•Offshore pipeline transportation, which includes the transportation and processing of crude oil and natural gas in the Gulf of America;

•Marine transportation, which provides waterborne transportation of petroleum products (primarily fuel oil, asphalt and other heavy refined products) and crude oil throughout North America; and

•Onshore transportation and services, which includes terminaling, blending, storing, and marketing crude oil, and transporting crude oil and refined products, as well as the processing of high sulfur (or “sour”) gas streams for refineries to remove the sulfur, and selling the related by-product, NaHS.

For additional information regarding our reportable segments, see discussion below entitled “Description of Segments and Related Assets.”

We conduct our operations and own our operating assets through our subsidiaries and joint ventures. Our general partner, Genesis Energy, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary that owns a non-economic general partner interest in us, has sole responsibility for conducting our business and managing our operations. Our outstanding common units (including our Class B Common Units), and our outstanding Class A convertible preferred units (our “Class A Convertible Preferred Units”), representing limited partner interests, constitute all of the economic equity interests in us.

The following chart depicts our organizational structure at December 31, 2025.

Our Objectives and Strategies

Our primary objectives and strategies are to generate and grow stable free cash flows from operations and continue to deleverage our balance sheet, while never wavering from our commitment to safe and responsible operations. We believe the following have been and are critical to meet our objectives:

•The completion of our major growth capital spending program during 2025, which included the construction and connection of our SYNC Pipeline (as defined and discussed further below under “Recent Developments”) and the expansion of our existing Cameron Highway oil pipeline system (“CHOPS Pipeline”) (as discussed further below under “Recent Developments”).

•An increase in volumes from long-term contracted offshore commercial opportunities in the Gulf of America, including volumes from the Shenandoah development, which saw first production in the third quarter of 2025 and ties into our SYNC Pipeline and further downstream to our CHOPS Pipeline, and volumes from the Salamanca Floating Production System (“FPS”), which also saw first production in the third quarter of 2025 and ties into our existing Southeast Keathley Canyon pipeline system (“SEKCO Pipeline”) for further transportation downstream to our Poseidon oil pipeline system (“Poseidon Pipeline”).

•New and incremental volumes from continued in-field and sub-sea tieback opportunities as a result of the continued investment by the offshore producing community. These opportunities require minimal to no additional investment from us as a result of the current production handling capacity on our offshore pipeline transportation assets in the Gulf of America.

•The creation of financial flexibility from the combination of a significant amount of available borrowing capacity under our senior secured credit facility, subject to compliance with covenants, and our increasing cash flows from operations as discussed above, which will allow us to maximize our cash flow and focus on returning value to our capital structure with an emphasis on reducing debt in absolute terms, opportunistically redeeming our Class A Convertible Preferred Units and thoughtfully evaluating increases in our quarterly distributions to common unitholders.

Business Strategy

Our primary business strategy is to provide an integrated suite of services to crude oil and natural gas producers and refiners and provide NaHS and caustic soda to industrial and commercial enterprises. Successfully executing this strategy should enable us to generate and grow stable cash flows from operations. We intend to execute this strategy by:

•Identifying and exploiting incremental profit opportunities, including cost synergies, across an increasingly integrated footprint;

•Economically expanding our pipeline and terminal operations by utilizing capacity currently available on our existing assets that requires minimal to no additional investment;

•Optimizing our existing assets and creating synergies through additional commercial and operating advancement;

•Leveraging customer relationships across business segments;

•Attracting new customers and expanding our scope of services offered to existing customers;

•Expanding the geographic reach of our businesses;

•Evaluating internal and third party growth opportunities (including asset and business acquisitions) that leverage our core competencies and strengths and further integrate our businesses; and

•Focusing on health, safety and environmental stewardship, and advancement of our sustainability program.

Financial Strategy

We believe that preserving financial flexibility is an important factor in our overall strategy and success. Over the long-term, we intend to:

•Increase the relative contribution of recurring and throughput-based revenues, emphasizing longer-term contractual arrangements;

•Maintain a sound, disciplined capital structure, including our current and forward path to deleveraging;

•Preserve a significant amount of available borrowing capacity under our senior secured credit facility;

•Reduce our overall cost of capital through a combination of reducing debt in absolute terms and opportunistically redeeming our high-cost Class A Convertible Preferred Units;

•Create strategic arrangements and share capital costs and risks through joint ventures and strategic alliances;

•Prudently manage our limited direct commodity price risks; and

•Pursue divestitures that support our deleveraging objective.

Competitive Strengths

We believe we are well positioned to execute our strategies and ultimately achieve our objectives due primarily to the following competitive strengths:

•Certain of our businesses are among the leaders in each of their respective markets, have long commercial lives, and have significant barriers to entry. We operate, among others, diversified businesses, each of which is one of the leaders in its market, has a long commercial life, and has significant barriers to entry. We operate one of the largest pipeline networks (based on throughput capacity) in the Deepwater area of the Gulf of America, an area that produced approximately 14% of the oil produced in the U.S. during 2025. We are one of the largest producers and marketers (based on tons produced) of NaHS in North and South America. We are one of the leading providers of crude oil and petroleum product transportation, storage and other handling services for two large, complex refineries in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Baytown, Texas, both of which have been operational for over 100 years.

•Our businesses encompass a balanced, diversified portfolio of customers, operations and assets. We operate three business segments composed of a diversified suite of assets that enable us to provide a number of services primarily to crude oil and natural gas producers and refiners, and provide NaHS and caustic soda to industrial and commercial enterprises. Our businesses complement each other by allowing us to offer an integrated suite of services to common customers across our segments.

•We are financially flexible and have significant liquidity. As of December 31, 2025, we had $788.6 million of availability under our $800.0 million senior secured credit facility, subject to compliance with our covenants, including up to $171.9 million available under the $200.0 million petroleum products inventory loan sublimit and $45.0 million available for letters of credit. Our inventory borrowing base was $28.1 million at December 31, 2025.

•Our businesses provide relatively consistent consolidated financial performance. Our historically consistent financial performance, combined with our goal of a conservative capital structure over the long term, has allowed us to generate relatively stable cash flows from operations.

•We have limited direct commodity price risk exposure in our crude oil marketing business and limited cost exposure in our NaHS business. The volumes of crude oil, refined products or intermediate feedstocks we purchase are either subject to back-to-back sales contracts or are hedged with exchange-traded derivatives to limit our direct exposure to movements in the price of the commodity; however, we cannot completely eliminate commodity price exposure. We have a risk management policy that requires us to monitor the effectiveness of the hedges as well as other limitations on the maximum levels of inventory we may hold that is not hedged. In addition, our service contracts with refiners allow us to adjust the rates we charge for processing to maintain a balance between NaHS supply and demand.

•Our offshore Gulf of America crude oil and natural gas pipeline transportation and handling operations are located in a significant producing region with large-reservoir, long-lived crude oil and natural gas properties. We provide a suite of services, primarily to integrated and large independent energy companies who make intensive capital investments to develop numerous large-reservoir, long-lived crude oil and natural gas properties in one of the largest producing regions in the U.S., the deepwater Gulf of America.

•Our expertise and reputation for high performance standards and quality enable us to provide refiners with economic and proven services. Our extensive understanding of the sulfur removal process and crude oil refining can provide us with an advantage when evaluating new opportunities and/or markets.

•Some of our pipeline transportation and related assets are strategically located. Our pipelines are critical to the ongoing operations of our refiner and producer customers. In addition, a majority of our terminals are located in areas that can be accessed by pipeline, truck, rail or barge.

•Some of our onshore transportation and services assets are operationally flexible. Our portfolio of trucks, barges, pipelines, rail unloading facilities, tanks and terminals affords us flexibility within our existing regional footprint and provides us the capability to enter new markets and expand our customer relationships.

•Our marine transportation assets provide waterborne transportation throughout North America. We own and operate a fleet of barges and boats used to provide transportation services to both inland and offshore customers within a large North American geographic footprint. All of our vessels operate under the U.S. flag and are qualified for U.S. coastwise trade under the Jones Act.

•We have an experienced, knowledgeable and motivated executive management team with a proven track record. Our executive management team has a significant level of experience in the midstream sector. Certain of our executive management team members have worked in leadership roles at a number of large, successful public companies, including other publicly-traded partnerships. Through their equity interest in us and compensation package (including long term incentive awards based on available cash before reserves, leverage, sustainability and safety metrics), our executive management team is incentivized to create value.

Recent Developments

The following is a brief listing of developments since December 31, 2024. Additional information regarding most of these items may be found elsewhere in this report.

