General | 1. General Organization Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. is a leading pipeline transportation and energy storage company in North America, and unless the context requires otherwise, references to we, us, our, KMP or the Partnership are intended to mean Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries.We own an interest in or operate approximately 28,000 miles of pipelines and 180 terminals, and conduct our business through five reportable business segments (described further in Note 8).Our pipelines transport natural gas, refined petroleum products, crude oil, carbon dioxide and other products, and our terminals store petroleum products and chemicals and handle bulk materials like coal and petroleum coke.We are also the leading provider of carbon dioxide for enhanced oil recovery projects in North America.Our general partner is owned by Kinder Morgan, Inc., discussed following. Kinder Morgan, Inc., Kinder Morgan G.P., Inc. and Kinder Morgan Management, LLC Kinder Morgan, Inc., referred to as KMI in this report, is a Kansas corporation privately owned by investors led by RichardD. Kinder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of both Kinder Morgan G.P., Inc. (our general partner) and Kinder Morgan Management, LLC (our general partners delegate).KMI has been privately owned since its merger with Kinder Morgan Holdco LLC on May 30, 2007.This merger is referred to in this report as the going-private transaction and is described more fully in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, referred to in this report as our 2009 Form 10-K. KMI indirectly owns all the common stock of our general partner.In July 2007, our general partner issued and sold 100,000 shares of Series A fixed-to-floating rate term cumulative preferred stock due 2057.The consent of holders of a majority of these preferred shares is required with respect to a commencement of or a filing of a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding with respect to us or two of our subsidiaries, SFPP, L.P. and Calnev Pipe Line LLC. Kinder Morgan Management, LLC, referred to as KMR in this report, is a Delaware limited liability company. Our general partner owns all of KMRs voting securities and, pursuant to a delegation of control agreement, has delegated to KMR, to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law and our partnership agreement, all of its power and authority to manage and control our business and affairs, except that KMR cannot take certain specified actions without the approval of our general partner.More information on these entities and the delegation of control agreement is contained in our 2009 Form 10-K. Basis of Presentation We have prepared our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements under the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.These rules and regulations conform to the accounting principles contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Boards Accounting Standards Codification, the single source of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and referred to in this repo |

Acquisitions and Joint Ventures | 2. Acquisitions, Joint Venture Contributions, and Divestitures Acquisitions USD Terminal Acquisition On January 15, 2010, we acquired three ethanol handling train terminals from US Development Group LLC for an aggregate consideration of $200.8 million, consisting of $115.7 million in cash, $81.7 million in common units, and$3.4 million in assumed liabilities.The three train terminals are located in Linden, New Jersey; Baltimore, Maryland; and Dallas, Texas.As part of the transaction, we announced the formation of a venture with US Development Group LLC to optimize and coordinate customer access to the three acquired terminals, other ethanol terminal assets we already own and operate, and other terminal projects currently under development by both parties.The acquisition complemented and expanded the ethanol and rail terminal operations we previously owned, and all of the acquired assets are included in our Terminals business segment. Based on our measurement of fair market values for all of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date, we assigned $94.6 million of our combined purchase price to Other intangibles, net (representing customer relationships); $43.1 million to Property, Plant and Equipment, net and a combined $5.1 million to Other current assets and Deferred charges and other assets.The remaining $58.0 million of our purchase price represented the future economic benefits expected to be derived from the acquisition that was not assigned to other identifiable, separately recognizable assets acquired, and we recorded this amount as Goodwill.We believe the primary items that generated the goodwill are the value of the synergies created between the acquired assets and our pre-existing ethanol handling assets, and our expected ability to grow the business by leveraging our pre-existing experience in ethanol handling operations.We expect that the entire amount of goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes. Slay Industries Terminal Acquisition On March 5, 2010, we acquired certain bulk and liquids terminal assets from Slay Industries for an aggregate consideration of $104.0 million, consisting of $97.0 million in cash, assumed liabilities of $1.7 million, and an obligation to pay additional cash consideration in years 2013 through 2019, contingent upon the purchased assets providing us an agreed-upon amount of earnings during the three years following the closing.As of the acquisition date, the contingent consideration had a fair value of $5.3 million, and we expect to pay approximately $4.6 million of this liability in the first half of 2013. The acquired assets include (i) a marine terminal located in Sauget, Illinois; (ii) a transload liquid operation located in Muscatine, Iowa; (iii) a liquid bulk terminal located in St. Louis, Missouri; and (iv) a warehousing distribution center located in St. Louis.All of the acquired terminals have long-term contracts with large creditworthy shippers.As part of the transaction, we and Slay Industries entered into joint venture agreements at both the Kellogg Dock coal bulk terminal, located in Modoc, Illinois, and at the |

