Description of Business [Abstract]
Description of the Business	Note 1—Description of the Business Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise indicates, all references to “Phillips 66 Partners,” “the Partnership,” “us,” “our,” “we,” or similar expressions refer to Phillips 66 Partners LP, including its consolidated subsidiaries. References to Phillips 66 may refer to Phillips 66 and/or its subsidiaries, depending on the context. References to our “General Partner” refer to Phillips 66 Partners GP LLC, and references to “Phillips 66 PDI” refer to Phillips 66 Project Development Inc., the Phillips 66 subsidiary that holds a limited partner interest in us and wholly owns our General Partner. We are a growth-oriented master limited partnership formed to own, operate, develop and acquire primarily fee-based midstream assets. Our operations consist of crude oil, refined petroleum products and natural gas liquids (NGL) transportation, terminaling, processing and storage assets. We conduct our operations through both wholly owned and joint venture operations. The majority of our wholly owned assets are associated with, and are integral to the operation of, nine of Phillips 66’s owned or joint venture refineries. We primarily generate revenue by providing fee-based transportation, terminaling, processing, storage and fractionation services to Phillips 66 and other customers. Our equity affiliates primarily generate revenue from transporting and terminaling crude oil, refined petroleum products and NGL. Since we do not own any of the crude oil, refined petroleum products and NGL we handle and do not engage in the trading of crude oil, refined petroleum products and NGL, we have limited direct exposure to risks associated with fluctuating commodity prices, although these risks indirectly influence our activities and results of operations over the long term. On August 1, 2019 , we closed on the transactions contemplated by the Partnership Interests Restructuring Agreement, dated July 24, 2019 , entered into with our General Partner. Pursuant to this agreement, all the outstanding incentive distribution rights (IDRs) held by our General Partner were eliminated and its approximately 2% general partner interest in us was converted into a non-economic general partner interest; both in exchange for an aggregate 101 million common units issued to Phillips 66 PDI. See Note 7—Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit for more information on how these transactions impact our earnings per unit calculations, and Note 10—Equity

Interim Financial Information [Abstract]
Interim Financial Information	Note 2— Interim Financial Information The unaudited interim financial information presented in the financial statements included in this report is prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and includes all known accruals and adjustments necessary, in the opinion of management, for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Unless otherwise specified, all such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements included in this report. Therefore, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain prior period financial information has been recast to reflect the current year’s presentation.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Changes in Accounting Principles	Note 3—Changes in Accounting Principles Effective January 1, 2019, we early adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The amendment requires entities to consider a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses, which may result in earlier recognition of losses. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” using the modified retrospective transition method. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for all operating leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will continue to be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the consolidated income statement. We elected the package of practical expedients that allowed us to carry forward the determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease and lease classification, as well as our accounting for initial direct costs for existing contracts. We recorded a noncash cumulative effect adjustment to our opening consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019, to record an aggregate operating lease ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability of $45 million . See Note 5—Lease Assets and Liabilities , for the new lease disclosures required by this ASU for lessees. For arrangements where we are the lessor, effective for periods after January 1, 2019, we elected to account for lease and service elements of contracts classified as leases on a combined basis under the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02, except for leases of processing-type assets, which contain non-ratable fees related to turnaround activity. For these types of leases, we continued to separate the lease and service elements based on relative standalone prices and applied the new lease standard to the lease element and the revenue standard to the service element. We recorded a noncash cumulative effect adjustment of $1 million to decrease our opening equity balance as of January 1, 2019. See Note 4—Operating Revenues

