Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Commitments MVP Terminal We have a 50 percent membership interest in MVP Terminalling, LLC (MVP), a Delaware limited liability company formed in September 2017 with a subsidiary of Magellan Midstream Partners LP (Magellan), to construct, own, and operate the Magellan Valero Pasadena marine terminal (MVP Terminal) located adjacent to the Houston Ship Channel in Pasadena, Texas. Construction of phases one and two of the project began in 2017 with a total estimated cost of approximately $840 million, of which we have committed to contribute 50 percent (approximately $420 million). The project could expand up to four phases with a total project cost of approximately $1.4 billion if warranted by additional demand and agreed to by Magellan and us. Since inception, we have contributed $362 million to MVP, of which $115 million was contributed during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Concurrent with the formation of MVP, we entered into a terminaling agreement with MVP to utilize the MVP Terminal upon completion of phase two, which is expected to occur in late 2019. The terminaling agreement has an initial term of 12 years with two five-year automatic renewals, and year-to-year renewals thereafter. Prior to our adoption of Topic 842 as described in Note 1, we were considered the accounting owner of the MVP Terminal during the construction period due to our membership interest in MVP and because we determined that the terminaling agreement was a capital lease. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2018, we had recorded an asset of $539 million in property, plant, and equipment representing 100 percent of the construction costs incurred by MVP, as well as capitalized interest incurred by us, and a long-term liability of $292 million payable to Magellan. The amounts recorded for the portion of the construction costs associated with the payable to Magellan were noncash investing and financing items, respectively. On January 1, 2019, as a result of our adoption of Topic 842, we derecognized the asset and liability related to MVP discussed above and recorded our equity investment in MVP of $247 million, which is included in “deferred charges and other assets, net.” The amounts derecognized are noncash investing and financing items, respectively. As of September 30, 2019, our equity investment in MVP was $362 million. Central Texas Pipeline We committed to a 40 percent undivided interest in a project with a subsidiary of Magellan to jointly build a 135-mile, 20-inch refined petroleum products pipeline with a capacity of up to 150,000 barrels per day from Houston to Hearne, Texas. The pipeline was placed in service in the third quarter of 2019. The cost of our 40 percent undivided interest in the pipeline was $160 million, of which $65 million was spent during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
