BP Midstream Partners LP (either individually or together with its subsidiaries, as the context requires, the “Partnership”) is a Delaware limited partnership formed on May 22, 2017 by BP Pipelines (North America) Inc. (“BP Pipelines”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of BP p.l.c. (“BP”), a “foreign private issuer” within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

BP Midstream Partners LP is a master limited partnership formed by BP Pipelines to own, operate, develop and acquire pipelines and other midstream assets. The Partnership's assets consist of interests in entities that own crude oil, natural gas, refined products and diluent pipelines and refined product terminals serving as key infrastructure for BP and other customers to transport onshore crude oil production to BP’s refinery in Whiting, Indiana (the “Whiting Refinery”) and offshore crude oil and natural gas production to key refining markets and trading and distribution hubs. Certain assets deliver refined products and diluent from the Whiting Refinery and other U.S. supply hubs to major demand centers.

As of June 30, 2020,2021, the Partnership's assets consisted of the following:

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 (the "Partnership's 20192020 10-K").

Partnership financial position, results of operations and cash flows consist of consolidated BP Midstream Partners LP activities and balances. All intercompany accounts and transactions within the financial statements have been eliminated for all periods presented.

Subordinated Unit Conversion

On February 11, 2021, we paid a cash distribution of $0.3475 per limited partner unit to unitholders of record on January 28, 2021, for the three months ended December 31, 2020. Following payment of the distribution, the board of directors of our General Partner confirmed and approved that the financial tests required for conversion of our subordinated units had been met under the terms of the partnership agreement. As a result, on February 12, 2021, all of the Partnership's subordinated units were converted into common units on a one-for-one basis and the subordination period was terminated. Refer to Note 8 - Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit for additional information.

As a result of the completion of this conversion event, common units are presented on a combined basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity as of and for the period ended June 30, 2021. Prior periods have been reclassified in the comparative periods to conform to current period presentation in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes to accounting policies as disclosed in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Partnership's 20192020 10-K.

2. Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue over time or at a point in time, depending on the nature of the performance obligations contained in the respective contract with customers. A performance obligation is our unit of account and it represents a promise in a contract to transfer goods or services to the customer. The contract transaction price, which is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, is allocated to each performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied. The following is an overview of our significant revenue stream, including a description of the respective performance obligations and related methods of revenue recognition.

Pipeline Transportation

Revenue from pipeline transportation is comprised of tariffs and fees associated with the transportation of liquid petroleum products, generally at published tariffs and in certain instances, revenue from MVC contracts at negotiated rates. Tariff revenue is recognized either at the point of delivery or at the point of receipt, pursuant to specifications outlined in the respective tariffs. We record revenue for crude oil, refined products and diluent transportation during the period in which they are earned (i.e., either physical delivery of product has taken place or the services designated in the contract have been performed). Partnership services are typically billed on a monthly basis, and we generally do not offer extended payment terms. We accrue revenue based on services rendered but not billed for that accounting month.

Billings to BP Products North America Inc. ("BP Products") for deficiency volumes under its MVCs, if any, are recorded as deferred revenuerevenues and credits, a contract liability, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, as BP Products has the right to make up the deficiency volumes within the measurement period specified by the agreements. Deferred revenue under these arrangements is recognized into revenue once it is deemed remote that the customer will meet its required annual MVC. If the

customer does satisfy its minimum volume commitmentMVC by shipping the deficiency volumes within the same calendar year, it may receive a refund of excess payments.

We did not recognize deficiency revenue under the throughput and deficiency agreements with BP Products for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. We recognized $6.0 million of deficiency revenue under the throughput and deficiency agreements with BP Products for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. We recognized no deficiency revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Allowance Oil

The tariff for crude oil transportation at BP2 includes a fixed loss allowance (“FLA”). An FLA factor per barrel, a fixed percentage, is a separate fee that is considered a part of the transaction price under the applicable crude oil tariff to cover evaporation and other losses in transit. The amount of revenue recognized is a product of the quantity transported, the applicable FLA factor and the settlement price during the month the product is transported.

As of June 30, 2021 we have executed a Capital Recovery Fee Agreement with BP Products and commenced construction of an onshore capacity increase project. The agreement calls for fees of $6.0 million per year (payable in equal monthly installments) over a four-year period, beginning when the increased capacity becomes available for use.

Contract Balances

Contract assets and contract liabilities are the result of timing differences between revenue recognition, billings and cash collections. Contract liabilities or deferred revenue and credits primarily relate to consideration received from customers for temporary deficiency quantities under minimum volume contracts that the customer has the right to make up in a future period, which we subsequently recognize as revenue or amounts we credit back to the customer in a future period.

Share-based Compensation

Our Parent operates share option plans and equity-settled employee share plans. These plans typically have a three-year performance or restricted period during which the units accrue net notional dividends, which are treated as having been reinvested. Leaving employment will normally preclude the conversion of units into shares, but special arrangements apply for participants that leave for qualifying reasons.

Share-based compensation related to the employees of our Parent who provide services to us is charged to the Partnership pursuant to the terms of the omnibus agreement. The Partnership also issued its own unit-based compensation under a long-term incentive plan. SeeRefer to Note 11 - Unit-Based Compensation.Compensation.

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests consist of the 35% ownership interest in Mardi Gras held by our Parent at June 30, 20202021 and 2019.2020. Net income attributable to non-controlling interests is the product of the non-controlling interests ownership percentage and the net income of Mardi Gras. We report Non-controlling interests as a separate component of equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and Net income attributable to non-controlling interests on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Earnings in excess of distributions are allocated to the limited partners based on their respective percentage interests. Payments made to the Partnership’s unitholders are determined in relation to actual distributions declared and are not based on the net income allocations used in the calculation of net income per unit.

In addition to the common and subordinated units, the Partnership also identified the incentive distribution rights ("IDRs") currently held by the General Partner as a participating security and uses the two-class method when calculating the net income per unit applicable to limited partners that is based on the weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the period.

Following the payment of the distribution on February 11, 2021, the financial tests required for the conversion of our subordinated units were satisfied under the terms of our partnership agreement. As a result, on February 12, 2021, all of the Partnership's subordinated units were converted into common units on a one-for-one basis and the subordination period was terminated. Following the conversion, we continue to use the two-class method when calculating the net income per unit applicable to limited partners. The remaining classes of participating securities are common units and IDRs.