Operating Revenues

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Operating Revenues	Note 4—Operating Revenues Operating revenues are primarily generated from long-term pipeline transportation, terminaling, storage, processing and fractionation lease and service agreements, mainly with Phillips 66. These agreements typically include escalation clauses to adjust transportation tariffs and terminaling and storage fees to reflect changes in price indices. In addition, most of these agreements contain renewal options, which typically require the mutual consent of both our customers and us. Total operating revenues disaggregated by asset type were as follows: Millions of Dollars Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2019 2018 2019 2018 Pipelines $ 121 123 347 336 Terminals 41 37 120 114 Storage, processing and other revenues 108 105 368 325 Total operating revenues $ 270 265 835 775 The majority of our agreements with Phillips 66 are considered operating leases under GAAP. For reporting periods prior to our adoption of the new lease accounting standard, ASU No. 2016-02, as of January 1, 2019, the lease and service elements included in these contracts were separated with the lease element recognized in accordance with the existing lease accounting standard and the service element recognized in accordance with the revenue accounting standard. Effective for periods after January 1, 2019, we elected to account for lease and service elements of contracts classified as leases on a combined basis under the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02, except for leases of processing-type assets, which contain non-ratable fees related to turnaround activity. For these types of leases, we continued to separate the lease and service elements based on relative standalone prices and applied the new lease standard to the lease element and the revenue standard to the service element. As a result of our change in accounting policy, our lease and service revenues, lease and service accounts receivable and lease and service deferred revenues reported for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , are not prepared on the same basis as the amounts reported for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 . Total operating revenues disaggregated by lease and service revenues were as follows: Millions of Dollars Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2019 2018 2019 2018 Lease revenues $ 217 159 688 446 Service revenues 53 106 147 329 Total operating revenues $ 270 265 835 775 Accounts Receivable We bill our customers, mainly Phillips 66, under our lease and service contracts generally on a monthly basis. Total accounts receivable by revenue type was as follows: Millions of Dollars September 30 December 31 Lease receivables $ 81 53 Service receivables 20 41 Other receivables — 1 Total accounts receivable $ 101 95 Deferred Revenues Our deferred revenues represent payments received from our customers, mainly Phillips 66, in advance of the period in which lease and service contract performance obligations have been fulfilled. The majority of our deferred revenues relate to a tolling agreement and a storage agreement that are classified as leases. The remainder of our deferred revenues relate to lease and service agreements that contain minimum volume commitments with recovery provisions. Our deferred revenues are recorded in the “Deferred revenues” and “Other liabilities” lines on our consolidated balance sheet. Total deferred revenues under our lease and service agreements were as follows: Millions of Dollars September 30 December 31 Deferred lease revenues $ 43 73 Deferred service revenues 1 6 Total deferred revenues $ 44 79 Future Minimum Lease Payments from Customers At September 30, 2019 , future minimum payments to be received under our lease agreements with customers were estimated to be: Millions of Dollars Remainder of 2019 $ 172 2020 682 2021 679 2022 667 2023 624 Remaining years 1,847 Total future minimum lease payments from customers $ 4,671 Remaining Service Performance Obligations We typically have long-term service contracts with our customers, of which the original durations range from 5 to 15 years. The weighted-average remaining duration of these contracts is 11 years. These contracts include both fixed and variable transaction price components. At September 30, 2019 , future service revenues expected to be recognized for the fixed component of the transaction price of our remaining performance obligations from service contracts with our customers that have an original expected duration of greater than one year were: Millions of Dollars Remainder of 2019 $ 36 2020 139 2021 131 2022 130 2023 130 Remaining years 754 Total future service revenues $ 1,320

Leases [Abstract]
Lease Assets and Liabilities	Note 5—Lease Assets and Liabilities We have agreements with Phillips 66 to lease land underlying or associated with certain of our assets that are classified as operating leases. Due to the economic infeasibility of canceling these leases, we consider them non-cancellable. Certain leases include escalation clauses for adjusting rental payments to reflect changes in price indices. There are no significant restrictions imposed on us in our lease agreements with regards to distribution payments, asset dispositions or borrowing ability. Effective with our implementation of ASU No. 2016-02, we elected to discount lease obligations using our incremental borrowing rate. For all leases, we elected the practical expedient to not separate service and lease costs. Our right-of-way agreements in effect prior to January 1, 2019, were not accounted for as leases as they were not initially determined to be leases at their commencement dates. However, modifications to these agreements or new agreements will be assessed and accounted for accordingly under ASU No. 2016-02. For short-term leases, which are leases that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that is reasonably certain to be exercised, we elected to not recognize the ROU asset and corresponding lease liability on our consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease ROU assets are recorded in the “Other assets” line and lease liabilities are recorded in the “Other current liabilities” and “Other liabilities” lines on our consolidated balance sheet. At September 30, 2019 , the total operating lease ROU asset was $44 million . Future minimum lease payments and recorded short- and long-term lease liabilities at September 30, 2019 , for operating leases were: Millions of Dollars Remainder of 2019 $ 1 2020 3 2021 3 2022 3 2023 3 Remaining years 93 Future minimum lease payments 106 Amount representing interest or discounts (62 ) Total lease liabilities 44 Short-term lease liabilities (1 ) Long-term lease liabilities $ 43 Operating lease costs and operating cash outflows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , were not material. The weighted-average remaining lease term for our operating leases as of September 30, 2019 , was 36 years. The weighted-average discount rate for our operating leases as of September 30, 2019 , was 5.9%

