Top 5 Energy Stocks To Invest In 2019: Phillips 66 Partners LP(PSXP)
Advisors' Opinion:- [By John Bromels]
Phillips 66 was the midstream (transportation and storage) and downstream (refining and marketing) arms of oil and gas giant ConocoPhillips, which spun the company off in 2012. The company's midstream operations include income from its master limited partnerships Phillips 66 Partners (NYSE:PSXP) and DCP Midstream (NYSE:DCP), which it co-owns with Enbridge.

This strategy of acquiring assets from a large parent company to grow an MLP's payout has worked well over the years. Refining giant Phillips 66 (NYSE:PSX) has been one of the most successful with this strategy since creating Phillips 66 Partners (NYSE:PSXP) in 2013. At that time, Phillips 66 launched an ambitious plan to grow its MLP's distribution at a 30% compound annual rate through 2018 via a steady stream of dropdown transactions. Phillips 66 Partners is right on target, having increased the payout at a 31% compound annual growth rate since the IPO while maintaining solid financial metrics, including covering the payout with cash flow by a very comfortable 1.33 times last quarter and maintaining a conservative debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 3.2 in 2017. This strategy has also richly rewarded investors in Phillips 66 Partners, which has generated a total return of 89% since its IPO despite a recent sell-off, easily ahead of the S&P 500's nearly 73% total return over that time frame.

Investing in midstream master limited partnerships is generally all about the distributions, which the tax-efficient corporate structure is designed to provide to unitholders. However, that doesn't always mean a high distribution yield is the goal, which is the key to determining if Holly Energy Partners, LP (NYSE:HEP) or Phillips 66 Partners LP (NYSE:PSXP) is the better buy. Here's what you need to know to make an informed decision between these stocks.

The Sweeny Hub expansion is a "key part of our midstream growth strategy," said Garland, as it "further optimizes our integrated NGL value chain." That chain starts with a link to fast-growing production basins to the West via pipelines co-owned by DCP Midstream and the company's other MLP, Phillips 66 Partners (NYSE:PSXP). Last month, those companies announced that they would connect their Southern Hills NGL pipeline to the DJ Basin, which would bring more NGL volumes toward Phillips 66's Sweeny Hub. Meanwhile, the companies are also expanding their Sand Hills NGL Pipeline to move volumes from the Permian Basin toward Sweeny.

The region's capacity constraints will likely hold back the Permian's growth engine until the end of next year, when new pipelines enter service. One of those projects is the Grey Oak Pipeline system, which is an 800,000-BPD pipeline under development by Phillips 66 Partners (NYSE:PSXP) and Andeavor (NYSE:ANDX). The companies currently expect the $2 billion oil pipeline to start up by the end of 2019.

Sometimes, though, you can have too much of a good thing. Dividend stocks with top dividend yields come with special risks, and although that doesn't guarantee that you'll get burned, the chances of a setback are greater. Below, I'll look at BP Prudhoe Bay Royalty Trust (NYSE:BPT), CenturyLink (NYSE:CTL), and Annaly Capital Management (NYSE:NLY) to explain why their yields are so high and what dangers could lurk beneath the surface.
