(Thomson Reuters ONE) -


* Reported third-quarter earnings of $145 million, or $0.27 per diluted share
* Results include a $267 million impairment charge (or $0.31 per diluted
share) related to the Sandpiper Pipeline project
* Announced strategic initiatives to enhance shareholder value

FINDLAY, Ohio, Oct. 27, 2016 - Marathon Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: MPC) today
reported 2016 third-quarter earnings of $145 million, or $0.27 per diluted
share, compared with $948 million, or $1.76 per diluted share, a year ago.
Third-quarter 2016 earnings include a $267 million impairment charge, or $0.31
per diluted share, to impair MPC's investment in the Sandpiper Pipeline project
due to the withdrawal of regulatory applications for the project.

"MPC continues to benefit from the diversified nature of its business," said
Gary R. Heminger, MPC chairman, president and chief executive officer. "Our
Speedway and midstream businesses contributed more than $450 million of combined
segment income in the third quarter, demonstrating the importance of this stable
earnings base to our results."

Consistent with its long-term focus on value creation, in a separate release
this morning, MPC announced several strategic actions to enhance shareholder
value, primarily focused on its portfolio of high-quality midstream assets. The
strategic initiatives include an aggressive dropdown strategy to support
increased limited and general partner distributions from MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX),
the master limited partnership sponsored by MPC, and to create value for
investors. MPC will also evaluate other opportunities to highlight and capture
the value in its general partner interest in MPLX and optimize the cost of
capital for the partnership. In addition, MPC plans to review changes to its
segment reporting in connection with these actions.

"The initiatives announced today are designed to unlock additional value from




our robust portfolio of midstream assets and to further benefit from the value-
enhancing platform we have established with MPLX. We will be moving ahead
expeditiously on each of these actions, while continuing to capture the
compelling benefits of MPC's integrated and diversified model," said Heminger.

For the third quarter, the midstream segment, which includes MPLX, delivered
solid results supported by increases in gathering, processing and fractionation
volumes. MPLX continues to drive exceptional growth opportunities, supporting a
diverse set of producer customers in some of the nation's most prolific shale
plays and positioning it well to benefit from a rising commodity price
environment.

Additionally, in October, MPLX commenced operations of the Cornerstone Pipeline
on schedule and under budget. The pipeline has been designed to transport
condensate and natural gasoline from the Marcellus and Utica regions to MPC's
Canton, Ohio, refinery. The partnership is now in the process of expanding the
capacity of existing pipelines, as well as constructing new pipelines as part of
a larger build-out of Utica Shale infrastructure. "With this mix of new and
existing pipelines, we are seizing a unique opportunity to connect natural gas
liquids to downstream markets in the Midwest and Canada through our extensive
distribution network," Heminger said.

Speedway continues to be a top performer in the convenience store industry. In
the third quarter, Speedway delivered strong light product sales volume and
record merchandise margin dollars. The higher merchandise margin is consistent
with its strategy to realize marketing enhancement opportunities.

As MPC's most ratable distribution channel, Speedway supports MPC's overall
supply reliability and allows MPC to optimize the integration value created by
synergies with refining, pipeline and terminal operations. In addition, Speedway
benefits from its integration in MPC's broader refining and logistics system in
times of supply disruptions, such as the Colonial Pipeline outage in September.

The refining and marketing segment results are down from a year ago on lower
crack spreads and compressed product price realizations. "Despite a challenging
quarter, we remain optimistic as we move forward into 2017, given the signs of
market rebalancing and sustained strong demand," Heminger said. "The combination
of our niche inland refineries and large Gulf Coast refineries with optimization
potential and export access positions us well for the future."

During the third quarter, MPC returned $241 million to shareholders, which
included a 12.5 percent increase in the company's quarterly dividend, to $0.36
per share. The dividend has increased at a 28 percent compound annual growth
rate since MPC's spinoff in 2011, demonstrating its ongoing strategy to return
capital to shareholders.

"The third quarter marked our fifth year as a stand-alone company. Since the
spinoff, we have demonstrated a track record of creating value for and returning
capital to our shareholders," Heminger said. "The strength of our integrated
platform and our operational performance has enabled us to return over $10
billion to shareholders since 2011 through share repurchases and dividends while
continuing to reinvest for future growth."

