Hymel has been appointed as Chief Financial Officer of the Partnership’s general partner.

Ms. Argo has served as Vice President, NGL Fractionation, Storage and Unregulated Pipelines for Enterprise Products Partners L.P. since January 2014, managing a group of assets which generate over a billion dollars per year in gross operating margin. From 2005 until January 2014, Ms. Argo held positions in the NGL and Natural Gas Processing businesses for Enterprise, where her responsibilities included the commercial and financial management of four joint venture companies. Ms. Argo has 18 years of experience in the energy industry. Prior to joining Enterprise, Ms. Argo worked for San Diego Gas and Electric Company in San Diego, California from 2001-2004, and PG&E Gas Transmission, a subsidiary of PG&E Corporation, in Houston, Texas, from 1997-2000.

Ms. Hymel previously served as Controller and principal accounting officer of the Partnership’s general partner since March 2011. She has also served as Controller of Oiltanking Holding Americas, Inc. (“OTA”) since January 2001. Mrs. Hymel joined OTA in April of 1995 as the Controller for Oiltanking Houston L.P. Since that time, she has served as Corporate Secretary and Treasurer for various OTA and Partnership entities.

During its Inaugural Analyst Day presentation on June 24, 2014, the Partnership indicated that it was evaluating the purchase of a marine and storage terminal in Texas City, Texas owned by an affiliate of OTA, which would potentially be completed in late 2014 or early 2015. In a press release on October 1, 2014, OTA announced that it would retain its ownership and operation of its terminal in Texas City, Texas; therefore, the Partnership is no longer evaluating the purchase of this asset.