When calculating basic earnings per unit under the two-class method for a master limited partnership, net income for the current reporting period is reduced by the amount of available cash that will be distributed to the General Partner and limited

On April 15, 2021, the Partnership declared a cash distribution of $0.3475 per limited partner unit to unitholders of record on April 29, 2021, for the three months ended March 31, 2021. All of the subordinated units were converted into common units on February 12, 2021.

9. Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, and accruedother current liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

The carrying value of borrowings under the term loan as of June 30, 2020,2021 and the credit facility as of December 31, 2019,2020 approximate fair value as the interest rates are reflective of market rates.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

The Partnership is a party to ongoing legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. For each outstanding legal matter, if any, we will evaluate the merits of the case, exposure to the matter, possible legal or settlement strategies and the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome. While the outcome of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe the results of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Indemnification

Under anour omnibus agreement, our Parent will indemnify us for certain environmental liabilities, litigation and other matters attributable to the ownership or operation of our assets prior to Partnershipour ownership. For the purposes of determining the indemnified amount of any loss suffered or incurred by the Partnership, the Partnership’s ownership of 28.5% in Mars, and 65% in Mardi Gras, and Mardi Gras’ 56% ownership in Caesar, 53% ownership in Cleopatra, 65% ownership in Endymion and 65% ownership in Proteus will be considered. Indemnification for certain identified environmental liabilities is subject to a cap of $25 million without any deductible. Other matters covered by the omnibus agreement are subject to a cap of $15$15.0 million and an

breach of their representations, warranties or covenants contained in the Interest Purchase Agreement, subject to certain limitations and survival periods. This agreement covers the Partnership’s ownership of 22.7% in Ursa and 25% in KM Phoenix.

Environmental Matters

We are subject to federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations. We record provisions for environmental liabilities based on management’s best estimates, using all information that is available at the time. In making environmental liability estimations, we consider the material effect of environmental compliance, pending legal actions against us and potential third-party liability claims. Often, as the remediation evaluation and effort progress, additional information is obtained, requiring revisions to estimated costs. We are indemnified by our Parent under the omnibus agreement against environmental cleanup costs for incidents that occurred prior to Partnership ownership. Revisions to the estimated environmental liability for conditions that are not indemnified under the omnibus agreement with our Parent are reflected in the Partnership's condensed consolidated statements of operations in the year in which they are probable and reasonably estimable.

We accrued $3.6$3.5 million and $3.7$3.4 million for environmental liabilities at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019,2020, respectively. These balances are broken down on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as follows:

12. Variable Interest Entity

Mardi Gras is a Delaware limited liability company and a pass-through entity for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes. Mardi Gras holds equity interests in the Mardi Gras Joint Ventures and accounts for them as equity method investments. Mardi Gras does not have any other operations or activities. The remaining interests in each of the Mardi Gras Joint Ventures are owned by unaffiliated third-party investors. Each of the Mardi Gras Joint Ventures is managed by its respective management committee, and decisions made by these management committees require approval of two or more members that are not affiliates with equity interest holdings meeting certain thresholds.

We have 65% ownership interest and 100% managing member interest in Mardi Gras. The remainder of the economic interest in Mardi Gras was held 34% by BP Pipelines and 1% by an affiliate of BP. Through our managing member interest in Mardi Gras, we have the right to vote 100% of Mardi Gras’ interest in each of the Mardi Gras Joint Ventures. We determined that Mardi Gras is a variable interest entity because (i) we hold disproportional voting rights as compared to our economic interest in Mardi Gras, and (ii) substantially all of Mardi Gras’ activities involve or are conducted on behalf of our Parent, which holds disproportionately few voting rights.

The managing member interest in Mardi Gras provides us with the unilateral power to direct the activities of Mardi Gras that most significantly impact its economic performance including the right to exercise the voting rights of BP for each of the Mardi Gras Joint Ventures. In addition, our obligations to absorb the expected losses of and the right to receive the residual returns from Mardi Gras relative to our economic ownership is significant to Mardi Gras. As a result, we are the primary beneficiary of Mardi Gras and consolidate Mardi Gras.

We have the obligation to provide financial support to Mardi Gras if all members unanimously determine that additional capital contributions are necessary to fund Mardi Gras’ operations. The assets of Mardi Gras can only be used to satisfy its own

13. Subsequent Events

We have evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Based on this evaluation, it was determined that no subsequent events occurred, other than the distributionitems noted below, that require recognition or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Distribution

On July 15, 2020,2021, we declared a cash distribution of $0.3475 per limited partner unit to unitholders of record on July 30, 2020,29, 2021, for the three months ended June 30, 2020.2021. The distribution, combined with distributions to our General Partner, will be paid on August 13, 2020,12, 2021, and will total $37.6 million, with $16.6 million distributed to our non-affiliated common unitholders, and $21.0 million, including $1.2 million for IDRs distributed to our Parent in respect of its ownership of our common units subordinated units and IDRs.

Take Private Proposal

On August 4, 2021, the board of directors of our General Partner received a non-binding preliminary proposal letter from BP Pipelines, through its wholly-owned subsidiary BP Midstream Partners Holdings LLC, to acquire all of our outstanding common units not already owned by BP Pipelines or its affiliates at a to be determined fixed exchange ratio at a value of $13.01 per each issued and outstanding publicly held common unit of the Partnership payable in newly-issued American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") of BP p.l.c. (the "Proposal"). The exchange ratio will be determined based on a 30-day volume weighted average closing price of ADRs of BP p.l.c. as of the day immediately preceding the signing of a merger agreement. The board of directors will appoint a conflicts committee to review, evaluate and negotiate the Proposal.

The proposed transaction is subject to a number of contingencies, including the approval of the conflicts committee of the board of directors, and the satisfaction of any conditions to the consummation of a transaction set forth in any definitive agreement concerning the transaction. There can be no assurance that definitive documentation will be executed or that any transaction will materialize on the terms described above or at all.

The term “our Parent” refers to BP Pipelines (North America), Inc. (“BP Pipelines”), any entity that wholly owns BP Pipelines, indirectly or directly, including BP America Inc. and BP p.l.c. (“BP”), and any entity that is wholly owned by the aforementioned entities, excluding BP Midstream Partners LP.

