In December 2008, Sunoco announced its intention to sell the Tulsa refinery or convert it to a terminal by the end of 2009 because it did not expect to achieve an acceptable return on investment on a capital project to comply with the new off-road diesel fuel requirements at this facility.

Corporate Expenses Corporate administrative expenses were $60 million after tax in the first nine months of 2010 versus $32 million after tax in the first nine months of 2009.

The $18 million increase was primarily due to higher interest expense ($9 million) and lower capitalized interest ($14 million). The increased interest expense was largely driven by new borrowings of Sunoco Logistics associated with their growth capital.
