科珀斯克里斯蒂港位于德克萨斯州休斯顿西南 208 英里处，于 1926 年开始运营。该港口是土地所有者、土地开发商和业主，地理位置优越，靠近德克萨斯州主要石油和天然气生产地。

近年来中游投资的增加提高了码头能力以及入境管道和存储能力。该港口现在是美国最大的能源出口门户，二叠纪盆地尤其是主要受益者。

2022 年，该港口有 7,736 艘船舶停靠，贡献了积极的经济影响，包括州税和地方税收，而 2021 年有 6,843 艘船舶停靠。

在国际上，该港口在 2022 年成为第三大石油出口国，吞吐量为 1.94 MMbbl/d，仅次于沙特阿拉伯的 Ras Tanura 港（6.5 MMbbl/d）和伊拉克巴士拉石油码头（3.45 MMbbl/d）。

虽然该港口的过去主要与石油和天然气有关，但未来可再生能源的重要性将日益增强。

四个风电场（arbor Wind、Midway 和 Papalote Creek I 和 II）靠近港口，拥有 248 台涡轮机，总额定容量为 551.8 兆瓦。

未来，该港口还计划提供集中式碳捕集利用和封存（CCUS）方案，同时租赁港口拥有的孔隙空间用于CO ₂注入和封存。

随着世纪的临近，该港口的使命仍然很简单：继续成为美洲的能源港口。

The Port of Corpus Christi, located 208 miles southwest of Houston, Texas, began operations in 1926. The port is a landowner, land developer and landlord, and strategically located near major Texas oil and gas production.

Increased midstream investments in recent years have improved dock capacity, as well as inbound pipe and storage capacity. The port is now the U.S.’ largest energy export gateway, with the Permian Basin in particular a key beneficiary.

The port boasted 7,736 vessel calls in 2022, contributing positive economic impacts, including state and local taxes, compared to 6,843 vessel calls in 2021.

Internationally, the port boasted the third largest oil exports in 2022 when it moved 1.94 MMbbl/d, only trailing the Ras Tanura port in Saudi Arabia (6.5 MMbbl/d) and the Basrah Oil Terminal in Iraq (3.45 MMbbl/d).

And while the port’s past has mainly been tied to oil and gas, its future will increasingly see renewables grow in importance.

Four wind parks—Harbor Wind, Midway and Papalote Creek I and II—are in close proximity to the port and have 248 turbines with a total rated capacity of 551.8 megawatts.

And in the future, the port also aims to offer centralized carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) options while also leasing port-owned pore space for CO₂ injection and storage.

As the century mark approaches, the port’s mission is still simple: to remain the energy port of the Americas.
