NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
Organization
We are a limited partnership focused on the midstream segment of the oil and gas industry in the Gulf Coast region of the United States, primarily Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and in the Gulf of Mexico. We have a diverse portfolio of assets, including pipelines, refinery-related plants, storage tanks and terminals, barges and trucks. We were formed in 1996 and are owned
100%
by our limited partners. Genesis Energy, LLC, our general partner, is a wholly-owned subsidiary. Our general partner has sole responsibility for conducting our business and managing our operations. We conduct our operations and own our operating assets through our subsidiaries and joint ventures. We manage our businesses through the following three divisions that constitute our reportable segments:
•
Pipeline transportation of interstate, intrastate and offshore crude oil, and, to a lesser extent, carbon dioxide (or "CO
2
");
•
Refinery services involving processing of high sulfur (or “sour”) gas streams for refineries to remove the sulfur and selling the related by-product, sodium hydrosulfide (or “NaHS”, commonly pronounced "nash"); and
•
Supply and logistics services, which include terminaling, blending, storing, marketing, and transporting crude oil and petroleum products and, on a smaller scale, CO
2
.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include Genesis Energy, L.P. and its subsidiaries, including Genesis Energy, LLC, our general partner.
Our results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they reflect all adjustments (which consist solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial results for interim periods. Certain information and notes normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when read in conjunction with the information contained in the periodic reports we file with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2011
.
Except per unit amounts, or as noted within the context of each footnote disclosure, the dollar amounts presented in the tabular data within these footnote disclosures are stated in thousands of dollars.
2. Acquisitions
Interests in Gulf of Mexico Crude Oil Pipeline Systems
On
January 3, 2012
, we acquired from Marathon Oil Company interests in several Gulf of Mexico crude oil pipeline systems. The acquired pipeline interests include a
28%
interest in Poseidon Oil Pipeline Company, L.L.C. (or “Poseidon”), a
100%
interest in Marathon Offshore Pipeline, LLC (subsequently re-named GEL Offshore Pipeline, LLC, or “GOPL”) and a
29%
interest in Odyssey Pipeline L.L.C. (or “Odyssey”). GOPL owns a
23%
interest in the Eugene Island crude oil pipeline system and a
100%
interest in
two
smaller offshore pipelines. The purchase price, net of post-closing adjustments, was
$205.6 million
. We funded the purchase price with cash available under our credit facility. We account for our interests in Poseidon and Odyssey under the equity method of accounting. We have recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of GOPL in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at their estimated fair values on a preliminary basis. Management developed these preliminary fair values and we do not expect any material adjustments to these preliminary purchase price allocations as a result of the final valuation.

The Poseidon pipeline system is comprised of a
367
-mile network of crude oil pipelines, varying in diameter from
16
to
24
inches, with capacity to deliver approximately
400,000
barrels per day of crude oil from developments in the central and western offshore Gulf of Mexico to other pipelines and terminals onshore and offshore Louisiana. The Eugene Island pipeline system is primarily comprised of a
183
-mile network of crude oil pipelines, the main pipeline of which is
20
inches in diameter, with capacity to deliver approximately
200,000
barrels per day of crude oil from developments in the central Gulf of Mexico to other pipelines and terminals onshore Louisiana. The Odyssey pipeline system is comprised of a
120
-mile network of crude oil pipelines, varying in diameter from
12
to
20
inches, with capacity to deliver up to
300,000
barrels per day of crude oil from developments in the eastern Gulf of Mexico to other pipelines and terminals onshore Louisiana.
Our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of the acquired pipeline interests since the effective closing date of the acquisition in
January 2012

FMT Black Oil Barge Transportation Business
In
August 2011
, we completed the acquisition of the black oil barge transportation business of Florida Marine Transporters, Inc. and its affiliates (“FMT”). The purchase price was
$143.5 million
(including
$2.5 million
for fuel inventory and other costs). The acquired business was comprised of
30
barges (
seven
of which were initially sub-leased under terms similar to those of an existing FMT lease, which we subsequently purchased in
February 2012
for
$30.6 million
) and
14
push/tow boats which transport heavy refined products, primarily serving refineries and storage terminals along the Gulf Coast,

Intracoastal Canal and western river systems of the United States, including the Red, Ouachita and Mississippi Rivers. The
August 2011
acquisition and related transaction costs were funded with a portion of the net proceeds from the
July 2011
public offering of our common units, whereby we raised approximately
$185 million
in net proceeds of equity capital. The
February 2012
vessels purchase was funded with cash available under our credit facility.
The financial results of the acquired business are included in our supply and logistics segment from the date of the acquisition.

5. Equity Investees
We account for our ownership in our joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. The price we pay to acquire an ownership interest in a company may exceed the underlying book value of the capital accounts we acquire. Such excess cost amounts are included within the carrying values of our equity investees. At
September 30, 2012
and
December 31, 2011
, the unamortized excess cost amounts totaled
$236.6 million
and
$97.8 million
, respectively. We amortize the excess cost as a reduction in equity earnings in a manner similar to depreciation.

