What Genesis Energy does

Genesis Energy, L.P. is a publicly traded master limited partnership (MLP) headquartered in Houston, Texas (NYSE: GEL), that operates as a midstream energy infrastructure provider serving integrated and large independent energy companies developing large-reservoir, long-lived crude oil and natural gas properties in the Gulf of America. The partnership operates four interconnected business segments: Offshore Pipeline Transportation (approximately 2,400 miles of pipelines transporting crude oil and natural gas from deepwater Gulf of America reservoirs to Gulf Coast refineries); Marine Transportation (Genesis Marine, a Jones Act compliant fleet of inland and offshore boats and barges plus one ocean-going tanker with approximately 3.5 million barrels of capacity, serving Gulf Coast, East Coast, Great Lakes, Intracoastal Waterway, and major river systems); Sulfur Services, operating as TDC, which uses a proprietary closed-loop, non-combustion technology at 11 sulfur removal units to treat sour gas streams at host refineries while producing sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) and caustic soda (NaOH) for copper mining, pulp and paper, and other industrial customers; and Onshore Transportation & Services, an integrated suite of approximately 4.2 million barrels of storage capacity, pipelines, trucks, terminals, and rail unloading facilities along the Gulf Coast that links offshore volumes to downstream demand.

Revenue is generated primarily through fee-based contractual arrangements rather than commodity exposure, with approximately 65% of offshore pipeline production committed under take-or-pay transportation agreements that provide stable, predictable cash flows. The partnership completed the $1.0 billion sale of its Alkali (soda ash) business in February 2025 and used proceeds for balance sheet strengthening and debt reduction; in early 2026 it executed a $750 million 6.75% senior notes issuance due 2034 to refinance higher-cost 7.75% notes due 2028, while also extending its $900 million revolving credit facility and repurchasing Series A convertible preferred units, actions expected to reduce annual financing costs by approximately $12 million. As of April 2026 the partnership's market capitalization was approximately $2.17 billion, full-year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA was approximately $544 million, Q1 2026 revenue was $446.55 million, and management is guiding to 15-20% Adjusted EBITDA growth in 2026 over normalized 2025 levels of approximately $500-510 million.

Revenue model

1. Offshore Pipeline Transportation: Fee-based pipeline transportation services for crude oil and natural gas produced from deepwater Gulf of America reservoirs, providing critical infrastructure to energy companies. Approximately 65% of production is under take-or-pay transportation agreements providing stable cash flows.
2. Marine Transportation Services: Jones Act compliant marine transportation of crude oil and intermediate refined products along Gulf Coast, East Coast, Great Lakes, Intracoastal Waterway, and major river systems
3. Sulfur Services (TDC): Production and marketing of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) and caustic soda (NaOH) through proprietary emissions reduction technology at refineries. NaHS is sold to copper mining, pulp and paper, and other industrial customers.
4. Onshore Transportation & Services: Movement of crude oil volumes received from offshore pipeline infrastructure to refineries and other demand centers along the Gulf Coast using pipelines, trucks, terminals, and rail facilities