Sale of the Alkali Business and Related Transactions

On February 28, 2025, we completed the sale of the Alkali Business to an indirect affiliate of WE Soda Ltd for a gross purchase price of $1.425 billion. The sale generated proceeds of approximately $1.0 billion, which reflects the net proceeds after the assumption of $413.4 million of our then outstanding 5.875% senior secured notes due 2042 (the “Alkali senior secured notes”) by an indirect affiliate of WE Soda Ltd, and other purchase price adjustments. We used the proceeds to pay down the outstanding balance on our senior secured credit facility on February 28, 2025, purchase 7,416,196 Class A Convertible Preferred Units on March 6, 2025 at a purchase price of $35.40, and redeem the remaining $406.2 million of principal outstanding on the 8.000% senior unsecured notes due January 15, 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) on April 3, 2025.

On February 27, 2025, in connection with the sale of the Alkali Business discussed above, we entered into the Second Amendment to the Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. This amendment primarily provides for: (i) a reduction from $900 million to $800 million of total borrowing capacity under our senior secured credit facility; (ii) unlimited cash netting against our outstanding debt for purposes of our leverage ratio calculation if our credit facility is undrawn at the end of a reporting period, otherwise a maximum netting of $25 million is allowed; and (iii) an increased permitted investment basket under certain circumstances that will allow us to opportunistically purchase existing private or public securities across our capital structure. Our senior secured credit facility matures on September 1, 2028, subject to extension at our request for one additional year on up to two occasions and subject to certain conditions, provided that if more than $150 million of our 7.750%

senior unsecured notes due February 1, 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) remain outstanding as of November 2, 2027, the senior secured credit facility matures on such date.

Offshore Growth Capital Projects Completion

We previously entered into definitive agreements to provide transportation services for 100% of the crude oil production associated with two separate standalone deepwater developments (Shenandoah and Salamanca). In conjunction with these agreements, we committed to two offshore growth capital projects, which included expanding the current capacity of our 64% owned CHOPS Pipeline (the “CHOPS expansion”) and constructing a new 100% owned, approximately 105-mile, 20” diameter crude oil pipeline (the “SYNC Pipeline”) to connect the Shenandoah deepwater development to our existing asset footprint in the Gulf of America.

The CHOPS expansion included a complete overhaul of the Garden Banks 72 platform (“GB-72”) topside facilities, reconnection of the CHOPS Pipeline to the GB-72 platform, and the addition of pumps at both the High Island A5 (“HI-A5”) and GB-72 platforms to upgrade processing capabilities and increase throughput on the CHOPS Pipeline.

During 2025, we successfully finished the CHOPS expansion and SYNC Pipeline, which completed our major growth capital spending program. During the third quarter of 2025, we saw first production from the Shenandoah and Salamanca deepwater developments, and during the fourth quarter of 2025, Shenandoah throughput was well above the minimum volume commitments (“MVCs”) and volumes from Salamanca continued to ramp toward targeted production levels.

Market Update

Over the past several years, we have seen a heightened level of volatility in global markets and commodity prices driven by various events or circumstances outside of our control including, but not limited to, global pandemics, international military conflicts, geopolitical events and significant changes in economic policies. This volatility could negatively impact future prices for crude oil, natural gas, petroleum products and industrial products.

Management’s estimates are based on numerous assumptions about future operations and market conditions, which we believe to be reasonable, but are inherently uncertain. The uncertainties underlying our assumptions could cause our estimates to differ significantly from actual results, including with respect to the duration and severity of the lasting impacts of international conflicts and the result of any economic recession or depression that has occurred or may occur in the future as a result of or as it relates to changes in governmental policies (including with respect to tariffs or proposed tariffs, taxes, duties and similar matters affecting international trade) aimed at addressing inflation or other conditions or events, which could cause fluctuations in global economic conditions, including capital and credit markets. We will continue to monitor the current market environment and to the extent conditions deteriorate, we may identify triggering events that may require future evaluations of the recoverability of the carrying value of our long-lived assets, intangible assets and goodwill, which could result in impairment charges that could be material to our results of operations.

Although the ultimate impacts of these international conflicts, changes in governmental policies (including with respect to tariffs or proposed tariffs, taxes, duties and similar matters) and fluctuations in global economic conditions, including capital and credit markets, are still unknown at this time, we believe the fundamentals of our core businesses continue to remain strong and, considering the current industry environment and capital market behavior, we have continued our focus on deleveraging our balance sheet as further explained in “Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Description of Segments and Related Assets

We conduct our businesses through three operating segments: offshore pipeline transportation, marine transportation and onshore transportation and services. These segments are strategic business units that provide a variety of midstream energy-related services. Financial information with respect to each of our operating segments can be found in Note 14 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8. Below is a more detailed description of our operating segments and their related assets.

Offshore Pipeline Transportation

We conduct our offshore crude oil and natural gas pipeline transportation and handling operations in the Gulf of America through our offshore pipeline transportation segment, which focuses on providing a suite of services to integrated and large independent energy companies who make intensive capital investments (often in excess of a billion dollars) to develop large-reservoir, long-lived crude oil and natural gas properties located primarily in offshore Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi. The Gulf of America is one of the most active drilling and development regions in the U.S. representing approximately 14% of the crude oil production in the U.S. during 2025. Because the related pipelines and other infrastructure needed to develop the large-reservoir properties are capital intensive, we believe they are generally much less sensitive to short-term commodity price volatility, particularly once a project has been sanctioned or brought on-line.

We own interests in various offshore crude oil and natural gas pipeline systems, platforms and related infrastructure. Our interests in offshore crude oil pipeline systems that are currently operating (a number of which pipeline systems are substantial and/or strategically located) include approximately 1,536 miles of pipe with an aggregate design capacity of approximately 2,094 MMbls/day. For example, we own a 64% interest in the CHOPS Pipeline and a 64% interest in the Poseidon Pipeline, which are two of the largest crude oil pipelines (in terms of both length and design capacity) located in the Gulf of America. We also own 100% of the SEKCO Pipeline, which is a deepwater pipeline currently servicing the Lucius, Buckskin and Hadrian North fields as well as the Leon and Castille fields (through the Salamanca FPS), in the southern Keathley Canyon area of the Gulf of America and 100% of the SYNC Pipeline, which is a deepwater pipeline currently servicing the Shenandoah production field in the Walker Ridge area of the Gulf of America.

Our interests in operating offshore natural gas pipeline systems and related infrastructure include approximately 759 miles of pipe with an aggregate design capacity of approximately 2,200 MMcf/day. We also own an interest in two offshore hub platforms with an aggregate processing capacity of approximately 495 MMcf/day of natural gas and 123 MBbls/day of crude oil. Additionally, we own an interest in a number of junction and service platforms in the Gulf of America, which are used to (i) interconnect the offshore pipeline network; (ii) provide an efficient means to perform pipeline maintenance; and (iii) increase or direct the flow on our pipelines via pumps and measurement equipment.

We generate cash flows from our offshore pipelines from fees charged to customers or substantially similar arrangements that otherwise limit our direct exposure to changes in commodity prices.

We believe our offshore pipeline transportation segment is well positioned to participate in both the energy transition and lower carbon world as barrels produced from the Gulf of America are some of the least emission intensive barrels, from reservoir to refinery, of any barrel refined by Gulf Coast refineries (including shipping).

•Nautilus. The Nautilus System connects the Anaconda Gathering system and Manta Ray Offshore Gathering System to the Neptune natural gas processing plant located in south Louisiana.

Offshore Hub Platforms

Offshore Hub platforms are typically used to: (i) interconnect the offshore pipeline network; (ii) provide an efficient means to perform pipeline maintenance; (iii) locate compression, separation and production handling equipment and similar assets; and (iv) conduct drilling operations during the initial development phase of a crude oil and natural gas property. The results of operations from offshore platform services are primarily dependent upon the level of commodity charges and/or demand-type fees billable to customers. Revenue from commodity charges is based on a fee per unit of volume delivered to the platform (typically per MMcf of natural gas or per barrel of crude oil) multiplied by the total volume of each product delivered.

Demand-type fees are similar to firm capacity reservation agreements for a pipeline in that they are charged to a customer regardless of the volume the customer actually delivers to the platform. Contracts for platform services often include both demand-type fees and commodity charges, but demand-type fees generally expire after a contractually fixed period of time and in some instances may be subject to cancellation by customers.

•Marco Polo. The Marco Polo platform, which is located in Green Canyon Block 608, processes crude oil and natural gas from production fields located in the South Green Canyon area of the Gulf of America.

•East Cameron. The East Cameron 373 platform has the ability to process production from the Garden Banks and East Cameron areas of the Gulf of America.

