FINDLAY, Ohio, Feb. 1, 2017 - Marathon Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: MPC) today
reported 2016 fourth-quarter earnings of $227 million, or $0.43 per diluted
share, compared with $187 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, in the fourth
quarter of 2015.

Earnings were $1.17 billion, or $2.21 per diluted share, for the full-year
2016, compared with $2.85 billion, or $5.26 per diluted share, for the full-year
2015.

"Our fourth-quarter and full-year 2016 results reflect solid operational and
financial performance across the business despite a challenging commodity price
and margin environment," said Gary R. Heminger, chairman, president and chief
executive officer. "One year following the strategic combination of MPLX and
MarkWest, we are pleased with MPLX's 2016 results and are encouraged by the
robust portfolio of growth opportunities, which will continue to contribute to
long-term value for our investors."

Speedway continued its exceptional performance in the quarter and set multiple
records for the full-year 2016 while maintaining tight control on expenses.
Speedway surpassed segment all-time highs in income from operations, light
product gallons sold, merchandise sales, and merchandise gross margin on a
percentage and absolute dollar basis. "Speedway continues to exceed our
expectations by driving marketing-enhancement opportunities and continuing to
realize acquisition synergies across the network," Heminger said. "Speedway's




performance highlights the strong value our team is creating for investors."

MPC announced its 2017 capital investment plan, which remains focused on
strengthening the sustained earnings power of its business, through growth and
margin-enhancing investments across the enterprise. MPC's investment plan,
excluding MPLX LP (NYSE: MPLX), totals approximately $1.7 billion. The plan
includes nearly $1.2 billion for MPC's refining and marketing segment, with
approximately $325 million for margin-enhancing projects and approximately $840
million for sustaining capital, related to regulatory spending including Tier 3
gasoline. It also includes approximately $380 million for MPC's Speedway
segment, primarily to build new stores and to remodel and rebuild existing
retail locations in its core markets; approximately $90 million for MPC's
midstream segment, excluding MPLX; and approximately $100 million to support
corporate activities.

MPC also announced it has reduced total planned investments in the South Texas
Asset Repositioning (STAR) project to $1.5 billion from $2 billion. The high-
return staged investments planned for the STAR project through 2021 are designed
to enhance profitability and reliability while integrating the Galveston Bay and
Texas City refineries, creating the second-largest refining complex in the
United States. The $500 million reduction in the total planned investments
reflects a substantial preservation of the project's scope and projected rate of
return. MPC anticipates spending approximately $85 million on the STAR project
this year.

MPLX announced its 2017 capital investment plan, which includes $1.4 billion to
$1.7 billion of organic growth capital and approximately $100 million of
maintenance capital. Approximately $1 billion to
$1.3 billion of these growth investments are for the development of natural gas
and gas liquids infrastructure to support MPLX's producer customers, primarily
in the prolific Marcellus Shale. The remaining $400 million of growth capital is
planned for the development of various crude oil and refined petroleum products
infrastructure projects, including a build-out of Utica Shale infrastructure in
connection with the recently completed Cornerstone Pipeline, a butane cavern in
Robinson, Illinois, and a tank farm expansion in Texas City, Texas.

Additionally on Jan. 3, MPC provided an update on its strategic actions to
enhance shareholder value. MPC is executing plans to significantly accelerate
the dropdown to MPLX of assets with approximately $1.4 billion of annual
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) now
planned for 2017, including $250 million by the end of the first quarter.

In conjunction with the completion of the dropdowns, MPC expects to exchange its
economic interests in the general partner, including incentive distribution
rights, for newly issued MPLX common (LP) units. All transactions are subject to
requisite approvals, market and other conditions, including tax and other
regulatory clearances. Additionally, a special committee of the Board has been
formed and it has selected an independent financial advisor to assist in the
full and thorough review of Speedway to ensure optimum value is delivered to
shareholders over the long term. We expect to provide an update on the review by
mid-2017.

Cash proceeds from the dropdowns and ongoing LP distributions are expected to
fund the substantial ongoing return of capital to MPC shareholders in a manner
consistent with maintaining an investment-grade credit profile.

"Moving into 2017, we are executing our strategic plan to unlock the tremendous
value in our best-in-class midstream platform for the benefit of all investors,"
Heminger said. "We are well-positioned across the business to take advantage of
strengthening commodity prices, recovering refinery spreads and robust demand
for our products."

$2.38 billion for full-year 2016, compared with $338 million in the fourth
quarter of 2015 and $4.69 billion for full-year 2015. The results of MarkWest

((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.
((b)         )Fourth-quarter and full-year 2015 income from operations includes
a non-cash charge of $370 million to value inventory at lower of cost or market
(LCM). The charge reduced our Refining & Marketing and Speedway segment results
by $345 million and $25 million, respectively. Based on increases in refined
product prices in 2016, this LCM inventory valuation reserve was reversed
resulting in a non-cash benefit to 2016 segment results.


