About This Seaport
Dow Chemical's largest site and one of the biggest LNG export terminals in the United States sit on the Freeport Harbor Channel, defining this diversified Texas Gulf port (US FPO). Moving over 37 million tons of cargo a year, Freeport ranks among the nation's leaders in crude oil and natural-gas-liquids exports. For forwarders, the Velasco Terminal handles containers — expanded to four super-post-panamax cranes in 2024, with around 116,000 TEU that year — while RoRo carriers such as Grimaldi, Höegh, Hyundai Glovis and NYK move vehicles and machinery alongside chemicals, energy products and breakbulk. Road and rail link the port inland toward Houston and the wider Texas industrial belt. Customs is handled by US CBP. Houston and Corpus Christi are the obvious alternatives for capacity or different services.