The following management discussion and analysis of financial conditions and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and accompanying notes in this quarterly report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 (the "Partnership's 20192020 10-K"). All amounts are in millions of dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Partnership Overview

We are a fee-based, growth-oriented master limited partnership formed by BP Pipelines, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of BP, to own, operate, develop and acquire pipelines and other midstream assets. For additional information regarding the assets and interests owned by the Partnership, assets consistrefer to Note 1 - Business and Basis of interests in entities that own crude oil, natural gas, refined products and diluent pipelines and refined product terminals serving as key infrastructure for BP and other customers to transport onshore crude oil production to BP’s Whiting Refinery and offshore crude oil and natural gas production to key refining markets and trading and distribution hubs. Certain Partnership assets deliver refined products and diluent from the Whiting Refinery and other U.S. supply hubs to major demand centers.



As of June 30, 2020, the Partnership's assets consisted of the following: 
PresentationBP Two Pipeline Company LLC, which owns the BP#2 crude oil pipeline system (“BP2”).
BP River Rouge Pipeline Company LLC, which owns the Whiting to River Rouge refined products pipeline system (“River Rouge”).
BP D-B Pipeline Company LLC, which owns the Diamondback diluent pipeline system (“Diamondback”). BP2, River Rouge, and Diamondback together are referred to as the "Wholly Owned Assets".
28.5% ownership interest in Mars Oil Pipeline Company, LLC (“Mars”), which owns a major corridor crude oil pipeline system in the Gulf of Mexico.

22.7% ownership interest in Ursa Oil Pipeline Company, LLC ("Ursa").
25% ownership interest in KM Phoenix Holdings, LLC ("KM Phoenix").

The Partnership generates a majority of revenue by charging fees for the transportation of crude oil, refined products and diluent through pipelines under long-term agreements with minimum volume commitments (“MVC”). We do not engage in the marketing and trading of any commodities. All operations are conducted in the United States, and all long-lived assets are located in the United States. Partnership operations consist of one reportable segment.

Certain Partnership businesses are subject to regulation by various authorities including, but not limited to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC"). Regulatory bodies exercise statutory authority over matters such as common carrier tariffs, construction, rates and ratemaking and agreements with customers.

Business Environment, Market Conditions and Outlook

The impactimpacts to the energy industry from both the recent swift and material decline in commodity pricesdemand for petroleum and petroleum-based products resulting from the response to the global outbreak of COVID-19 have been unprecedented. Through the end of the second quarter, our assets remain operational. We did experience some adverse financial impact through the second quarter which we expect to continue. Management continues to monitor the challenginguneven macro environment. For risks associated with these and other factors, see “Itemrefer to “Item 1A. Risk Factors”Factors in this Quarterly Report.

21


Management continues to work closely with BP Pipelines, as operator of our assets under the Omnibus Agreement, to ensure appropriate practices are adopted for continued functioning of our assets as well as mitigation strategies for any office or worksite where COVID-19 may be detected.

COVID-19

InThe highly contagious Delta variant of COVID-19, first detected in the firstU.S. in March 2021, spread globally during the second quarter of 2020,2021. Uncertainties related to COVID-19 continue to affect the COVID-19 outbreak spread acrossoil and gas industry, including the globe. Federal, statepossibility of renewed restrictions on various commercial, social, and local governments mobilized to implement containment mechanisms and minimize impacts to their populations and economies. Various containment measures, which includedeconomic activities, thereby impacting the quarantining of cities, regions and countries, have resulted in a significant drop in general economic activity and a resulting decrease in demand for petroleumcrude oil, natural gas, refined products.

Potential Impacts to Demand and petroleum-based products.Our Operations

In the second quarter of 2020, as COVID-19 appeared to decrease or stabilize2021, we experienced a reduction in certain areas, certain local, regional and national authorities began to loosen such containment measures and restrictions in various locations in an effort to begin economic recovery, among other purposes. While this relaxation of containment measures has initially led to an increased demand for petroleum and petroleum-based products through improved general economic conditions, there was also a resurgence of COVID-19 cases in June 2020 and continuing into July 2020 that resulted in the reinstatement of containment measures and restrictions, which could lower demand for petroleum and petroleum-based products.

Decline in Demand and Potential Impact to Our Operations

The unprecedented supply and demand dynamics created by demand decreases resulting from COVID-19 and supply increases resulting from recent periods of increased production by members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and other countries, including Russia ("OPEC+"), beginning in March 2020, have resulted in severe
21


declines in commodity prices and created volatility, uncertainty, and turmoil in the oil and gas industry. While in April 2020, OPEC+ agreed to cut production, the production cuts have yet to offset the decrease in demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions. As a result, the price of oil has remained depressed to historic levels and available storage and transportation capacity for production is limited. However it is uncertain whether capital and production cuts will continue and, if so, whether they will be sufficient to offset the continued low demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Demand, and pricing, may again decline due to the resurgence of the outbreak across the U.S. and other locations across the world and the related social distancing guidelines, travel restrictions, and stay-at-home orders, although the extent of the additional impact on our industry and our business cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.

In the six months ended June 30, 2020, we have experienced an adverse financial impactvolumes on our onshore pipelines as a result of reduced demand partially offset by $6.0 million of deficiency revenue recorded under our MVCs on all onshore pipelines, which extend through December 31, 2020 (and for certain volumes on Diamondback, through June 30, 2021). Throughput on our onshore pipelines was approximately 13.9% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to reduced volumes on2021. On BP2, reflective of lower refinery utilization asthis was a result of reduced demand relatedapportionment on the Enbridge mainline and refinery feedstock optimization. With respect to COVID-19 andDiamondback, we experienced lower throughput on River Rouge and Diamondback, which was driven by lower demand for refined products, and loweras demand for diluent in connection withreturned to normal seasonal levels. We did not experience any significant impacts on River Rouge.

BP Products previously executed new MVC agreements for a three-year term which continue to provide downside protection to the Partnership, however the minimum volume thresholds were reduced Canadian heavy crude production, respectively. Wefrom 2020 levels for BP2 and Diamondback. As a result, we could experience a materialnegative financial impact if volumes shipped on our pipelines remain below such minimum commitments beyond the end of 2020 as a result ofdue to reduced consumer demand duedemand. Refer to Part I, Item 1 and 2, Business and Properties — Our Commercial Agreements with BP — Minimum Volume Commitment Agreements in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. If these conditions persist beyond December 31,Partnership's 2020 and BP does not renew or extend our MVCs at all or at similar levels, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and condition. BP has no obligation to renew or extend our MVCs at any level.10-K for additional information.

