| crude in | marine | Barbers Point single-point mooring (SPM) terminal Tankers discharge crude at a single point mooring off Barbers Point. Par Hawaii ordered a replacement buoy from SOFEC in March 2025, designed for tankers up to 150,000 DWT in 31 meters of water and able to transfer crude oil, bunker fuel and white oil. A March 2026 report said the buoy was due in Honolulu in April 2026 with installation planned for July 2026. |

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.