There are no significant restrictions imposed on us in our lease agreements with regards to distribution payments, asset dispositions or borrowing ability. Effective with our implementation of ASU No. 2016-02, we elected to discount lease obligations using our incremental borrowing rate. For all leases, we elected the practical expedient to not separate service and lease costs. Our right-of-way agreements in effect prior to January 1, 2019, were not accounted for as leases as they were not initially determined to be leases at their commencement dates. However, modifications to these agreements or new agreements will be assessed and accounted for accordingly under ASU No. 2016-02. For short-term leases, which are leases that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that is reasonably certain to be exercised, we elected to not recognize the ROU asset and corresponding lease liability on our consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease ROU assets are recorded in the “Other assets” line and lease liabilities are recorded in the “Other current liabilities” and “Other liabilities” lines on our consolidated balance sheet. At September 30, 2019 , the total operating lease ROU asset was $44 million . Future minimum lease payments and recorded short- and long-term lease liabilities at September 30, 2019 , for operating leases were: Millions of Dollars Remainder of 2019 $ 1 2020 3 2021 3 2022 3 2023 3 Remaining years 93 Future minimum lease payments 106 Amount representing interest or discounts (62 ) Total lease liabilities 44 Short-term lease liabilities (1 ) Long-term lease liabilities $ 43 Operating lease costs and operating cash outflows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , were not material. The weighted-average remaining lease term for our operating leases as of September 30, 2019 , was 36 years. The weighted-average discount rate for our operating leases as of September 30, 2019 , was 5.9%