WeDemand declined on our offshore pipelines in the second quarter of 2021 due to a slower ramp up in production from offshore major projects and new wells and higher maintenance activity by offshore producers. For our offshore joint ventures, we expect demand to be resilient, as offshore projects are larger capital projects planned over many years and less impacted by temporary changes in capital investment. Although we experienced a decline in volumes on our offshore pipelines duringTo limit the second quarter, that decrease was primarily due to the short term impact of tropical storm Cristobal and planned maintenance activities, and to a lesser degree, lower demand due to COVID related impacts.COVID-19, BP and our other customers, as well as us and other third-party operators of our pipelines, have implemented various protocols for both onshore and offshore personnel in efforts to limit the impact of COVID-19;personnel; however, thosethese protocols may not prove fullyto be successful. There is risk of decreased volumes with respect to theour offshore operations if operators take actions to reduce operations in response to demand declines or increasingly limited storage availability or are unable to control COVID-19 infections on platforms and are required to shut-in. Additionally, we expect the shippers on theour offshore pipelines to continue to find buyers for their production; however, they may not be successful.

We have taken steps and continue to actively work to mitigate the evolving challenges and growing impact of both the COVID-19 pandemic and the industry downturn on our operations and our financial condition. We have also worked with BP Pipelines and the third-party operators of our assets to ensure that COVID-19 response and business continuity plans have been implemented across all of our assets and operations. BP employees, including BP Pipelines personnel, have been working from home since March 16, 2020, except those deemed critical to the functioning of owned and managed assets. For those that are critical and are required to be on-site, protocols have been implemented to protect those employees. Thus far, BP employees working remotely have not significantly impacted our operations, including use of financial reporting systems, nor has it significantly impacted our internal control environment. We have not incurred, and in the future do not expect to incur, significant expenses related to business continuity. However, our continuing operations and the management of the immediate and contingent safety measures would likely become increasingly difficult if a significant number of BP employees are infected by COVID-19 and the practical difficulties of social distancing impact productivity.

We also continue to monitor our liquidity position. As of June 30, 2020, we had2021, our liquidity was $269.3 million, consisting of $137.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and $132.0 million available capacity of $132 million under our unsecured revolvingexisting credit facility with BP. Our only outstanding indebtedness is $468.0 million borrowed under our term loan with an affiliate of BP, and $114.9 million cash and our only outstanding indebtedness is $468 million outstanding under the term loan, withthere are no principal payments due until 2025. We experienced a decline in the price of our common units over the first six months of 2020, a condition that is consistent across our sector and may impact our ability to access capital markets. We do not have any debt covenants or other lending arrangements that depend upon our unit price. We are in compliance with the covenants contained in both our revolving credit facility and term loan, both of which include the requirement to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio, which is calculated as total indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA, not to exceed 5.0 to 1.0, subject to a temporary increase in such ratio to 5.5 to 1.0 in connection with certain material acquisitions. Please see “CapitalFor additional information, refer to “Capital Resources and Liquidity”Liquidity and Note 6 - Debtfor additional information.

We are unable to reasonably predict when, or to what extent, demand for petroleum and petroleum-based products and the overall markets and global economy will stabilize, and the pace of any subsequent recovery for the oil and gas industry. Further, to what extent these events do ultimately impact our business, liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations is highly uncertain and dependent on numerous evolving factors that cannot be predicted, including the duration of the pandemic. As noted above, BP Pipelines and the third-party operators of our assets have taken steps and continue to actively work to
22


mitigate the evolving challenges and growingcontinuing impact of both the COVID-19 pandemic and the industry downturn on our operations, financial condition, cash flows and financial condition.liquidity. However, given the tremendous uncertainty and turmoil, there is no certainty that the measures we take will be ultimately sufficient.

How We Evaluate Our Operations

Partnership management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing operating results and profitability and include: (i) safety and environmental metrics, (ii) revenue (including FLA) from throughput and utilization; (iii) operating expenses and maintenance spend; (iv) Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below); and (v) cash available for distribution (as defined below).

22


Preventative Safety and Environmental Metrics

We are committed to maintaining and improving the safety, reliability and efficiency of Partnership operations. As noted above, we have worked with BP Pipelines and the third-party operators of our assets to ensure that COVID-19 response and business continuity plans have been implemented across all of our assets and operations. We have implemented reporting programs requiring all employees and contractors of our Parent who provide services to us to record environmental and safety related incidents. The Partnership's management team uses these existing programs and data to evaluate trends and potential interventions to deliver on performance targets. We integrate health, occupational safety, process safety and environmental principles throughout Partnership operations to reduce and eliminate environmental and safety related incidents.

Throughput

We have historically generated substantially all of our revenue under long-term agreements or FERC-regulated generally applicable tariffs by charging fees for the transportation of products through our pipelines. The amount of revenue we generate under these agreements depends in part on the volumes of crude oil, natural gas, refined products and diluent on our pipelines. Refer to Part I, Item 1 and 2, Business and Properties — Our Commercial Agreements with BP — Minimum Volume Commitment Agreements in the Partnership's 2020 10-K for additional information.

Volumes on pipelines are primarily affected by the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, natural gas, refined products and diluent in the markets served directly or indirectly by Partnership assets. Results of operations are impacted by our ability to:

utilize any remaining unused capacity on, or add additional capacity to, Partnership pipeline systems;
increase throughput volumes on Partnership pipeline systems by making connections to existing or new third-party pipelines or other facilities, primarily driven by the anticipated supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas, refined products and diluent;
identify and execute organic expansion projects; and
increase throughput volumes via acquisitions.

In addition, substantially all of our aggregate revenue on BP2, Diamondback and River Rouge is supported by commercial agreements with BP Products. We are a party to two throughput and deficiency agreements with BP Products and one dedication agreement with a third-party for Diamondback. The dedication agreement and one throughput and deficiency agreement for Diamondback were renewed in 2020 and will now expire in June 2021. The other throughput and deficiency agreement for Diamondback will expire on December 31, 2020 by its term, if it is not renewed. BP Products has entered into minimum volume commitment agreements with respect to BP2 and River Rouge, and these two throughput and deficiency agreements will expire by their terms on December 31, 2020, if they are not renewed.