Intangibles | 3. Intangibles Goodwill We evaluate goodwill for impairment on May 31 of each year.For this purpose, we have six reporting units as follows: (i) Products Pipelines (excluding associated terminals); (ii) Products Pipelines Terminals (evaluated separately from Products Pipelines for goodwill purposes); (iii) Natural Gas Pipelines; (iv) CO2; (v) Terminals; and (vi) Kinder Morgan Canada. There were no impairment charges resulting from our May 31, 2009 impairment testing, and no event indicating an impairment has occurred subsequent to that date.The fair value of each reporting unit was determined from the present value of the expected future cash flows from the applicable reporting unit (inclusive of a terminal value calculated using market multiples between six and ten times cash flows) discounted at a rate of 9.0%.The value of each reporting unit was determined on a stand-alone basis from the perspective of a market participant and represented the price that would be received to sell the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Changes in the gross amounts of our goodwill and accumulated impairment losses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are summarized as follows (in millions): Products Pipelines Natural Gas Pipelines CO2 Terminals Kinder Morgan Canada Total Balance as of December 31, 2009 Goodwill $ 263.2 $ 337.0 $ 46.1 $ 266.9 $ 613.1 $ 1,526.3 Accumulated impairment losses(a) - - - - (377.1 ) (377.1 ) 263.2 337.0 46.1 266.9 236.0 1,149.2 Acquisitions - - - 58.9 - 58.9 Disposals - - - - - - Impairments - - - - - - Currency translation adjustments - - - - 8.1 8.1 Balance as of March 31, 2010 Goodwill 263.2 337.0 46.1 325.8 621.2 1,593.3 Accumulated impairment losses - - - - (377.1 ) (377.1 ) $ 263.2 $ 337.0 $ 46.1 $ 325.8 $ 244.1 $ 1,216.2 __________ (a) On April 18, 2007, we announced that we would acquire the Trans Mountain pipeline system from KMI, and this transaction was completed April 30, 2007.Following the provisions of generally accepted accounting principles, the consideration of this transaction caused KMI to consider the fair value of the Trans Mountain pipeline system, and to determine whether goodwill related to these assets was impaired.Based on this determination, KMI recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $377.1 million in the first quarter of 2007, and because we have included all of the historical results of Trans Mountain as though the net assets had been transferred to us on January 1, 2006, this impairment is now reflected in our accumulated impairment losses above. In addition, we identify any premium or excess cost we pay over our proportionate share of the underlying fair value of net assets acquired and accounted for as investments under the equity method of accounting.This premium or excess cost is referred to as equity method goodwill and is also not subject to amortization but rather to impairment testing.No event or |

Debt | 4. Debt We classify our debt based on the contractual maturity dates of the underlying debt instruments or as of the earliest put date available to the holders of the applicable debt.We defer costs associated with debt issuance over the applicable term or to the first put date, in the case of debt with a put feature.These costs are then amortized as interest expense in our consolidated statements of income. The net carrying amount of our debt (including both short-term and long-term amounts and excluding the value of interest rate swap agreements) as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $11,016.4 million and $10,592.4 million, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate on all of our borrowings was approximately4.32% during the first quarter of 2010, and approximately 5.11% during the first quarter of 2009. Our outstanding short-term debt as of March 31, 2010 was $1,734.4 million.The balance consisted of(i) $700.0 million in principal amount of 6.75% senior notes due March 15, 2011 (including discount, the notes had a carrying amount of $699.8 million as of March 31, 2010); (ii) $675.0 million in outstanding borrowings under our unsecured revolving bank credit facility; (iii) $250.0 million in principal amount of 7.50% senior notes due November 1, 2010; (iv) $65.0 million of commercial paper borrowings; (v) $23.7 million in principal amount of tax-exempt bonds that mature on April 1, 2024, but are due on demand pursuant to certain standby purchase agreement provisions contained in the bond indenture (our subsidiary Kinder Morgan Operating L.P. B is the obligor on the bonds); (vi) a $9.0 million portion of a 5.40% long-term note payable (our subsidiaries Kinder Morgan Operating L.P. A and Kinder Morgan Canada Company are the obligors on the note); (vii) a $6.9 million portion of 5.23% senior notes (our subsidiary Kinder Morgan Texas Pipeline, L.P. is the obligor on the notes); and (viii) $5.0 million in principal amount of 6.00% Development Revenue Bonds issued by the Louisiana Community Development Authority, a political subdivision of the state of Louisiana (our subsidiary Kinder Morgan Louisiana Pipeline LLC is the obligor on the bonds). Credit Facility Our $1.79 billion unsecured bank credit facility is with a syndicate of financial institutions, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is the administrative agent.The credit facility permits us to obtain bids for fixed rate loans from members of the lending syndicate, and the facility can be amended to allow for borrowings of up to $2.04 billion.Interest on our credit facility accrues at our option at a floating rate equal to either (i) the administrative agents base rate (but not less than the Federal Funds Rate, plus 0.5%); or (ii) LIBOR, plus a margin, which varies depending upon the credit rating of our long-term senior unsecured debt.Borrowings under our credit facility can be used for partnership purposes and as a backup for our commercial paper program. The outstanding balance under our credit facility was $675 million as of March 31, 2010, and the average interest rate on these borrowings was 0.58%.As of December 31, 2009, the outstanding balance und |