Table of Contents
GENESIS ENERGY, L.P.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Senior Secured Credit Facility
In
July 2012
, we amended and restated our senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of banks to, among other things, increase the committed amount from
$775 million
to
$1 billion
and the accordion feature from
$225 million
to
$300 million
, giving us the ability to expand the size of the facility up to an aggregate
$1.3 billion
for acquisitions or internal growth projects, subject to lender consent. The inventory financing sublimit tranche was increased from
$125 million
to
$150 million
, and the term of our credit facility was extended to
July 25, 2017
.
The key terms for rates under our credit facility, which are dependent on our leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement), are as follows:
•
The applicable margin varies from
1.75%
to
2.75%
on eurodollar borrowings and from
0.75%
to
1.75%
on alternate base rate borrowings.
•
Letter of credit fees range from
1.75%
to
2.75%
.
•
The commitment fee on the unused committed amount will range from
0.375%
to
0.50%
.
At
September 30, 2012
, we had
$483 million
borrowed under our credit facility, with
$48.6 million
of the borrowed amount designated as a loan under the inventory sublimit. The credit agreement allows up to
$100 million
of the capacity to be used for letters of credit, of which
$12.6 million
was outstanding at
September 30, 2012
. Due to the revolving nature of loans under our credit facility, additional borrowings and periodic repayments and re-borrowings may be made until the maturity date. The total amount available for borrowings under our credit facility at
September 30, 2012
was
$504.4 million
.
Senior Unsecured Notes Issuance
On
February 1, 2012
, we issued an additional
$100 million
of aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes under our existing
7.875%
senior unsecured notes due
2018
indenture. The notes were issued at
101%
of face value at an effective interest rate of
7.682%
. The notes have the same terms and conditions as the notes previously issued under the indenture. The issuance increased the total aggregate principal amount under the indenture to
$350 million
. The net proceeds were used to repay borrowings under our credit facility.
8. Partners’ Capital and Distributions
On
March 28, 2012
, we issued
5,750,000
Class A common units in a public offering at a price of
$30.80
per unit. We received proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, of
$169.4 million
from the offering. The net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of borrowings under our credit facility. At
September 30, 2012
, our outstanding common units consisted of
81,162,755
Class A units and
39,997
Class B units.
Waiver Units
Our waiver units are non-voting securities entitled to a minimal preferential quarterly distribution. At issuance our waiver units were comprised of four classes (designated Class 1, Class 2, Class 3 and Class 4) of
1,738,000
units. The waiver units in each class are convertible into Class A common units in the calendar quarter at a 1:1 conversion rate during which each of our common units receives a specified minimum quarterly distribution and our distribution coverage ratio (after giving effect to the then convertible waiver units) would be at least 1.1 times. The minimum distribution per common unit required for conversion is
$0.43
(Class 1),
$0.46
(Class 2),
$0.49
(Class 3) and
$0.52
(Class 4).
On
February 14, 2012
, our Class 1 waiver units became convertible as we paid a distribution of
$0.44
per common unit and satisfied the conversion coverage ratio requirement. All Class 1 waiver units were converted into common units by
March 31, 2012
.
On
August 14, 2012
, our Class 2 waiver units became convertible as we paid a distribution of
$0.46
per common unit and satisfied the conversion coverage ratio requirement. All Class 2 waiver units were converted into common units by
September 30, 2012
.
At
September 30, 2012
, we had
3,476,466
waiver units outstanding comprised of the last two classes.

9. Business Segment Information
Our operations consist of three operating segments:
(1)
Pipeline Transportation – interstate, intrastate and offshore crude oil, and to a lesser extent, CO
2
;
(2)
Refinery Services – processing high sulfur (or “sour”) gas streams as part of refining operations to remove the sulfur and selling the related by-product, NaHS and;
(3)
Supply and Logistics – terminaling, blending, storing, marketing, and transporting crude oil and petroleum products (primarily fuel oil, asphalt, and other heavy refined products) and, on a smaller scale, CO
2
.
Substantially all of our revenues are derived from, and substantially all of our assets are located in, the United States.
We define Segment Margin as revenues less product costs, operating expenses (excluding non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization), and segment general and administrative expenses, plus our equity in distributable cash generated by our equity investees. In addition, our Segment Margin definition excludes the non-cash effects of our stock appreciation rights plan and includes the non-income portion of payments received under direct financing leases.
Our chief operating decision maker (our Chief Executive Officer) evaluates segment performance based on a variety of measures including Segment Margin, segment volumes, where relevant, and capital investment.

