Basis Of Presentation
Basis Of Presentation	1. Basis of Presentation Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. ("the Partnership") is a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership that owns and operates a logistics business, consisting of refined products and crude oil pipelines, terminalling and storage assets, and refined products and crude oil acquisition and marketing assets. The Partnership is principally engaged in the transport, terminalling and storage of refined products and crude oil and the purchase and sale of crude oil in 28 states located in the northeast, midwest, southeast and southwest United States. Sunoco, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries including Sunoco, Inc. (R&M) are collectively referred to as "Sunoco." Sunoco accounted for approximately 2 and 7 percent of the Partnership's total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the results of Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Sunoco Logistics Partners Operations L.P. and include the accounts of entities in which the Partnership has a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest is evidenced by either a controlling voting interest or a risk and rewards model that identifies the Partnership or one of its subsidiaries as the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation and noncontrolling interests in equity and net income are shown separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of income. Equity ownership interests in corporate joint ventures, in which the Partnership does not have a controlling financial interest, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial reporting. They do not include all disclosures normally made in financial statements contained in Form 10-K. In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods shown have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Partnership expects the interim increase in quantities of inventory to significantly decline by year end and therefore, has adjusted its interim LIFO calculation to produce a reasonable matching of the most recently incurred costs with current revenues. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year 2011.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for organization, consolidation and basis of presentation of financial statements disclosure.

2. Acquisitions

In May 2011, the Partnership acquired an 83.8 percent equity interest in Inland Corporation ("Inland"), which is the owner of 350 miles of active refined products pipelines in Ohio. The pipeline connects three refineries in Ohio to terminals and major markets in Ohio. The Partnership acquired its equity interest for approximately $99 million, net of cash received, through a purchase of a 27.0 percent equity interest from Shell Oil Company ("Shell") and a 56.8 percent equity interest from Sunoco. The 56.8 percent equity interest acquired from Sunoco is considered a transaction between entities under common control and therefore the assets and liabilities transferred have been recorded by the Partnership at Sunoco's carrying value. As the Partnership now has a controlling financial interest in Inland, the joint venture is reflected as a consolidated subsidiary of the Partnership from the date of the final acquisition and is included within the Refined Products Pipeline segment. The purchase was ultimately financed with a portion of the net proceeds from the Senior Notes offering in July 2011 (see Note 8).

The following information summarizes the estimated effects of the acquisition on the Partnership's balance sheet as of the acquisition date:


	Inland
	(in millions)
Increase in:
Current assets	$	3
Properties, plants & equipment, net		175
Current liabilities		(1	)
Other deferred credits and liabilities		(1	)
Deferred income taxes		(59	)
Noncontrolling interests		(18	)

Net cash paid for acquisition	$	99

In June 2011, the Partnership announced the agreement to acquire a refined products terminal, located in East Boston, Massachusetts from affiliates of ConocoPhillips for $56 million plus inventory. The terminal is the sole service provider of Logan International Airport under a long-term contract. The acquisition is expected to close within the third quarter 2011 and will be included within the Terminal Facilities segment as of the acquisition date.

In July 2011, the Partnership acquired the Eagle Point tank farm and related assets from Sunoco for $100 million. The tank farm is located in Westville, New Jersey and consists of approximately 5 million barrels of active storage for clean products and dark oils. The acquisition was funded by the issuance of $98 million of deferred distribution units to Sunoco, which represent a new class of units on which no distributions are paid, and an additional $2 million general partner interest. The new units convert to common units on the one-year anniversary of their issuance. The acquisition will be included within the Terminal Facilities segment as of the acquisition date.

In August 2011, the Partnership acquired a crude oil purchasing and marketing business from Texon L.P. ("Texon") for $205 million plus the fair market value of its crude oil inventory. The purchase consists of a lease crude business and gathering assets in 16 states, primarily in the western United States. The current crude oil volume of the business is approximately 75,000 barrels per day at the wellhead. The purchase was financed with a portion of the net proceeds from the Senior Notes offering in July 2011 (see Note 8). The acquisition will be included within the Crude Oil Pipeline segment as of the acquisition date.