Gray Oak is developing and constructing the Gray Oak Pipeline which, upon completion, will provide crude oil transportation from the Permian and Eagle Ford to destinations in Corpus Christi, Texas, and the Sweeny, Texas, area, including the Phillips 66 Sweeny Refinery. The pipeline system is anticipated to begin initial service in the fourth quarter of 2019. We accounted for the acquisition of Holdings LLC as an acquisition of assets under common control accounting. Also in April 2018, a co-venturer acquired a 25% interest in Gray Oak, along with sufficient voting rights over key governance provisions such that we no longer could assert control over Gray Oak. As a result, we (through our consolidated subsidiary Holdings LLC) began using the equity method of accounting for our investment in Gray Oak at that time. In December 2018, a third party exercised its option to acquire a 35% interest in Holdings LLC. Because Holdings LLC’s sole asset was its 75% ownership interest in Gray Oak, which is considered a financial asset, and because certain restrictions were placed on the third party’s ability to transfer or sell its interest in Holdings LLC during the construction of the Gray Oak Pipeline, the legal sale of the 35% interest did not qualify as a sale under GAAP. Rather, the third party’s cash contributions to Holdings LLC in 2019 to fund its share of previously incurred and future construction costs plus a premium to us are reflected as a long-term obligation in the “Obligation from equity interest transfer” line on our consolidated balance sheet and financing cash inflows in the “Proceeds from equity interest transfer” line on our consolidated statement of cash flows. After construction of the Gray Oak Pipeline is fully completed, these restrictions expire, and the sale will be recognized under GAAP. We will continue to control and consolidate Holdings LLC after sale recognition, and therefore the third party’s 35% interest will be recharacterized from a long-term obligation to a noncontrolling interest on our consolidated balance sheet at that time. Also at that time, the premium paid will be recharacterized from a long-term obligation to a gain in our consolidated statement of income. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 , the third party contributed an aggregate of $341 million into Holdings LLC, which Holdings LLC used to fund its portion of Gray Oak’s cash calls. In February 2019, Holdings LLC transferred a 10% interest in Gray Oak to a third party that exercised a purchase option, for proceeds of $81 million . This transfer was accounted for as a sale and resulted in a decrease in Holdings LLC’s ownership interest in Gray Oak from 75% to 65% and the recognition of an immaterial gain. The proceeds received from this sale are reflected as an investing cash inflow in the “Proceeds from sale of equity interest” line on our consolidated statement of cash flows. At September 30, 2019 , our effective ownership interest in the Gray Oak Pipeline was 42.25% . In June 2019 , Gray Oak entered into a third-party term loan facility with an initial borrowing capacity of $1,230 million , which was increased in July 2019 to $1,317 million . Borrowings under the facility are due on June 3, 2022 . We and our co-venturers provided a guarantee through an equity contribution agreement requiring proportionate equity contributions to Gray Oak up to the total outstanding loan amount. Under the agreement, our maximum potential amount of future obligations is $556 million , plus any accrued interest and associated fees, which would be required if the term loan facility is fully utilized and Gray Oak defaults on its obligations. At September 30, 2019 , Gray Oak had borrowings of $904 million outstanding, and our 42.25% proportionate exposure was $382 million . The net proceeds from the term loan were used by Gray Oak for construction of the Gray Oak Pipeline and repayment of amounts borrowed under a related party loan agreement that we and our co-venturers executed in March 2019 and terminated upon the repayment by Gray Oak in June. Our total related party loan to and repayment received from Gray Oak was $95 million . Gray Oak is considered a variable interest entity because it does not have sufficient equity at risk to fully fund the construction of all assets required for principal operations. We have determined we are not the primary beneficiary because we and our co-venturers jointly direct the activities of Gray Oak that most significantly impact economic performance. At September 30, 2019 , our maximum exposure to loss was $1,130 million , which represented our guarantee of the third-party term loan facility of $382 million and the aggregate book value of our equity method investment in Gray Oak of $748 million . Bakken Pipeline In March 2019, a wholly owned subsidiary of Dakota Access, LLC (Dakota Access) closed on an offering of $2,500 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes. The net proceeds from the issuance of these notes were used to repay amounts outstanding under existing credit facilities of Dakota Access and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Company, LLC (ETCO). Dakota Access and ETCO have guaranteed repayment of the notes. In addition, we and our co-venturers provided a Contingent Equity Contribution Undertaking (CECU) in conjunction with the notes offering. Under the CECU, if Dakota Access receives an unfavorable court ruling related to certain disputed construction permits and Dakota Access determines that an equity contribution trigger event has occurred, the venturers may be severally required to make proportionate equity contributions to Dakota Access and ETCO up to an aggregate maximum of approximately $2,525 million . Our share of the maximum potential equity contributions under the CECU is approximately $631 million .

Partners' Capital Notes [Abstract]
Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit	Note 7—Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit Net income per limited partner unit applicable to common units is computed by dividing the limited partners’ interest in net income by the weighted-average number of common units outstanding for the period. Prior to August 1, 2019 , we had more than one class of participating securities and used the two-class method to calculate net income per unit applicable to the limited partners. The classes of participating securities prior to August 1, 2019 , included common units, general partner units and IDRs. Effective August 1, 2019 , common units are the only class of participating security. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , our preferred units are potentially dilutive securities and were dilutive to net income per limited partner unit. See Note 10—Equity , for a discussion of the elimination of our General Partner’s IDRs and 2% economic interest effective August 1, 2019 . Net income earned by the Partnership is allocated between the classes of participating securities in accordance with our partnership agreement, after giving effect to priority income allocations to the holders of the preferred units. First, earnings are allocated based on actual cash distributions declared to our unitholders, including those attributable to the General Partner’s IDRs, if applicable. To the extent net income exceeds or is less than cash distributions, this difference is allocated based on the unitholders’ respective ownership percentages, after consideration of any priority allocations of earnings. For the diluted net income per limited partner unit calculation, the preferred units are assumed to be converted at the beginning of the period into common limited partner units on a one-for-one basis, and the distribution formula for available cash in our partnership agreement is recalculated, using the original available cash amount increased only for the preferred distributions which would not have been paid after conversion.

