(11) Insurance Claims

  • Nitrogen Fertilizer Incident

        On September 30, 2010, the nitrogen fertilizer plant experienced an interruption in operations due to a rupture of a high-pressure UAN vessel. All operations at the nitrogen fertilizer facility were immediately shut down. No one was injured in the incident. Repairs to the facility as a result of the rupture were substantially complete as of December 31, 2010.

        Total gross costs incurred as of June 30, 2012 due to the incident were approximately $11.5 million for repairs and maintenance and other associated costs. Approximately $0.0 and $0.2 million of these costs were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Approximately $0.1 million and $0.6 million of these costs were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The repairs and maintenance costs incurred are included in direct operating expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). Of the gross costs incurred, approximately $4.5 million was capitalized in 2010, approximately $0.1 million was capitalized in 2011 and approximately $0.1 million was capitalized in 2012.

        As of June 30, 2012, approximately $7.0 million of insurance proceeds have been received under the property damage insurance related to this incident. This amount was received prior to December 31, 2011. The recording of the insurance proceeds resulted in a reduction of direct operating expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) when received.

        The insurance policies also provide coverage for interruption to the business, including lost profits, and reimbursement for other expenses and costs the Company has incurred relating to the damage and losses suffered for business interruption. This coverage, however, only applies to losses incurred after a business interruption of 45 days. Partial business interruption claims were filed during 2011 resulting in receipt of proceeds totaling $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Of this amount, approximately $2.9 million was reported for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The proceeds associated with the business interruption claims are included on the Consolidated Statements of Operations under Insurance recovery—business interruption.

  • Coffeyville Refinery Incidents

        On December 28, 2010 the Coffeyville crude oil refinery experienced an equipment malfunction and small fire in connection with its fluid catalytic cracking unit ("FCCU"), which led to reduced crude oil throughput. The refinery returned to full operations on January 26, 2011. This interruption adversely impacted the production of refined products for the petroleum business in the first quarter of 2011. Total gross repair and other costs recorded related to the incident as of December 31, 2011 were approximately $8.0 million. No costs have been recorded in 2012. The Company maintains property damage insurance policies which have an associated deductible of $2.5 million. The Company anticipates that substantially all of the costs in excess of the deductible should be covered by insurance. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had received $4.0 million of insurance proceeds and has recorded an insurance receivable related to the incident of approximately $1.2 million as of June 30, 2012. The insurance receivable is included in other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Total gross repair and other costs related to the incident, as of June 30, 2012, were approximately $3.2 million. No costs have been recorded in 2012. The Company anticipates that substantially all of the costs in excess of the $2.5 million deductible should be covered by insurance under its property damage insurance policy.
