Phillips 66’s fully owned subsidiary Phillips 66 Project Development, which holds a majority of the outstanding common units of the partnership, has voted to approve the deal.

Phillips 66 anticipates the deal to close in the first quarter of 2022.

Phillips 66 Partners is a publicly listed master limited partnership. It was created by Phillips 66 in 2013 to operate in the midstream sector.

It is engaged in operating, developing and acquiring primarily fee-based crude oil, natural gas liquids pipelines, refined petroleum products, and terminals and other midstream assets.

In August 2021, Reuters reported that Phillips 66 was in talks with a potential buyer for its 50-year-old Alliance refinery in the US state of Louisiana.

Located on the Mississippi River in Belle Chasse, the Alliance refinery has a capacity of 255,000bpd. It mainly processes light, low-sulphur crude oil.
