<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Martin Midstream Partners Reports on Hurricane Preparations</B>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Kilgore, Texas, September&nbsp;14, 2004 &#151; Martin Midstream Partners L. P. (Nasdaq:
MMLP) announced today that it has initiated standard hurricane preparations and
procedures as a result of the potential damaging weather conditions caused by
approaching Hurricane Ivan. In particular, the Company&#146;s shore based marine
terminals in Louisiana have been closed, and personnel have been evacuated.
The Company&#146;s movable marine assets that are in Hurricane Ivan&#146;s projected
path, including tugs, pushboats and barges, have been relocated to protected
waters. This activity will naturally result in a temporary disruption to
MMLP&#146;s terminalling and marine segments but is not expected to have a prolonged
effect. In addition, CF Martin Sulphur, L.P., in which the Company owns a
non-controlling interest and whose primary customers are based in central
Florida, is also experiencing a disruption of normal business activity with
this hurricane similar to the disruption it experienced with Hurricanes Charley
and Frances.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Ruben S. Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP
LLC, the general partner of MMLP stated, &#147;our primary concern is to make sure
our personnel are removed from harm&#146;s way. In addition, we have taken the
necessary steps and precautions to protect the Company&#146;s assets located along
the forecasted path of the hurricane.&#148;

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Martin Midstream Partners provides terminalling, marine transportation,
distribution and midstream logistical services for producers and suppliers of
hydrocarbon products and by-products, lubricants and other liquids. The
Company also manufactures and markets sulfur-based fertilizers and related
products and owns an unconsolidated non-controlling 49.5% limited partnership
interest in CF Martin Sulphur L.P., which operates a sulfur storage and
transportation business. MMLP operates primarily in the Gulf Coast region of
the United States.

website at <u>http://www.martinmidstream.com</u>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Forward-Looking Statements

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Statements about Martin Midstream Partners&#146; outlook and all other statements in
this release other than historical facts are forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These
forward-looking statements and all references to financial estimates rely on a
number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of
uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside its control, which
could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements. While
MMLP believes that the assumptions concerning future events are reasonable, it
cautions that there are inherent difficulties in anticipating or predicting
certain important factors. A discussion of these factors, including risks and
uncertainties, is set forth in the Company&#146;s annual and quarterly reports filed
from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Martin Midstream
Partners disclaims any intention or obligation to revise any forward-looking
statements, including financial estimates, whether as a result of new
information, future events, or otherwise.