Related Party Transactions	6 Months Ended
Related Party Transactions	Jun. 30, 2011
Related Party Transactions
Related Party Transactions	3. Related Party Transactions *Incentive Distribution Rights Exchange* In January 2010, the Partnership entered into a repurchase agreement with its general partner, whereby the Partnership agreed to the repurchase from the general partner the existing incentive distribution rights ("IDRs") for $201 million and issue new IDRs. Pursuant to this transaction, the Partnership executed the third amended and restated agreement of limited partnership. This new partnership agreement reflects the cancellation of the original IDRs and the authorization and issuance of the new IDRs. The Partnership ultimately financed the transaction with a portion of the proceeds from the February 2010 issuance of the 5.50 and 6.85 percent Senior Notes. *Promissory Note from Affiliate* In July 2010, the Partnership acquired a butane blending business from Texon L.P. The acquisition was partially funded by a three-year, subordinated, $100 million note from Sunoco, which bears interest at three-month LIBOR plus 275 basis points per annum. *Advances to/from Affiliate* The Partnership has a treasury services agreement with Sunoco pursuant to which it, among other things, participates in Sunoco's centralized cash management program. Under this program, all of the Partnership's cash receipts and cash disbursements are processed, together with those of Sunoco and its other subsidiaries, through Sunoco's cash accounts with a corresponding credit or charge to an intercompany account. The intercompany balances are settled periodically, but no less frequently than monthly. Amounts due from Sunoco earn interest at a rate equal to the average rate of the Partnership's third-party money market investments, while amounts due to Sunoco bear interest at a rate equal to the interest rate provided in the Operating Partnership's $395 million Credit Facility. *Administrative Services* Under the Omnibus Agreement, the Partnership pays Sunoco an annual administrative fee that includes expenses incurred by Sunoco and its affiliates to perform certain centralized corporate functions, such as legal, accounting, treasury, engineering, information technology, insurance, and other corporate services, including the administration of employee benefit plans. This fee was $5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The fee increased to $13 million for 2011 to cover shared management costs, including senior executives, which were previously recorded as a direct expense by the Partnership. The increase was also driven by a higher allocation of fees associated with corporate functions which were previously outsourced to third parties. This fee does not include the salaries of pipeline and terminal personnel or other employees of the general partner or the cost of their employee benefits. The Partnership has no employees, and reimburses Sunoco and its affiliates for these costs and other direct expenses incurred on the Partnership's behalf. These costs may be increased if the acquisition or construction of new assets or businesses requires an increase in the level of general and administrative services received by the Partnership. In addition to the annual administrative fee, selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of income include the allocation of shared insurance costs. The Partnership's share of allocated Sunoco employee benefit plan expenses, including noncontributory defined benefit retirement plans, defined contribution 401(k) plans, employee and retiree medical, dental and life insurance plans, incentive compensation plans and other such benefits are reflected in cost of products sold and operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of income. *Affiliated Revenues and Accounts Receivable, Affiliated Companies* The Partnership is party to various agreements with Sunoco to supply refined products and to provide pipeline and terminalling services. Affiliated revenues in the statements of income consist of sales of refined products and crude oil as well as the related provision, and services including pipeline transportation, terminalling, and storage and blending to Sunoco. Prior to March 2011, affiliated revenues included sales of crude oil to Sunoco, which were priced using market based rates. Sales of refined product are priced using market based rates under agreements which are negotiated annually. Service revenues are recognized based on published tariffs or negotiated rates under agreements. In March 2011, Sunoco completed the sale of its Toledo refinery to affiliates of PBF Holding Company LLC ("PBF"). Certain of the Partnership's agreements with Sunoco to supply or purchase crude oil and provide pipeline and terminalling services to support the Toledo refinery have been assigned to PBF or its agents in connection with the sale. The sale of the refinery is not expected to have a material impact on the Partnership's financial results. *Acquisitions* In May 2011, the Partnership acquired a controlling financial interest in Inland from Sunoco. The Partnership acquired its equity interest for approximately $99 million, net of cash received, through a purchase of a 27.0 percent equity interest from Shell and a 56.8 percent equity interest from Sunoco. The purchase price paid to Sunoco in connection with its 56.8 percent equity interest was approximately $73 million.