Customers

Due to the intensive capital requirements of exploring for and developing crude oil properties in the deepwater regions of the Gulf of America, most of our offshore pipeline transportation customers are integrated energy companies and other large independent producers, who desire to have longer-term arrangements ensuring that their production can access the markets.

Usually, our offshore crude oil pipeline customers enter into buy-sell or other transportation arrangements, pursuant to which the pipeline acquires possession (and, sometimes, title) from its customer of the relevant production at a specified location (often a producer’s platform or at another interconnection) and redelivers possession (and title, if applicable) to such customer of an equivalent volume at one or more specified downstream locations (such as a refinery or an interconnection with another pipeline). Most of the production handled by our offshore pipelines is pursuant to life-of-lease commitments that include both firm and interruptible capacity arrangements.

Competition

Our principal competition in our offshore pipeline transportation business includes other crude oil and natural gas pipeline systems as well as producers who may elect to build or utilize their own production handling facilities. We compete for new production on the basis of geographic proximity to the source, cost of connection, available capacity, transportation rates and access to onshore markets. In addition, our access to future reserves will depend on our ability, or the producers’ ability, to fund the significant capital expenditures required to connect to the new sources of oil and natural gas production. In general, most of our offshore pipelines are not subject to regulatory rate-making authority, and the rates we charge for services are dependent on the quality of the service required by the customer and the amount and term of the reserve commitment by that customer.

Marine Transportation

Our marine transportation segment consists of (i) our inland marine fleet, which transports intermediate refined petroleum products, including asphalt, principally serving refineries and storage terminals along the Gulf Coast, Intracoastal Canal and western river systems of the U.S., principally along the Mississippi River and its tributaries; (ii) our offshore marine fleet, which transports crude oil and refined petroleum products, principally serving refineries and storage terminals along the Gulf Coast, Eastern Seaboard, Great Lakes and Caribbean; and (iii) our modern, double-hulled tanker, M/T American Phoenix. All of our vessels operate under the U.S. flag and are qualified for domestic trade under the Jones Act. The below table includes operational information relating to our marine transportation fleet:

Customers

Our marine customers are primarily refiners as well as large energy companies. In 2025, approximately 80% of the revenue we generated stemmed from contracts with refiners. Our M/T American Phoenix is currently operating under a charter with a refining customer along the Gulf Coast and Eastern Seaboard. We are a provider of transportation services for our customers and do not assume ownership of the products we transport. Marine transportation services are conducted under term contracts, some of which have renewal options for customers with whom we have traditionally had long-standing relationships, as well as spot contracts. Most of our customers have been our customers for many years and we generally anticipate continued relationships; however, there is no assurance that any individual contract will be renewed.

Our marine contracts for our inland and offshore fleets are agreements to transport cargo for a specific customer at a set rate (affreightment) or at a daily rate (time charter). The rate may or may not escalate during the term of the contract; however, the base rate generally remains constant and contracts often include escalation provisions to recover changes in specific costs such as fuel. Time charters, which insulate us from revenue fluctuations caused by weather and navigational delays and temporary market declines, represented over 95% of our marine transportation revenues under contracts during 2025. A term contract is an agreement with a customer to move cargo for a specific period of time, and may involve multiple trips to various destinations. A spot contract is an agreement with a customer to move cargo from a specific origin to a designated destination for a rate negotiated at the time the cargo movement takes place. Spot contract rates are at the current “market” rate and are subject to market volatility. During 2025, approximately 77% of our marine transportation revenues were from term contracts and 23% were from spot contracts.

Competition

Our competitors for the marine transportation of crude oil and heavy refined petroleum products are midstream MLPs with marine transportation divisions, refineries and other companies that are in the business of solely marine transportation operations. Competition among common marine carriers is based on a number of factors including proximity to production, refineries and connecting infrastructures, customer service, and transportation pricing.

Our marine transportation segment also competes with other modes of transporting crude oil and heavy refined petroleum products, including pipeline, rail and trucking operations. Each mode of transportation has different advantages and disadvantages, which often are fact and circumstance dependent. For example, without requiring longer-term economic commitments from shippers, marine and truck transportation can offer shippers much more flexibility to access numerous markets in multiple directions (i.e., pipelines tend to flow in a single direction and are geographically limited by their receipt and delivery points with other pipelines and facilities), and our marine transportation offers shippers certain economies of scale as compared to truck transportation. In addition, due to construction costs and timing considerations, marine and truck transportation can provide cost effective and immediate services to a nascent producing region, whereas new pipelines can be very expensive and time consuming to construct and may require shippers to make longer-term economic commitments, such as take-or-pay commitments. On the other hand, in mature developed areas serviced by extensive, multi-directional pipelines, with extensive connections to various markets, pipeline transportation may be preferred by shippers, especially if shippers are

willing to make longer-term economic commitments, such as take-or-pay commitments. Lastly, all of our inland marine transportation barges are asphalt capable and heated. This allows us to transport intermediate refined products that require heat, which other modes of transportation are not necessarily equipped to handle.

Onshore Transportation and Services

Through our onshore transportation and services segment, we provide various transportation and facilities services for crude oil and refined products as well as sulfur removal services (our sulfur services business).

We provide transportation and facilities services to Gulf Coast crude oil refiners and producers through a combination of purchasing, transporting, storing, blending and marketing of crude oil and refined products. In connection with these services, we utilize our increasingly integrated portfolio of logistical assets consisting of pipelines, trucks, tanks and terminals, barges and rail unloading facilities. The integrated nature of our onshore transportation and services assets is particularly evident in areas such as Louisiana and Texas.

Our crude oil onshore transportation and services operations are concentrated in Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida and Mississippi. We provide services which include the gathering of crude oil from producers at the wellhead, transporting crude oil by gathering line, truck and barge to pipeline injection points, transporting crude oil for our gathering and marketing operations and for other shippers on our pipelines and marketing crude oil to refiners. We also have the ability to transport refined products via pipeline. For certain of these services, we generate fee-based income related to the transportation services provided. In some cases, we also realize a profit equal to the difference between the price at which we sell the crude oil and the price at which we purchase the crude oil, less the associated costs of aggregation and transportation. The most substantial components of the costs we incur while aggregating crude oil and petroleum products are transportation related costs.

These operations help to ensure (among other things) a base supply source for our crude oil pipeline systems, refinery customers and other shippers while providing our producer customers with a market outlet for their production. By utilizing our network of pipelines, trucks, rail unloading facilities, barges, and tanks and terminals, we are able to provide transportation related services to, and in many cases back-to-back gathering and marketing arrangements with, crude oil refiners and producers. Additionally, our crude oil and petroleum product gathering and marketing expertise and knowledge base provide us with the ability to capitalize on opportunities that arise from time to time in our market areas. We gather and market approximately 18,785 Bbls/day (as of December 31, 2025) of crude oil, most of which is produced from large resource basins throughout Texas and the Gulf Coast. Our crude oil pipelines transport many of these barrels, as well as barrels for third party producers and refiners to which we charge fees for our transportation services. Given our network of terminals, we also have the ability to store crude oil during periods of contango (crude oil prices for future deliveries are higher than for current deliveries) for delivery in future months. When we purchase and store crude oil during periods of contango, we attempt to limit direct commodity price risk by simultaneously entering into a contract to sell the inventory in a future period, either with a counterparty or in the crude oil futures market. Unsold volumes are hedged with commodity derivatives to offset the remaining price risk.

Onshore Crude Oil Pipelines

Through our onshore pipeline systems and related assets we own and operate, we transport crude oil for our gathering and marketing operations and for other shippers pursuant to tariff rates regulated by the FERC, Louisiana Public Service Commission (“LPSC”) or the Railroad Commission of Texas (“TXRRC”). Accordingly, we offer transportation services to any shipper of crude oil, if the products tendered for transportation satisfy the conditions and specifications contained in the applicable tariff. Pipeline revenues are a function of the level of throughput and the particular point where the crude oil is injected into the pipeline and the delivery point. We also may earn revenue from pipeline loss allowance volumes. In exchange for bearing the risk of pipeline volumetric losses, we deduct volumetric pipeline loss allowances and crude oil quality deductions. Such allowances and deductions are offset by measurement gains and losses. When our actual volume losses are less than the related allowances and deductions, we recognize the difference as income and inventory available for sale valued at the market price for the crude oil.

The margins from our onshore crude oil pipeline operations are equal to the revenues we generate from regulated published tariffs and pipeline loss allowances less the fixed and variable costs of operating and maintaining our pipelines. Each of our onshore pipeline systems has available capacity to accommodate potential growth in volumes.

The four onshore common carrier crude oil pipeline systems we own and operate are the Texas System, the Louisiana System, the Jay System, and the Mississippi System.

