Crude in & products out

From refinery research; each row links its source.
DirectionModeRoutePoint / originProductsSource
crude in pipeline Keystone Pipeline
Keystone carries Canadian crude from Hardisty, Alberta, to Steele City, Nebraska, and on to the Wood River Refinery in Roxana and the Patoka hub. South Bow has owned the line since October 1, 2024, when TC Energy spun off its liquids business. The source is an encyclopedia entry; the Keystone tariff was not read.

crude in pipeline Platte Pipeline (Express-Platte system)
Platte Pipe Line Company's index of tariffs dated December 15, 2020 lists crude petroleum from Casper Station, Wyoming, to Wood River Station in Madison County, Illinois. The tie from Wood River Station to the refinery is not stated in the index.

crude in pipeline Capwood Pipeline (Plains)
The Plains-operated Capwood pipeline delivers roughly 85,000 bpd from Patoka, IL, diversifying Wood River's crude slate.

crude in pipeline Ozark Pipeline
The 433-mile, 22-inch Ozark line originates in Cushing, Oklahoma, and terminates in Wood River, Illinois. Oil & Gas Journal reported in February 2017 that an MPLX unit was acquiring the line. The source does not say in so many words that the line delivers into the refinery.

Phillips 66 Carrier LLC FERC No. 4.24.0 lists Roxana, Madison County, as the origin and Hartford, Madison County, as the destination. A second leg runs from Hartford to Explorer Pipeline at Wood River. Hartford is the location of the Phillips 66 Pipeline terminal (IRS terminal T-37-IL-3353).

products out pipeline Explorer Pipeline
The connection is not at the plant. The Phillips 66 Carrier tariff carries product from Roxana to Hartford and from Hartford to Explorer PL at Wood River, and says limited tankage and operating constraints determine which products are made available to Explorer. Explorer's Wood River and St. Louis area sketch (revised April 2022) shows Phillips 66 with three origin meters and one delivery meter.

products out pipeline Ozark Pipeline
Current sourcing states Enbridge's ~215,000-bpd Ozark Pipeline 'runs from Phillips 66's Wood River refinery in Roxana to a storage terminal in Cushing, Okla.' -- i.e., the pipeline's current direction is OUT of Wood River toward Cushing (used for repositioning surplus/blended crude), not into the refinery. Historically (pre-2011) Ozark ran the opposite direction, Cushing-to-Wood River.

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.