4. Net Income Per Unit Data

The general partner's interest in net income attributable to Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. ("net income attributable to the Partnership") consists of its 2 percent general partner interest and "incentive distributions," which are increasing percentages, up to 50 percent of quarterly distributions in excess of $0.50 per limited partner unit (see Note 11). The general partner was allocated net income attributable to the Partnership of $14 and $11 million (representing 15 and 22 percent of total net income attributable to the Partnership) for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively and $26 and $21 million (representing 18 and 22 percent of total net income attributable to the Partnership) for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Diluted net income attributable to the Partnership per limited partner unit is calculated by dividing limited partners' interest in net income by the sum of the weighted average number of limited partnership units outstanding and the dilutive effect of incentive unit awards (see Note 12), calculated using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the weighted average number of limited partner units used to compute basic net income attributable to the Partnership per limited partner unit to those used to compute diluted net income attributable to the Partnership per limited partner unit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

However, there are some states in which the Partnership operates where it is subject to both state and local income taxes. Substantially all of the income tax expense and income tax accruals reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements relate to the consolidation of Mid-Valley Pipeline Company ("Mid-Valley"), West Texas Gulf Pipe Line Company ("West Texas Gulf") and Inland, all of which are subject to income taxes for federal and state purposes. The Partnership also has deferred tax balances related to the difference between the book and tax bases of the assets and liabilities of Mid-Valley, West Texas Gulf and Inland.

Commitments And Contingent Liabilities	6 Months Ended
Commitments And Contingent Liabilities	Jun. 30, 2011
Commitments And Contingent Liabilities
Commitments And Contingent Liabilities	9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities The Partnership is subject to numerous federal, state and local laws which regulate the discharge of materials into the environment or that otherwise relate to the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations can result in liabilities and loss contingencies for remediation at the Partnership's facilities and at third-party or formerly owned sites. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, there were accrued liabilities for environmental remediation in the condensed consolidated balance sheets of $4 million. The accrued liabilities for environmental remediation do not include any amounts attributable to unasserted claims, nor have any recoveries from insurance been assumed. Charges against income for environmental remediation totaled $1 million and less than $1 million for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively and $3 and $1 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total future costs for environmental remediation activities will depend upon, among other things, the identification of any additional sites, the determination of the extent of the contamination at each site, the timing and nature of required remedial actions, the technology available and needed to meet the various existing legal requirements, the nature and extent of future environmental laws, inflation rates and the determination of the Partnership's liability at multi-party sites, if any, in light of uncertainties with respect to joint and several liability, and the number, participation levels and financial viability of other parties. Sunoco has indemnified the Partnership for 30 years from environmental and toxic tort liabilities related to the assets contributed to the Partnership that arose from the operation of such assets prior to the closing of the February 2002 initial public offering ("IPO"). Sunoco has indemnified the Partnership for 100 percent of all losses asserted within the first 21 years of closing of the IPO. Sunoco's share of liability for claims asserted thereafter will decrease by 10 percent per year. For example, for a claim asserted during the twenty-third year after closing of the IPO, Sunoco would be required to indemnify the Partnership for 80 percent of its loss. There is no monetary cap on the amount of indemnity coverage provided by Sunoco. The Partnership has agreed to indemnify Sunoco for events and conditions associated with the operation of the Partnership's assets that occur on or after the closing of the IPO and for environmental and toxic tort liabilities to the extent Sunoco is not required to indemnify the Partnership. Sunoco has also indemnified the Partnership for liabilities other than environmental and toxic tort liabilities related to the assets contributed to the Partnership, that arose out of Sunoco's ownership and operation of the assets prior to the closing of the IPO and that are asserted within 10 years after closing of the IPO. In addition, Sunoco has also indemnified the Partnership from liabilities relating to certain defects in title for the assets contributed to the Partnership; liabilities associated with failure to obtain certain consents and permits necessary to conduct its business that may arise within 10 years after closing of the IPO; liabilities relating to legal actions currently pending against Sunoco or its affiliates; and liabilities related to events and conditions associated with any assets retained by Sunoco or its affiliates. Management of the Partnership does not believe that any liabilities which may arise from claims indemnified by Sunoco would be material in relation to the financial position of the Partnership at June 30, 2011. There are certain other pending legal proceedings related to matters arising after the IPO that are not indemnified by Sunoco. Management believes that any liabilities that may arise from these legal proceedings will not be material in relation to the financial position of the Partnership at June 30, 2011.

Cash Distributions

11. Cash Distributions

Within 45 days after the end of each quarter, the Partnership distributes all cash on hand at the end of the quarter, less reserves established by the general partner at its discretion. This is defined as "available cash" in the partnership agreement. The general partner has broad discretion to establish cash reserves that it determines are necessary or appropriate to properly conduct the Partnership's business. The Partnership will make quarterly distributions to the extent there is sufficient cash from operations after the establishment of cash reserves and the payment of fees and expenses, including payments to the general partner.