for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2012
and

, respectively.
At
September 30, 2012
and
2011
, we had incurred liabilities for fixed and intangible asset additions totaling
$4.8 million
and
$1.3 million
, respectively, that had not been paid at the end of the
third
quarter, and, therefore, were not included in the caption “Payments to acquire fixed and intangible assets” under Cash Flows from Investing Activities in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
At
September 30, 2012
, we had incurred liabilities for other asset additions totaling
$0.6 million
that had not been paid at the end of the third quarter, and, therefore, were not included in the caption "Other, net" under Cash Flows from Investing Activities in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
12. Derivatives
Commodity Derivatives
We have exposure to commodity price changes related to our inventory and purchase commitments. We utilize derivative instruments (primarily futures and options contracts traded on the NYMEX) to hedge our exposure to commodity prices, primarily of crude oil, fuel oil and petroleum products. Our decision as to whether to designate derivative instruments as fair value hedges for accounting purposes relates to our expectations of the length of time we expect to have the commodity price exposure and our expectations as to whether the derivative contract will qualify as highly effective under accounting guidance in limiting our exposure to commodity price risk. Most of the petroleum products, including fuel oil that we supply, cannot be hedged with a high degree of effectiveness with derivative contracts available on the NYMEX; therefore, we do not designate derivative contracts utilized to limit our price risk related to these products as hedges for accounting purposes. Typically we utilize crude oil and other petroleum products futures and option contracts to limit our exposure to the effect of fluctuations in petroleum products prices on the future sale of our inventory or commitments to purchase petroleum products, and we recognize any changes in fair value of the derivative contracts as increases or decreases in our cost of sales. The recognition of changes in fair value of the derivative contracts not designated as hedges for accounting purposes can occur in reporting periods that do not coincide with the recognition of gain or loss on the actual transaction being hedged. Therefore we will, on occasion, report gains or losses in one period that will be partially offset by gains or losses in a future period when the hedged transaction is completed.
In accordance with NYMEX requirements, we fund the margin associated with our loss positions on commodity derivative contracts traded on the NYMEX. The amount of the margin is adjusted daily based on the fair value of the commodity contracts. The margin requirements are intended to mitigate a party’s exposure to market volatility and the associated contracting party risk. We offset fair value amounts recorded for our NYMEX derivative contracts against margin funding as required by the NYMEX in Current Assets - Other in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Financial Statement Impacts
Unrealized gains are subtracted from net income and unrealized losses are added to net income in determining cash flows from operating activities. To the extent that we have fair value hedges outstanding, the offsetting change recorded in the fair value of inventory is also eliminated from net income in determining cash flows from operating activities. Changes in margin deposits necessary to fund unrealized losses also affect cash flows from operating activities.

13. Fair-Value Measurements
We classify financial assets and liabilities into the following three levels based on the inputs used to measure fair value:
(1)
Level 1 fair values are based on observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
(2)
Level 2 fair values are based on pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets and are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date; and
(3)
Level 3 fair values are based on unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists. As required by fair value accounting guidance, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value requires judgment and may affect the placement of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy levels.
The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates indicated.

Our commodity derivatives include exchange-traded futures and exchange-traded options contracts. The fair value of these exchange-traded derivative contracts is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and is, therefore, included in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
See
Note 12
for additional information on our derivative instruments.
Nonfinancial Assets and Liabilities
We utilize fair value on a non-recurring basis to perform impairment tests as required on our property, plant and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets. Assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations are recorded at their fair value as of the date of acquisition. The inputs used to determine such fair value are primarily based upon internally developed cash flow models and would generally be classified in Level 3, in the event that we were required to measure and record such assets within our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, we use fair value to determine the inception value of our asset retirement obligations. The inputs used to determine such fair value are primarily based upon costs incurred historically for similar work, as well as estimates from independent third parties for costs that would be incurred to restore leased property to the contractually stipulated condition, and would generally be classified in Level 3.

Other Fair Value Measurements
We believe the debt outstanding under our credit facility approximates fair value as the stated rate of interest approximates current market rates for similar instruments with comparable maturities. At
September 30, 2012
, our senior unsecured notes had a carrying value of
$351 million
and a fair value of
$371.4 million
, compared to
$250 million
and
$253.1 million
, respectively, at
December 31, 2011
. The fair value of the senior unsecured notes is determined based on trade information in the financial markets of our public debt and is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.
14. Contingencies
We are subject to various environmental laws and regulations. Policies and procedures are in place to monitor compliance and to detect and address any material releases of crude oil from our pipelines or other facilities; however, no assurance can be made that such environmental releases may not substantially affect our business.
We are subject to lawsuits in the normal course of business, as well as examinations by tax and other regulatory authorities. We do not expect such matters presently pending to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
15. Income Taxes
In the third quarter of 2012, we reversed
$8.2 million
of uncertain tax positions and recognized an income tax benefit in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a result of tax audit settlements and the expiration of statutes of limitations. These uncertain tax positions were included in Other Long-Term Liabilities in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following information should be read in conjunction with our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The following information and such Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should also be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes, together with our discussion and analysis of financial position and results of operations, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis are the following sections:
•
Overview
•
Acquisition
•
Financial Measures
•
Results of Operations
•
Liquidity and Capital Resources
•
Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
•
Forward Looking Statements
Overview
We reported net income of
$31.2 million
, or
$0.39
per common unit during the three months ended
September 30, 2012
(“
2012
Quarter”) compared to net income of
$19.1 million
or
$0.27
per common unit during the three months ended
September 30, 2011
(“
2011
Quarter”). The significant factors benefiting net income were improved operating results by all of our business segments and a decrease in our income tax expense. The increases in net income were partially offset by increases in general and administrative expenses and interest costs. A more detailed discussion of our segment results and other costs is included below in “Results of Operations”.
Segment Margin (as described below in “Financial Measures”) increased by
$13 million
, or
25%
, in the
2012
Quarter, as compared to the
2011
Quarter. This increase resulted from improvement in Segment Margin in our pipeline transportation, refinery services and supply and logistics segments of
45%
,
6%
and
25%
, respectively. The contribution from our interests in certain Gulf of Mexico pipelines that we acquired in
2012
and higher crude oil tariff revenues were the primary factors increasing pipeline transportation segment margin. Results for our pipeline transportation segment were somewhat reduced during both quarters due to ongoing improvements at several dedicated fields. Improvements at those fields were substantially completed late in the
2012
Quarter. Our refinery services segment margin increased primarily as a result of increased NaHS sales volumes and operating efficiencies realized at several of our sour gas processing facilities as well as our favorable management of the acquisition and utilization of caustic soda in our, and our customers', operations. Our supply and logistics segment benefited from acquisitions and other growth initiatives completed in the second half of
2011
as well as higher volumes handled by our expanded trucking and barge fleets.
Available Cash before Reserves increased
$8.8 million
, or
24%
, in the
2012
Quarter (as compared to the
2011
Quarter) to
$45.9 million
consistent with the increase in net income described above. See “Financial Measures” below for additional information on Available Cash before Reserves.
Distribution Increase
In
October 2012
, we declared our
twenty-ninth
consecutive increase in our quarterly distribution to our common unitholders relative to the
third
quarter of
2012
. During that period,
twenty-four
of those quarterly increases have been 10% or greater year-over-year. In
November 2012
, we will pay a distribution of
$0.4725
per unit representing a
10.5%
increase from our distribution of
$0.4275
per unit related to the
third
quarter of
2011
. During the
third
quarter of
2012
, we paid a distribution of
$0.46
per unit related to the
second
quarter of
2012
.
Acquisition
In
January 2012
, we acquired from Marathon Oil Company interests in several Gulf of Mexico crude oil pipeline systems. The acquired pipeline interests include a
28%
interest in Poseidon Oil Pipeline Company, L.L.C. (or “Poseidon”), a
100%
interest in Marathon Offshore Pipeline, LLC (subsequently re-named GEL Offshore Pipeline, LLC, or “GOPL”) and a
29%
interest in Odyssey Pipeline L.L.C. (or “Odyssey”). GOPL owns a
23%
interest in the Eugene Island crude oil pipeline system and a
100%
interest in two smaller offshore pipelines. The purchase price, net of post-closing adjustments, was
$205.6 million
. We funded the purchase price with cash available under our credit facility.
This acquisition complements our existing infrastructure in the Gulf of Mexico and enhances our ability to provide capacity and market optionality to producers for their existing and future developments as well as our refining customers
28

