PORT CORPUS CHRISTI
Welcome to the Port of the Lone Star State. Port Corpus Christi has been generating business and jobs in South Texas for 87 years. Strategically located on the western Gulf of Mexico, Port Corpus Christi is the fifth largest port in the United States in total tonnage. The Port provides a straight, 45’ deep channel and quick access to the Gulf of Mexico and the entire United States inland waterway system. The Port delivers outstanding access to overland transportation, with on-site and direct connections to three Class-I railroads, BNSF, KCS and UP, and direct, vessel-to-rail discharge capabilities through Corpus Christi Rail Terminal. The Joe Fulton International Trade Corridor, now fully operational, provides direct, non-congested access to Interstate 37 and Highway 181. Port Corpus Christi is ideally positioned for Global Trade in the South Texas Region.
Port Corpus Christi has some notable projects on the horizon. The U.S. Army Corp of Engineers has authorized the Port to deepen the Corpus Christi Ship Channel to 52 feet. However, before diving into a project of that scope, Port Corpus Christi is aiming to strengthen infrastructure. We received federal funding to expand the La Quinta Channel by 1.4 miles to an authorized depth of 45’. The Port is moving forward with the development of the La Quinta Trade Gateway, a 1,100-acre marine terminal designed to accommodate a multi-modal cargo facility. Recognizing the growth of breakbulk and project cargoes, the Port identified the necessity to improve rail capabilities and has embarked on a $45 million rail improvement project. The engineering design for the construction of a new rail yard adjacent to the Viola Turning Basin to better serve its customers is in progress. All these efforts open the gate for an increase in trade for the South Texas Region.
As leaders in environmental awareness, Port Corpus Christi adopted an environmental management system (EMS) in 2004. The Port’s EMS is ISO 14001 certified and initiatives include an anti-idling campaign, a port-wide recycling program, and an annual Gulf Ports Environmental Summit to share ideas on common environmental issues faced by all Gulf Ports.
The Port offers more than 125 acres of open storage and fabrication sites, heavy lift capabilities, more than 295,000 sq. ft. of covered dockside storage as well as a cold storage facility. Port Corpus Christi operates Foreign Trade Zone #122, encompassing 25,000 acres with four active, general-purpose zones and 14 subzones.
With Outstanding infrastructure. Strategic location. Extraordinary management and staff, I welcome you to our Port. The Port of the Lone Star StateTM your Global Connection through and from Texas.

PORT OF VICTORIA
The Port turning basin area is situated on over 2,000 acres and is served by rail and four-lane divided highways. POV Dock No. 1 is a 350-foot transit dock. A new lighting system allows for 24-hour cargo operations. There are 20 mooring sites, 17,000 square feet of shed space and over 3 acres of improved ground storage areas available. A 7,300 square foot office and storage building is ready for occupancy. POV Dock No. 2 is an 800-foot string pier available for docking sites and barge repair. Major products transferred are liquid and dry bulk and general and project cargos.
The Port has recently formed an Industrial Park with multi-modal access. The Park is located within a Foreign Trade Zone and a Texas Enterprise Zone. The Port has the ability to “build to suit” and tailor a package specific to customer facility and transportation needs.
A major cost savings was realized by including the basin expansion with the completion of the widening and deepening of the Canal. In addition to almost doubling the size of the harbor, a 400 foot x 150-foot barge slip was added. These enhancements will offer our customers greater safety and efficiency.
The Port of Victoria is a center for the chemical, construction and steel fabrication and agribusiness industries offering access to all transportation modes.
