Major Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk
Major Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk

Marathon Petroleum Corporation and its subsidiaries accounted for 19%, 18% and 17% of our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. ExxonMobil Corporation and its subsidiaries accounted for 11%, 14% and 13% of our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Phillips 66 Company and its subsidiaries accounted for 11% of our revenues in each of the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. No other customers accounted for 10% or more of our revenues during any of the three years ended December 31, 2017. The majority of revenues from these customers pertain to our supply and logistics operations. The sales to these customers occur at multiple locations and we believe that the loss of these customers would have only a short-term impact on our operating results. There is risk, however, that we would not be able to identify and access a replacement market at comparable margins.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. Our accounts receivable are primarily from purchasers and shippers of crude oil and, to a lesser extent, purchasers of NGL and natural gas. This industry concentration has the potential to impact our overall exposure to credit risk in that the customers may be similarly affected by changes in economic, industry or other conditions. We review credit exposure and financial information of our counterparties and generally require letters of credit for receivables from customers that are not considered creditworthy, unless the credit risk can otherwise be reduced. See Note 2 for additional discussion of our accounts receivable and our review of credit exposure.