onshore Texas and Louisiana. The Poseidon pipeline system is comprised of a
367
-mile network of crude oil pipelines, varying in diameter from
16
to
24
inches, with capacity to deliver approximately
400,000
barrels per day of crude oil from developments in the central and western offshore Gulf of Mexico to other pipelines and terminals onshore and offshore Louisiana. Affiliates of Enterprise Products and Shell each own a
36%
interest in Poseidon. An affiliate of Enterprise Products serves as the operator of Poseidon. The Eugene Island pipeline system is primarily comprised of a
183
-mile network of crude oil pipelines, the main pipeline of which is
20
inches in diameter, with capacity to deliver approximately
200,000
barrels per day of crude oil from developments in the central Gulf of Mexico to other pipelines and terminals onshore Louisiana. Other owners in Eugene Island include affiliates of Exxon-Mobil, Chevron-Texaco, ConocoPhillips and Shell. An affiliate of Shell serves as the operator of Eugene Island. The Odyssey pipeline system is comprised of a
120
-mile network of crude oil pipelines, varying in diameter from
12
to
20
inches, with capacity to deliver up to
300,000
barrels per day of crude oil from developments in the eastern Gulf of Mexico to other pipelines and terminals onshore Louisiana. An affiliate of Shell owns the remaining
71%
interest in Odyssey, and an affiliate of Shell serves as the operator of Odyssey.
Financial Measures
In the discussions that follow, we will focus on our revenues, expenses and net income, as well as two measures that we use to manage the business and to review the results of our operations. Those two measures are Segment Margin and Available Cash before Reserves.
Segment Margin
We define Segment Margin as revenues less product costs, operating expenses (excluding non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization), and segment general and administrative expenses, plus our equity in distributable cash generated by our equity investees. In addition, our Segment Margin definition excludes the non-cash effects of our stock appreciation rights plan and includes the non-income portion of payments received under direct financing leases. Our chief operating decision maker (our Chief Executive Officer) evaluates segment performance based on a variety of measures including Segment Margin, segment volumes, where relevant, and capital investment. A reconciliation of Segment Margin to income before income taxes is included in our segment disclosures in
Note 9
to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Available Cash before Reserves
This quarterly report includes the financial measure of Available Cash before Reserves, which is a “non-GAAP” measure because it is not contemplated by or referenced in accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., also referred to as GAAP. The accompanying schedule below provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Our non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other GAAP measure of liquidity or financial performance. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures being utilized by management, lenders, analysts, and other market participants.
Available Cash before Reserves, also referred to as distributable cash flow, is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by management and by external users of financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks, research analysts and rating agencies, to assess: (1) the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures, or historical cost basis; (2) the ability of our assets to generate cash sufficient to pay interest costs and support our indebtedness; (3) our operating performance and return on capital as compared to those of other companies in the midstream energy industry, without regard to financing and capital structure; and (4) the viability of projects and the overall rates of return on alternative investment opportunities. Because Available Cash before Reserves excludes some items that affect net income or loss and because these measures may vary among other companies, the Available Cash before Reserves data presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Available Cash before Reserves is a performance measure used by our management to compare cash flows generated by us to the cash distribution paid to our common unitholders. This is an important financial measure to our public unitholders since it is an indicator of our ability to provide a cash return on their investment. Specifically, this financial measure aids investors in determining whether or not we are generating cash flows at a level that can support a quarterly cash distribution to the partners. Lastly, Available Cash before Reserves is the quantitative standard used throughout the investment community with respect to publicly-traded partnerships.
Available Cash before Reserves is net income as adjusted for specific items, the most significant of which are the addition of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), the substitution of distributable cash generated by our equity investees in lieu of our equity income attributable to our equity investees, the elimination of gains and losses on asset sales (except those from the sale of surplus assets) and unrealized gains and losses on derivative transactions not designated as
29
Table of Contents
hedges for accounting purposes, the elimination of expenses related to acquiring or constructing assets that provide new sources of cash flows, and the subtraction of maintenance capital expenditures, which are expenditures that are necessary to sustain existing (but not to provide new sources of) cash flows.
Available Cash before Reserves for the periods presented below was as follows:

Results of Operations
Revenues and Costs and Expenses
Our revenues for the
2012
Quarter increased
$112.1 million
, or
14%
from the
2011
Quarter. Additionally, our costs and expenses increased
$111.6 million
, or
14%
between the two periods.
Our revenues for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2012
increased
$515.2 million
, or
23%
from the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
. Costs and expenses increased
$499 million
, or
23%
between the two
nine
month periods.
The majority of our revenues and costs are derived from the purchase and sale of crude oil and petroleum products. The significant increase in our revenues and costs between the two
third
quarter and
nine
month periods is primarily attributable to increased volumes from our continuing operations and our acquisitions and, to a lesser extent, increases in the market prices for crude oil and petroleum products as described below.
Volumes increased in our supply and logistics segment by
30%
quarter to quarter and
27%
between the
nine
month periods as explained in our supply and logistics Segment Margin discussion below. The average closing prices for West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") crude oil on the New York Mercantile Exchange ("NYMEX") increased
3%
to
$92.22
per barrel in the
third
quarter of
2012
, as compared to
$89.76
per barrel in the
third
quarter of
2011
. Average closing prices for WTI crude oil on the NYMEX were consistent between the
nine
month periods at approximately
$96
per barrel.
Segment Margin
The contribution of each of our segments to total Segment Margin in the

Pipeline transportation Segment Margin for the
2012
Quarter increased
$7.3 million
, or
45%
. The significant components of this change were as follows:
•
Crude oil tariff revenues of onshore crude oil pipelines increased
$1.5 million
primarily due to upward tariff indexing of approximately
8.6%
for our FERC-regulated pipelines effective in July 2012.
•
Segment Margin from our offshore crude oil pipelines increased
$6.6 million
reflecting a
$7.7 million
contribution from our interests in the Gulf of Mexico pipelines that we acquired in
2012
. The contribution to Segment Margin by CHOPS declined by
$1.1 million
from the
2011
Quarter due to ongoing improvements being made by producers at several connected fields. Improvements at those fields were substantially completed late in the
2012
Quarter.
•
Onshore pipeline operating costs, excluding non-cash charges, increased
$1.5 million
due to pipeline integrity maintenance on the pipelines and employee compensation and related benefit costs.

•
Crude oil tariff revenues of onshore crude oil pipelines increased
$4.4 million
primarily due to upward tariff indexing of
6.9%
and
8.6%
for our FERC-regulated pipelines effective in July 2011 and 2012, respectively.
•
Segment Margin from our offshore crude oil pipelines increased
$14.8 million
reflecting a
$22.3 million
contribution from our interests in the Gulf of Mexico pipelines that we acquired in
2012
. The increase was partially offset by a decline of
$7.5 million
in the contribution to Segment Margin by CHOPS. Volumes transported on CHOPS decreased approximately
44,000
barrels per day as a result of improvements being made by producers at several connected production fields. Improvements at those fields were substantially completed late in the
2012
Quarter.
•
Revenues from sales of pipeline loss allowance volumes improved Segment Margin by

Refinery services Segment Margin for the
2012
Quarter
increased
$1 million
, or
6%
. The significant components of this fluctuation were as follows:
•
NaHS revenues
increased
primarily as a function of the increase in the average index price for caustic soda and increased sales volumes. The pricing in our sales contracts for NaHS includes adjustments for fluctuations in commodity benchmarks, freight, labor, energy costs and government indexes. The frequency at which these adjustments are applied varies by contract, geographic region and supply point.

Table of Contents
•
Our raw material costs related to NaHS increased correspondingly to the rise in the average index price for caustic soda, although operating efficiencies at several of our sour gas processing facilities, our favorable management of the acquisition and utilization of caustic soda in our, and our customers', operations, and our logistics management helped offset these costs.
•
Caustic soda sales volumes
decreased
10%
. Although caustic sales volumes may fluctuate, the contribution to Segment Margin from these sales is not a significant portion of our refinery services activities. Caustic soda is a key component in the provision of our sulfur-removal service, from which we receive the by-product NaHS. Consequently, we are a very large consumer of caustic soda. In addition, our economies of scale and logistics capabilities allow us to effectively purchase additional caustic soda for re-sale to third parties. Our ability to purchase caustic soda volumes is currently sufficient to meet the demands of our refinery services operations and third-party sales.

increased
to
$579
per DST in the
third

compared to

. Those price movements affect the revenues and costs related to our sulfur removal services as well as our caustic soda sales activities. However, generally, changes in caustic soda prices do not materially affect Segment Margin attributable to our sulfur processing services because we usually pass those costs through to our NaHS sales customers. Additionally, our bulk purchase and storage capabilities related to caustic soda allow us to somewhat mitigate the effects of changes in index prices for caustic on our operating costs.