•Texas System. Our Texas System takes delivery of crude oil volumes at various receipt points around Texas City (which includes the capability of receiving various Gulf of America pipeline volumes) for delivery to Webster, Texas, which ultimately connects to other crude oil pipelines. Our Texas System also transports crude oil from Hastings Junction (south of Houston, Texas) to several delivery points near Houston, Texas (including our Webster, Texas facility). We earn a tariff for our transportation services, with the tariff rate per barrel of crude oil varying with the distance from injection point to delivery point.

•Louisiana System. Our Louisiana System connects the Anchorage Tank Farm to our Port of Baton Rouge Terminal (which was built to service Exxon Mobil Corporation’s Baton Rouge refinery, which is one of the largest refinery complexes in North America, with more than 500,000 Bbls/day of refining capacity), allowing bidirectional flow of crude oil, intermediates and refined products between the Anchorage Tank Farm and this terminal via a dedicated crude oil pipeline and a dedicated intermediates pipeline. Our Louisiana system also transports crude oil bidirectionally between Port Hudson, our Baton Rouge Scenic Station rail unloading facility and the Anchorage Tank Farm. This pipeline system serves as a key asset in our integrated Baton Rouge area midstream infrastructure.

•Jay System. Our Jay System provides crude oil shippers access to refineries, pipelines and storage near Mobile, Alabama. That system also includes gathering connections, additional crude oil storage capacity of approximately 20,000 barrels in the field, an interconnect with our Walnut Hill rail facility and a delivery connection to a refinery in Alabama.

•Mississippi System. Our Mississippi System provides shippers of crude oil in Mississippi indirect access to refineries, pipelines, storage, terminals and other crude oil infrastructure located in the Eastern Gulf Coast.

Other Onshore Transportation and Services Operations

We own four operational crude oil rail unloading facilities located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Raceland, Louisiana; Walnut Hill, Florida; and Natchez, Mississippi which provide synergies to our existing asset footprint. We generally earn a fee for unloading railcars at these facilities. Three of these facilities, our Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Raceland, Louisiana, and Walnut Hill, Florida facilities are directly connected to our existing integrated crude oil pipeline and terminal infrastructure.

Within our onshore transportation and services business segment, we employ many types of logistically flexible assets. These assets include a suite of trucks and trailers, as well as terminals and other tankage with approximately 4.2 million barrels of leased and owned storage capacity in multiple locations along the Gulf Coast, accessible by pipeline, truck, rail or barge, in addition to tankage related to our crude oil pipelines, previously mentioned.

Sulfur Services

Our sulfur services business primarily (i) provides sulfur removal services whereby it processes high sulfur (or “sour”) gas streams generated from crude oil processing operations to remove sulfur at 11 refining or petrochemical processing facilities located mainly in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Montana and Utah; (ii) operates storage and transportation assets in relation to those services; and (iii) sells NaHS and NaOH (also known as caustic soda) to large industrial and commercial companies. To provide sulfur removal services, we apply our proprietary technology, which uses large quantities of caustic soda (the primary raw material used in our process) to act as a scrubbing agent under prescribed temperature and pressure to remove sulfur. Sulfur removal in a refinery is a key factor in optimizing the production of refined products such as gasoline, diesel and aviation fuel. Our sulfur removal technology returns a clean (sulfur-free) hydrocarbon stream to the refinery for further processing into refined products, and simultaneously produces NaHS. The resultant, NaHS, constitutes the sole consideration we receive for our sulfur removal services. A majority of the NaHS we receive is sourced from refineries owned and operated by large companies, including Phillips 66, CITGO, HF Sinclair, Calumet and Ergon.

Our 11 sulfur removal services contracts have an average remaining term of approximately two years. The timing upon which these contracts renew vary based upon location and terms specified within each specific contract.

Our sulfur services footprint includes NaHS and caustic soda terminals in the Gulf Coast, the Southwest, Montana, Utah and British Columbia. We sell and deliver (via railcars, ships, barges and trucks) NaHS and caustic soda to over 100 customers. We are one of the largest marketers of NaHS in North and South America. By minimizing our costs through utilization of our own logistical assets and leased storage sites, we believe we have a competitive advantage over other suppliers of NaHS. NaHS is used in the specialty chemicals business (plastic additives, dyes and personal care products), in the pulp and paper business, and in connection with mining operations (separating copper from molybdenum and in the mining of nickel and gold) as well as bauxite refining (aluminum). NaHS has also gained acceptance in environmental applications, including waste treatment programs requiring stabilization and reduction of heavy and toxic metals and flue gas scrubbing. Additionally, NaHS can be used for removing hair from hides at the beginning of the tannery process.

Caustic soda is used in many of the same industries as NaHS. Many applications require both chemicals for use in the same process. For example, caustic soda can increase the yields in bauxite refining, pulp manufacturing and in the recovery of copper, gold and nickel. Caustic soda is also used as a cleaning agent (when combined with water and heated) for process equipment and storage tanks at refineries.

Customers

We provide transportation and facilities services for, as well as gather from and market crude oil and refined products to, numerous refiners and producers.

As part of our sulfur services business, we sell NaHS to customers in a variety of industries, with the largest customers involved in mining of base metals, primarily copper and molybdenum, and the production of pulp and paper. We sell to customers in the copper mining industry in the western U.S., Canada and Mexico. We also export NaHS to South America for sale to mining customers in Peru and Chile. Many of the industries that our NaHS customers are in (such as copper mining and the pulp and paper industry) participate in global markets for their products. As a result, this creates an indirect exposure for NaHS to global demand for the end products of our customers.

We sell caustic soda to many of the same customers who purchase NaHS from us as well as to some of the refineries in which we operate.

Our onshore transportation and services segment is not dependent on any single or small group of customers. The loss of any one customer would not have a material, adverse effect on us.

Competition

Our competitors for the provision of transportation and facilities services include other regional and local midstream service providers and companies who may have significant market share in the respective areas in which they operate. Competition among common carrier pipelines is based primarily on posted tariffs, quality of customer service and proximity to refineries, production and connecting pipelines. We believe that high capital costs, tariff regulation and the cost of acquiring rights-of-way make it unlikely that other competing pipeline systems, comparable in size and scope to our onshore pipelines, will be built in the same geographic areas in the near future. In addition, as the majority of our onshore pipelines directly serve refineries, we believe that these pipelines are not subject to the same competitive pressures as those tied directly to crude oil production.

Our competitors for the supply of NaHS consist primarily of parties who produce NaHS as a by-product of or an alternative to other sulfur derivative products, including fertilizers, pesticides, other agricultural products, plastic additives and lubricants. Typically our competitors for the supply of NaHS have only one location and they do not have the logistical infrastructure that we have to supply customers. These competitors often reduce NaHS production when demand for their alternative sulfur derivatives is high and increase NaHS production when demand for these alternatives is low. Also, they tend to supply less when prices and demand for elemental sulfur are higher and supply more NaHS when the price of elemental sulfur falls.

Demand for NaHS faces competition from alternative sulfidity management mediums such as sulfidic caustic, emulsified sulfur, salt cake and flake NaHS. Changes in the value, supply and/or demand of these alternative products can impact the volume and/or value of our NaHS sold.

Typically, our competitors for sulfur removal services include refineries themselves through the use of their sulfur removal processes.

Our competitors for sales of caustic soda include manufacturers of caustic soda. These competitors supply caustic soda to our sulfur services operations and support us in our third-party caustic soda sales. By utilizing our storage capabilities and having access to transportation assets, we sell caustic soda to third parties who gain efficiencies from acquiring both NaHS and caustic soda from one source.

Credit Exposure

Our portfolio of accounts receivable is generally comprised in large part of obligations of refiners, integrated and large independent oil and natural gas producers, and mining and other industrial companies that purchase NaHS, most of which have stable payment histories. We believe that any credit risk posed by a concentration of customers in a specific industry is offset by the creditworthiness of our specific customer base in the context of our specific transactions as well as other factors, including the strategic nature of certain of our assets and relationships and our credit procedures. The credit risk related to exchange-traded contracts is limited due to the daily cash settlement procedures and other exchange related requirements.

When we market crude oil, petroleum products, and NaHS and provide transportation and other services, we must determine the amount, if any, of the line of credit we will extend to any given customer. We have established procedures to manage our credit exposure, including initial credit approvals, credit limits, collateral requirements and rights of offset. Letters of credit, prepayments and guarantees are also utilized to limit credit risk to ensure that our established credit criteria are met. We use similar procedures to manage our exposure to our customers in the offshore pipeline transportation and marine transportation segments.