Storage Utilization

Storage utilization is a metric that we use to evaluate the performance of our storage and terminalling assets. We define storage utilization as the percentage of the contracted capacity in barrels compared to the design capacity of the tank.

Operating Expenses and Total Maintenance Spend

Operating Expenses

Management seeks to maximize profitability by effectively managing operating expenses. These expenses are comprised primarily of labor expenses (including contractor services), general materials, supplies, minor maintenance, utility costs (including electricity and fuel) and insurance premiums. Utility costs fluctuate based on throughput volumes and the grades of crude oil and types of refined products we handle. Other operating expenses generally remain relatively stable across broad
23


ranges of throughput volumes but can fluctuate from period to period depending on the mix of activities performed during that period.

23


Total Maintenance Spend - Wholly Owned Assets

We calculate Total Maintenance Spend as the sum of maintenance expenses and maintenance capital expenditures, excluding any reimbursable maintenance capital expenditures. We track these expenses on a combined basis because it is useful to understanding total maintenance requirements. Total Maintenance Spend for the six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively, is shown in the table below:

(1)Relates to the portion of maintenance capital for the Griffith Station Incident reimbursable by insurance.

The Partnership seeks to maximize profitability by effectively managing maintenance expenses, which consist primarily of safety and environmental integrity programs. We seek to manage maintenance expenses on owned and operated pipelines by scheduling maintenance over time to avoid significant variability in maintenance expenses and minimize impact on cash flows, without compromising our commitment to safety and environmental stewardship.

Maintenance expenses represent the costs we incur that do not significantly extend the useful life or increase the expected output of property, plant and equipment. These expenses include pipeline repairs, replacements of immaterial sections of pipelines, inspections, equipment rentals and costs incurred to maintain compliance with existing safety and environmental standards, irrespective of the magnitude of such compliance expenses. Maintenance expenses may vary significantly from period to period because certain expenses are the result of scheduled safety and environmental integrity programs, which occur on a multi-year cycle and require substantial outlays.

Maintenance capital expenditures represent expenditures to sustain operating capacity or operating income over the long term. Examples of maintenance capital expenditures include expenditures made to purchase new or replacement assets or extend the useful life of existing assets. These expenditures includes repairs and replacements of storage tanks, replacements of significant sections of pipelines and improvements to an asset’s safety and environmental standards.

Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Available for Distribution

The Partnership defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income before net interest expense, income taxes, gain or loss from disposition of property, plant and equipment, and depreciation and amortization, plus cash distributed to the Partnership from equity method investments for the applicable period, less income from equity method investments. The Partnership defines Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Partnership as Adjusted EBITDA less Adjusted EBITDA attributable to non-controlling interests. We present these financial measures because we believe replacing our proportionate share of our equity method investments’ net income with the cash received from such equity method investments more accurately reflects the cash flow from our business, which is meaningful to our investors.

We compute and present cash available for distribution and define it as Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Partnership less maintenance capital expenditures attributable to the Partnership, net interest paid/received, cash reserves, income taxes paid and net adjustments from volume deficiency payments attributable to the Partnership. Cash available for distribution does not reflect changes in working capital balances.

Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures, which are metrics that management and external users of Partnership condensedour consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess:

operating performance as compared to other publicly traded Partnershipspartnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or financing methods;
24


ability to generate sufficient cash to support decisions to make distributions to our unitholders;
ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and
24


viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution are net income and net cash provided by operating activities, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income or net cash provided by operating activities.

Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA or cash available for distribution in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. Please readRefer toReconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” section below for the reconciliation of net income and cash provided by operating activities to Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution.

Factors Affecting Our Business

Partnership business can be negatively affected by sustained downturns or slow growth in the economy in general and is impacted by shifts in supply and demand dynamics, the mix of services requested by the customers of our pipelines, competition and changes in regulatory requirements affecting our customers’ operations. For example, as discussed earlier, in March of 2020, the spot price of West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude declined over 50% in response to reductions in global demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic and announcements by Saudi Arabia and Russia of plans to increase crude oil production. In addition to the collapse and current volatility in oil prices, demand for many refined petroleum products has also declined sharply causing refineries to curtail output. The ultimate magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting governmental restrictions on the mobility of consumers and the related impact on crude oil pricesdemand and the U.S. and global economy and capital markets is uncertain. The uncertain future impacts of COVID-19 and swift shifts in the demand for oil may negatively impact our financial position, particularly our cash flows and liquidity. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, all of our assets remain operational. We did experience some adverse financial impact through the second quarter which we expect to continue.

Customers

BP is our primary customer. Total revenue from BP represented 97.3% of our revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Total revenue from BP represented 97.5% and 97.1% of our revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Total revenue from BPBP’s volumes represented 97.5% and 97.4%approximately 94.6% of our revenuesthe aggregate total volumes transported on the Wholly Owned Assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.2021. BP’s volumes represented approximately 94.2% and 93.8% of the aggregate total volumes transported on the Wholly Owned Assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. BP’s volumes represented approximately 94.9% and 95.0% of the aggregate total volumes transported on the Wholly Owned Assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

In addition, we transport and store crude oil, natural gas and diluent for a mix of third-party customers, including crude oil producers, refiners, marketers and traders, and Partnership assets are connected to other crude oil, natural gas and diluent pipeline systems. In addition to serving directly connected Midwestern U.S. and Gulf Coast markets, our pipelines have access to customers in various regions of the United States and Canada through interconnections with other major pipelines. Customers use our transportation and terminalling services for a variety of reasons. Producers of crude oil require the ability to deliver their product to market and frequently enter into firm transportation contracts to ensure that they will have sufficient capacity available to deliver their product to delivery points with greatest market liquidity. Marketers and traders generate income from buying and selling crude oil, natural gas, refined products and diluent to capitalize on price differentials over time or between markets. Our customer mix can vary over time and largely depends on the crude oil, natural gas, refined products and diluent supply and demand dynamics in our markets.