If cash distributions exceed $0.50 per unit in a quarter, the general partner will receive increasing percentages, up to 50 percent, of the cash distributed in excess of that amount. These distributions are referred to as "incentive distributions." The percentage interests shown for the unitholders and the general partner for the minimum quarterly distribution are also applicable to quarterly distribution amounts that are less than the minimum quarterly distribution.

In January 2010, the Partnership repurchased, and its general partner transferred and assigned to the Partnership for cancellation, the IDRs held by the general partner under the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended, as consideration for (i) the Partnership's issuance to the general partner of new IDRs issued under the Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership and (ii) the issuance to the general partner of a promissory note in the amount of $201 million. In February 2010, the Operating Partnership issued the 5.50 and 6.85 percent Senior Notes. A portion of the net proceeds from this offering was used to repay in full this promissory note.

The following table shows the target distribution levels and distribution "splits" between the general partner and the holders of the Partnership's limited partnership units under the new IDRs:


	Total Quarterly Distribution Target Amount	Marginal Percentage Interest in Distributions
	Total Quarterly Distribution Target Amount	General Partner			Unitholders

First Target Distribution	up to $0.500		2	%		98	%
Second Target Distribution	above $0.500 up to $0.575		15	%*		85	%
Third Target Distribution	above $0.575 up to $1.5825		37	%*		63	%
Thereafter	above $1.5825		50	%*		50	%

*	Includes 2 percent general partner interest.

The distributions paid by the Partnership for the period from January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011 are summarized below. The table excludes the distribution of $201 million paid to the general partner in connection with the repurchase and exchange of the general partner's IDRs.


Date Cash Distribution Paid	Cash Distribution per Limited Partner Unit		Total Cash Distribution to the Limited Partners		Total Cash Distribution to the General Partner

On July 26, 2011, Sunoco Partners LLC, the general partner of Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P., declared a cash distribution of $1.215 per limited partnership unit ($4.86 annualized), representing the distribution for the second quarter 2011. The $53 million distribution, including $13 million to the general partner, will be paid on August 12, 2011 to unitholders of record on August 8, 2011. The change in distribution "splits" resulted in a $6 million reduction of the general partner's cash distribution for the second quarter 2011 as compared to the previous methodology.

Derivatives And Risk Management

Jun. 30, 2011

Derivatives And Risk Management

Derivatives And Risk Management

13. Derivatives and Risk Management

The Partnership is exposed to various market risks, including volatility in crude oil and refined product prices, counterparty credit risk and interest rate risk.

Price Risk Management

The Partnership is exposed to risks associated with changes in the market price of crude oil and refined products as a result of the forecasted purchase or sale of these products. These risks are primarily associated with price volatility related to pre-existing or anticipated purchases and sales. Price changes are often caused by shifts in the supply and demand for these commodities, as well as their locations. In order to manage such exposure, the Partnership's policy is (i) to only purchase crude oil and refined products for which sales contracts have been executed or for which ready markets exist, (ii) to structure sales contracts so that price fluctuations do not materially impact the margins earned, and (iii) not to acquire and hold physical inventory, futures contracts or other derivative instruments for the purpose of speculating on commodity price changes. Although the Partnership seeks to maintain a balanced inventory position within its commodity inventories, net unbalances may occur for short periods of time due to production, transportation and delivery variances. When physical inventory builds or draws do occur, the Partnership continuously manages the variance to a balanced position over a period of time. Pursuant to the Partnership's risk management policy, derivative contracts may be used to hedge or reduce exposure to price risk associated with acquired inventory or forecasted physical transactions.

The physical contracts related to the Partnership's crude oil and refined products businesses that qualify as derivatives have been designated as normal purchases and sales and are accounted for using traditional accrual accounting. The Partnership accounts for derivatives that do not qualify as normal purchases and sales at fair value. The Partnership does not utilize derivative instruments to manage its exposure to prices related to crude oil purchase and sale activities. The Partnership does utilize derivatives such as swaps, futures and other derivative instruments to mitigate the risk associated with market movements in the price of refined products. These derivative contracts act as a hedging mechanism against the volatility of prices by allowing the Partnership to transfer this price risk to counterparties who are able and willing to bear it.

While all derivative instruments utilized by the Partnership represent economic hedges, certain of these derivatives are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Such derivatives include certain contracts that were entered into and closed during the same accounting period and a limited number of contracts for which there is not sufficient correlation to the related items being economically hedged.