Some of our largest customers include Exxon Mobil Corporation, MV Purchasing, BP, Shell, and Phillips 66.

Human Capital

We believe our employees are our most important asset and the cornerstone of our organization. We take steps to attract and retain talented people to safely operate our assets, foster customer relationships, and achieve our long-term goals. We are committed to employee retention and we encourage our employees to maintain long-term careers with us. Human capital measures and objectives which we focus on in managing our business include safety, employee compensation and benefits, diversity and inclusion, and employee development.

Employees

To carry out our business activities, we employed 1,061 employees at December 31, 2025. We consider our relationship with our employees to be in good standing.

Safety

Safety is one of our guiding principles and it is our intention to create and sustain a workplace free from recognized safety and health hazards. We have implemented safety programs and management practices to promote a culture of safety, which include policies, training, procedures, audits, inspections, incident evaluations, data analysis, reporting and communications. We also established annual safety and health targets for total recordable injury and illness rates, and tied a portion of our management compensation to safety related goals to emphasize the importance of safety at the Company.

Employee Compensation and Benefits

Our compensation programs are integrated with our overall business strategies and management processes to incentivize performance, maximize returns and build shareholder value. We participate in market surveys as well as work with consultants to benchmark our compensation and benefits programs to help us offer competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high-performing employees.

Furthermore, to attract and meet the needs of our workforce, we offer a comprehensive and affordable benefits program that includes medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and disability protection, along with a generous retirement savings plan, including up to six percent matching. Our benefits package options may vary depending on the type of employee and date of hire. Additionally, we continuously look for ways to improve employee work-life balance and the well-being of our employees and their families.

Employee Development

Our success as a company is measured by the successful performance of our employees in their respective roles. Thus, it is our policy to properly train and equip each employee to perform his or her job functions safely and in compliance with all laws, regulations and internal procedures.

We develop our employees through performance management processes, regular coaching and supervisory and leadership training while also offering a tuition reimbursement program. Our annual performance management cycle enables managers and employees to collaborate to set performance goals and development objectives that align to business objectives. We also provide in-house health and safety training and emergency response training. Employee attendance at external workshops, conferences and other training events is also encouraged.

Regulation

Pipeline Rate and Access Regulation

The rates and the terms and conditions of service of our interstate common carrier pipeline operations are subject to regulation by FERC under the Interstate Commerce Act, or ICA. Under the ICA, rates must be “just and reasonable,” and must not be unduly discriminatory or confer any undue preference on any shipper. FERC regulations require that oil pipeline rates and terms and conditions of service for regulated pipelines be filed with FERC and posted publicly.

Effective January 1, 1995, FERC promulgated rules simplifying and streamlining the ratemaking process. Previously established rates were “grandfathered,” limiting the challenges that could be made to existing tariff rates. Increases from grandfathered rates of interstate oil pipelines are currently regulated by FERC primarily through an index methodology, whereby a pipeline is allowed to change its rates based on the year-to-year change in an index. Under FERC regulations, we are able to change our rates within prescribed ceiling levels that are tied to the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods (“PPI-FG”). Rate increases made pursuant to the index are presumed to be just and reasonable. They will be subject to protest, but such protests must show that the rate increase resulting from application of the index is substantially in excess of the applicable pipeline’s increase in costs. We may be required to lower our rates if the ceiling level decreases below our existing rates in a given year. The FERC indexing is subject to review and revision every five years.

On December 17, 2020, the FERC issued a final rule setting the index for the five-year period beginning July 1, 2021, and ending on June 30, 2026, at PPI-FG plus 0.78%. On January 20, 2022, the FERC granted a rehearing of certain aspects of the final rule and revised the index level to PPI-FG minus 0.21% effective March 1, 2022 through June 30, 2026. The FERC ordered pipelines with filed rates that exceed their index ceiling levels based on PPI-FG minus 0.21% to file rate reductions effective March 1, 2022. On review, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, in Liquid Energy Pipeline Association v. FERC, 109 F.4th 543 (D.C. Cir. 2024), vacated FERC’s rehearing order that adopted the PPI-FG minus 0.21% and ordered FERC to reinstate its prior order with a PPI-FG plus 0.78%. In September 2024, FERC reinstated the PPI-FG plus 0.78% and subsequently initiated a rulemaking in Docket No. RM25-2, proposing to amend the PPI-FG for the five-year period that began on July 1, 2021, and adopt a revised index level of PPI-FG minus 0.21%. On November 20, 2025, the FERC issued an order terminating the rulemaking proceeding in Docket No. RM25-2 without amending the index level, with the result that the PPI-FG plus 0.78% remains in place for the remainder of the five-year review period ending on June 30, 2026. A petition for review of this FERC order has been filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

FERC also issued a separate order on November 20, 2025, in Docket Nos. RM93-11-003, RM20-14-003 and RM20-24-004, in which it granted pipeline remedial relief for the period from March 1, 2022, the effective date of the PPI-FG minus 0.21%, to September 17, 2024, the date on which FERC reinstated the PPI-FG plus 0.78%. FERC allowed pipelines that charged the maximum rates permitted for shipments made during the period of March 1, 2022 to September 17, 2024 to apply the PP-FG plus 0.78% to those shipments and recover amounts directly from shippers. Requests for rehearing of the FERC’s order have been filed with FERC, and a petition for review of the FERC’s order has been filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. A motion for stay of the FERC’s order has also been filed with FERC.

In addition to the index methodology, FERC allows for rate changes under three other methods—cost-of-service, competitive market showings and agreements between shippers and the oil pipeline company that the rate is acceptable, or Settlement Rates. The pipeline tariff rates on our Mississippi, Jay, Texas and Louisiana systems are either rates that are subject to change under the index methodology or Settlement Rates. None of our tariffs have been subjected to a protest or complaint by any shipper or other interested party.

Our offshore pipelines, with the exception of our Eugene Island pipeline and HIOS, are neither interstate nor common carrier pipelines. However, these pipelines are subject to federal regulation under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, which requires all pipelines operating on or across the outer continental shelf to provide nondiscriminatory transportation service.

Our intrastate common carrier pipeline operations in Texas are subject to regulation by the TXRRC. The applicable Texas statutes require that pipeline rates and practices be reasonable and non-discriminatory and that pipeline rates provide a fair return on the aggregate value of the property of a common carrier, after providing reasonable allowance for depreciation and other factors and for reasonable operating expenses. Although no assurance can be given that the tariffs we charge would ultimately be upheld if challenged, we believe that the tariffs now in effect can be sustained.

Marine Regulations

The operation of towboats, tugboats, barges, vessels and marine equipment create maritime obligations involving property, personnel and cargo and are subject to regulation by the U.S. Coast Guard, or USCG, the Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, the Department of Homeland Security, or DHS, federal laws, state laws and certain international conventions under General Maritime Law. These obligations can create risks which are varied and include, among other things, the risk of collision and allision, which may precipitate claims for personal injury, cargo, contract, pollution, third-party claims and property damages to vessels and facilities. Routine towage operations can also create risk of personal injury under the Jones Act and General Maritime Law, cargo claims involving the quality of a product and delivery, terminal claims, contractual claims and regulatory issues. Federal regulations also require that all tank barges engaged in the transportation of oil and petroleum in the U.S. be double hulled. All of our barges are double-hulled.

All of our barges are inspected by the USCG and carry certificates of inspection. All of our towboats and tugboats are certificated by the USCG. Most of our vessels are built to American Bureau of Shipping, or ABS, classification standards and in some instances are inspected periodically by ABS to maintain the vessels in class standards. The crews we employ aboard vessels, including captains, pilots, engineers, tankermen and ordinary seamen, are documented by the USCG.

We are required by various governmental agencies to obtain licenses, certificates and permits for our vessels depending upon such factors as the cargo transported, the waters in which the vessels operate and other factors. We are of the opinion that our vessels have obtained and can maintain all required licenses, certificates and permits required by such governmental agencies for the foreseeable future.

Jones Act: The Jones Act is a federal law that restricts maritime transportation between locations in the U.S. to vessels built and registered in the U.S. and owned and manned by U.S. citizens. We are responsible for monitoring the ownership of our subsidiary that engages in maritime transportation and for taking any remedial action necessary to ensure that no violation of the Jones Act ownership restrictions occurs. Jones Act requirements significantly increase operating costs of U.S.-flag vessel operations compared to foreign-flag vessel operations. Further, the USCG and ABS maintain the most stringent regime of vessel inspection in the world, which tends to result in higher regulatory compliance costs for U.S.-flag operators than for owners of vessels registered under foreign flags or flags of convenience. The Jones Act and General Maritime Law also provide damage remedies for crew members injured in the service of the vessel arising from employer negligence or vessel unseaworthiness.

