TEPPCO PARTNERS, L.P. REPORTS RESULTS
FOR THIRD QUARTER 2008

HOUSTON – TEPPCO Partners, L.P. (NYSE:TPP) today reported third quarter net income for 2008 of $47.0 million, or $0.40 per unit, compared with net income of     $47.6 million, or $0.44 per unit, for the third quarter of 2007.  Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) increased 13 percent to $129.1 million for the third quarter of 2008, compared with $114.4 million for the third quarter of 2007.  Net income and EBITDA for the third quarter of 2008 were impacted by approximately $3.7 million in estimated lost business revenue from Hurricanes Gustav and Ike.

“Overall, we were pleased with TEPPCO’s performance in the third quarter, especially in light of the recent economic downturn coupled with the impacts of Hurricanes Gustav and Ike,” said Jerry E. Thompson, president and chief executive officer of the general partner of TEPPCO.  “Physical damage from Hurricane Ike, which made landfall near Galveston, Texas, was limited and our employees did an excellent job of responding quickly to resume operations for our pipeline systems.  Our results were driven by a 28 percent increase in EBITDA at our Upstream segment on increased volumes as well as another strong performance by the Marine Services segment, which continues to perform in-line with our expectations.  TEPPCO’s Midstream segment also reported a solid quarter on a 21 percent increase in volumes at Jonah Gas Gathering.  These gains were partially offset by our Downstream segment, which was impacted by the hurricanes and lower demand for refined products,” Thompson added.

“In the third quarter, we were proactive in strengthening TEPPCO’s financial flexibility.  In July, we increased the borrowing capacity under TEPPCO’s credit facility, which matures in 2012, by $250 million, bringing the total commitments under the facility to $950 million.  In September, we were successful in completing one of only four MLP equity offerings brought to market during the third quarter, raising net proceeds of $264 million.  These actions resulted in TEPPCO having approximately $600 million in liquidity at the end of the quarter, providing a solid foundation to fund our capital investment program,” stated Thompson.

“In light of the continuing disruption in the capital markets and the higher costs for incremental capital, we are also reviewing our 2009 capital program to ensure we are focused only on those projects that provide the partnership with the highest returns, adjusted for business risk,” Thompson added.

EBITDA is a non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measure that is defined and reconciled to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure later in this news release.

OPERATING RESULTS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT

Upstream segment
EBITDA for the Upstream segment, which includes gathering, pipeline transportation, marketing and storage of crude oil and distribution of lubrication oils and specialty chemicals, increased $8.0 million, or 28 percent, to $36.8 million for the third quarter of 2008 from $28.8 million for the third quarter of 2007.  The improvement resulted from increased transportation volumes and rates, increased volumes marketed, increased terminaling volumes at Midland, Texas, and Cushing, Oklahoma, and revenues associated with the acquisition of an additional lubricants distributor business during the third quarter of 2008.  These increases were partially offset by increased operating and

maintenance expenses, increased general and administrative expenses, and expense items related to initial project development costs for the Texas offshore port project that we announced in the third quarter.

TEPPCO’s share of EBITDA from its equity investment in Seaway Crude Pipeline was $4.7 million for the third quarter of 2008, an increase of 57 percent compared with $3.0 million of EBITDA for the third quarter of 2007.  The improvement was primarily due to increased long-haul transportation volumes, which averaged 193,000 barrels per day (bpd) in the third quarter of 2008, compared with 103,000 bpd in the same quarter of 2007.  The 2007 third quarter was negatively impacted by operational downtime of Midwest area refineries.  Equity earnings for Seaway totaled $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2008, compared to $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2007.

Downstream segment
The Downstream segment includes the pipeline transportation, marketing and storage of refined products, liquefied petroleum gases (LPGs) and petrochemicals.

Downstream EBITDA was $31.0 million for the third quarter of 2008, compared with $39.8 million for the third quarter of 2007.  The decrease was primarily attributable to a $5.9 million decrease in refined products transportation revenues caused principally by lower consumer demand in 2008, lower refined products production in the Gulf Coast region following Hurricane Ike in September 2008, and higher than usual transportation demand from the Gulf Coast in the 2007 third quarter due to Midwest refinery downtime in 2007.  LPG transportation revenues declined $0.5 million due to lower isobutane demand by Midwest area refiners during the quarter.  Operating revenues during the third quarter of 2008 included $11.6 million of gains from the sale of product inventory, which was partially offset by non-cash expense of $7.7 million to reduce the value of remaining product inventory to market values at September 30, 2008.  Periodic inventory sales and purchases occur to balance product grades within the pipeline

system as part of routine pipeline operations.  Other operating expenses increased as a result of increased pipeline and tank maintenance costs. EBITDA for this segment in the third quarter of 2008 was impacted by approximately $3.0 million in estimated lost revenue from the hurricanes, due primarily to pipeline downtime and limited product availability for shippers as noted above.

Total refined products volumes delivered were 447,000 bpd in the 2008 third quarter, compared to 532,000 bpd in the 2007 period.  Total LPGs volumes delivered were 73,000 bpd in the 2008 third quarter, compared to 77,000 bpd in the 2007 period.

Thompson noted, “The supply disruption from the hurricanes, the impact of the Midwest refinery downtime in 2007 and the demand decrease due to weaker economic conditions in 2008, each contributed to the overall 16 percent reduction in refined products deliveries during the quarter.  However, a significant portion of the decrease attributable to lower demand from the weaker economy was offset by the 5 percent increase in the average tariff over the prior year.”

