Business Segment Information
12. Business Segment Information
Our operations consist of three operating segments:
Pipeline Transportation – interstate, intrastate and offshore crude oil, and to a lesser extent, CO2;
Refinery Services – processing high sulfur (or “sour”) gas streams as part of refining operations to remove the sulfur and selling the related by-product, NaHS and;
Supply and Logistics – terminaling, blending, storing, marketing, and transporting crude oil and petroleum products (primarily fuel oil, asphalt, and other heavy refined products) and, on a smaller scale, CO2.
Substantially all of our revenues are derived from, and substantially all of our assets are located in, the United States.
We define Segment Margin as revenues less product costs, operating expenses (excluding non-cash charges, such as depreciation and amortization), and segment general and administrative expenses, plus our equity in distributable cash generated by our equity investees. In addition, our Segment Margin definition excludes the non-cash effects of our legacy stock appreciation rights plan and includes the non-income portion of payments received under direct financing leases.
Our chief operating decision maker (our Chief Executive Officer) evaluates segment performance based on a variety of measures including Segment Margin, segment volumes, where relevant, and capital investment.

(c) Capital expenditures include maintenance and growth capital expenditures, such as fixed asset additions (including enhancements to existing facilities and construction of internal growth projects) as well as acquisitions of businesses and interests in equity investees. In addition to construction of internal growth projects, capital spending in our pipeline transportation segment included $94.3 million and $63.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 representing capital contributions to our SEKCO equity investee to fund our share of the construction costs for its pipeline. During 2013, capital spending in our supply and logistics segment also included $230.9 million for the acquisition of our offshore marine transportation assets. During 2012, capital spending in our pipeline transportation segment also included $205.6 million for the acquisition of interests in several Gulf of Mexico pipelines.
(d) Intersegment sales were conducted under terms that we believe were no more or less favorable than then-existing market conditions.