Merchant Marine Act of 1936: The Merchant Marine Act of 1936 is a federal law providing that, upon proclamation by the President of the U.S. of a national emergency or a threat to the national security, the U.S. Secretary of Transportation may requisition or purchase any vessel or other watercraft owned by U.S. citizens (including us, provided that we are considered a U.S. citizen for this purpose). If one of our tow boats or barges were purchased or requisitioned by the U.S. government under this law, we would be entitled to be paid the fair market value of the vessel in the case of a purchase or, in the case of a requisition, the fair market value of charter hire. However, if one of our tow boats is requisitioned or purchased and its associated barge or barges are left idle, we would not be entitled to receive any compensation for the lost revenues resulting from the idled barges. We also would not be entitled to be compensated for any consequential damages we suffer as a result of the requisition or purchase of any of our tow boats or barges.

Security Requirements: The Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002 requires, among other things, submission to and approval by the USCG of vessel and waterfront facility security plans, or VSP. Our VSP’s have been approved and we are operating in compliance with the plans for all of its vessels and that are subject to the requirements, whether engaged in domestic or foreign trade.

Railcar Regulation

We operate a number of railcar unloading facilities and lease a significant number of railcars. Our railcar operations are subject to the regulatory jurisdiction of the Federal Railroad Administration of the DOT, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or OSHA, as well as other federal and state regulatory agencies. We believe that our railcar operations are in substantial compliance with all existing federal, state and local regulations.

DOT and OSHA have jurisdiction under several federal statutes over a number of safety and health aspects of rail operations, including the transportation of hazardous materials. State agencies regulate some aspects of rail operations with respect to health and safety in areas not otherwise preempted by federal law.

Environmental Regulations

General - We are subject to stringent federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection. These laws and regulations may (i) require the acquisition of and compliance with permits for regulated activities, (ii) limit or prohibit operations on environmentally sensitive lands such as wetlands or wilderness area, seismically sensitive areas, or areas inhabited by endangered or threatened species, (iii) result in capital expenditures to limit or prevent emissions or discharges, and (iv) place burdensome restrictions on our operations, including the management and disposal of wastes. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, including the assessment of monetary penalties, the imposition of investigatory and remedial obligations, the suspension or revocation of necessary permits, licenses and authorizations, the requirement that additional pollution controls be installed and the issuance of orders enjoining future operations or imposing additional compliance requirements. Changes in environmental laws and regulations occur frequently, typically increasing in stringency through time, and any changes that result in more stringent and costly operating restrictions, emission control, waste handling, disposal, cleanup and other environmental requirements have the potential to have a material adverse effect on our operations. While we believe that we are in substantial compliance with current environmental laws and regulations and that continued compliance with existing requirements will not materially affect us, there is no assurance that this trend will continue in the future. Revised or new additional regulations that result in increased compliance costs or additional operating restrictions, particularly if those costs are not fully recoverable from our customers, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Hazardous Substances and Waste Handling - The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, as amended, or CERCLA, also known as the “Superfund” law, and analogous state laws impose liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons. These persons include current owners and operators of the site where a release of hazardous substances occurred, prior owners or operators that owned or operated the site at the time of the release of hazardous substances, and companies that disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances found at the site. We currently own or lease, and have in the past owned, operated or leased, properties that have been in use for many years with the gathering and transportation of hydrocarbons including crude oil and other activities that could cause an environmental impact. Persons deemed “responsible persons” under CERCLA may be subject to strict and joint and several liability for the costs of removing or remediating previously disposed wastes (including wastes disposed of or released by prior owners or operators) or property contamination (including groundwater contamination), for damages to the environment, and for the costs of certain health studies. CERCLA also authorizes the EPA and, in some instances, third parties to act in response to threats to the public health or the environment and to seek to recover the costs they incur from the responsible classes of persons. It is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by hazardous substances or other pollutants released into the environment.

We also may incur liability under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, or RCRA, and analogous state laws which impose requirements and also liability relating to the management and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. While RCRA regulates both solid and hazardous wastes, it imposes strict requirements on the generation, storage, treatment, transportation and disposal of hazardous wastes. Certain petroleum production wastes are excluded from RCRA’s hazardous waste regulations. However, it is possible that these wastes, which could include wastes currently generated during our operations, will in the future be designated as “hazardous wastes” and, therefore, be subject to more rigorous and costly disposal requirements. Indeed, legislation has been proposed from time to time in Congress to re-categorize certain crude oil and natural gas exploration and production wastes as “hazardous wastes.” Also, in December 2016, the EPA agreed in a consent decree to review its regulation of oil and gas waste. However, in April 2019, the EPA concluded that revisions to the federal regulations for the management of oil and gas waste are not necessary at this time. Any such changes in the laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our capital expenditures and operating expenses.

We believe that we are in substantial compliance with the requirements of CERCLA, RCRA and related state and local laws and regulations, and that we hold all necessary and up-to-date permits, registrations and other authorizations required under such laws and regulations. Although we believe that the current costs of managing our wastes as they are presently

classified are reflected in our budget, any legislative or regulatory reclassification of oil and natural gas exploration and production wastes could increase our costs to manage and dispose of such wastes.

Water Discharges - The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended, also known as the “Clean Water Act,” and analogous state laws impose restrictions and strict controls regarding the unauthorized discharge of pollutants, including crude oil, into navigable waters of the U.S., as well as state waters. Permits must be obtained to discharge pollutants into these waters. Spill prevention, control and countermeasure plan requirements under federal law require appropriate containment berms and similar structures to help prevent the contamination of navigable waters in the event of a petroleum hydrocarbon tank spill, rupture or leak. The Clean Water Act and regulations implemented thereunder also prohibit the discharge of dredge and fill material into regulated waters, including jurisdictional wetlands, unless authorized by an appropriately issued permit.

The scope of waters regulated under the Clean Water Act has fluctuated in recent years. On June 29, 2015, the EPA and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, or Corps, jointly promulgated final rules expanding the scope of waters protected under the Clean Water Act. However, on October 22, 2019, the agencies repealed the 2015 rules, and then, on April 21, 2020, the EPA and the Corps published a final rule replacing the 2015 rules, and significantly reducing the waters subject to federal regulation under the Clean Water Act. On August 30, 2021, a federal court struck down the replacement rule and, on January 18, 2023, the EPA and the Corps published a final rule that would restore water protections that were in place prior to 2015. However, on May 25, 2023, the Supreme Court issued an opinion substantially narrowing the scope of “waters of the United States” protected by the Clean Water Act. On September 8, 2023, the EPA and the Corps published a final conforming rule. On November 20, 2025, the U.S. Department of the Army and EPA jointly proposed a revision to the “waters of the United States” definition, following the Supreme Court’s 2023 Sackett v. EPA decision, which would further narrow the scope of activities subject to federal regulation under the Clean Water Act. However, to the extent the EPA and the Corps broadly interpret their jurisdiction and expand the range of properties subject to the Clean Water Act's jurisdiction, including under future administrations, we could face increased costs and delays with respect to obtaining permits for dredge and fill activities in wetland areas.

Also, on June 28, 2016, the EPA published a final rule prohibiting the discharge of wastewater from onshore unconventional oil and natural gas extraction facilities to publicly owned wastewater treatment plants. In addition, the Clean Water Act and analogous state laws require individual permits or coverage under general permits for discharges of storm water runoff from certain types of facilities. These permits may require us to monitor and sample the storm water runoff from certain of our facilities. Some states also maintain groundwater protection programs that require permits for discharges or operations that may impact groundwater conditions.

The Oil Pollution Act is the primary federal law for oil spill liability. The Oil Pollution Act contains numerous requirements relating to the prevention of and response to petroleum releases into waters of the United States, including the requirement that operators of offshore facilities and certain onshore facilities near or crossing waterways must develop and maintain facility response contingency plans and maintain certain significant levels of financial assurance to cover potential environmental cleanup and restoration costs. The Oil Pollution Act subjects owners of facilities to strict liability that, in some circumstances, may be joint and several for all containment and cleanup costs and certain other damages arising from a release, including, but not limited to, the costs of responding to a release of oil to surface waters.

Noncompliance with the Clean Water Act or the Oil Pollution Act may result in substantial administrative, civil and criminal penalties, as well as injunctive obligations. We believe we are in material compliance with each of these requirements.

Air Emissions - The Federal Clean Air Act, or CAA, as amended, and analogous state and local laws and regulations restrict the emission of air pollutants, and impose permit requirements and other obligations. Regulated emissions occur as a result of our operations, including the handling or storage of crude oil and other petroleum products. Both federal and state laws impose substantial penalties for violation of these applicable requirements. Accordingly, our failure to comply with these requirements could subject us to monetary penalties, injunctions, conditions or restrictions on operations, revocation or suspension of necessary permits and, potentially, criminal enforcement actions.