Regulation

Interstate common carrier pipelines are subject to regulation by various federal, state and local agencies including the FERC, the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") and the Department of Transportation ("DOT").Transportation. On June 18,December 17, 2020, in Docket No. RM20-14-000, FERC issued an order establishing a new index level of PPI-FG plus 0.78% for the five-year period commencing July 1, 2021. However, requests for rehearing of the December 2020 order establishing this indexing amount were filed with FERC, and those requests remain pending, with rehearing granted for purposes of extending the time FERC has to review these requests. FERC issued a notice on May 14, 2021, providing the final change in the PPI-FG that determines the oil pricing index factor to be applied for the index year starting July 1, 2021. The oil pricing index factor, calculated as the percent change in the annual average PPI-FG plus an index level of 0.78%, resulted in a negative percent change for the index year July 1, 2021, through June 30, 2022. A negative percent change means that the ceiling level for certain of an oil pipelines’ rates may decrease and, if the actual transportation rate would be above such ceiling level, the rate also must decrease to be equal to or

For more

On May 27, 2021, the Department of Homeland Security’s Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) announced Security Directive Pipeline-2021-01 that requires us, as a critical pipeline owner, to report confirmed and potential cybersecurity incidents to the DHS Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (“CISA”) and to designate a Cybersecurity Coordinator. It also requires BP Pipelines and the third-party operators of our assets to review current practices as well as to identify any gaps and related remediation measures to address cyber-related risks and report the results to TSA and CISA within 30 days. We designated a Cybersecurity Coordinator, developed a plan to comply with mandatory reporting timeframes and completed the vulnerability assessment required under this directive on June 25, 2021. On July 20, 2021, the TSA issued a second Security Directive. We are continuing to evaluate the impacts of this second directive to our pipeline business and are committed to complying in a timely fashion.

Refer to Part I, Item 1 and 2, Business and Properties in the Partnership's 2020 10-K for additional information on federal, state and local regulations affecting our business, see Part I, Item 1 and 2. Business and Properties in the Partnership's 2019 10-K.business.

Acquisition Opportunities

The Partnership plans to pursue acquisitions of complementary assets from BP as well as third parties subject to market conditions (including the ongoingpotential effects of COVID-19) and our ability to obtain attractive financing. We may also pursue acquisitions jointly with BP Pipelines. BP Pipelines has granted us a right of first offer with respect to its retained ownership interest in Mardi Gras and all of its interests in midstream pipeline systems and assets related thereto in the contiguous United States and offshore Gulf of Mexico that were owned by BP Pipelines when we were established. Neither BP nor any of its affiliates are under any obligation, however, to sell or offer to sell us additional assets or to pursue acquisitions jointly with us, and we are under no obligation to buy any additional assets from them or to pursue any joint acquisitions with them. We will focus our acquisition strategy on transportation and midstream assets within the crude oil, natural gas and refined products sectors. We believe that we are well positioned to acquire midstream assets from BP, and particularly BP Pipelines, as well as third parties, should such opportunities arise. Identifying and executing acquisitions will be a key part of our strategy. However, if we do not make acquisitions on economically acceptable terms, our future growth will be limited, and the acquisitions we do make may reduce, rather than increase, our available cash.

Financing

We expect to fund future capital expenditures primarily from external sources, including borrowings under our credit facility and potential future issuances of equity and debt securities.

We intend to make cash distributions to unitholders at a minimum distribution rate of $0.2625 per unit per quarter ($1.05 per unit on an annualized basis). Based on the terms of our cash distribution policy, we expect that we will distribute to unitholders and the General Partner, as the holder of IDRs, most of the cash generated by operations.

Griffith Station Incident

On June 13, 2019, a building fire occurred at the Griffith Station on BP2. Management performed an evaluation of the assets and recordeddetermined that an impairment in 2019. A charge of $2.3 million for the impairment and $0.8 million for response expenses were recorded under "Impairment and other, net" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Our assets are insured with a deductible of $1.0 million per incident. We accrued an offsetting insurance receivable of $2.1 million under "Other current assets" on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019.

was required. We have incurred $0.1 million and $0.2 million for response expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. TotalReimbursable costs associated with the incident wereare offset with an insurance receivable, of $5.2which $2.5 million is outstanding under "Other current assets" on our condensed consolidated balance sheetsheets as of June 30, 2020. The insurance receivable is recorded as $4.3 million under "Other current assets"2021 and $0.7 million under "Other assets" on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019.2020. In the event that insurance proceeds exceed the receivable balance, such amounts would be recognized as a gain.

Results of Operations

The following tables and discussion contain a summary of condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019.2020.

As mentioned above in Item 2 - COVID-19, through the secondquarter of2020, our financial condition and results of operations have been adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the current volatility and decline in commodity prices. We could experience a material financial impact if volumes shipped on our onshore assets remain below the MVCs beyond the end of 2020 and the MVCs are not renewed. Additionally, if the economic downturn extends into 2021, including limited demand for refined products and a depressed oil price, we would be exposed to lower volumes flowing through our onshore assets without the benefit of the current MVCs from BP. Lower volumes flowing through the offshore assets, either due to depressed demand or lack of storage capacity or both, could cause our income from equity method investments to decline until such time as demand recovers.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Currently, we expect our primary ongoing sources of liquidity to be cash generated from operations (including distributiondistributions from our equity method investments), and, as needed, borrowings under our existing credit facility. The entities in which we own an interest may also incur debt. We believe that cash generated from these sources will be sufficient to meet our short-term working capital requirements and long-term capital expenditure requirements and to make quarterly cash distributions.

Based upon current expectations for the fiscal year 2021, we believe that our cash on hand, cash flow from operations and borrowings available under our credit facility will be sufficient to fund our operations for 2021. As of June 30, 2020,2021, our liquidity was $246.9$269.3 million, consisting of $114.9$137.3 million of cash and $132cash equivalents and $132.0 million available under our existing credit facility with BP. Our only debt outstanding indebtedness is our $468$468.0 million borrowed under our term loan with an affiliate of BP, and there are no principal payments required with respect to that facilitydue until 2025.

Through the second quarter of 2020, our financial condition and results of operations have been adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the current volatility and decline in commodity prices. We could experience a material financial impact if volumes shipped on our onshore assets remain below the MVCs beyond the end of 2020 and the MVCs are not renewed. Additionally, there is risk of decreased volumes with respect to the offshore operations if operators take actions to reduce operations in response to demand declines or increasingly limited storage availability or are unable to control COVID-19 infections on platforms and are required to shut-in. In the longer term, if reducedthere was a decrease in demand were to persist throughand such decrease persisted throughout 2021 or longer, we may not be able to continue to generate similar levels of operating cash flow and our liquidity and capital resources may not be sufficient to make our current levels of cash distributions to unitholders or even meet our minimum quarterly distribution. Although weWe continue to actively work to mitigate the evolvingcontinuing challenges and growing impact of both the COVID-19 pandemic and the industry downturn on our operations, and our financial condition, cash flows and liquidity. However, there is no certainty that the measures we take will be ultimately sufficient.

