Houston export terminal operator Moda Midstream has completed a project to add 10 million barrels of crude oil storage at its Port of Corpus Christi facility. Companies operating at the Port of Corpus Christi are adding 17 million barrels of crude oil storage at time when record low commodity prices have producers desperate to find a place to store their barrels until market conditions improve.
The Port of Corpus Christi will have 17 million barrels of additional oil storage by August as record low commodity prices have producers desperate to find a place to store their crude until prices rise.
In total, six companies are adding more than 20 million barrels of new oil storage over the next year, CEO Sean Strawbridge said. The port's existing 40 million barrels of crude storage is about 65 percent full.
