Sunoco 2009 Annual Report Download - page 12

Approximately 20 percent of Sunoco’s crude oil supply (excluding the amount pertaining to the Tulsa
refinery) during 2009 came from Nigeria. Some of the crude oil producing areas of this West African country
have experienced political and ethnic violence as well as labor disruptions in recent years, which has resulted in
the shutdown of a small portion of total Nigerian crude oil production during that time. The lost crude oil
production in Nigeria did not have a material impact on Sunoco’s operations. From time to time, Sunoco has
used other sweet crude oil alternatives in addition to the Nigerian grades. The Company believes these other
sources of light-sweet crude oil will continue to be available in the event it elects to continue to diversify its
crude oil slate for economic reasons or in the event it is unable to obtain crude oil from Nigeria in the future.
The following table sets forth information concerning the source of the Company’s crude oil purchases for
its Marcus Hook, Philadelphia, Eagle Point and Toledo refineries (in thousands of barrels daily):

Feedstocks can be moved between Refining and Supply’s refineries in the Northeast by barge, truck and
rail. In addition, an interrefinery pipeline leased from Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. enables the transfer of
unfinished stocks, including butanes, naphtha, distillate blendstocks and gasoline blendstocks between the
Philadelphia and Marcus Hook refineries. Finished products are delivered to customers via the pipeline and
terminal network owned and operated by Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. (see “Logistics” below) as well as by
third-party pipelines and barges and by truck and rail.
