Pursuant to its commitment under the lease agreement, the Port of Corpus Christi Authority is obliged to design and construct a new oil dock, named Oil Dock 20.
The oil dock facility will cater to the needs of Mexico’s transportation system by rail with at least two to three unit trains per week.
When the Dos Aguilas pipeline becomes operational, more volume is expected at the Oil Dock 20, which is also planning to export crude oil to international markets.
With a 36 mile, 47ft deep channel, the Port of Corpus Christi is located on the western Gulf of Mexico.