On August 16, 2012, the EPA published final regulations under the CAA that establish new air emission controls for oil and natural gas production and natural gas processing operations. Specifically, the EPA’s rule package includes New Source Performance standards to address emissions of sulfur dioxide and volatile organic compounds and a separate set of emission standards to address hazardous air pollutants frequently associated with oil and natural gas production and processing activities. The final rules seek to achieve a 95% reduction in volatile organic compounds emitted by requiring the use of reduced emission completions or “green completions” on all hydraulically-fractured wells constructed or refractured after January 1, 2015. The rules also establish specific new requirements regarding emissions from compressors, controllers, dehydrators, storage tanks and other production equipment. The EPA received numerous requests for reconsideration of these rules from both industry and the environmental community, and court challenges to the rules were also filed. In response, the EPA has issued, and will likely continue to issue, revised rules responsive to some of the requests for reconsideration. In particular, on May 12, 2016, the EPA amended its regulations to impose new standards for methane and volatile organic compounds emissions for certain new,

modified, and reconstructed equipment, processes, and activities across the oil and natural gas sector. However, on August 13, 2020, in response to an executive order by President Trump during his first term to review and revise unduly burdensome regulations, the EPA amended the 2012 and 2016 New Source Performance standards to ease regulatory burdens, including rescinding standards applicable to transmission or storage segments and eliminating methane requirements altogether. On June 30, 2021, former President Biden signed into law a joint resolution of Congress disapproving the 2020 amendments (with the exception of some technical changes) thereby reinstating the 2012 and 2016 New Source Performance standards. The EPA expects owners and operators of regulated sources to take “immediate steps” to comply with these standards. Additionally, on December 2, 2023, the EPA announced a final rule that would expand and strengthen emission reduction requirements for both new and existing sources in the oil and natural gas industry by requiring increased monitoring of fugitive emissions, imposing new requirements for pneumatic controllers and tank batteries, and prohibiting venting of natural gas in certain situations. On April 17, 2023, the EPA agreed in a consent decree to issue a proposed rule by December 10, 2024 that either revises its emission standards for hazardous air pollutants from oil and natural gas production activities or determines that no revision is necessary. These laws and regulations, as well as any future laws and their implementing regulations, may require us to obtain pre-approval for the expansion or modification of existing facilities or the construction of new facilities expected to produce air emissions, impose stringent air permit requirements, or mandate the use of specific equipment or technologies to control emissions. On March 8, 2024, the EPA published a final rule revising the New Source Performance standards regulating GHG and volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from oil and gas sources.

National Environmental Policy Act - Under the National Environmental Policy Act, or NEPA, a federal agency, commonly in conjunction with a current permittee or applicant, may be required to prepare an environmental assessment or a detailed environmental impact statement before taking any major action, including issuing a permit for a pipeline extension or addition that would affect the quality of the environment. Should an environmental impact statement or environmental assessment be required for any proposed pipeline extensions or additions, NEPA may prevent or delay construction or alter the proposed location, design or method of construction.

Endangered Species Act - The federal Endangered Species Act and analogous state statutes restrict activities that may adversely affect endangered and threatened species or their habitat. Similar protections are offered to migratory birds under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. The designation of previously unidentified endangered or threatened species in areas and/or the designation of critical habitats or other protected lands where we operate could cause us to incur additional costs or become subject to operating delays, restrictions or bans.

Climate Change - In December 2009, the EPA published its findings that emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and other greenhouse gases (“GHGs”) present an endangerment to human health and the environment because emissions of such gases are, according to the EPA, contributing to the warming of the earth’s atmosphere and other climatic changes. Accordingly, in recent years, federal, state, and local governments have taken steps to reduce emissions of GHGs. On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”), which, along with the Investment in Infrastructure and Jobs Act, provides billions of dollars in incentives for the development of renewable energy, clean hydrogen, clean fuels, electric vehicles, investments in advanced biofuels and supporting infrastructure and carbon capture and sequestration. These incentives could accelerate the transition of the economy away from the use of fossil fuels towards lower or zero-carbon emissions alternatives, which could decrease demand for, and in turn the prices of, the oil and natural gas that we store, transport and sell and adversely impact our business. However, certain provisions of the IRA, including clean energy tax credits, were repealed by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which was signed into law on July 4, 2025. In August 2025, the EPA published a proposed rule to rescind its “endangerment” finding regarding GHGs.

The EPA has also finalized a series of GHG monitoring, reporting and emission control rules for the oil and natural gas industry, and almost half of the states, either individually or through multi-state regional initiatives, have taken legal measures to reduce GHG emissions, primarily through the planned development of GHG emission inventories and/or GHG cap-and-trade programs. In addition, states have imposed increasingly stringent requirements related to the venting or flaring of gas during oil and gas operations. The net effect of this regulatory regime is to impose increasing costs on the combustion of carbon-based fuels such as crude oil, refined petroleum products and natural gas. Our compliance with any future legislation or regulation of GHGs, if adopted, may result in materially increased compliance and operating costs.

In addition, in December 2015, the United States participated in the 21st Conference of the Parties (COP-21) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Paris, France. The resulting Paris Agreement calls for the parties to undertake “ambitious efforts” to limit the average global temperature, and to conserve and enhance sinks and reservoirs of GHGs. The Agreement went into effect on November 4, 2016. On April 21, 2021, the United States announced that it was setting an economy-wide target of reducing its GHG emissions by 50-52 percent below 2005 levels in 2030. In November 2021, in connection with the 26th Conference of the Parties (COP-26) in Glasgow, Scotland, the United States and other world leaders made further commitments to reduce GHG emissions, including reducing global methane emissions by at least 30% by 2030 from 2020 levels. More than 150 countries have now signed on to this pledge. The urgency to reduce GHG emissions was

further emphasized in the 27th Conference of the Parties (COP-27) in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt. At the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP-28) in the United Arab Emirates, world leaders agreed to transition away from fossil fuels in a just, orderly and equitable manner and to triple renewables and double energy efficiency globally by 2030. Also at COP-28, 50 companies accounting for 40 percent of global oil production committed to eliminating their methane emissions by 2050 under the Oil and Gas Decarbonization Charter. These companies also committed to ending flaring by 2030. Furthermore, many state and local leaders have stated their intent to intensify efforts to support the international climate commitments. The United States withdrew from the Paris Agreement and any similar commitments under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change on January 20, 2025.

Legislative efforts or related implementation regulations that regulate or restrict emissions of GHGs in areas that we conduct business could adversely affect the demand for the products that we transport, store and distribute and, depending on the particular program adopted, could increase our costs to operate and maintain our facilities by requiring that we, among other things, measure and report our emissions, install new emission controls on our facilities, acquire allowances to authorize our GHG emissions, pay any fees or taxes related to our GHG emissions and administer and manage a GHG emissions program. We may be unable to include some or all of such increased costs in the rates charged by our pipelines or other facilities, and any such recovery may depend on events beyond our control, including the outcome of future rate proceedings before the FERC or state regulatory agencies and the provisions of any final legislation or implementing regulations. Any GHG emissions legislation or regulatory programs applicable to power plants or refineries could also increase the cost of consuming, and thereby adversely affect demand for the crude oil and natural gas that we produce. Consequently, legislation and regulatory programs to reduce GHG emissions could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. It is not possible at this time to predict with any accuracy the structure or outcome of any future legislative or regulatory efforts to address such emissions or the eventual costs to us of compliance.

Furthermore, there have been efforts in recent years to influence the investment community, including investment advisors and certain sovereign wealth, pension and endowment funds promoting divestment of fossil fuel equities and pressuring lenders to limit funding to companies engaged in the extraction of fossil fuel reserves. Such environmental activism and initiatives aimed at limiting climate change and reducing air pollution could interfere with our business activities, operations and ability to access capital. In addition, claims have been made against certain energy companies alleging that GHG emissions from crude oil and natural gas operations constitute a public nuisance under federal and/or state common law. As a result, private individuals or public entities may seek to enforce environmental laws and regulations against us and could allege personal injury, property damages, or other liabilities. While our business is not a party to any such litigation, we could be named in actions making similar allegations. An unfavorable ruling in any such case could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Moreover, climate change may be associated with extreme weather conditions such as more intense hurricanes, thunderstorms, tornadoes and snow or ice storms, as well as rising sea levels. Another possible consequence of climate change is increased volatility in seasonal temperatures. Some studies indicate that climate change could cause some areas to experience temperatures substantially hotter or colder than their historical averages. Extreme weather conditions can interfere with our production and increase our costs and damage resulting from extreme weather may not be fully insured. However, at this time, we are unable to determine the extent to which climate change may lead to increased storm or weather hazards affecting our operations.