•
Our raw material costs related to NaHS increased correspondingly to the rise in the average index price for caustic soda. In addition, in the first half of 2012, longer than anticipated refinery turnarounds at some of our largest refinery service locations resulted in increased costs as a result of processing at less efficient locations to ensure uninterrupted supplies to our customers.
•
NaHS revenues
increased
primarily as a function of the increase in the average index price for caustic soda.

Income tax expense
Income tax expense decreased
$8.7 million
between the quarterly periods and
$9.2 million
between the
nine
month periods primarily due to the reversal of
$8.2 million
in uncertain tax positions as a result of tax audit settlements and the expiration of statutes of limitations.
A portion of our operations are owned by wholly-owned corporate subsidiaries that are taxable as corporations. As a result, a substantial portion of the income tax expense we record relates to the operations of those corporations, and will vary from period to period as a percentage of our income before taxes based on the percentage of our income or loss that is derived from those corporations. The balance of the income tax expense we record relates to state taxes imposed on our operations that are treated as income taxes under generally accepted accounting principles and foreign income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
As of
September 30, 2012
, we had
$504.4 million
of borrowing capacity available under our
$1 billion
senior secured revolving credit facility. We anticipate that our future internally-generated funds and the funds available under our credit facility will allow us to meet our ordinary course capital needs. Our primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations and borrowing availability under our credit facility.
Our primary cash requirements consist of:
•
Working capital, primarily inventories;
•
Routine operating expenses;
•
Capital expansion and maintenance projects;
•
Acquisitions of assets or businesses;
•
Interest payments related to outstanding debt; and
•
Quarterly cash distributions to our unitholders.
We continue to pursue a growth strategy that requires significant capital. In January 2012, we borrowed
$205.6 million
under our credit facility to acquire interests in several pipeline systems. See “Capital Expenditures and Business and Asset Acquisitions” below for more information related to our capital spending and acquisitions.
Capital Resources
Our ability to satisfy future capital needs will depend on our ability to raise substantial amounts of additional capital from time to time — including through equity and debt offerings (public and private), borrowings under our credit facility and other financing transactions—to implement our growth strategy successfully. No assurance can be made that we will be able to raise necessary funds on satisfactory terms.
In
July 2012
, we amended and restated our senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of banks to, among other things, increase the committed amount from
$775 million
to
$1 billion
and the accordion feature from
$225 million
to
$300 million
, giving us the ability to expand the size of the facility up to an aggregate of
$1.3 billion
for acquisitions or internal growth projects, subject to lender consent. The inventory financing sublimit tranche was increased from
$125 million
to
$150 million
, and the term of our credit facility was extended to
July 25, 2017
. This inventory tranche is designed to allow us to
36
Table of Contents
more efficiently finance crude oil and petroleum products inventory in the normal course of our operations, by allowing us to exclude the amount of inventory loans from our total outstanding indebtedness for purposes of determining our applicable interest rate. Our credit facility does not include a “borrowing base” limitation except with respect to our inventory loans.
The key terms for rates under our credit facility, which are dependent on our leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement), are as follows:
•
The applicable margin varies from
1.75%
to
2.75%
on eurodollar borrowings and from
0.75%
to
1.75%
on alternate base rate borrowings.
•
Letter of credit fees range from
1.75%
to
2.75%
.
•
The commitment fee on the unused committed amount will range from
0.375%
to
0.50%
.
We do not anticipate any of the lenders that participate in our credit facility being unable to satisfy their obligations under the credit facility.
In
February 2012
, we issued
$100 million
under our existing
7.875%
senior unsecured notes indenture for which the net proceeds were used to repay borrowings under our credit facility. The notes were issued at
101%
of face value at an effective interest rate of
7.682%
. See
Note 7
to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
In
March 2012
, we issued
5,750,000
Class A common units in a public offering at a price of
$30.80
per unit. We received proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, of
$169.4 million
from the offering. The net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of borrowings under our credit facility. See
Note 8
to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
At
September 30, 2012
, long-term debt totaled
$833.9 million
, consisting of
$483 million
outstanding under our credit facility (including
$48.6 million
borrowed under the inventory sublimit tranche) and a
$350.9 million
carrying amount of senior unsecured notes due in
2018
.
Cash Flows from Operations
We generally utilize the cash flows we generate from our operations to fund our working capital needs. Excess funds that are generated are used to repay borrowings from our credit facility and to fund capital expenditures. Our operating cash flows can be impacted by changes in items of working capital, primarily variances in the carrying amount of inventory and the timing of payment of accounts payable and accrued liabilities related to capital expenditures.
We typically sell our crude oil in the same month in which we purchase it, and we do not rely on borrowings under our credit facility to pay for such crude oil purchases, other than inventory. During such periods, our accounts receivable and accounts payable generally move in tandem as we make payments and receive payments for the purchase and sale of oil. In our petroleum products activities, we buy products and typically either move the products to one of our storage facilities for further blending or we sell the product within days of our purchase. The cash requirements for these activities can result in short term increases and decreases in our borrowings under our credit facility. See
Note 11
in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding changes in components of operating assets and liabilities for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2012
and
2011
.
Net cash flows provided by our operating activities for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2012
were
$142.9 million
compared to
$39.1 million
for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2011
. As discussed above, changes in the cash requirements related to payment for petroleum products or collection of receivables from the sale of inventory impact the cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, changes in the market prices for crude oil and petroleum products can result in fluctuations in our operating cash flows between periods as the cost to acquire a barrel of oil or products will require more or less cash. The increase in operating cash flow for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2012
compared to the same period in
2011
was primarily due to higher cash earnings and cash requirements to meet working capital needs.
Capital Expenditures and Distributions Paid to our Unitholders
We use cash primarily for our acquisition activities, internal growth projects and distributions we pay to our unitholders. We finance smaller internal growth projects and distributions primarily with cash generated by our operations. Acquisition activities and large internal growth projects have historically been funded with borrowings under our credit facility, equity issuances and the issuance of senior unsecured notes.

