Calumet said Monday that the transaction includes the refinery and related crude oil pipeline, crude oil terminal, other operating and logistics assets and inventories of NuStar Refining LLC and NuStar Logistics LP.
NuStar Refining and NuStar Logistics are subsidiaries of NuStar Energy LP.
Calumet, which is based in Indianapolis, said that it plans to finance the transaction with available cash and borrowings under its senior secured revolving credit facility.
The deal is expected to close in January.