Equity	Note 10—Equity ATM Programs Our initial $250 million continuous offering of common units, or at-the-market (ATM) program, was completed in June 2018. At that time, we commenced issuing common units under our second $250 million ATM program. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , on a settlement date basis, we issued an aggregate of 1,635,669 and 2,470,037 common units under our ATM programs, respectively, generating net proceeds of $91 million and $133 million , respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 , we issued an aggregate of 898,313 and 2,239,247 common units under our ATM programs, respectively, generating net proceeds of $47 million and $114 million , respectively. Since inception in June 2016 through September 30, 2019 , we issued an aggregate of 8,721,001 common units under our ATM programs, generating net proceeds of $452 million , after broker commissions of $5 million . The net proceeds from sales under the ATM programs are used for general partnership purposes, which may include debt repayment, acquisitions, capital expenditures and additions to working capital. Restructuring Transaction On August 1, 2019 , we closed on the transactions contemplated by the Partnership Interests Restructuring Agreement, dated July 24, 2019 , entered into with our General Partner. Pursuant to this agreement, all of the outstanding IDRs held by our General Partner were eliminated and its approximately 2% general partner interest in us was converted into a non-economic general partner interest; both in exchange for an aggregate of 101 million common units issued to Phillips 66 PDI. Because these transactions were between entities under common control, the common units issued to Phillips 66 PDI were assigned no value; rather, our General Partner’s historical negative equity balance of $1.4 billion as of August 1, 2019

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies	Note 11—Contingencies From time to time, lawsuits involving a variety of claims that arise in the ordinary course of business are filed against us. We also may be required to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment of the placement, storage, disposal or release of certain chemical, mineral and petroleum substances at various sites. We regularly assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. In the case of all known contingencies (other than those related to income taxes), we accrue a liability when the loss is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. If a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, then the minimum of the range is accrued. We do not reduce these liabilities for potential insurance or third-party recoveries. If applicable, we accrue receivables for probable insurance or other third-party recoveries. In the case of income-tax-related contingencies, we use a cumulative probability-weighted loss accrual in cases where sustaining a tax position is less than certain. Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures. Estimates particularly sensitive to future changes include any contingent liabilities recorded for environmental remediation, tax and legal matters. Estimated future environmental remediation costs are subject to change due to such factors as the uncertain magnitude of cleanup costs, the unknown time and extent of such remedial actions that may be required, and the determination of our liability in proportion to that of other potentially responsible parties. Estimated future costs related to tax and legal matters are subject to change as events evolve and as additional information becomes available during the administrative and litigation processes. Environmental We are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. We record accruals for contingent environmental liabilities based on management’s best estimates, using all information that is available at the time. We measure estimates and base liabilities on currently available facts, existing technology, and presently enacted laws and regulations, taking into account stakeholder and business considerations. When measuring environmental liabilities, we also consider our prior experience in remediation of contaminated sites, other companies’ cleanup experience, and data released by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or other organizations. We consider unasserted claims in our determination of environmental liabilities, and we accrue them in the period they are both probable and reasonably estimable. In the future, we may be involved in additional environmental assessments, cleanups and proceedings. Legal Proceedings Under our amended omnibus agreement, Phillips 66 provides certain services for our benefit, including legal support services, and we pay an operational and administrative support fee for these services. Phillips 66’s legal organization applies its knowledge, experience and professional judgment to the specific characteristics of our cases, employing a litigation management process to manage and monitor the legal proceedings against us. The process facilitates the early evaluation and quantification of potential exposures in individual cases and enables tracking of those cases that have been scheduled for trial and/or mediation. Based on professional judgment and experience in using these litigation management tools and available information about current developments in all our cases, Phillips 66’s legal organization regularly assesses the adequacy of current accruals and determines if adjustment of existing accruals, or establishment of new accruals, is required. As of September 30, 2019 , and December 31, 2018 , we did not have any material accrued contingent liabilities associated with litigation matters. Indemnification and Excluded Liabilities Under our amended omnibus agreement and pursuant to the terms of various agreements under which we acquired assets from Phillips 66, Phillips 66 will indemnify us, or assume responsibility, for certain environmental liabilities, tax liabilities, litigation and any other liabilities attributable to the ownership or operation of the assets contributed to us and that arose prior to the effective date of each acquisition. These indemnifications and exclusions from liability have, in some cases, time limits and deductibles. When Phillips 66 performs under any of these indemnifications or exclusions from liability, we recognize noncash expenses and associated noncash capital contributions from our General Partner, as these are considered liabilities paid for by a principal unitholder.