Expenditures for capital assets to grow the partnership distribution will depend on our access to debt and equity capital. We will look for opportunities to acquire assets from other parties that meet our criteria for stable cash flows.
Growth Capital Expenditures
In April 2011, we announced two projects to increase the services we provide to producers and refiners. We acquired three above-ground storage tanks located in Texas City, Texas and an existing barge dock at the same location, all approximately 1.5 miles from our existing Texas pipeline system. We also are constructing a truck station and tankage in West Columbia, Texas to provide incremental transportation service for the Eagle Ford Shale and other Texas production through our pipeline system to refining markets in the greater Houston/Texas City area. Once the refurbishment, tie-in and all interconnecting pipe are completed, estimated to be in the
fourth quarter of 2012
, we will be able to handle approximately
40,000
barrels per day of crude oil through the Texas City terminal. In addition, we have initiated construction of a 18-inch diameter loop of our existing crude oil pipeline into Texas City, supported by a term contract with one of our refining customers, which we expect will allow us to significantly expand our total service capabilities into the Texas City area by the
second quarter of 2013
.
During 2011, we also entered into an agreement to install a new sour gas processing facility at Holly Refining and Marketing’s refinery complex located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The new facility, expected to be completed in the
first quarter of 2013
, will remove a portion of the sulfur from the crude oil refined at Holly’s complex and is expected to result in potential additional capacity of
24,000
DST per year of NaHS.
We anticipate the costs of the projects listed above to be approximately
$80 million
in total, of which we have spent approximately
$56.8 million
since inception in 2011. We expect that the remaining costs for the projects will be spent primarily in the
fourth quarter of 2012
.
38
Table of Contents
We anticipate spending approximately
$33 million
to upgrade our refinery facilities in Wyoming and to bring the related pipeline back in service. We spent
$4.4 million
related to these projects during the first
nine
months of
2012
.
In
August 2012
we completed construction on the first phase of a new crude-by-rail unloading terminal connected to our existing crude oil pipeline at Walnut Hill, Florida. This facility is capable of handling unit train shipments of oil for direct deliveries to an existing refinery customer and indirect deliveries (through third-party common carriers) to multiple other markets in the Southeast at the option of the shippers. We anticipate the second phase of the terminal, which includes a 100,000 barrel storage tank and related equipment, to be completed in the
fourth quarter of 2012
and cost approximately
$4.5 million
.
In
February 2012
, we purchased seven barges from Florida Marine Transporters, which previously had been subleased to us in connection with the acquisition of the black oil barge assets in August 2011. The cost of the seven barges totaled
$30.6 million
, which was funded with our credit facility.
Capital Expenditures Related to Business Combinations and Equity Investees
In
January 2012
, we acquired from Marathon Oil Company interests in several Gulf of Mexico crude oil pipeline systems. The purchase price, net of post-closing adjustments, was
$205.6 million
. We account for our ownership interests in Poseidon and Odyssey under the equity method of accounting. We accounted for our acquisition of GOPL using the acquisition method. See
Note 2
in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
In
December 2011
, we formed Southeast Keathley Canyon Pipeline Company, LLC (or SEKCO) with Enterprise Products to construct a deepwater pipeline serving the Lucius development area in southern Keathley Canyon of the Gulf of Mexico. The new pipeline is expected to begin service by
mid-2014
. We expect to spend approximately
$200 million
for our share of the pipeline construction through
2014
and to reimburse Enterprise Products for our portion of previously incurred costs. We expect to pay approximately
$80 million
in 2012, of which we paid
$57.1 million
during the
first nine months
of
2012
. The anchor producers, which have executed long-term transportation agreements, are responsible for most cost overruns and other costs incurred associated with weather-related delays.
Distributions to Unitholders
On
November 14, 2012
, we will pay a distribution of
$0.4725
per common unit totaling
$38.4 million
with respect to the
third
quarter of
2012
to common unitholders of record on
November 1, 2012
. This is the
twenty-ninth
consecutive quarter in which we have increased our quarterly distribution. Information on our recent distribution history is included in
Note 8
to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, special purpose entities, or financing partnerships, other than as disclosed under “Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2011
, nor do we have any debt or equity triggers based upon our unit or commodity prices.
Forward Looking Statements
The statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical information may be “forward looking statements” as defined under federal law. All statements, other than historical facts, included in this document that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future, including things such as plans for growth of the business, future capital expenditures, competitive strengths, goals, references to future goals or intentions and other such references are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are identified as any statement that does not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “intend,” “may,” “could,” “plan,” “position,” “projection,” “strategy,” “should” or “will,” or the negative of those terms or other variations of them or by comparable terminology. In particular, statements, expressed or implied, concerning future actions, conditions or events or future operating results or the ability to generate sales, income or cash flow are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Future actions, conditions or events and future results of operations may differ materially from
39
Table of Contents
those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results are beyond our ability or the ability of our affiliates to control or predict. Specific factors that could cause actual results to differ from those in the forward-looking statements include, among others:
•
demand for, the supply of, our assumptions about, changes in forecast data for, and price trends related to crude oil, liquid petroleum, NaHS and caustic soda and CO
2
, all of which may be affected by economic activity, capital expenditures by energy producers, weather, alternative energy sources, international events, conservation and technological advances;
•
throughput levels and rates;
•
changes in, or challenges to, our tariff rates;
•
our ability to successfully identify and close strategic acquisitions on acceptable terms (including obtaining third-party consents and waivers of preferential rights), develop or construct energy infrastructure assets, make cost saving changes in operations and integrate acquired assets or businesses into our existing operations;
•
service interruptions in our pipeline transportation systems and processing operations;
•
shut-downs or cutbacks at refineries, petrochemical plants, utilities or other businesses for which we transport crude oil, petroleum products, or
CO
2
or to whom we sell such products;
•
risks inherent in marine transportation and vessel operation, including accidents and discharge of pollutants;
•
changes in laws and regulations to which we are subject, including tax withholding issues, accounting pronouncements, and safety, environmental and employment laws and regulations;
•
the effects of production declines resulting from the suspension of drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and the effects of future laws and government regulation resulting from the Macondo accident and oil spill in the Gulf;
•
planned capital expenditures and availability of capital resources to fund capital expenditures;
•
our inability to borrow or otherwise access funds needed for operations, expansions or capital expenditures as a result of our credit agreement and the indenture governing our notes, which contain various affirmative and negative covenants;
•
loss of key personnel;
•
an increase in the competition that our operations encounter;
•
cost and availability of insurance;
•
hazards and operating risks that may not be covered fully by insurance;
•
our financial and commodity hedging arrangements;
•
changes in global economic conditions, including capital and credit markets conditions, inflation and interest rates;
•
natural disasters, accidents or terrorism;
•
changes in the financial condition of customers or counterparties;
•
adverse rulings, judgments, or settlements in litigation or other legal or tax matters;
•
the treatment of us as a corporation for federal income tax purposes or if we become subject to entity-level taxation for state tax purposes; and
•
the potential that our internal controls may not be adequate, weaknesses may be discovered or remediation of any identified weaknesses may not be successful and the impact these could have on our unit price.
You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. When considering forward-looking statements, please review the risk factors described under “Risk Factors” discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2011
and any other risk factors contained in our Current Reports on Form 8-K that we may file from time to time with the SEC. Except as required by applicable securities laws, we do not intend to update these forward-looking statements and information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, with the participation of our management, have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and have determined that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed in this quarterly report is accumulated and communicated to them and our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