Risk Management | 6. Risk Management Certain of our business activities expose us to risks associated with unfavorable changes in the market price of natural gas, natural gas liquids and crude oil.We also have exposure to interest rate risk as a result of the issuance of our debt obligations.Pursuant to our managements approved risk management policy, we use derivative contracts to hedge or reduce our exposure to certain of these risks. Energy Commodity Price Risk Management We are exposed to risks associated with changes in the market price of natural gas, natural gas liquids and crude oil as a result of the forecasted purchase or sale of these products.Specifically, these risks are primarily associated with unfavorable price volatility related to (i) pre-existing or anticipated physical natural gas, natural gas liquids and crude oil sales; (ii) natural gas purchases; and (iii) natural gas system use and storage.The unfavorable price changes are often caused by shifts in the supply and demand for these commodities, as well as their locations. Our principal use of energy commodity derivative contracts is to mitigate the risk associated with unfavorable market movements in the price of energy commodities.Our energy commodity derivative contracts act as a hedging (offset) mechanism against the volatility of energy commodity prices by allowing us to transfer this price risk to counterparties who are able and willing to bear it. For derivative contracts that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles, the portion of the gain or loss on the derivative contract that is effective in offsetting the variable cash flows associated with the hedged forecasted transaction is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings (e.g., in revenues when the hedged transactions are commodity sales).The remaining gain or loss on the derivative contract in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any (i.e., the ineffective portion), is recognized in earnings during the current period.The effectiveness of hedges using an option contract may be assessed based on changes in the options intrinsic value with the change in the time value of the contract being excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness.Changes in the excluded component of the change in an options time value are included currently in earnings.In the first quarter of 2010, we recognized a net gain of $6.3 million related to crude oil and natural gas hedges, which resulted from hedge ineffectiveness and amounts excluded from effectiveness testing. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, we reclassified a loss of $47.5 million and a gain of $17.3 million, respectively, from Accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings.All amounts reclassified into net income during the first quarter of both years resulted from the hedged forecasted transactions actually affecting earnings (i |

Fair Value | 7. Fair Value The Codification emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions (inputs) that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.Inputs may be observable or unobservable, and valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.Accordingly, the Codification establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework that ranks the quality and reliability of information used to determine fair values.The hierarchy is associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs to the fair value measurement processquoted prices are the most reliable valuation inputs, whereas model values that include inputs based on unobservable data are the least reliable.Each fair value measurement must be assigned to a level corresponding to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three broad levels of inputs defined by the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 Inputsquoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date; Level 2 Inputsinputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and Level 3 Inputsunobservable inputs for the asset or liability.These unobservable inputs reflect the entitys own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (which might include the reporting entitys own data).

