Sunoco LP is a Dallas-based energy infrastructure company that distributes motor fuels and operates midstream assets across four segments: Fuel Distribution, Pipeline Systems, Refinery, and Terminals. Its Fuel Distribution segment supplies motor fuels, propane, and lubricating oil to third-party dealers, distributors, and retail locations, while also leasing real estate and offering non-fuel services such as credit card processing, car washes, lottery, and food service. The Pipeline Systems segment runs an integrated network of refined product, crude oil, and ammonia pipelines and terminals, and the Terminals segment operates transmix processing facilities and refined product terminals that provide blending, additive injection, and filtering services.
Sunoco LP is structured as a master limited partnership (MLP), a common organizational form in the U.S. midstream energy sector that provides pass-through tax treatment and is typically used by pipeline, terminal, and fuel distribution operators. Transmix processing-the separation and re-refining of mixed fuel grades that accumulate in shared pipelines-is a specialized midstream service that adds incremental margin beyond basic transportation and storage. The partnership was founded in 1960, was previously known as Susser Petroleum Partners LP, and adopted its current name in 2014.