Segment Results

Total income from operations was $435 million in the third quarter of 2016,
compared with $1.55 billion in the third quarter of 2015.

(a)       In 2016, segment reporting was revised in connection with the
contribution of MPC's inland marine business to MPLX. The results of the inland
marine business are now presented in the Midstream segment. Previously, these
results were reported in the Refining & Marketing segment. Comparable prior
period information has been recast to reflect this revised segment presentation.

Refining & Marketing
Refining & Marketing segment income from operations was $306 million in the
third quarter of 2016, compared with $1.43 billion in the same quarter of 2015.
The decrease in the quarter-over-quarter results was due to a $6.52 per barrel
decrease in gross margin, primarily resulting from lower crack spreads in both
Gulf Coast and Chicago markets and lower product price realizations compared to
the spot market product prices used in the Light Louisiana Sweet (LLS) crack
spread calculation. The Chicago and Gulf Coast Light Louisiana Sweet 6-3-2-1
blended crack spread decreased from $12.18 per barrel in the third quarter of
2015 to $8.08 per barrel in the third quarter of 2016.

Speedway
Speedway segment income from operations was $209 million in the third quarter of
2016, compared with $243 million in the third quarter of 2015. The decrease in
segment income was primarily the result of a lower light product margin and
increased depreciation expense, partially offset by increases in merchandise
margin and light product sales volume. Speedway's light product margin decreased
from 21.46 cents per gallon in the third quarter of 2015 to 17.73 cents per
gallon in the third quarter of 2016, while merchandise gross margin as a percent
of merchandise sales increased to 28.9% in the third quarter of 2016 compared
with 27.7% in the third quarter of 2015. The increase in depreciation is
primarily related to the recent investments made in the business, including
capital spending related to the Hess Retail acquisition in late 2014.

Midstream
Midstream segment income from operations, which includes MPLX as well as other
related operations, was $258 million in the third quarter of 2016, compared with
$93 million for the third quarter of 2015. The increase was primarily due to the
inclusion of MarkWest's operating results following the merger with MPLX on Dec.
4, 2015, as well as the earnings from new and existing pipelines and marine
equity investments.

Items Not Allocated to Segments
Corporate and other unallocated expenses of $67 million in the third quarter of
2016 were $8 million lower than the third quarter of 2015 largely due to a
reduction in corporate expenses.
Impairments not allocated to segments totaled $267 million in the third quarter
of 2016. This non-cash charge related to the impairment of our equity investment
in the Sandpiper Pipeline project as a result of the withdrawal of regulatory
applications for the project. The third quarter of 2015 included a $144 million
impairment charge related to the cancellation of the ROUX (residual oil upgrade
expansion) project at our Garyville refinery.

Strong Financial Position and Liquidity

On Sept. 30, 2016, the company had $709 million of cash and cash equivalents.
The company has $2.5 billion available under a revolving credit agreement, $1
billion available under a 364-day bank revolving credit facility and
approximately $740 million available under its $750 million trade receivables
securitization facility, for total liquidity of $4.9 billion.

During the quarter, MPC chose to prepay $500 million under its term loan
agreement with available cash on hand.

The company's liquidity should provide it with sufficient flexibility to meet
its day-to-day operational needs and continue its balanced approach to investing
in the business and returning capital to shareholders. The company remains
committed to maintaining an investment-grade credit profile.

Conference Call

At 9 a.m. EDT today, MPC will hold a webcast and conference call to discuss the
reported results and provide an update on company operations. Interested parties

a. Segment EBITDA represents segment earnings before interest and financing
costs, interest income, income taxes and depreciation and amortization
expense. Segment EBITDA is used by some investors and analysts to analyze
and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. Segment EBITDA
should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to
MPC, income before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities or any
other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Segment
EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other
entities.
b. Includes a non-cash LCM inventory valuation benefit of $370 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2016. The benefit increased Refining &
Marketing and Speedway segment EBITDA by $345 million and $25 million,
