Midstream's third-quarter earnings were $75 million, compared with $39 million in the second quarter of 2016.

Transportation earnings for the third quarter of 2016 were $63 million, in line with the prior quarter, as lower volumes and higher seasonal maintenance costs were largely offset by a favorable settlement received by Rockies Express Pipeline, LLC. Volumes for the quarter were primarily impacted by scheduled refinery downtime.

The NGL business had third-quarter earnings of $3 million, an improvement of $20 million from the second quarter, primarily due to improved results from seasonal propane and butane trading and storage activity, as well as the timing of project expenses related to the Freeport LPG Export Terminal.

The company’s equity investment in DCP Midstream generated earnings of $9 million in the third quarter, compared with a $9 million loss in the prior quarter. DCP Midstream's results benefited from improved commodity prices and asset reliability, as well as the impact of contract restructuring efforts and lower costs.

Chemicals' third-quarter earnings were $101 million, compared with $190 million in the second quarter of 2016. Chemicals' earnings in the third quarter of 2016 included a charge of $89 million related to an impairment of a CPChem joint venture. Chemicals' third-quarter adjusted earnings were $190 million, consistent with the prior quarter.

During the third quarter, CPChem's O&P business contributed $165 million of earnings to Phillips 66's Chemicals segment. The $5 million decrease from the prior quarter was primarily due to unplanned downtime, partially offset by improved polyethylene chain margins. Global utilization for O&P was 91 percent.

CPChem's Specialties, Aromatics and Styrenics business contributed $31 million of adjusted earnings in the third quarter, an increase of $6 million from the prior quarter, primarily from improved benzene margins.

Refining's earnings in the third quarter of 2016 included a benefit of $43 million related to a legal award.

Refining's adjusted earnings were $134 million in the third quarter, compared with $152 million in the second quarter of 2016. The decrease in adjusted earnings was largely driven by higher planned turnaround expenses, partially offset by lower routine maintenance costs. Realized margins were $7.23 per barrel, in line with the prior quarter's $7.13 per barrel.

Phillips 66’s worldwide crude utilization rate was 97 percent and its clean product yield was 84 percent in the third quarter. Pretax turnaround costs for the third quarter were $117 million.

The increase was largely due to improved domestic and international realized marketing margins, as demand remained strong during the quarter. Refined product exports in the third quarter were 141,000 barrels per day (BPD), versus 174,000 BPD in the prior quarter.

Phillips 66’s Specialties businesses generated earnings of $39 million during the third quarter. The $9 million increase from the prior quarter was mainly due to improved base oil margins and volumes.

Financial Position, Liquidity and Return of Capital

Phillips 66 generated $883 million of cash from operations during the third quarter. Cash from operations was reduced by a pension plan contribution of $317 million. In addition, approximately $300 million was raised at Phillips 66 Partners (PSXP) in a public equity offering.

During the quarter, Phillips 66 funded $661 million of capital expenditures and investments and returned $508 million to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases. Since July 2012, the company has returned $12.8 billion to shareholders in the form of dividends, share repurchases and share exchange. Phillips 66 ended the quarter with 521 million shares outstanding.

As of Sept. 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents were $2.3 billion, and debt was $8.9 billion, including $1.1 billion of debt at PSXP. The company's consolidated debt-to-capital ratio and net-debt-to-capital ratio were 27 percent and 21 percent, respectively.

Strategic Update

In Midstream, the Freeport LPG Export Terminal is nearing mechanical completion, with commercial operation expected before year-end. The export terminal will be capable of loading eight cargoes per month, which will be a combination of term contract and spot cargoes.

Phillips 66 has a 25 percent interest in joint ventures to develop the more than 470,000 BPD Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline (ETCOP) projects. DAPL is approximately 75 percent complete. The project awaits the issuance of an easement from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to complete work beneath the Missouri River. ETCOP is complete and ready for commissioning. Commercial operations on the combined pipeline system are expected to begin in the first quarter of 2017.

Phillips 66 continues to expand its Beaumont Terminal, with 2 million barrels of additional crude storage to be commissioned in the fourth quarter and 1.2 million barrels of additional products storage expected to be available by mid-2017.

In October 2016, Phillips 66 contributed 30 crude, refined products and NGL logistics assets to Phillips 66 Partners for $1.3 billion. The consideration consisted of $1.1 billion in cash, which Phillips 66 Partners financed with the proceeds from a public debt issuance, and $196 million in PSXP units.

CPChem's U.S. Gulf Coast Petrochemicals Project, which consists of a world-scale ethane cracker and two polyethylene derivative units, is approximately 85 percent complete. The polyethylene units are expected to be completed by mid-2017, and completion of the cracker is expected in the second half of 2017. This project will increase CPChem's global ethylene and polyethylene capacity by approximately one-third.

In Refining, debottlenecking and yield improvement projects at the Wood River Refinery were completed in the third quarter, increasing heavy crude processing capability. The Billings Refinery is increasing its Canadian heavy crude processing capability to 100 percent. This project is expected to be complete in the first half of 2017. The Bayway Refinery is modernizing its fluid catalytic cracking unit to increase clean product yield, with expected completion in 2018. In addition, the Whitegate Refinery was sold during the third quarter.

Phillips 66 capital expenditures for 2016 are expected to be approximately $3 billion, reduced from the $3.9 billion budgeted for 2016. This reduction primarily reflects Midstream project cancellations and deferrals, as well as the impact of project financing. Capital expenditures for 2017 are expected to be less than $3 billion. Additional information on the 2017 capital budget will be provided in December.

Later today, members of Phillips 66 executive management will host a webcast at noon EDT to discuss the company’s third-quarter performance and provide an update on strategic initiatives.
