Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On November 17, 2015, Shell Midstream Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”) completed its previously announced acquisition of a 100% interest in Pecten Midstream LLC (“Pecten”) for total consideration of $390 million, which consisted of (i) a cash distribution of $383,890,452.30 million to Shell Pipeline Company LP (“SPLC”) and (ii) the issuance of 187,775 general partner units representing general partner interests in the Partnership (“General Partner Units”) to the General Partner (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition closed pursuant to a Contribution Agreement dated November 11, 2015 among SPLC, the Partnership and Shell Midstream Operating LLC. The Partnership funded the cash portion of the consideration for the Acquisition with $297.1 million from the net proceeds of the Partnership’s registered public offering of 9,200,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (the “Offering”), $49.4 million of cash on hand and $37.4 million in borrowings under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility. The remaining $6.1 million in consideration consisted of 187,775 General Partner Units.

On October 1, 2015, SPLC contributed to Pecten a crude oil pipeline system located in the Gulf of Mexico (Auger), a crude oil storage terminal located southwest of Chicago (Lockport) and related property, plant and equipment (collectively, the “Shell Auger & Lockport Operations”).

Upon the closing of the Acquisition and the Offering on November 17, 2015, SPLC’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Shell Midstream LP Holdings LLC, owned 21,475,068 common units and 67,475,068 subordinated units in the Partnership, representing an aggregate 57.41% limited partner interest.
