The initial phase of the proposed Port Arthur Marine Terminal will provide storage and transportation assistance in the import and export of crude oil, liquid petroleum gas and related products. The terminal will serve the Gulf Coast region’s refineries, pipelines and storage facilities.
The project’s first phase, involving the construction of storage tanks and multi-ship berthing facilities, will require about 120 of the 2,900 acres that Sempra Energy owns near Port Arthur.
That project, which will be capable of storing and regasifying up to three billion cubic feet of natural gas per day, will begin construction upon obtaining sufficient LNG supply and capacity agreements.