Cash Distributions

The board of directors of our General Partner has adopted a cash distribution policy pursuant to which we intend to pay a minimum quarterly distribution of $0.2625 per unit per quarter, which equates to approximately $27.5$27.5 million per quarter, or approximately $110$110.0 million per year in the aggregate, based on the number of common and subordinated units outstanding as of June 30, 2020.2021. We intend to pay such distributions to the extent we have sufficient cash after the establishment of cash reserves and the payment of expenses, including payments to our General Partner and its affiliates.

Subordinated Unit Conversion

On JulyApril 15, 2020, we2021, the Partnership declared a cash distribution of $0.3475 per limited partner unit to unitholders of record on July 30, 2020,April 29, 2021, for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The distribution, combined with distributions to our General Partner, will be paid on August 13, 2020, and will total $37.6 million, with $16.6 million distributed to our non-affiliated common unitholders, and $21.0 million, including $1.2 million for IDRs distributed to our Parent in respectMarch 31, 2021. All of its ownership of ourthe subordinated units were converted into common units on February 12, 2021. As a result, on the date of record, there were no subordinated units outstanding, and IDRs.therefore, no portion of the cash distribution was allocated to the limited partners' subordinated units. Refer to Note 8 - Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit for additional information.

Revolving Credit Facility

On October 30, 2017, the Partnership entered into the $600a $600.0 million unsecured Credit Facilityrevolving credit facility agreement with an affiliate of BP. The Credit Facilitycredit facility terminates on October 30, 2022 and provides for certain covenants, including the requirement to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio,, which is calculated as total indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facility)credit facility), not to exceed 5.0 to 1.0, subject to a temporary increase in such ratio to 5.5 to 1.0 in connection with certain material acquisitions. In addition, the limited liability company agreement of our General Partner requires the approval of BP Holdco prior to the incurrence of any indebtedness that would cause our leverage ratio to exceed 4.5 to 1.0.

The Credit Facilitycredit facility also contains customary events of default, such as (i) nonpayment of principal when due, (ii) nonpayment of interest, fees or other amounts, (iii) breach of covenants, (iv) misrepresentation, (v) cross-payment default and cross-acceleration (in each case, to indebtedness in excess of $75$75.0 million) and (vi) insolvency. Additionally, the Credit Facilitycredit facility limits our ability to, among other things: (i) incur or guarantee additional debt, (ii) redeem or repurchase units or make distributions under certain circumstances; and (iii) incur certain liens or permit them to exist. Indebtedness under this facility bears interest at the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 0.85%. This facility includes customary fees, including a commitment fee of 0.10% and a utilization fee of 0.20%.

In connection with our acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2018, we borrowed $468$468.0 million from the Credit Facility.credit facility. This amount was outstanding at December 31, 2019, and repaid as ofon March 31, 2020.13, 2020 using funds from the Term Loan Facility Agreement.

Term Loan Facility Agreement

On February 24, 2020, the Partnership entered intointo a $468$468.0 million Term Loan Facility Agreement ("term loanloan") with an affiliate of BP. On March 13, 2020, proceeds were used to repay outstanding borrowings under our existing Credit Facility. Please refer to Note 9 - Debt in the Partnership's 2019 10-K for further details.existing credit facility. The term loan has a final repayment date of FebruaryFebruary 24, 2025, and provides for certain covenants, including the requirement to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio, which is calculated as total indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA, not to exceed 5.0 to 1.0, subject to a temporary increase in such ratio to 5.5 to 1.0 in connection with certain material acquisitions. Simultaneous with this transaction, we entered into a First Amendment to Short Term Credit Facility Agreement ("First Amendment") whereby the lender added a provision that indebtedness under both the term loan and credit facility shall not exceed $600$600.0 million. All other terms of the credit facility remain the same. As of June 30, 2020,2021, the Partnership was in compliance with the covenants contained in the term loancredit facility and the credit facility.term loan.

Cash Flows from Operations

Operating Activities. We generated $99.5$101.5 million and $87.3$99.5 million in cash flow from operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively. The $12.2$2.0 million increase in cash flows from operating activities resulted from a $5.0$3.9 million increase from changes in distributionworking capital offset by a $1.9 million net decrease from operations principally due to a decrease in revenue and distributions of earnings received from equity method investments, $3.0 million increase in working capital, andpartially offset by a net $4.2 million increase due to an increase in operating income and a reductiondecrease in interest expense.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

The Partnership is subject to various risks and uncertainties in the course of business. Security holders and potential investors in the Partnership's securities should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below and set forth under “Risk Factors” in the Partnership's 20192020 10-K.

Events outside of our control, includingCompliance with and changes in cybersecurity requirements has a pandemic such as the global outbreak of COVID-19, and the potential global recession could have a material adversecost impact on our financial position, results of operationsbusiness, and cash flows.failure to comply with such laws and regulations could have an impact on our assets, costs, revenue generation and growth opportunities.

In the firstsecond quarter of 2020,2021, the COVID-19 outbreak beganDepartment of Homeland Security’s Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) announced two new security directives. These directives require critical pipeline owners to spread quickly across the globe. Federal, statecomply with mandatory reporting measures and local governments mobilizedprovide vulnerability assessments. We may be required to implement containment mechanisms and minimize impactsexpend significant additional resources to their populations and economies. Various containment measures, which included the quarantining of cities, regions and countries have resulted in a severe drop in general economic activity and a decrease in energy demand. The risks associated with COVID-19 have also impacted the BP Pipelines workforce and the way we meet our business objectives.

The impacts of a global recession would likely extend the time for the current oil marketsrespond to absorb excess supplies and rebalance inventory resulting in decreased demand for our midstream services for a number of future quarters.

The current commodity price environment may remain depressed based on over-supply, decreasing demand and a potential global economic recession, as is evidenced by the current historically low prices in the forward curve for oil, for several years. With decreased demand and the storage and transportation constraints further addingcyberattacks, to the pressure on commodities prices, refiners have curtailed output, and producers all over the world – including in the United States – have significantly decreased their capital programs and shut-in production. If these conditions persist beyond December 31, 2020, and continue to resultmodify or enhance our protective measures, or to assess, investigate and remediate any critical infrastructure security vulnerabilities. Any failure to remain in a significant declinecompliance with these government regulations may results in demand for our services with respect to our onshore pipelines and BP does not renew or extend our MVCs at all or at similar levels, it could have a material effect on our financial results and condition. BP has no obligation to renew or extend our MVCs at any level.

