crude in pipeline Cushing Connect / local Cushing pipeline access
HF Sinclair holds an ownership interest in Cushing Connect, which owns a crude storage terminal at Cushing and a pipeline running from Cushing to the Tulsa Refineries (East + West combined). Local pipelines also give access to regional Oklahoma crude production plus U.S. onshore and Canadian crude (the Tulsa complex runs up to 10,000 bpd of sour Canadian crude).

products out pipeline Magellan Pipeline
Magellan-owned/operated pipelines carry refined products from the Tulsa Refineries to Colorado, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and Arkansas. Under Item 245 of its Oklahoma tariff, Magellan transfers product to and from the Holly East and Holly West facilities and pumps product over from the Tulsa-Holly facility to its Glenpool-Explorer facility. Explorer Pipeline is reached that way, through Magellan, and not by a direct tie from the refinery.		 Magellan transfer lines at Tulsa. Magellan Pipeline Company's Oklahoma tariff O.C.C. No. 14.29.0 (effective July 1, 2026), Item 245, names the Holly East, OK facility and the Tulsa-Holly, OK facility. gasoline distillate jet fuel source

  1. 2026-05-11 fire

    Fire at the HF Sinclair refinery in west Tulsa. The refinery's own fire brigade handled the fire and outside crews returned to service. The report does not say whether it was at the East or the West plant. source

Rates are pipeline line-haul transcribed from published FERC tariffs; every figure cites its tariff and item. Cost to serve (netback) adds origin spot price and destination fees. "Confirmed" links match a tariff delivery point to the facility; "same city" means the point is in the facility's city — plausible, not proof; "per research" means the facility's research profile names the pipeline as an outlet.
