| Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Investments in Unconsolidated Entities | Investments in Unconsolidated Entities Investments in entities over which we have significant influence but not control are accounted for under the equity method. We do not consolidate any part of the assets or liabilities of our equity investees. Our share of net income or loss is reflected as one line item on our Consolidated Statements of Operations entitled “Equity earnings in unconsolidated entities” and will increase or decrease, as applicable, the carrying value of our investments in unconsolidated entities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We evaluate our equity investments for impairment in accordance with FASB guidance with respect to the equity method of accounting for investments in common stock. An impairment of an equity investment results when factors indicate that the investment’s fair value is less than its carrying value and the reduction in value is other than temporary in nature. Our investments in unconsolidated entities consisted of the following (in millions, except percentage data):
(1)The financial results from these entities are reported in our Crude Oil segment. (2)Although we own more than 50% of Capline, we use the equity method to account for the investment because the other joint venture members still retain substantive participating rights. (3)Although we own less than 20% of W2W Pipeline, we use the equity method to account for the investment because we believe we have significant influence over the financial and operating decisions of the company. Acquisitions During 2025, we acquired the remaining 50% interest in Cheyenne (which was previously presented in “Other investments” in the table above). Prior to our acquisition, our 50% interest in Cheyenne was accounted for as an equity method investment. In addition, during 2025, we acquired an additional interest in BridgeTex, which we continue to account for as an equity method investment. See Note 8 for additional information regarding these transactions. During 2024, we acquired the remaining 50% interest in Midway (which was previously presented in “Other investments” in the table above). Prior to our acquisition, our 50% interest in Midway was accounted for as an equity method investment. In addition, during 2024, we acquired additional interests in W2W Pipeline and Saddlehorn, which we continue to account for as equity method investments. See Note 8 for additional information regarding these transactions. In the third quarter of 2023, we acquired the remaining 43% interest in OMOG. We now reflect OMOG and its subsidiaries as consolidated subsidiaries in our Consolidated Financial Statements. See “Rattler Permian Transaction” in Note 8 for additional information. Distributions Distributions received from unconsolidated entities are classified based on the nature of the distribution approach, which looks to the activity that generated the distribution. We consider distributions received from unconsolidated entities as a return on investment in those entities to the extent that the distribution was generated through operating results, and therefore classify these distributions as cash flows from operating activities in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Other distributions received from unconsolidated entities are considered a return of investment and classified as cash flows from investing activities on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Contributions We generally fund our portion of development, construction or capital investment projects of our equity method investees through capital contributions. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, we made cash contributions of $2 million, $4 million and $29 million, respectively, to certain of our equity method investees. We capitalize interest costs associated with contributions to unconsolidated entities for projects under development and construction. Our contributions to these entities (including capitalized interest costs) increase the carrying value of our investments and are reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as cash used in investing activities. Basis Differences Our investments in unconsolidated entities exceeded our share of the underlying equity in the net assets of such entities by $237 million and $213 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Such basis differences are included in the carrying values of our investments on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The portion of the basis differences attributable to depreciable or amortizable assets is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related assets, which reduces “Equity earnings in unconsolidated entities” on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The portion of the basis differences attributable to goodwill is not amortized. The majority of the basis difference at both December 31, 2025 and 2024 was attributable to goodwill related to our ownership interest in BridgeTex with the remaining basis difference primarily related to capitalized interest incurred during construction of the assets of our unconsolidated entities. Summarized Financial Information of Unconsolidated Entities Combined summarized financial information for all of our unconsolidated entities is shown in the tables below (in millions). None of our unconsolidated entities have noncontrolling interests.
