North American Shale Play Production Growth has Reversed Crude Flows, Which is Now Driving Additional Shale Crude to St. James, LA As rapid growth in U.S. shale production has allowed refiners to replace much of crude imports with domestic crude, imports from outside the U.S. through St. James have decreased dramatically At the same time, North American shale production continues to grow and St. James continues to play a central role in crude distribution and storage for the region and the world, illustrated by a number of projects to address that changing supply and demand: LOOP exports Bayou Bridge Capline reversal ACE Seahorse Source: RBN CONFIDENTIAL 22
Our St. James Terminal has the Capacity, Connectivity and Potential Expandability to Take Maximum Advantage of Changing Regional Crude Flows as They Develop We have executed contracts for 20MBPD and expect over 30MBPD per month for unit train off-loading driven by favorable price differentials of WTI, WCS and Bakken Dislocations will likely continue with the delay of Enbridge’s Line 3 replacement We are also working to facilitate exports of barrels delivered via our existing and planned pipeline connections as long-haul pipelines debottleneck shale plays and new pipes debottleneck the broader system In-bound Capacity Storage Capacity Out-bound Capacity Current total: 4.5MMBPD Current total: Current total: 3.6MMBPD • Bayou Bridge 24” Pipeline- 456MBPD 9.9MMbbls • LOCAP 30”Pipeline (3Q19 connection to • Ship Shoal 20” Pipeline- 360MBPD Maurepas Pipeline)- 380MBPD • Zydeco 18” Pipeline- 360MBPD • XOM Baton Rouge 24” Pipeline- 350MBPD • Bonefish 16” Pipeline- 108MBPD • XOM 16” North Line Pipeline - 150MBPD • LOCAP 48” Pipeline- 2.0MMBPD • Capline 40” Pipeline (Reversal planned: 3Q • 20-Car Manifest Rail- 10MBPD 2020)- 1.2MMBPD • 120-Car Unit Train–N.

Appendix Continued Improvement: Our 2019 Plan
Producers in the Basin Remain Bullish on Permian Growth, Strength & Resiliency “When we first described the cadence over the next “The 2019 drilling programs should exhibit a significant two years, we described 2020 as production numbers productivity increase versus 2018 program. Wider spacing that translated into double-digit production growth is expected to drive significant productivity improvements with oil production outpacing the overall growth versus offset tighter space packages through our acreage.” where we saw free cash flow at $50 oil and where we saw free cash flow approaching $1 billion at $60 oil. And that's still what we see today under that same “We went through a period, where we did a lot of testing base budget scenario.” and slowed down and make sure we get spacing, right, understood gas-oil ratios, where we could move forward and you're seeing the results of those programs.” “It's our acreage position that allows us to prioritize returns and capital efficiency rather than artificially increasing our inventory through tight well spacing, “We expected to generate a productivity uplift with our which, as we know, increases your exposure to the 2019 action plan and we are seeing that borne out in the parent-child impacts. It's this development strategy, early data.” combined with advances in our completions “We are guiding to oil production of 87,000 to 90,000 methodology over time, is what has allowed us to barrels per day representing 2% sequential growth at the improve well productivity year-over-year.” midpoint.

Our New Connections in Taft, Texas Will Establish Our Footprint in This Emerging South Texas Crude Oil Hub The long-haul pipeline projects 2MMbpd Taft from the Permian to South from the Texas were developed to Permian ~15 miles to Ingleside maximize shippers’ destination Harbor optionality, and Taft, Texas ~6+ miles to Island offers both geographic Inner Harbor Ingleside flexibility and less expensive real estate Corpus Christi Taft’s location offers a jumping off point for connections on either side of the Corpus Christi Ship Channel (Ingleside or the Inner Harbor) As the point of convergence for all three of the Permian-to-Corpus Christi long-haul pipelines and with developing access to multiple marine and refinery outlets, Taft is poised to become the major crude oil market hub in South Texas Our connection to Cactus II in Taft not only enables our services for Trafigura; it also positions NuStar to build on our early entry into this developing hub We plan to connect to Gray Oak in 4Q 2019 and continue to explore opportunities with EPIC We believe there will be ample volumes to support an expansion of our initial Taft footprint 33
West Coast Bio-Fuel Strategy Projects (Scheduled for Completion in 2019-2021) • Together, these projects comprise a renewable diesel/biodiesel distribution system that allows us to capture market share, build important customer relationships with key global producers and achieve higher storage rates than are attainable for non-LCFS products 2019 2020 2021 Convert 36,000 barrels of previously idled fuel oil storage to biodiesel service 3Q Portland Convert 57,000 barrels of previously idled fuel oil storage to renewable diesel 4Q Construct new truck-loading bay to accommodate additional renewable diesel 1Q Selby loading requirements Convert 30,000 shell barrels to biodiesel service 2Q Convert 63,000 shell barrels to renewable diesel service and increase renewable diesel-capable rail spots from five to 15 3Q Stockton Convert 151,000 shell barrels to renewable diesel service 3Q Provide pipeline connections to ethanol rail loading facility to receive 108-car unit 2Q trains Convert 160,000 shell barrels from fuel oil to renewable diesel storage and Wilmington reconfigure dock for enhanced marine capability 4Q 34
