21. Leases

  1. Leases

Lessee

We lease a wide variety of facilities and equipment under leases from third parties, including land and building space, office and field equipment, storage facilities and transportation equipment, while our related party leases primarily relate to ground leases associated with our refining logistics assets. Our remaining lease terms range from less thanone year to 94 years. Some long-term leases include renewal options ranging fromone year to 50 years and, in certain leases, also include purchase options. Renewal options and termination options were not included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities since it was determined they were not reasonably certain to be exercised.

Certain fee-based transportation and storage services agreements with MPC and third parties and certain fee-based natural gas transportation and processing agreements with third parties are accounted for as operating leases under ASC 842. These agreements have remaining terms ranging from less thanone year to 11 years with renewal options ranging fromone year tofive years, with some agreements having multiple renewal options.

MPLX did not elect to use the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for lessor arrangements. The tables below represent the portion of the contract allocated to the lease component based on relative standalone selling price. We elected the practical expedient to carry forward historical classification conclusions until a modification of an existing agreement occurs. Once a modification occurs, the amended agreement is required to be assessed under ASC 842, to determine whether a reclassification of the lease is required.

Lease revenues included on the Consolidated Statements of Income during 2024, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

During the third quarter of 2022, the approved expansion of a gathering and compression system triggered the first assessment of the related third-party agreement under ASC 842. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2022, we executed amendments to certain related party storage, transportation and terminal service agreements between MPLX and MPC to provide for reimbursements for projects, changes to minimum volume commitments or to extend the term of the agreement. The changes required the embedded leases within these agreements to be reassessed under ASC 842. As a result of these lease assessments, certain leases were reclassified from an operating lease to a sales-type lease. Accordingly, the underlying property, plant and equipment, net, and associated deferred revenue, if any, were derecognized and the present value of the future lease payments and the unguaranteed residual value of the assets were recorded as a net investment in sales-type lease during the respective periods.

The following presents the consolidated financial statement impact of related-party and third-party sales-type leases, on commencement or modification date. These transactions, including any related gains recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income, were non-cash transactions. There were no significant transactions to report for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