Reportable Segments | 8. Reportable Segments We divide our operations into five reportable business segments.These segments and their principal source of revenues are as follows: Products Pipelines the transportation and terminaling of refined petroleum products, including gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel and natural gas liquids; Natural Gas Pipelinesthe sale, transport, processing, treating, storage and gathering of natural gas; CO2the production and sale of crude oil from fields in the Permian Basin of West Texas and the transportation and marketing of carbon dioxide used as a flooding medium for recovering crude oil from mature oil fields; Terminalsthe transloading and storing of refined petroleum products and dry and liquid bulk products, including coal, petroleum coke, cement, alumina, salt and other bulk chemicals; and Kinder Morgan Canadathe transportation of crude oil and refined products from Alberta, Canada to marketing terminals and refineries in British Columbia, the state of Washington and the Rocky Mountains and Central regions of the United States. We evaluate performance principally based on each segments earnings before depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses (including amortization of excess cost of equity investments), which excludes general and administrative expenses, third-party debt costs and interest expense, unallocable interest income, and unallocable income tax expense. Our reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services.Each segment is managed separately because each segment involves different products and marketing strategies.

Regulatory Matters | 11.Regulatory Matters Below is a brief description of our ongoing regulatory matters, including any material developments that occurred during the first three months of 2010.This note also contains a description of any material regulatory matters initiated during the first three months of 2010 in which we are involved. Natural Gas Pipeline Expansion Filings Rockies Express Pipeline LLCMeeker to Cheyenne Expansion Project Pursuant to certain rights exercised by EnCana Gas Marketing USA as a result of its foundation shipper status on the former Entrega Gas Pipeline LLC facilities (now part of the Rockies Express Pipeline), Rockies Express Pipeline LLC requested authorization to construct and operate certain facilities that will comprise its Meeker, Colorado to Cheyenne Hub expansion project.The proposed expansion will add natural gas compression at its Big Hole compressor station located in Moffat County, Colorado, and its Arlington compressor station located in Carbon County, Wyoming.Upon completion, the additional compression will permit the transportation of an additional 200 million cubic feet per day of natural gas from (i) the Meeker Hub located in Rio Blanco County, Colorado northward to the Wamsutter Hub located in Sweetwater County, Wyoming; and (ii) the Wamsutter Hub eastward to the Cheyenne Hub located in Weld County, Colorado. By FERC order issued July 16, 2009, Rockies Express Pipeline LLC was granted authorization to construct and operate this project, and it commenced construction on August 4, 2009.The expansion is fully contracted.The additional compression at the Big Hole compressor station was made available as of December 9, 2009, and the additional compression at the Arlington compressor stationis expected to be operational in August 2010.The total FERC authorized cost for the proposed project is approximately $78 million; however, Rockies Express Pipeline LLC is currently projecting that the final actual cost will be approximately $25 million less. Kinder Morgan Interstate Gas Transmission Pipeline - Huntsman 2009 Expansion Project KMIGT has filed an application with the FERC for authorization to construct and operate certain storage facilities necessary to increase the storage capability of the existing Huntsman Storage Facility, located near Sidney, Nebraska.KMIGT also requested approval of new incremental rates for the project facilities under its currently effective Cheyenne Market Center Service Rate Schedule CMC-2.When fully constructed, the proposed facilities will create incremental firm storage capacity for up to one million dekatherms of natural gas, with an associated injection capability of approximately 6,400 dekatherms per day and an associated deliverability of approximately 10,400 dekatherms per day.As a result of an open season, KMIGT and one shipper executed a firm precedent agreement for 100% of the capacity to be created by the project facilities for a five-year term.By FERC order issued September 30, 2009, KMIGT was granted authorization to construct and operate the project, and construction of the project commenced on October 12, 2009.KMIGT received FERC approval to commence the expande |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements | 12.Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Updates In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-16, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-17, Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities.ASU No. 2009-16 amended the Codifications Transfers and Servicing Topic to include the provisions included within the FASBs previous Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assetsan amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, issued June 12, 2009.ASU No. 2009-17 amended the Codifications Consolidations Topic to include the provisions included within the FASBs previous SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), also issued June 12, 2009.These two Updates change the way entities must account for securitizations and special-purpose entities.ASU No. 2009-16 requires more information about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets.ASU No. 2009-17 changes how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated.For us, both Updates were effective January 1, 2010; however, the adoption of these Updates did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements. In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.This ASU requires both the gross presentation of activity within the Level 3 fair value measurement roll forward and the details of transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 fair value measurements.It also clarifies certain disclosure requirements on the level of disaggregation of fair value measurements and disclosures on inputs and valuation techniques.For us, this ASU was effective January 1, 2010 (except for the Level 3 roll forward which is effective for us January 1, 2011); however, because this ASU pertains to disclosure requirements only, the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. |
