Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]
Equity Method Investments Disclosure [Text Block]	In March 2015, the Partnership, through its indirect wholly owned subsidiary DKL Caddo, LLC ("DKL Caddo") became a member of Caddo Pipeline, LLC ("CP LLC") by entering into an amended and restated limited liability company agreement (the “Caddo LLC Agreement”) with Plains Pipeline, L.P., an affiliate of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. ("Plains"). CP LLC was formed to plan, develop, construct, own, operate and maintain a pipeline system and ancillary assets originating near Longview, Texas and extending to Shreveport, Louisiana (the "Caddo Pipeline System"). Pursuant to the terms of the Caddo LLC Agreement, DKL Caddo and Plains each own a 50% membership interest in CP LLC. Pursuant to separate agreements, Plains will have primary responsibility for the construction of the Caddo Pipeline System, and, upon its completion, Plains will also have primary day-to-day responsibility for its operations. In March 2015, the Partnership, through its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, DKL RIO, LLC ("DKL RIO"), became a member of Rangeland RIO Pipeline, LLC ("Rangeland RIO") by entering into an amended and restated limited liability company agreement (the "Rangeland LLC Agreement") with Rangeland Energy II, LLC ("Rangeland"). Rangeland RIO was formed to develop, construct, operate and maintain a crude oil pipeline extending from Loving County, Texas, to Midland, Texas (the "RIO Pipeline").

Rangeland will have primary responsibility for the construction of the RIO Pipeline, and, upon its completion, Rangeland will also have primary day-to-day responsibility for its operations. The total projected investment in these two entities is approximately $96.0 million and is expected be financed through a combination of cash from operations and borrowings under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
