The Logistics & Storage (L&S) organization is the link between the Refining and Marketing components of Marathon. L&S transports crude oil and refined products to and from the refineries and onto storage terminals for distribution to retail marketing facilities, via pipelines and marine transportation operations. Logistics & Storage is comprised of four primary components:
- L&SE – provides engineering design and project management services to Terminals, MPL, and Marine.
- Terminals – play a prominent role in blending, distributing, and delivering quality products in a safe, reliable, and competitive manner.
- MPL – operates pipeline systems that move crude oil from production fields, other pipeline companies, and offshore platforms to MPC refineries, and moves refined products from refineries to product terminals.
- Marine – maintains and operates a large private inland petroleum products barge fleet, used to ship crude oil, intermediates, and refined products.
The purpose of the Logistics and Storage intern/co‑op program is to identify and develop future technical and leadership talent for the benefit of MPC, the engineering intern/co‑op, and the engineering profession. The program may consist of any number of work sessions. Multiple sessions give interns/co‑ops the ability to rotate between the different L&S components in order to gain exposure to the various business segments and to offer a variety of assignments with increasing responsibility.
