Strategic Update
In Natural Gas and NGL Services, MPLX is expanding its Permian to Gulf Coast integrated value chain, progressing long-haul pipeline growth projects to support expected increased producer activity, and investing in Permian and Marcellus processing capacity in response to producer demand. Updates on Natural Gas and NGL Services projects include:
Newly Announced
-- BANGL Pipeline: MPLX announced the strategic acquisition of the remaining
55% of BANGL, LLC for $715 million, resulting in 100% ownership. The
system transports natural gas liquids from the Permian basin to markets
along the Gulf Coast, and will connect to MPLX's announced Gulf Coast
fractionation facilities. The transaction is expected to close in July,
subject to customary closing conditions.
-- Traverse Pipeline: MPLX and its partners announced FID of the Traverse
Pipeline, a bi-directional pipeline designed to transport 1.75 billion
cubic feet per day (bcf/d) of natural gas along the Gulf Coast between
Agua Dulce and the Katy area. The pipeline enhances optionality for
shippers to access multiple premium markets, and is expected in service
in 2027.
-- Matterhorn Express Pipeline: MPLX has entered into an agreement to
increase its stake in the joint venture that owns and operates the
Matterhorn Express pipeline by 5% for $151 million, bringing MPLX's total
interest in the pipeline to 10%. The pipeline is designed to transport up
to 2.5 bcf/d of natural gas from the Permian basin to the Katy area near
Houston. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of
2025, subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions.
Ongoing
-- Gulf Coast Fractionators: Two 150 thousand barrel per day (bpd)
fractionation facilities near Marathon Petroleum's $(MPC)$ Galveston
Bay refinery. The fractionation facilities are expected in service in
2028 and 2029. MPC is contracting with MPLX to purchase offtake from the
fractionators, which MPC intends to market globally.
-- LPG Export Terminal: A strategic partnership with ONEOK, Inc. to develop
a 400 thousand bpd LPG export terminal and an associated pipeline, which
is anticipated in service in 2028.
-- BANGL Pipeline: Expanding from 250 thousand bpd to 300 thousand bpd,
which is anticipated to come online in the second half of 2026. This
pipeline will enable liquids to reach MPLX's Gulf Coast fractionators.
-- Blackcomb and Rio Bravo Pipelines: Progressing with an expected
in-service date in the second half of 2026. These pipelines are designed
to transport natural gas from the Permian to domestic and export markets
along the Gulf Coast.
-- Secretariat: A 200 million cubic feet per day (mmcf/d) processing plant
is expected online in the fourth quarter of 2025, increasing MPLX's gas
processing capacity in the Permian basin to 1.4 bcf/d.
-- Harmon Creek III: A 300 mmcf/d processing plant and 40 thousand bpd
de-ethanizer, expected online in the second half of 2026. This complex
will increase MPLX's processing capacity in the Northeast to 8.1 bcf/d
and fractionation capacity to 800 thousand bpd.
In Crude Oil and Products Logistics, MPLX is expanding its crude gathering pipelines in the Permian and Bakken basins, and investing in projects targeted at the expansion or de-bottlenecking of assets.
Newly Announced
-- Crude Gathering: MPLX expanded its crude oil value chain by acquiring
gathering businesses from Whiptail Midstream, LLC for $237 million. These
San Juan basin assets consist primarily of crude and natural gas
gathering systems in the Four Corners region, and enhance MPLX's
strategic relationship with MPC.
Financial Position and Liquidity
As of March 31, 2025, MPLX had $2.5 billion in cash, $2.0 billion available on its bank revolving credit facility, and $1.5 billion available through its intercompany loan agreement with MPC. MPLX's leverage ratio was 3.3x, while the stability of cash flows supports leverage in the range of 4.0x.
On February 11, 2025, MPLX exercised its right to convert the remaining 6 million outstanding Series A preferred units into common units.
On February 18, 2025, MPLX repaid the $0.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.000% senior notes due February 2025.
On March 10, 2025, MPLX issued $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes. The issuance consisted of $1.0 billion of 5.400% senior notes due 2035, and $1.0 billion of 5.950% senior notes due 2055.
Subsequent to quarter-end, on April 9, 2025, MPLX repaid all of its outstanding $1.2 billion senior notes due June 2025.
The partnership repurchased $100 million of common units held by the public in the first quarter of 2025. As of March 31, 2025, MPLX had approximately $420 million remaining available under its unit repurchase authorization.

Non-GAAP references
In addition to our financial information presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management utilizes additional non-GAAP measures to analyze our performance. This press release and supporting schedules include the non-GAAP measures adjusted EBITDA; consolidated debt to last twelve months adjusted EBITDA, which we refer to as our leverage ratio; distributable cash flow $(DCF)$; adjusted free cash flow (Adjusted FCF); and Adjusted FCF after distributions.
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial performance measure used by management, industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies to assess the financial performance and operating results of our ongoing business operations. Additionally, we believe adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors for trending, analyzing and benchmarking our operating results from period to period as compared to other companies that may have different financing and capital structures. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for: (i) provision for income taxes; (ii) net interest and other financial costs; (iii) depreciation and amortization; (iv) income/(loss) from equity method investments; (v) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (vi) impairment expense; (vii) noncontrolling interests; and (viii) other adjustments, as applicable.
DCF is a financial performance and liquidity measure used by management and by the board of directors of our general partner as a key component in the determination of cash distributions paid to unitholders. We believe DCF is an important financial measure for unitholders as an indicator of cash return on investment and to evaluate whether the partnership is generating sufficient cash flow to support quarterly distributions. In addition, DCF is commonly used by the investment community because the market value of publicly traded partnerships is based, in part, on DCF and cash distributions paid to unitholders. We define DCF as Adjusted EBITDA adjusted for: (i) deferred revenue impacts; (ii) sales-type lease payments, net of income; (iii) adjusted net interest and other financial costs; (iv) net maintenance capital expenditures; (v) equity method investment capital expenditures paid out; and (vi) other adjustments as deemed necessary.
Adjusted FCF and Adjusted FCF after distributions are financial liquidity measures used by management in the allocation of capital and to assess financial performance. We believe that unitholders may use this metric to analyze our ability to manage leverage and return capital. We define Adjusted FCF as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for: (i) net cash used in investing activities; (ii) cash contributions from MPC; and (iii) cash distributions to noncontrolling interests. We define Adjusted FCF after distributions as Adjusted FCF less base distributions to common and preferred unitholders. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, DCF, Adjusted FCF and Adjusted FCF after distributions provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations.
Leverage ratio is a liquidity measure used by management, industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies to analyze our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures.
The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and DCF are net income and net cash provided by operating activities while the GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted FCF and Adjusted FCF after distributions is net cash provided by operating activities. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income or net cash provided by operating activities as they 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 or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, DCF, Adjusted FCF, Adjusted FCF after distributions and our leverage ratio to their most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see the tables below.
