Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Data Segment Data
We aggregate our operating segments into four reportable segments: (i) pipelines and transportation; (ii) wholesale marketing and terminalling; (iii) 3 Bear operations; and (iv) investment in pipeline joint ventures. Based on the manner in which the Partnership’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is currently reviewing the financial and operating information and metrics of the business of and for the three months ended June 30, 2022, inclusive of the 3 Bear Acquisition, the acquisition of 3 Bear resulted in a new operating segment as of and for the one month from the Acquisition Date through June 30, 2022, which is deemed to be reportable based on our quantitative assessment. While this new operating segment has certain common characteristics with our pipelines and transportation reportable segment, it also involves new operations (including natural gas gathering, processing and transportation as well as water disposal and recycling) and operates in new geographic location. Additionally, the Acquisition occurred in the last month of the quarter, and integration efforts continue to be in process as of June 30, 2022. For these reasons, the 3 Bear operating segment has been presented as a separate reportable segment as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2022. As we continue to integrate the 3 Bear operations in the coming quarters and refine how we manage those operations in the context of our overall business, it is possible that segment presentation could change.
Our operating segments adhere to the accounting policies used for our consolidated financial statements. Our operating segments are managed separately because each segment requires different industry knowledge, technology and marketing strategies. Decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of operating performance are made based on this segmentation. Management
measures the operating performance of each of its reportable segments based on segment contribution margin, with the exception of investments in pipeline joint ventures segment, which is measured based on net income. Segment contribution margin is defined as net revenues less cost of materials and other and operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization. The following is a summary of business segment operating performance as measured by contribution margin, with the exception of investments in pipeline joint ventures segment, which is measured based on equity method income (loss), for the periods indicated (in thousands):
