (including the one percent redemption premium required pursuant to the indenture governing the notes) and any accrued and unpaid interest. As of June 30, 2022, our maximum potential undiscounted payments under the Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement were approximately $170 million.