In addition, it is possible that volumesenforcement actions which may be reduced on our offshore pipelines as well, which are not covered by any MVCs. In the short term, there is risk of decreased volumes with respect to the offshore operations if operators take actions to reduce operations in response to demand declines or increasingly limited storage availability or are unable to control COVID-19 infections on platforms and are required to shut-in. In the longer term, there is risk that our customers cease investing in additional offshore projects in a protracted low commodity price environment, which would harm our growth. Our profitability may be significantly affected by this decreased demand and these factors could lead to reductions in our distributions to unitholders.

In addition, the outbreak of COVID-19 could potentially further impact the BP Pipelines workforce. The infection of key personnel, and/or the infection of a significant amount of the BP Pipelines workforce, could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

Our business could be negatively impacted by cyberattacks targeting our computer and telecommunications systems and infrastructure, or targeting those of our third-party service providers.

Our business, like other companies in the oil and gas industry, has become increasingly dependent on digital technologies, including technologies that are managed by third-party service providers on whom we rely to help us collect, host or process information. Such technologies are integrated into our business operations and used as a part of our production and distribution systems in the U.S. and abroad, including those systems used to transport production to market, to enable communications and to provide a host of other support services for our business. Use of the internet and other public networks for communications, services and storage, including “cloud” computing, exposes all users (including our business) to cybersecurity risks.

While BP and our third-party service providers commit resources to the design, implementation and monitoring of our information systems, there is no guarantee that our security measures will provide absolute security. Despite these security measures, BP may not be able to anticipate, detect, or prevent cyberattacks, particularly because the methodologies used by attackers change frequently or may not be recognized until launched, and because attackers are increasingly using techniques designed to circumvent controls and avoid detection. BP and our third-party service providers may therefore be vulnerable to security events that are beyond our control, and we may be the target of cyber-attacks, as well as physical attacks, which could result in information security breaches and significant disruption to our business. Such data breaches and cyberattacks could compromise our operational or other capabilities and cause significant damage to our business and our reputation.

BP information systems have experienced threats to the security of our digital infrastructure, but none of these have had a significant impact on our business, financial conditionoperations or reputation relating to such attacks. BP maintains a 24/7 dedicated security operations center to anticipate, detect and results of operations. BP employees have been working from home since March 16, 2020, except those deemed critical toprevent cyberattacks; however, there is no assurance that we will not suffer such losses or breaches in the functioning of owned and managed assets. A remote workforce could introduce risks to achieving business objectives and/or the ability to maintain our controls and procedures. For example, the technology required for the transition to remote work increases our vulnerability to cybersecurity threats, including threats of unauthorized access to sensitive information or to render data or systems unusable, the impact of which may have material adverse effects on ourfuture.

businessAs cyberattacks continue to evolve, we may be required to expend significant additional resources to respond to cyberattacks, to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures, or to investigate and operations. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors - Terrorist or cyber-attacksremediate any information systems and threats, or escalation of military activity in response to these attacks, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations” in the Partnership's 2019 10-K.

In addition to the risks stated above, our operations arerelated infrastructure security vulnerabilities. We may also be subject to additional risks related to the current economic environment caused by the factors discussed above, including:

our debt service requirements and other liabilities, and restrictions contained in our debt agreements;
our ability to maintain sufficient cash available for distribution following the establishment of cash reserves and payment of fees and expenses, to enable us to pay minimum quarterly distributions to unitholders;
unavailability of third-party pipelines, production platforms, refineries, caverns and other facilities interconnected to our pipelines to transport, produce, refineregulatory investigations or store crude oil, natural gas, refined products or diluent;
demand for refined products or diluent, continues to decrease; and
the risk of further adverse changes to BP’s production or development plans, which we are dependent on for a majority of the crude oil, natural gas, refined products and diluent that we transport

The impacts of COVID-19 and the significant drop in consumer demand has had an unprecedented impact on the global economy and our business. We are unable to predict all potential impacts to our business, the severity of such impacts or the duration.litigation relating from cybersecurity issues.

Item 5. OTHER INFORMATION

Disclosures Required Pursuant to Section 13(r) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934None.

In accordance with our General Business Principles and Code of Conduct, we seek to comply with all applicable international trade laws including applicable sanctions and embargoes.

Under the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, and Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act, we are required to include certain disclosures in our periodic reports if we or any of our “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) knowingly engaged in certain specified activities during the period covered by the report. Because the SEC defines the term “affiliate” broadly, it includes any entity controlled by us as well as any person or entity that controls us or is under common control with us.

The disclosure below relates solely to activities conducted by non-U.S. affiliates of BP p.l.c. that may be deemed to be under common control with us. The disclosure does not relate to any activities conducted directly by us (including our subsidiaries and equity investments), or our general partner and does not involve our or the general partner’s management.

For purposes of this disclosure, we refer to BP p.l.c. and its subsidiaries other than us, the general partner and BP Midstream Partners Holdings LLC as the “BP Group.” References to actions taken by the BP Group mean actions taken by the applicable BP Group company. None of the payments disclosed below were made in U.S. dollars, however, for disclosure purposes, all have been converted into U.S. dollars at the appropriate exchange rate. We do not believe that any of the transactions or activities listed below violated U.S. sanctions:

BP p.l.c. indirectly owns a 29.3% interest in Middle East Lubricants Company LLC (“Melubco”), a non-operated joint venture, manufacturing lubricants in the United Arab Emirates.

In November 2018, an Iranian shipping company brought a claim in Iran against Melubco, for non-payment of shipping fees, and obtained a judgment in absentia with a US dollar equivalent value of approximately $60,000.

In November 2019, the Consulate General of The Islamic Republic of Iran in Dubai formally notified Melubco that a case had been filed.

In May 2020, Melubco paid court filing fees to the Tehran Judicial Services Office with a US dollar equivalent value of approximately $2,694. The payment was required to appeal the judgment obtained in absentia against Melubco.

Melubco refutes the claim on the basis that it has never contracted with or received any services from this shipping company.
