Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]  
Equity Method Investments
Equity Method Investments

We have two joint ventures that have constructed separate crude oil pipeline systems and related ancillary assets, which are serving third parties and subsidiaries of Delek. We own a 50% membership interest in the entity formed with an affiliate of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. ("CP LLC") to operate one of these pipeline systems and a 33% membership interest in the entity formed with Rangeland Energy II, LLC ("Rangeland RIO") to operate the other pipeline system.

The Partnership's investments in these two entities were financed through a combination of cash from operations and borrowings under the DKL Revolver.  As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Partnership's investment balance in these joint ventures was $106.4 million and $106.5 million, respectively.

In February 2018, the Partnership and an affiliate of Green Plains Partners LP ("Green Plains") entered into a joint venture engaging in the light products terminalling business. The companies formed DKGP Energy Terminals, LLC ("DKGP Energy"). The Partnership and Green Plains each own a 50% membership interest in DKGP Energy. DKGP Energy signed a membership interest purchase agreement (the "Membership Interest Purchase Agreement") to acquire two light products terminals located in Caddo Mills, Texas and North Little Rock, Arkansas from an affiliate of American Midstream Partners, L.P. ("American Midstream"), subject to certain closing conditions and regulatory approvals (the "DKGP Transaction"). The Membership Interest Purchase Agreement expired on August 1, 2018 pursuant to its terms (primarily due to delays in receiving federal regulatory approval for the acquisition), and the contemplated DKGP Transaction terminated (the "DKGP Termination"). As a result of the DKGP Termination, the contemplated contribution of certain of the Partnership's terminals to DKGP Energy, in connection with the DKGP Transaction, terminated. At this time the Partnership and Green Plains do not have any further transaction or development plans with respect to DKGP Energy.

We do not consolidate any part of the assets or liabilities or operating results of our equity method investees. Our share of net income or loss of the investees will increase or decrease, as applicable, the carrying value of our investments in unconsolidated affiliates. With respect to CP LLC and Rangeland RIO, we determined that these entities do not represent variable interest entities and consolidation is not required. We have the ability to exercise significant influence over each of these joint ventures through our participation in the management committees, which make all significant decisions. However, since all significant decisions require the consent of the other investor(s) without regard to economic interest, we have determined that we have joint control and have applied the equity method of accounting. Our investment in these joint ventures is reflected in our pipelines and transportation segment.