Safety and Security Regulations

Our crude oil pipelines are subject to construction, installation, operation and safety regulation by the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”) Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, or PHMSA, and various other federal, state and local agencies under various provisions of Title 49 of the United States Code and comparable state statutes. Congress has enacted several pipeline safety acts over the years. The Pipeline Safety, Regulatory Certainty, and Job Creation Act of 2011 (the “Pipeline Safety Act”) provides for regulation of the nation’s pipelines, penalties for violations of pipeline safety rules, and other DOT matters. The Pipeline Safety Act currently provides for significant financial penalties involving non-compliance with DOT regulations. In addition, the Pipeline Safety Act includes additional safety requirements for newly constructed pipelines. In June 2016, Congress approved new pipeline safety legislation, the “Protecting Our Infrastructure of Pipelines and Enhancing Safety Act of 2016,” or the 2016 PIPES Act, which provides the PHMSA with additional authority to address imminent hazards by imposing emergency restrictions, prohibitions, and safety measures on owners and operators of gas or hazardous liquids pipeline facilities. In December 2020, the “Protecting Our Infrastructure of Pipelines and Enhancing Safety Act of 2020,” or the 2020 PIPES Act, was signed into law. The 2020 PIPES Act extends the PHMSA’s statutory mandate through 2023. It continues the legislative mandates that were established in the 2016 PIPES Act and creates new regulatory mandates, including, among other things: (i) requiring regulations prescribing the applicability of pipeline safety requirements to idled natural gas transmission and hazardous liquids pipelines; (ii) the creation of new leak detection and repair programs that impact certain natural gas gathering, transmission, and distribution lines; and (iii) necessitating updates to gas pipeline and hazardous liquid pipeline facility inspection and maintenance plans.

The PHMSA administers pipeline safety requirements for natural gas and hazardous liquid pipelines pursuant to detailed regulations set forth in 49 C.F.R. Parts 190 to 199. These regulations, among other things, address pipeline integrity management and pipeline operator qualification rules and specify how companies should assess, evaluate, validate and maintain the integrity of pipeline segments that, in the event of a release, could impact High Consequence Areas, or HCAs, which include populated areas, unusually sensitive areas and commercially navigable waterways. We are subject to the PHMSA Integrity Management, or IM, regulations, which require that we perform baseline assessments of all pipelines that could affect an HCA, and to continually assess all pipelines at specified intervals to periodically evaluate the integrity of each pipeline segment that could affect an HCA. The integrity of these pipelines must be assessed by internal inspection, pressure test, or equivalent alternative new technology. We must also abide by an Integrity Management Plan, or IMP, that details the risk assessment factors, the overall risk rating for each segment of pipe, a schedule for completing the integrity assessment, the methods to assess pipeline integrity, and an explanation of the assessment methods selected. No assurance can be given that the cost of testing and the required rehabilitation identified will not be material costs to us that may not be fully recoverable by tariff increases.

The PHMSA has issued a number of rulemakings in response to the Pipeline Safety Act, the 2016 PIPES Act, and the 2020 PIPES Act, as well as prior statutes, concerning pipeline safety that impact our pipeline facilities. Over the past several years, the PHMSA adopted additional regulations for natural gas and hazardous liquid pipeline safety. In particular, on October 1, 2019, the PHMSA published final rules to expand its IM requirements and impose new pressure testing requirements on regulated pipelines, including certain segments outside HCAs that became effective on July 1, 2020. Among other things, the rules require all hazardous liquid pipelines in or affecting an HCA to be capable of accommodating in-line inspection tools within the next 20 years. In addition, the final rule imposes inspection requirements on pipelines in areas affected by extreme weather events and natural disasters, such as hurricanes, landslides, floods, earthquakes, or other similar events that are likely to damage infrastructure. The rules also extend reporting requirements to certain previously unregulated hazardous liquid gravity and rural gathering lines. Many of the requirements will be phased in over an extended compliance schedule. Also, on November 15, 2021, the PHMSA published a final rule extending reporting requirements to all onshore gas gathering operators and establishing a set of minimum safety requirements for certain gas gathering pipelines with large diameters and high operating pressures. On December 27, 2021, the PHMSA published an Interim Final Rule that designates the Great Lakes, coastal beaches, and marine coastal waters as “Unusually Sensitive Areas,” extending more stringent IMP requirements to hazardous liquid pipelines near such areas. Additional final rules were announced in 2022, including a final rule regarding the installation of rupture-mitigation valves, published on April 8, 2022. Further, on August 24, 2022, the PHMSA published a final rule strengthening integrity management requirements for onshore gas transmission lines, bolstering corrosion control standards and repair criteria, and imposing new requirements for inspections after extreme weather events. On January 17, 2025, PHMSA issued a final rule, to be effective 180 days after the date of publication in the Federal Register, to improve public safety and reduce methane and other flammable toxic or corrosive gases emissions from new and existing offshore gas gathering pipelines, regulated onshore gas pipelines, underground natural gas storage facilities, and liquefied natural gas facilities by modifying the leak detection performance standard to accommodate commercially available advanced technology used for detecting leaks, improving specificity for grading leaks and changing the leak repair timelines and leak survey intervals inside buildings.

Significant expenses could be incurred in the future if additional safety measures are required or if safety standards are raised and exceed the current pipeline control system capabilities.

We have developed a Risk Management Plan required by the PHMSA as part of our IMP. This plan is intended to minimize the offsite consequences of catastrophic spills. As part of this program, we have developed a mapping program. This mapping program identified HCAs and unusually sensitive areas along the pipeline right-of-ways in addition to mapping of shorelines to characterize the potential impact of a spill of crude oil on waterways.

Our crude oil, refined products and soda and sulfur services operations are also subject to the requirements of OSHA and comparable state statutes. Various other federal and state regulations require that we train all operations employees in Hazardous Communication (“HAZCOM”) and disclose information about the hazardous materials used in our operations. Certain information must be reported to employees, government agencies and local citizens upon request.

In most cases, states are responsible for enforcing the federal regulations and more stringent state pipeline regulations and inspection with respect to intrastate hazardous liquids pipelines, including crude oil and natural gas pipelines. In practice, states vary considerably in their authority and capacity to address pipeline safety. The Railroad Commission recently updated its pipeline safety regulations consistent with PHMSA requirements, effective September 13, 2021. We do not anticipate any significant problems in complying with applicable state laws and regulations in those states in which we operate.

Our trucking operations are licensed to perform both intrastate and interstate motor carrier services. As a motor carrier, we are subject to certain safety regulations issued by the DOT. The trucking regulations cover, among other things, driver operations, log book maintenance, truck manifest preparations, safety placard placement on the trucks and trailer vehicles, drug and alcohol testing, operation and equipment safety and many other aspects of truck operations. We are also subject to OSHA with respect to our trucking operations.

The USCG regulates occupational health standards related to our marine operations. Shore-side operations are subject to the regulations of OSHA and comparable state statutes. The Maritime Transportation Security Act requires, among other things, submission to and approval of the USCG of vessel security plans.

Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the U.S. Government has issued numerous warnings that energy assets could be the subject of future terrorist attacks. We have instituted security measures and procedures in conformity with federal guidance. We will institute, as appropriate, additional security measures or procedures indicated by the federal government. None of these measures or procedures should be construed as a guarantee that our assets are protected in the event of a terrorist attack.

On May 27, 2021, the Department of Homeland Security’s Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) announced Security Directive Pipeline-2021-01 that requires us, as a critical pipeline owner, to report confirmed and potential cybersecurity incidents to the DHS Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (“CISA”) and to designate a Cybersecurity Coordinator. It also requires us and the third-party operators of our assets to review current practices as well as to identify any gaps and related remediation measures to address cyber-related risks and report the results to TSA and CISA within 30 days. We designated a Cybersecurity Coordinator, developed a plan to comply with mandatory reporting timeframes and completed the vulnerability assessment required under this directive in 2021. On July 20, 2021, the TSA issued a second Security Directive. Then, on July 27, 2022, a third TSA-issued Security Directive took effect. We have evaluated the impacts of the TSA security directives, including as these directives continue to be updated and renewed, on our pipeline business and have made significant progress in compliance. See “Compliance with and changes in cybersecurity requirements has a cost impact on our business, and failure to comply with such laws and regulations could have an impact on our assets, costs, revenue generation and growth opportunities.”