Refining & Marketing
Refining & Marketing segment income from operations was $219 million in the
fourth quarter of 2016 and $1.54 billion for full-year 2016, compared with $179
million and $4.09 billion in the fourth quarter of 2015 and full-year 2015,
respectively.
Excluding the lower of cost or market (LCM) charge in the fourth quarter of
2015, the decrease in quarter-over-quarter segment results was primarily due to
the effect of lower product price realizations compared with the spot market
product prices used in the Light Louisiana Sweet (LLS) crack spread and
increased direct operating costs primarily related to refinery turnarounds.
These negative impacts were partially offset by higher blended crack spreads.
The U.S. Gulf Coast (USGC) and Chicago LLS blended 6-3-2-1 crack spread
increased from $6.65 per barrel in the fourth quarter of 2015 to $7.39 per
barrel in the fourth quarter of 2016, as an increase in the USGC crack spread
more than offset a decrease in the Chicago crack spread.
Excluding the effects of LCM adjustments, the decrease in Refining & Marketing
segment income from operations for full-year 2016 compared to full-year 2015
primarily resulted from lower crack spreads in both the Gulf Coast and Chicago
markets and higher direct operating costs due to refinery turnarounds.  The
blended 6-3-2-1 crack spread for the full year decreased from $9.70 per barrel
in 2015 to $6.96 per barrel in 2016.

Speedway
Speedway segment income from operations was $165 million in the fourth quarter
of 2016 and $734 million for full-year 2016, compared with $135 million in the
fourth quarter of 2015 and $673 million for full-year 2015.
Excluding the LCM charge in 2015, the increase in segment income from operations
for the fourth quarter was primarily due to lower operating costs and an
increase in merchandise margin, substantially offset by lower light product
margin. Speedway's light product margin decreased from 18.23 cents per gallon in
the fourth quarter of 2015 to 16.17 cents per gallon in the fourth quarter of
2016.
Excluding LCM adjustments, the increase in segment results for the full-year
2016 was primarily due to higher merchandise margin and gains from asset sales,
partially offset by lower light product margin which decreased from 18.23 cents
per gallon in 2015 to 16.56 cents per gallon in 2016.

Midstream
Midstream segment income from operations, which includes 100 percent of MPLX's
operations as well as other related operations, was $245 million in the fourth
quarter of 2016 and $871 million for full-year 2016, compared with $94 million
and $380 million for the fourth quarter and full-year 2015, respectively. The
increase in Midstream segment income from operations for the fourth quarter and
full-year of 2016 compared with 2015 was primarily due to the inclusion of
MarkWest's results from the Dec. 4, 2015, merger date as well as the earnings
from new pipeline and marine equity investments.


Items Not Allocated to Segments
Corporate and other unallocated expenses of $76 million in the fourth quarter of
2016 and $277 million for full-year 2016 compared with $70 million and $299
million for the full-year 2015. The decrease for the full year was largely due
to increased allocations of corporate costs to the segments.
Full-year 2016 impairments not allocated to segments of $486 million included
non-cash charges of $356 million related to equity method investments and $130
million related to goodwill. Full-year 2015 impairments not allocated to
segments of $144 million related to a cancelled capital project.

Strong Financial Position and Liquidity

On Dec. 31, 2016, the company had $887 million in 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 $684 million
available under its $750 million trade receivables securitization facility, for
total liquidity of $5.1 billion.
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.

((a)        )Fourth-quarter and full-year 2015 income from operations includes a
non-cash LCM charge of $370 million to value inventory at lower of cost or
market (LCM). The charge reduced our Refining & Marketing and Speedway segment
results by $345 million and $25 million, respectively. The company reversed this
LCM inventory valuation reserve due to increased refined product prices during
the second quarter of 2016 resulting in a $370 non-cash benefit to income from
operations for the full year 2016, which increased Refining & Marketing and
Speedway segment results by $345 million and $25 million, respectively.
((b)        )In 2016, segment reporting was revised in connection with the
contribution of MPC's inland marine business to MPLX. The results of the inland

((c)        )Includes the results of MarkWest from the Dec. 4, 2015, merger
date.
((d)        )Full-year 2016 impairments included non-cash charges of $267
million related to our equity method investment in the Sandpiper Pipeline
project resulting from the indefinite deferral of this project, $130 million
related to the goodwill recognized in connection with the MarkWest merger and
$89 million related to an MPLX equity method investment. Full-year 2015 relates
to the cancellation of the ROUX project.
((e)        )The three months and year ended Dec. 31, 2015, includes $13.85
billion for the MarkWest merger.

((a)        )Segment EBITDA represents segment earnings before interest and
financing costs, interest income, income taxes, 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)        )Fourth-quarter and full-year 2015 income from operations includes a
non-cash charge of $370 million to value inventory at lower of cost or market
(LCM). The charge reduced our Refining & Marketing and Speedway segment results
by $345 million and $25 million, respectively. The company reversed this LCM
inventory valuation reserve due to increased refined product prices during the
second quarter of 2016 resulting in a $370 non-cash benefit to income from
operations for the full year 2016, which increased Refining & Marketing and
Speedway segment results by $345 million and $25 million, respectively.
((c)        )Includes the results of MarkWest from the December 4, 2015 merger
date.
((d)        )Includes impairment charges of $486 million and $144 million for
the full-years 2016 and 2015, respectively.