TEPPCO’s share of EBITDA from equity investments was $1.3 million for the third quarter of 2008, compared with $1.4 million for the third quarter of 2007.  Equity investments in the Downstream segment include its 50 percent ownership in Centennial Pipeline, and also reflects a $0.3 million loss during the 2007 third quarter for post-closing adjustments for the sale of its ownership interest in Mont Belvieu Storage Partners, which occurred in the first quarter of 2007.  The EBITDA contribution of Centennial was lower in the 2008 period due to lower transportation volumes partially offset by lower operating expenses.  Volumes on Centennial averaged approximately 105,700 bpd in the third quarter of 2008, compared to 180,800 bpd in the third quarter of 2007.  The volume reduction resulted primarily from lower Midwest demand and the impact of the Gulf Coast supply disruptions discussed above.  Equity losses from these investments totaled $2.3 million in the third quarter of 2008, compared with losses of

 
 
 
 TEPPCO 3Q 2008 Earnings 
Page 5 

$3.1 million in the 2007 period.  The loss on equity investments was partially offset by lower amortization expense in the 2008 third quarter.

Midstream segment
The Midstream segment includes gathering of natural gas, fractionation of natural gas liquids (NGLs), pipeline transportation of NGLs and ownership interest in Jonah Gas Gathering Company (Jonah).

EBITDA for the third quarter of 2008 increased to $46.7 million, from $45.8 million for the third quarter of 2007.  The increase was due primarily to increased earnings from TEPPCO’s investment in Jonah, and increased NGL transportation rates, partially offset by lower natural gas gathering volumes on the Val Verde system, increased power expenses on the Chaparral NGL system and impact of the hurricanes.  Net income and EBITDA for the third quarter of 2008 were impacted by approximately $0.5 million in estimated lost business revenue from the hurricanes.

TEPPCO’s share of EBITDA from its equity investment in Jonah, was $30.8 million for the third quarter of 2008, compared to $28.1 million for the third quarter of 2007.  The increase was primarily attributable to the completion of the Phase V expansion, resulting in higher volumes on the system, partially offset by measurement gains in 2007.  Total throughput on the Jonah-Pinedale system averaged 2.0 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in the third quarter of 2008, compared with 1.65 Bcf/d in the third quarter of 2007.  Equity earnings from Jonah totaled $21.8 million for the third quarter of 2008, compared with $21.1 million in the third quarter of 2007.

Marine Services segment
The Marine Services segment, which was added to the partnership effective February 1, 2008, includes marine transportation of refined products, crude oil, asphalt, condensate, heavy fuel oil and other heated oil products via tow boats and barges.  Revenues

 
 
 
 TEPPCO 3Q 2008 Earnings 
Page 6 

(including fuel and other reimbursable pass-through expenses) during the quarter totaled $46.0 million, partially offset by operating, general and administrative expenses of $31.4 million, resulting in an EBITDA contribution during the third quarter of 2008 of $14.6 million.  Operating fuel, substantially all of which is a pass through expense for the segment, totaled $10.2 million during the quarter.

CAPITALIZATION AND LIQUIDITY
Total debt principal outstanding at September 30, 2008 was approximately $2.3 billion.  This amount includes $300 million of junior subordinated notes for which the nationally recognized debt rating agencies ascribe equity credit to approximately 58 percent of the principal amount.  At September 30, 2008, borrowing liquidity under the revolving credit facility was approximately $600 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, TEPPCO spent $173.2 million on revenue-generating projects in addition to $94.9 million of investment for its share of capital expenditures related to the expansions on the Jonah-Pinedale system, and $41.9 million on capital spending to maintain existing assets.  The partnership expects to spend approximately $425 million to $450 million for the full-year 2008 on revenue-generating capital expenditures, including investments of its share of expansion of the Jonah-Pinedale system, plus approximately $53 million to maintain existing assets.  For 2009, the partnership expects to spend in the range of $350 million to $400 million related to revenue-generating committed capital projects.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The Financial Highlights table accompanying this earnings release and other disclosures herein include the following non-GAAP measures under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC):  EBITDA, EBITDA excluding gains from sales of assets and ownership interests and margin of the Upstream segment.  Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to GAAP

 
 
 
 TEPPCO 3Q 2008 Earnings 
Page 7 

measures such as net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.  Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other entities because other entities may not calculate such measures in the same manner as we do.

We define EBITDA as net income plus interest expense – net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and a pro-rata portion, based on our equity ownership, of the interest expense and depreciation and amortization of each of our joint ventures.  We have included EBITDA and related adjusted EBITDA measures in our disclosures because we believe they are used by our investors as supplemental financial measures in the evaluation of our business.  Further, we believe EBITDA and related adjusted EBITDA measures provide useful information regarding the performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical costs basis.  As a result, these measures provide investors with a helpful tool for comparing the operating performance of our assets with the performance of other companies that have different financing and capital structures.  EBITDA multiples are also used by our investors in assisting in the valuation of our limited partners’ equity.  Reconciliations of these measures to net income and equity earnings are provided in the Financial Highlights table and the Business Segment Data table.

Margin of our Upstream segment is calculated as revenues generated from the sale of crude oil and lubrication oil, and transportation of crude oil, less the costs of purchases of crude oil and lubrication oil, in each case prior to the elimination of intercompany sales, revenues and purchases between wholly owned subsidiaries.  We believe margin is a more meaningful measure of financial performance than sales and purchases of crude oil and lubrication oil due to the significant fluctuations in sales and purchases caused by variations in the level of marketing activity and prices for products marketed.  Additionally, we use margin internally to evaluate the financial performance of the

Page 8 
 
Upstream segment because it excludes expenses that are not directly related to the marketing and sales activities being evaluated. A reconciliation of margin to operating income is provided in the Operating Data table.
