crude in pipeline Minnesota Pipe Line
Minnesota Pipe Line Company carries crude oil to the Flint Hills Resources Pine Bend refinery and to the St. Paul Park refinery. It is owned by Marathon, Flint Hills Resources and Trof, Inc. and operated by Flint Hills Resources. Enbridge does not deliver at the refinery: its pipelines pass through Clearbrook, and the oil moves from there to the Twin Cities on the four lines of the Minnesota Pipeline.

products out truck rack Western Refining Terminals truck rack (IRS T-41-MN-3404)
The IRS terminal list carries T-41-MN-3404, Western Refining Terminals, 100 West Third Street, St. Paul Park, the only IRS terminal in the town. The Minnesota House Research report (2018) says the St. Paul Park refinery has a petroleum product terminal at its facility. Marathon's April 2024 fact sheet says products leave the refinery by truck.

products out pipeline Magellan Pipeline
Magellan's Minnesota Intrastate Schedule No. 30 (effective July 1, 2026) names St. Paul Park as an origin with Minneapolis (Roseville) and Pine Bend, and F.E.R.C. No. 160.59.0 lists St Paul Park, MN in the Minneapolis origin group. Marathon's April 2024 fact sheet says products are delivered from the refinery by pipeline. St. Paul Park is also a line-haul-only destination in both tariffs, with no carrier terminal.

products out rail Canadian Pacific (now CPKC)
The Minnesota DOT river terminal directory (March 2013) lists CP as the rail carrier at the refinery. Marathon's April 2024 fact sheet says products leave the refinery by rail and lists shipper awards from BNSF Railway and CP Rail.

Pipeline reach

This refinery injects at tariff origin points, but those systems’ rates haven’t been transcribed yet.

Substitutes

Other refineries injecting into the same pipelines — the supply that could backfill an outage here.

Events

No events on record.

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.
