Cypress Energy Partners LP – Midstream Services
OVERVIEW
We strive to be the premier midstream energy services company in markets we serve by building strong relationships with
our stakeholders including customers, partners, employees, regulators, and suppliers.
• History: Cypress Energy Partners was started in 2012 to provide a variety of midstream services to energy companies in
North America. We completed our IPO in January 2014 and exceeded our distribution per unit estimates in our first year.
• Currently We Operate in Two Business Segments in United States & Canada:
• Water & Environmental Services (W&ES): Provide midstream services to oil and natural gas producers to dispose
of their energy waste. Currently own & operate eleven commercial salt water disposal (SWD) facilities.
• Pipeline Inspection & Integrity Services (PI&IS): Provide midstream services to energy, public utility, and pipeline
/ MLP companies in the United States and Canada. These services are mandated by federal and state laws. Our
inspection subsidiary TIR has an impressive 11-year history of double digit growth in revenue and EBITDA.
• IRS PLR : We have an IRS private letter ruling (PLR) that covers additional diversified opportunities and expansion
potential into areas that historically have not previously been MLP-eligible.
• Highly Experienced Management: We have assembled a talented, experienced management team and Board of Directors
with 200+ years of energy experience and substantial success building value for investors.
• Aligned Interests: CELP insiders retain approximately 65% of the limited partner (LP) units and 100% of the general partner
(GP), aligning the interests of our executive team and Board of Directors with unitholders.
• Unitholder Distributions: We plan to grow our distributions per unit by 10% annually over the long term through a
combination of organic growth and disciplined acquisitions. We have completed three acquisitions since our IPO.
• Capital Flexibility: We have an attractive credit facility and will soon file our S-3 shelf registration statement.

CELP Growth Opportunities
• Diversification: Plan to diversify into other businesses covered in our PLR over time including:
Additional pipeline & inspection midstream-related activities required by federal and state laws
Other midstream services that are intrinsic activities required to support energy customers
Other traditional MLP activities including midstream, storage, rail & trans-loading facilities, etc.
Additional SWDs, pipelines, solids, recycling, oil reclamation, and expanded geography / basins
• W&ES: Plan to grow through focus on piped water. Four facilities currently receive piped volumes from eight
pipelines
• Piped water offers a stable volume source and currently represents over 25% of our volumes
• PI: Expand current TIR customer base of 60+ clients
• Increasing government regulations grow demand for outsourced inspection services
• 12% growth projected in pipeline market in 2015(1)
• IS: Expand Brown Integrity services to more states, including the 47 states TIR operates in. Brown is currently
operating in six states
• Increasing regulations also grow demand for integrity services
• NDE, pigging, smart pigging, aerial surveillance, etc.

Pipeline Inspection & Integrity Midstream Services
You can not deliver oil, natural gas, or other products to end users (refineries, gas plants, homes, factories, storage, etc.)
without pipelines that require inspection services. North American infrastructure is aging, requiring more oversight &
repairs.
Market Dynamics

(2) Source: Stifel Diversified Industrials Industries Update, February 2015
• Over 2.3 million miles of transmission and
distribution pipelines and millions of miles of
gathering systems(1)
• Recent accidents and regulations have increased
oversight for Local Distribution Companies
(LDC), Public Utility Companies (PUC),
gathering systems and utility pipelines
• Gathering systems are subject to scrutiny and
federal regulations and in some cases state
regulations
• ~12% growth projected in the pipeline market in
2015(2)
• Aging pipeline infrastructure will drive demand
for pipeline services
• Pipeline inspection and integrity services such as
pig tracking, mobile x-ray / ultrasonic testing, and
other inspection can identify anomalies before
they lead to bigger problems
• Pipelines require substantial recurring
maintenance during their lifetimes
• Substantial new pipeline infrastructure is required
to support our growth in supply and energy
independence

Water & Environmental Services – CELP Facilities
• Own 11 SWD facilities
• 9 North Dakota facilities in Williston
Basin
• 2 Texas facilities in Permian Basin
• Annual injection capacity of ~50 million barrels
• Serve over 50+ customers including:
SWD facility
SWD facility with piped water
Salt Water Disposal Facility
• Highly fragmented market ripe for consolidation
• 15-30% of a well’s cost is due to water handling
issues(1)
• Two methods of saltwater disposal transportation:
• Trucking – Historical approach(2)
• Pipeline – E&P Preferred approach(3)
• Industry standard regulated processes require the
subsurface injection of wastewater deep into the earth
to protect the environment
• A typical facility includes infrastructure for unload,
filtration, treatment, storage (water, oil), pumps,
disposal wells and associated equipment
• Water is received, treated and stored prior to injection
into the well at depths of at least 4,000’ back into the
earth where the water originated
• Residual oil is recovered and sold prior to re-
injection.

• Per our Omnibus Agreement, the 49.9% owners previously absorbed additional costs (“subsidies”) benefiting
CELP, including:
1) Incremental interest expense for credit facility use
2) 100% of the non-cash amortization fees associated with the CELP credit facility that supports TIR
3) 100% of the cash non-use fees on the credit facility
• The net impact is that CELP – through it’s 50.1% interest – enjoyed ~ 58% of TIR’s distributable cash flow
(“DCF”) prior to the acquisition of the remaining 49.9% interest (and 42% DCF) in February 2015.
