Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special Alabama counsel to Genesis Pipeline Alabama, LLC, an Alabama limited liability company (the “Company”), in connection with the registration, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), of the proposed offer by Genesis Energy, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and Genesis Energy Finance Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Genesis Finance”), relating to the offering and sale from time to time, as set forth in the Registration Statement, the form of prospectus contained therein (the “Prospectus”), and one or more supplements to the Prospectus (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”), of an indeterminate aggregate amount of securities (the “Securities”) consisting of (a) common units (the “Common Units”) representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership, (b) preferred securities (the “Preferred Securities”) representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership, (c) subordinated securities (the “Subordinated Securities” and, together with the Common Units and the Preferred Securities, the “LP Equity Securities”) representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership, (d) the Partnership’s options to purchase LP Equity Securities, (e) the Partnership’s warrants to purchase LP Equity Securities or Debt Securities (defined below) (the “Warrants”), (f) the Partnership’s rights to purchase LP Equity Securities, (g) the Partnership’s senior debt securities, as to which the Partnership’s subsidiary, Genesis Finance may be co-issuer, in one or more series (the “Senior Debt Securities”), and the Partnership’s subordinated debt securities, as to which Genesis Finance may be co-issuer, in one or more series (the “Subordinated Debt Securities” and, together with the Senior Debt Securities, the “Partnership Debt Securities”) and (h) guarantees (the “Guarantees”) of Partnership Debt Securities by the subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) named in the Registration Statement (the Partnership Debt Securities, together with (if such Partnership Debt Securities have been guaranteed by Subsidiary Guarantors) the related Guarantees of such Subsidiary Guarantors, being referred to herein as the “Debt Securities”) or any combination of the foregoing, each on terms to be determined at the time of each offering. For purposes of this opinion, the term “Other Subsidiary Guarantors” means the Subsidiary Guarantors other than the Company. This opinion is being furnished at the request of the Partnership and in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act.

We have examined originals or certified copies of (i) the Indenture with respect to the Senior Debt Securities (and any related Guarantees), dated as of May 21, 2015, among the Partnership, Genesis Finance, the Subsidiary Guarantors named therein and Regions Bank, as successor trustee (the “Base Indenture”), filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 21, 2015, the form and terms (including whether Genesis Finance is co-issuer thereof and any Guarantees) of any series of