Related Party Transactions	Note 13—Related Party Transactions Commercial Agreements We have entered into long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with Phillips 66 to provide transportation, terminaling, storage, stevedoring, fractionation, processing, and rail terminal services. Under these agreements, Phillips 66 commits to provide us with minimum transportation, throughput or storage volumes, or minimum monthly service fees. If Phillips 66 does not meet its minimum volume commitments, Phillips 66 pays us a deficiency payment based on the calculation described in the agreement. Amended and Restated Operational Services Agreement Under our amended and restated operational services agreement, we reimburse Phillips 66 for certain operational services in support of our pipelines, terminaling, processing, and storage facilities. These services include routine and emergency maintenance and repair services, routine operational activities, routine administrative services, construction and related services and such other services as we and Phillips 66 may mutually agree upon from time to time. Amended Omnibus Agreement The amended omnibus agreement addresses our payment of an operating and administrative support fee and our obligation to reimburse Phillips 66 for all other direct or allocated costs and expenses incurred by Phillips 66 in providing general and administrative services. Additionally, the omnibus agreement addresses Phillips 66’s indemnification to us and our indemnification to Phillips 66 for certain environmental and other liabilities. Further, it addresses the granting of a license from Phillips 66 to us with respect to the use of certain Phillips 66 trademarks. Tax Sharing Agreement Under our tax sharing agreement, we reimburse Phillips 66 for our share of state and local income and other taxes incurred by Phillips 66 due to our results of operations being included in a combined or consolidated tax return filed by Phillips 66. Any reimbursement is limited to the tax that we (and our subsidiaries) would have paid had we not been included in a combined group with Phillips 66. Phillips 66 may use its tax attributes to cause its combined or consolidated group to owe no tax; however, we would nevertheless reimburse Phillips 66 for the tax we would have owed, even though Phillips 66 had no cash expense for that period.

The operational and administrative support fee is for the provision of certain services, including: logistical services; asset oversight, such as operational management and supervision; corporate engineering services, including asset integrity and regulatory services; business development services; executive services; financial and administrative services (including treasury and accounting); information technology; legal services; corporate health, safety and environmental services; facility services; human resources services; procurement services; investor relations; tax matters; and public company reporting services. We also reimburse Phillips 66 for all other direct or allocated costs incurred on behalf of us, pursuant to the terms of our amended omnibus agreement. The classification of these charges between operating and maintenance expenses and general and administrative expenses is based on the functional nature of the services performed for our operations. Under our amended and restated operational services agreement, we reimburse Phillips 66 for the provision of certain operational services in support of our operating assets. Additionally, we pay Phillips 66 for insurance services provided to us, and recoveries under these policies are recorded as an offset to our expenses. Operating and maintenance expenses also include volumetric gains and losses associated with volumes transported by Phillips 66.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Changes in Accounting Principles	Effective January 1, 2019, we early adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The amendment requires entities to consider a broader range of information to estimate expected credit losses, which may result in earlier recognition of losses. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” using the modified retrospective transition method. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for all operating leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will continue to be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the consolidated income statement. We elected the package of practical expedients that allowed us to carry forward the determination of whether an arrangement contains a lease and lease classification, as well as our accounting for initial direct costs for existing contracts. We recorded a noncash cumulative effect adjustment to our opening consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019, to record an aggregate operating lease ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability of $45 million . See Note 5—Lease Assets and Liabilities , for the new lease disclosures required by this ASU for lessees. For arrangements where we are the lessor, effective for periods after January 1, 2019, we elected to account for lease and service elements of contracts classified as leases on a combined basis under the provisions of ASU No. 2016-02, except for leases of processing-type assets, which contain non-ratable fees related to turnaround activity. For these types of leases, we continued to separate the lease and service elements based on relative standalone prices and applied the new lease standard to the lease element and the revenue standard to the service element. We recorded a noncash cumulative effect adjustment of $1 million to decrease our opening equity balance as of January 1, 2019. See Note 4—Operating Revenues

Net Income Per Limited Partne_2

Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2019
Partners' Capital Notes [Abstract]
Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit	Net income per limited partner unit applicable to common units is computed by dividing the limited partners’ interest in net income by the weighted-average number of common units outstanding for the period. Prior to August 1, 2019 , we had more than one class of participating securities and used the two-class method to calculate net income per unit applicable to the limited partners. The classes of participating securities prior to August 1, 2019 , included common units, general partner units and IDRs. Effective August 1, 2019 , common units are the only class of participating security. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018
