Prompt Price represents calendar workday average of prices quoted that month for crude delivered in immediately following month(s). All prices and differentials listed are in Dollars per Barrel unless otherwise noted
Crack Spread Calculation: Mid-Con = ((Chicago CBOB Gasoline x 2 + Chicago Ultra Low Sulfur Distillate)/3) - WTI Prompt Price Data Sources: NYMEX, Argus, and MPC Estimate USGC = ((U.S. Gulf Coast (USGC) CBOB Gasoline x 2 + USGC Ultra Low Sulfur Distillate) /3) - MEH Prompt Price
West Coast = ((LA California Reformulated Gasoline Blendstock for Oxygenate Blending (CARBOB) x 2+ LA California Air Resources Board (CARB) Diesel)/3) - ANS Prompt Price
Blended Mid-Con/USGC/West Coast crack spread is weighted 40%/42%/18% based on MPC's refining capacity by PADD.
Blended WTI/MEH/ANS prompt crude price is weighted 40%/42%/18% based on blended crack spread.
Delivered differentials (versus Prompt WTI) for the trade month period beginning with the 26th calendar day two months prior to the prompt month through the 25th day one month prior to the prompt month. The exception is the Maya delivered differential which is calculated on a prompt calendar month basis.
MPC's typical sweet crude oil basket could consist of the following crudes: Bakken, Brent, MEH, WTI-Cushing, WTI-Midland MPC's typical sour crude oil basket could consist of the following crudes: ANS, ASCI, Maya, Western Canadian Select.
Delivered cost is based on WTI prompt price plus each respective grade's delivered differential and does not include market structure or other expenses such as transportation, demurrage, etc. Market structure effects are calculated as a separate adjustment (see column 16 and (G) above).
Delivered month market structure (roll). Negative values represent contango and positive values represent backwardation. Approximately 50% of MPC's crude oil acquisition volume uses market structure in its acquisition price formula.

Prompt Price represents calendar workday average of prices quoted that month for crude delivered in immediately following month(s). Switched from LLS to MEH for USGC beginning 1Q21 All prices and differentials listed are in Dollars per Barrel unless otherwise noted
Crack Spread Calculation: Mid-Con = ((Chicago CBOB Gasoline x 2 + Chicago Ultra Low Sulfur Distillate)/3) - WTI Prompt Price
USGC = ((U.S. Gulf Coast (USGC) CBOB Gasoline x 2 + USGC Ultra Low Sulfur Distillate) /3) - MEH Prompt Price (note: switched from LLS to MEH for USGC beginning 1Q21)
West Coast = ((LA California Reformulated Gasoline Blendstock for Oxygenate Blending (CARBOB) x 2+ LA California Air Resources Board (CARB) Diesel)/3) - ANS Prompt Price
Blended Mid-Con/USGC/West Coast crack spread is weighted beginning 2Q24 40%/42%/18% based on MPC's refining capacity by PADD, with prior periods weighted 40%/40%/20%.
Blended WTI/MEH/ANS prompt crude price is weighted beginning 2Q24 40%/42%/18% based on blended crack spread, with prior periods weighted 40%/40%/20%.
Data Sources: NYMEX, Argus, and MPC Estimate
Delivered differentials (versus Prompt WTI) for the trade month period beginning with the 26th calendar day two months prior to the prompt month through the 25th day one month prior to the prompt month. The exception is the Maya delivered differential which is calculated on a prompt calendar month basis. MPC's typical sweet crude oil basket could consist of the following crudes: Bakken, Brent, MEH, WTI-Cushing, WTI-Midland
MPC's typical sour crude oil basket could consist of the following crudes: ANS, ASCI, Maya, Western Canadian Select.
Delivered cost is based on WTI prompt price plus each respective grade's delivered differential and does not include market structure or other expenses such as transportation, demurrage, etc. Market structure effects are calculated as a separate adjustment (see column 16 and (G) above).
Delivered month market structure (roll). Negative values represent contango and positive values represent backwardation. Approximately 50% of MPC's crude oil acquisition volume uses market structure in its acquisition price formula.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, MPC established a Renewable Diesel segment, which includes renewable diesel activities historically reported in the Refining & Marketing segment. Quarterly data in this Market Data file for 2023 and 2024 have been recast for comparability. Quarterly data has not been recast prior to 2023.
