31 Dec, 2025Integration and Synergy Progress
Synergy targets of $250 million for 2025 remain on track, with Magellan integration ahead of expectations and additional opportunities identified.
Medallion synergies are progressing well, leveraging control over assets to optimize crude gathering and pipeline utilization.
EnLink integration is on pace, with immediate gains from insurance and other corporate synergies, while some benefits will accrue over time as contracts roll off.
Processing capacity constraints in EnLink require new plant construction, affecting the pace of synergy realization.
Accelerated synergy realization from Magellan, EnLink, and Medallion acquisitions, with $700M+ potential from Magellan and $450M+ from EnLink/Medallion.
Operational Optimization and Cost Savings
Integration of NGL and refined product systems reduces butane logistics costs from $0.20 to $0.10 per gallon by 2026, with further savings expected as expansions come online.
Blending operations are being optimized by shifting volumes from truck to pipeline, enhancing efficiency and reducing costs.
Customers have responded positively to new offerings and capital investments, leading to increased volume commitments.
Connecting legacy systems enables more efficient use of processing plants and maximizes NGL recovery.
NGL segment saw 18% volume growth in 2Q 2025, with major expansion projects underway and >90% fee-based earnings expected.
Growth Projects and Strategic Expansions
New processing plants are being sanctioned in the Delaware and Midland Basins to support volume growth and system integration.
The Denver refined product pipeline will enter service in mid-2026 at 30,000 barrels per day, scalable to 250,000 barrels per day to meet demand in PADD 4 and PADD 5.
Elk Creek and West Texas NGL pipelines were oversized to allow for future volume growth, providing operating leverage and competitive advantage.
The Medford Fractionator, coming online in late 2026, will offer additional low-cost fractionation capacity.
Investing in high-return organic growth projects, including the Medford fractionator rebuild (2026–2027), Bighorn processing plant (mid-2027), and multiple joint venture pipelines and export terminals (2027–2028).