For refined product derivative contracts that are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, all realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the statement of income during the current period. For refined product derivative contracts that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles, the portion of the gain or loss on the derivative contract that is effective in offsetting the variable cash flows associated with the hedged forecasted transaction is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative contract in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any (i.e., the ineffective portion), is recognized in earnings during the current period.

As of and for the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the impact of the Partnership's hedging activities was not material to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Partnership had open derivative positions of 3 million and less than 1 million barrels of refined products at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The derivatives outstanding as of June 30, 2011 vary in duration but do not extend beyond one year. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Partnership had the following derivative asset and liability balances:


	June 30, 2011			December 31, 2010

Derivative assets	$	4		$	2
Derivative liabilities		(3	)		(6	)

Credit Risk Management

The Partnership faces counterparty credit risk as a result of our use of financial derivative contracts. The Partnership's counterparties consist primarily of financial institutions and major integrated oil companies. This concentration of counterparties may impact the Partnership's overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, in that the counterparties may be similarly affected by changes in economic, regulatory or other conditions.

The Partnership maintains credit policies with regard to its counterparties that management believes minimize the overall credit risk. The Partnership's customers' credit positions are analyzed prior to the extension of credit and periodically after credit has been extended. The Partnership manages its exposure to derivative counterparty credit risk through credit analysis, credit approvals, credit limits, and monitoring procedures. The Partnership does not have over-the-counter derivatives that are entered into with counterparties outside of regulated exchanges.

Interest Rate Risk Management

The Partnership has interest rate risk exposure for changes in interest rates related to its outstanding borrowings. The Partnership manages its exposure to changes in interest rates through the use of a combination of fixed- and variable-rate debt. At June 30, 2011, the Partnership had $365 million of variable-rate borrowings under the revolving credit facilities and promissory notes from affiliated companies.

Fair Value Measurements	6 Months Ended
Fair Value Measurements	Jun. 30, 2011
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements	14. Fair Value Measurements The Partnership applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value under current accounting rules, primarily derivatives. The assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are not material to the Partnership's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Partnership determines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Partnership utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs (levels 1 and 2) and minimize the use of unobservable inputs (level 3) within the fair value hierarchy established by the Accounting Standards Codification. The Partnership generally applies the "market approach" to determine fair value. This method uses pricing and other information generated by market transactions for identical or comparable assets and liabilities. Assets and liabilities are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level (least observable) input that is significant to the measurement in its entirety. The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined based on the Partnership's assessment of available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The Partnership's current assets (other than derivatives and inventories) and current liabilities are financial instruments and most of these items are recorded at cost in the consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature. The Partnership's derivatives are measured and recorded at fair value, based on observable market prices and other valuation methodologies. At June 30, 2011, the fair values of the credit facilities and the promissory note to Sunoco approximate their carrying value, as these borrowings bear interest based upon short-term floating market interest rates. The estimated fair value of the Senior Notes is based on quoted market prices. The estimated aggregate fair value of the Senior Notes at June 30, 2011 is $1.2 billion, compared to the carrying amount of $1.1 billion. The estimated aggregate fair value of the Senior Notes at December 31, 2010 was $1.2 billion, compared to the carrying amount of $1.1 billion.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for the fair value of financial instruments (as defined), including financial assets and financial liabilities (collectively, as defined), and the measurements of those instruments as well as disclosures related to the fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities. Such disclosures about the financial instruments, assets, and liabilities would include: (1) the fair value of the required items together with their carrying amounts (as appropriate); (2) for items for which it is not practicable to estimate fair value, disclosure would include: (a) information pertinent to estimating fair value (including, carrying amount, effective interest rate, and maturity, and (b) the reasons why it is not practicable to estimate fair value; (3) significant concentrations of credit risk including: (a) information about the activity, region, or economic characteristics identifying a concentration, (b) the maximum amount of loss the entity is exposed to based on the gross fair value of the related item, (c) policy for requiring collateral or other security and information as to accessing such collateral or security, and (d) the nature and brief description of such collateral or security; (4) quantitative information about market risks and how such risks are managed; (5) for items measured on both a recurring and nonrecurring basis information regarding the inputs used to develop the fair value measurement; and (6) for items presented in the financial statement for which fair value measurement is elected: (a) information necessary to understand the reasons for the election, (b) discussion of the effect of fair value changes on earnings, (c) a description of [similar groups] items for which the election is made and the relation thereof to the balance sheet, the aggregate carrying value of items included in the balance sheet that are not eligible for the election; (7) all other required (as defined) and desired information.