For additional information about our risk factors, see Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2011
. On October 11, 2012, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K that, among other things, included the risk factor set forth below. There have been no material changes to the risk factors since the filing of such Form 10-K and/or Form 8-K.
The Davison family exerts significant influence over us and may have conflicts of interest with us and may be permitted to favor its interests to the detriment of our other unitholders.
James E. Davison, Sr. and James E. Davison, Jr., each of whom is a director of our general partner, and certain of their family members and affiliates own approximately 17.2% of our Common Units - Class A and 76.9% of our Common Units - Class B. The Davison family is able to exert significant influence over us, including the ability to elect at least a majority of the members of our board of directors and the ability to control most matters requiring board approval, such as business strategies, mergers, business combinations, acquisitions or dispositions of significant assets, issuances of additional partnership securities, incurrence of debt or other financing and the payment of distributions. In addition, the continued existence of a controlling group may have the effect of making it difficult for, or may discourage or delay, a third party from seeking to acquire us, which may adversely affect the market price of our common units. Further, conflicts of interest may arise between us and other entities for which members of the Davison family serve as officers or directors. In resolving any conflicts that may arise, such members of the Davison family may favor the interests of another entity over our interests.
The Davison family owns, controls and has interests in diverse companies, some of which may (or could in the future) compete directly or indirectly with us. As a result, the Davison family's interests may not always be consistent with our interests or the interests of our other unitholders. The Davison family could also pursue acquisitions or business opportunities that may be complementary to our business. Our organizational documents allow the holders of our units (including affiliates, like the Davisons) to take advantage of such corporate opportunities without first presenting such opportunities to us. As a result, corporate opportunities that may benefit us may not be available to us in a timely manner, or at all. To the extent that conflicts of interest may arise among us and members of the Davison family, those conflicts may be resolved in a manner adverse to us or you. Other potential conflicts may involve, among others, the following situations:
•
our general partner is allowed to take into account the interest of parties other than us, such as one or more of its affiliates, in resolving conflicts of interest;
•
our general partner may limit its liability and reduce its fiduciary duties, while also restricting the remedies available to our unitholders for actions that, without such limitations, might constitute breaches of fiduciary duty;
•
our general partner determines the amount and timing of asset purchases and sales, capital expenditures, borrowings, issuance of additional partnership securities, reimbursements and enforcement of obligations to the general partner and its affiliates, retention of counsel, accountants and service providers, and cash reserves, each of which can also affect the amount of cash that is distributed to our unitholders; and

•
our general partner determines which costs incurred by it and its affiliates are reimbursable by us and the reimbursement of these costs and of any services provided by our general partner could adversely affect our ability to pay cash distributions to our unitholders.
