Crude slate

Heavy, high-sulfur crude oil and low-sulfur acidic hydrocarbons (per an engineering-industry paper on the refinery's marine docks). As of January 2026, Phillips 66 executives stated the Lake Charles and Sweeny complexes could process a couple hundred thousand bpd of Venezuelan crude if available and economic.

Phillips 66 CFO stated the Lake Charles and Sweeny refineries could process a couple hundred thousand bpd of Venezuelan crude if available and economically supported; the company's Gulf Coast refining group ran at 99% utilization in Q3 2025, its highest since 2018. source
2020-10-09 outage
Preemptive shutdown ahead of Hurricane Delta's landfall; the refining complex restarted by October 20, 2020, with minimal reported damage to the complex, the Gulf Coast Lubricants Plant (Excel Paralubes), and area terminals/pipelines. 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.
